We'd bet that on most folks' short list of Alien Resurrection's redeeming qualities you'd most likely find the film's production design. The Betty in particular stands out for not only it's unique look, but also for existing as a physical minature in the real world.

Apparently there once was a movie called Alien 3. While some of you may have heard of, or perhaps even seen, this wrhirling fecal tornado of a film - filmmaker Vincent Ward recently posted an illustrated take on his version of the film on his site here.

Sideshow is proud to partner with KNB EFX GROUP to bring you the Predators Collectible line from the 2010 film release. Each prop replica is an exact full-scale reproduction of the original on-screen prop, as created by KNB.

The Falconer Predator Mask Prop Replica is an incredible addition to any Predator legacy display, an outstanding beginning to Sideshow's new Predators collectible line.

IGN.com has just confirmed a ton of new details on the upcoming Alien Anthology Blu-ray box set.

You've heard the rumblings and rumors, but now we can officially confirm it: The Alien Anthology is coming to Blu-ray domestically on Oct. 26. The U.K. will get it one day earlier on Oct. 25 and Australia on Nov. 3. Read on for more about the all-new bonus material and Fox's special plans for Comic-Con.

Pretty much since the launch of the Blu-ray format, fans have been wondering when Fox might bring the kickass Alien Quadrilogy box set to high definition. It has consistently made lists of most wanted Blu-rays, including IGN's own. But now the wait for the announcement is over, and the real waiting begins.

According to Fox, the four Alien films have been "reinvigorated for an intense Blu-ray high-definition viewing experience." It will take advantage of Blu-ray technology by incorporating the MU-TH-UR Mode, an interactive feature that lets you access the special features on all six discs and provides an index of all available content. And what does that content include? About 60 hours of special features and over 12,000 images, including material from the legendary early '90s LaserDisc release, the "Legacy" release and, of course, the Quadrilogy.

There will also be new, previously unreleased content, such as original screen tests of Sigourney Weaver prior to filming the original Alien, unseen deleted scenes, the previously unseen original cut of "Wreckage and Rage: The Making of Alien3" and more.

The Alien Anthology will be available for a suggested retail price of $139.99 U.S.

As for the studio's Comic-Con plans, Fox Home Entertainment will have a display in their booth featuring a life-size replica of the Nostromo's hibernation chamber as seen in Alien. Fans will actually be able to get inside the pods and have their picture taken (underwear-clad Sigourney Weaver not included). Fox provided this mock-up to give us an idea of what the display will look like (although there will only be four pods in the final version). If you can't make it to Comic-Con in person, check back with IGN after next Wednesday night (July 21), when we'll have a chance to see it ourselves and post our impressions.

Continue to the original IGN article for a breakdown of the special features, disc by disc, as well as a look at the awesome box art and special limited-edition packaging.

Before we get into the massive amounts of bonus material, check out the packaging for this set (and try not to drool all over your keyboard).

Sideshow is proud to partner with KNB EFX GROUP to bring you the Predators Collectible line from the 2010 film release. Each piece is individually painted and finished, each with its own unique quality and detail that is the trademark of a handcrafted Sideshow Collectibles product. Presenting a scaled full-figure study of the newly developed Predator and dog-like alien creature designs for the film by KNB, The Tracker Predator Maquette is an incredible and detailed addition to any Predator legacy display.

Click here to check out Alien Horde for the iPhone!

You are the last surviving member of a UNMC rescue party. Your whole squad murdered by hostile alien life forms. Surrounded, they are attacking you from all sides. The only option is to fight, take as many of them with you as you can.

Turn the marine with the on screen controls, the accelerometer or the compass to get an alien in your sights. Wait for the scanner to lock on, press shoot and boom! No more alien Your shotgun shells are your life, run out and you won't survive the next close encounter. When an alien gets too close you use up one shell defending yourself. Every 500 points you get an extra shell, if you can survive that long Alien Horde is a frantic arcade shooter. The aim, kill as many aliens as you can before they kill you. Every time you kill an alien the rest get smarter, quicker and more cunning making the game progressively harder as the assault goes on. Compare your scores with our online database to see if you have what it takes to become the best of the best.

You can play in both portrait and landscape mode, including being able to switch between the two modes in game. Alien Horde utilizes the full capabilities of your hardware to bring a unique set of controls for your iPhone or iPod Touch. If you have a compass the game will let you simulate the real world actions of the Alien Horde monition sensor, although we recommend this is used only for fun or in combination with the on screen controls. We don't want you getting dizzy playing the game!

You can also use the accelerometer to play the game, tilting the device left or right to move your marine and aim at the hostiles. Finally there are on screen buttons in both portrait and landscape mode which allow you to turn, shoot, mute and pause the game. Quit the game and Alien Horde will save your progress allowing you to pick up the fight exactly where you left off.

Good luck solider, you'll need it!

SD Studios has started a joint-venture project with Stephan in Germany for creating a run of electronic Locator Tubes from everyone's favorite film... Aliens. These will feature sound and light functions identical to that seen in the film. Please note however, that it won't actually "track" anything using micro-sonar... we can't exceed the world's currently available technology/ size limitations.

Click here to check out a video of the prototype electronics model.

Here is a brief rundown of the electronics functions:

Switch position 3 = press and release

The electronics have two, push-button functions which are selectable through the end cap knob:

Switch position 1 = press and hold

-Press and hold the push button to count down until you release it
-Press the push button momentarily to count down in 1.0m increments (so you can set a specific range like "35.00").

This option is designed for using the prop in your hand. You can secretly press the push-button while walking - it will look like you are counting down distance to the target.

Switch position 2 = off

-The locator won¹t do anything. It is off. What did you expect?

Switch position 3 = press and release

-Press the push button momentarily to starting the count down automatically
-Hold the push button while it is counting down 1.0m for pre-setting (like above)

This option is designed for using the tube taped to your PR. Just start the auto-count-down and move forward with the rifle- ready to blast aliens (or Newt...someone needs to do it, right?).

Counter and beeping sound will start at "99.9" and beep tone will go faster as it counts down.

They have used the same beeping interval as you can see in the movie at "49.4", "22.8" and "00.0"

After reaching "0.00", you will hear a continuous "beep" tone.

Toggling the tube off will reset the beep tone and counter to "99.9"

To celebrate the 30th anniversary of the theatrical release of ALIEN, Hollywood Collectibles Group is proud to present this lifesize bust of one of the most iconic creatures in science-fiction history.

Created from the same molds that were used to create the original creature and accurately painted usng an original Alien costume for reference, this is a must have for any Alien fan and a spectacular addition to your Alien collectionl.

The long awaited Aliens Pulse Rifle from Hollywood Collectibles Group is now available for pre-order. Please click the banner link at left or above to help us out and to find out more!

To create the definitive Pulse Rifle we obtained one of the few surviving Hero Pulse Rifles, meticulously measured and photographed every detail and then painstakingly recreated this exactly. The result is the most accurate replica ever produced, a must have for any Aliens fan! Features include:

Aluminum Shrouds the same dimensions as the original Hero Pulse Rifle.
Metal retractable shoulder stock
Metal barrel vent
Removable magazine
Light up LED counter display sets at 95 when the magazine is inserted
Moving Grenade Launcher pump handle
Themed wall display plaque

There is a rare, one-of-a-kind Predator mask on sale at Monsters in Motion here! While you're there, you may want to check out this Pulse Rilfe replica as well!

First PredatorS, and now there's musings of a Ridley Scott produced A L I E N prequel over at IESB!

Now even more info and pics of Rebellion's THIRD Aliens vs. Predator can be found at Kotaku here!

Most exciting is that the Predator class is now no longer just a Marine that can turn invisible. More in line with the species' abilities in the movies, you can now jump and glide between ledges and branches. Think Zelda's Hookshot, or the zero-G sequences in Dead Space, only it's now more suitable for you to be gurgling "motherfucker" every time you do it.

The aliens have also been tweaked, and will now move more slowly than they did the original PC game (which is fine by me, as they were too fast in that game). They will, however, retain the ability to scale any surface, meaning you can still run all over the walls and roof.

The game is also being pitched squarely at an adult audience. A report describes the Predator's signature move being one where he picks up a marine, snaps his neck, then tears his head off, which is followed by his spinal column. Once off, the head will continue to blink and gasp, and...well, yes, you get the idea.

Details of a new Predator film have been posted at Ain't It Cool here! See what they did there? With the added "S" at the end...

Dark Horse's all-new relaunch of their Aliens comic series starts with issue # available at Westfield Comics.

A group of wildcat planetary prospectors plant their flag on a distant new world, rich in land, resources. . and mystery. Within this seemingly uninhabited planet lies the greatest archaeological discovery in history, an ancient, abandoned complex of impossible proportions carved deep within the living rock, a mind-numbing labyrinth of passages, ramps, bridges, and galleries that seems to extend limitlessly. But as the exploration of the leviathan dead city proceeds deeper and deeper, the members of the team slowly begin to lose their grip on reality. But madness gives way to fear as the explorers begin to disappear one by one. Something else lives within the necropolis, a faceless horror as deadly and merciless as space itself, a lethal terror that has waited centuries to awake. . and destroy. At long last, Dark Horse Comics heralds the return of the heavyweight champion of modern science-fiction/horror, Aliens! Aliens #1 is the first act in the relaunch of all three classic Dark Horse/Fox comics series. The release of Aliens #1 will coincide with the thirtieth anniversary of the Ridley Scott-helmed film masterpiece, Alien, and will be preceded by an Aliens/Predator special for Free Comic Book Day! Featuring the top-flight creative team of writer John Arcudi (The Mask, B.P.R.D., Doom Patrol), penciller Zach Howard (Sean of the Dead, Outer Orbit), and inker Mark Irwin (X-Men: Age of Apocalypse, Batman, Amazing Spider-Man).FC, 32 pages Miniseries.

The other is any review WE could do would PALE to the incredible pro reviews put up by Michael Crawford at his incredible Captain Toy site. So with that said, it gives us grat honor to send you to this link to his incredible Hot Toys Dallas and Kane review (which really ARE incredible btw).

improving on the old Master Replicas Predator Spear, Sideshow has teamed up with Amalgamated Dynamics to bring out an all-new extended version. Click on the link to the left to check it out and pre-order yours todays.

Sideshow is proud to partner with Amalgamated Dynamics Inc (ADI) to bring you the Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem Prop Replica line, featuring some of the most advanced weaponry and armor ever conceived for the Predator arsenal. Each prop replica is an exact 1:1 reproduction of the original screen used prop, as created by ADI. The Predator Spear Prop Replica is cast in heavy-duty polystone with fiberglass and metal elements, hand-finished and hand-painted to exacting standards, then individually hand-numbered.

The Yautjas species was first encountered in Fox's 1987 release Predator, hunting humans for sport in Central America. The alien warriors use highly advanced weapons and technologies and live by a code of honor, marking themselves in the blood of their kill. Continuing the story of these Predators' ongoing war with the Xenomorph alien species is the 2007 film Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem. The two species go head to head using a small, rural town as the battlefield.

From highly advanced technologies to basic weapons and tools, the Predator arsenal includes an impressive range of weapons and armor for effectively stalking prey and engaging in hand-to-hand combat. The Predator spear is able to slice or stab through layers of flesh with a single blow and can withstand the acidic blood of the Xenomorph alien.
