This weekend audiences can finally return to the Alien universe with the release of the highly anticipated Alien: Covenant. The trailers have us excited for a lot of action, adventure, and a fair amount of Xenomorph mayhem (Xenomayhem?)–but we have to say we’re equally psyched for all the sweet, sweet collectibles headed to stores. Particularly, the addition of this Neomorph to the Alien: Covenant family of Funkos!
These creatures are new to the Alien film universe and will be encountered by the crew of the USCSS Covenant in the new film. Even in adorable Funko form they share quite a few characteristics with the xenomorphs we all know and pee our pants over, but these lighter-skinned (is it skin? Or are they like beetles?) creatures are obviously the indoor kids of the Alien family as they clearly haven’t been out in the sun.
The Neomorphs also come with a tiny toddler version, which is quite possibly the best thing Funko has done in a while. Considering Funko makes larger versions of characters (like the six inch Stay Puft Marshmallow Man or Overwatch‘s Winston) has us crossing our fingers that they continue to market all sorts of smaller creatures in Pop! form. We’d fork over so much money for an itty–bitty chestburster. Even more for the Spaceballs version!
Oh man! We know we’re off track here but how awesome would Funko-fied versions of Mel Brooks films be!?
Have you checked out the rest of the Alien: Covenant Pop! Funkos? Which one is your favorite? Let’s discuss in the comments below!
