The Xenomorth Queen is inspired by the designs of H.R. Tiger and devised by Aliens director James Cameron and effects artist Stan Winston. The Alien Queen made her film debut in the 1986 classic Aliens film, where Ripley destroys her nest, and this statue is based on the Queen’s likeness from the film.

The Xenomorph Queen stands at slightly over 10″ as the tail stands as the tallest part of the statue. The Queen is extremely detailed and stands in a pose as she was featured in the film. The statue stands on a themed base that features some sculpted textures. The head sculpt includes an open mouth with sharp teeth, and she is sculpted with her head looking down, which gives you a good look at the top of the head and it’s long and thin shaped appearance. There are some skeletal structures on the top of the head, which can also be seen on the back side of the head. She includes four arms, compared to the Xenomorph having two, and the spine sticks up on the back as well as the bone structures sculpted throughout the tail. The tail is sculpted in several curls, and includes a pointy end that is capable of piercing through flesh. The legs attach to the base using pegs on the bottoms of the feet, and there are holes on the base for them to be inserting into. Every bit of detail and likeness comes together nicely and the statue includes a great likeness to the film.

The paint applications really bring out the detail, and she is painted in a return black, and brown wash throughout the sculpt. Usually, the Queen is offered in either blue or red, but these colors make her really stand out, and with the glossy shine, she looks amazing detailed.

Overall, the Queen is an excellent statue, and Aliens fans will definitely want to add her to their collection. Just remember that she is an EXTREMELY fragile piece, and can be easily broken.
