ALIENS (1986) - Doug Beswick Collection: Set of Xenomorph Queen Puppet Components - A set of Xenomorph Queen puppet components from the production of James Cameron's Aliens. Ellen Ripley (Sigourney Weaver) fought the alien Queen in an exosuit cargo-loader. The Queen was brought to life with a combination of puppetry, model miniatures, and live-action photography.

These black foam test castings for the Queen puppet's biomechanical alien arms were created by Doug Beswick, an effects artist well-known for his stop-motion animation and creature effects work who served as the film's mechanical armature designer. Both exhibit grime from storage and flaking to the foam from age. Dimensions: (each) 9.5" x 1" x 1" (24.25 cm x 2.5 cm x 2.5 cm)

Estimate: $600 - 1,200
