Yautja Predators farmed xenomorphs on Earth to be hunted as part of their rite of passage for young hunters. This full-size alien creature display, with all original components designed by Academy Award-winning special effects group Amalgamated Dynamics, Inc. (ADI), consists of a foam-latex domed headpiece hand-painted black and gray, and a matching foam-latex bodysuit. The bodysuit features armatured arms; a nylon lining secured with a zip closure; resin fingernails; snap-button joints on the arm and leg pieces; four dorsal tubes molded around exposed copper wire; and a long screw-on airbrushed latex tail molded around a flexible metal-pipe core. While its biomechanical detailing harkens back to H.R. Giger's original creature design for Ridley Scott's Alien, this costume's spikes and head are specific to the xenomorphs in AVP. The costume is mounted to an airbrushed-silver wooden base for display purposes. It is in fair overall condition with substantial wear and tear from use in filming, including deteriorating and exposed foam on the shoulder, ankle, and chest, and other signs of wear to the latex throughout. Dimensions: 36" x 33" x 98" (91.5 cm x 84 cm x 249 cm) Special shipping required; see notice in the Buyer's Guide. Estimate: $10,000 - 15,000
