Way back in 2014, Super7 released an egg chamber play set for their 3.75 inch ALIEN ReAction figure line. During the intervening nine years since its release, this item (there were two variants) has become rare, sought after and very expensive. It’s been disappointing to see this was the only ALIEN play set Super7 released. Some fans I know have been wanting a Nostromo play set for years. Unfortunately, Super7 no long produces their ALIEN line of toys. So, it’s unrealistic to expect one to ever be forthcoming from them. This dire problem needs to be rectified. It must be remedied! Luckily, we have been rescued!Baptiste Coudert has provided us with all we need as a solution. Well, maybe not everything; but the essential printable components to make a Nostromo play set for yourself is now a reality. Here’s a link to a set of downloadable images on flickr you can print out and assemble to make your own Nostromo play set. Oh yeah. You’ll need an old shoe box to mount the printed components inside. The truly great thing about this improvised play set is manifold. Not only will you be constructively re-using an old shoe box to use as a display for reliving great action setups including having captain Dallas being dragged away in the airshafts by the Alien but there are other benefits, too. You will also be able to put the lid back on the box and use it to stow your figures in a safe place.

Now that’s genius! Now you won’t have to buy one of those expensive Super7 ALIEN carry cases to stow your figures, either. That makes the Nostromo play set a fantastic all round money saver and every home should have one, especially if you have an abundance of old shoe boxes lying around the place and been wondering what on Earth you were going to do with them.

Go grab and empty shoe box and download and print the Nostromo play set files right now! You’ll be glad you did. Thank you Baptiste for implementing this wonderful idea.
