Soon after the availability of the blue card set of five Wave 3 ALIEN ReAction figures at New York Comic Con 2018, Super7 released their entire range of Wave 3 ALIEN ReAction figures in a set of three boxes. Each box contained three items apiece, adding four additional items to Wave 3 thus expanding the product line to include a total of nine items.
This box is the third of three items. It’s contents contains one new sculpt item in the form of Lambert in Nostromo crew attire. Also included in this package is the bloodied version of the regular sliding tongue version of the Alien figure. All three items have also been released on blue cards.
Three figures comprise this set:
Dallas.
Includes flamethrower accessory.
Lambert.
Regular Bloodied Alien.
Additional Notes.
– There is no accessories included with the Lambert figure.
– This colorway variant of Dallas is intended to be a more screen accurate version of the character.
– This blood spattered variant of the Alien is the regular sliding tongue version of the figure.
Notes on the box design.
– Other than identifying box contents and box set numbers, all design elements and features, logos and dates are common and exactly alike across all three boxes in this wave of figures.
– Barcodes are specific to each box.
– The colour theme of the window box is inspired by cloth badges appearing on garments worn by the Nostromo crew as seen in the movie.
– The Pump Demi font is used on the package design. This font appears throughout the movie, it notably appearing on clothing and elsewhere (Space suit name tags, etc.).
– The figures are marked as “EXCLUSIVE” on the back of the box but this feature is inconsistent with the actual release:
- The ‘bloodied’ Ash with removable head is the only character included in this set of Wave 3 figures to actually not appear elsewhere on blue card or in any other packaging format, making this version of the only truly unique – and genuinely exclusive – character in this set of nine figures.
- Dallas and the Bloodied Alien were each released at a later date on blue card, rendering their exclusive status as noted on the back of this box set as inaccurate.
- At the time of the release of this set, this colorway Ripley item was also not previously available. Nonetheless, unlike Dallas and The Alien, she possesses no “EXCLUSIVE” status on the back of the box yet all three figures were released at a later date on blue card.
