Following the massive success of their Star Wars action figures, Kenner marketed an Alien toy for Christmas 1979. However, instead of the three to four inch size used for the Star Wars figure, the Alien figure was eighteen inches, and was not paired with figures of the Nostromo crew. While faithful to the Giger design and featuring a hinged jaw, the figure was highly breakable. Due to parental complaints, Kenner pulled the action figure. The toy has since become a collector's item, with mint boxed versions going for as much as $1,000.
