An image was just tweeted out for #facehuggerfriday revealing our first look at the upcoming NECA Alien vs Predator Kenner inspired 2 pack. This will be an update to the 1994 Kenner AVP 2 pack that kick started their Aliens and Predator toy lines. The 2 pack is expected to release later this year. Keep reading to see the full image!

Earlier today, NECA tweeted out a picture showing the size comparison of one of their upcoming Alien VS Predator figures with their older Predator figures. The AVP Predators were much taller than the ones from the first or second movies, so this makes sense. The NECA AVP Predator will be 100% new tooling, as they are meant to be taller and bulkier, and they will be doing more than one. The NECA AVP Predator figure should be out sometime over the Summer.

I know it had mixed reactions, but I love the 2010 Aliens Vs. Predator video game. One of my favorite characters in the game was Corporal Teresa “Tequila” Aquila. She was smart, strong, and wasn’t afraid to tackle with some xenos. I love the character, and I love the idea of expanding the ranks, so I just had to customize her. Tequila is made using the upper body (and upper legs) from a NECA Portal 2 Chell figure, with the lower legs, armor, and pulse rifle from a NECA Aliens Corporal Hicks. I pored over several screenshots of the Tequila character from the Aliens Vs. Predator video game to make sure I got this custom down as accurately as possible. She had several personal details on her armor in the game that I replicated here, including the name “Louis” on her chest, and a decal that says “I ‘heart’ guns”. Tequila also has a U.S.M.C. tattoo, and a series of star tattoos. I weathered the armor and decals to look realistic, and painted her pants to look like what a Colonial Marine would wear. I had to so some tailoring on the armor to get it to fit right, and then I added some straps, gave her a shoulder lamp and pulse rifle, and now Corporal Tequila is ready to go bug stomping!
