Halcyon's Alien "Space Jockey"


The Alien Derelict Pilot, a.k.a. "Space Jockey," seemed to want to just keep being worked on. In the end this vinyl kit turned into a diorama of the scene in Alien where Kane begins his trip down the rabbit hole into the derelict's hold where he finds the egg chamber. I modified the kit to have the acid-melted hole in the dais, re-posed the figures, and added a scratchbuilt tripod and the expedition tackle that can be seen in some book and magazine stills from the movie.
