Comments: In 1974, an elite group of scientists leads the Search for Extra Terrestrial Intelligence (SETI), sending a transmission that outlines human DNA into the reaches of outer space. Years later, SETI gets an answer: an extraterrestrial DNA sequence and instructions for how to splice it with human DNA. The result is Sil, a female hybrid who looks like a normal human but is able to morph into her alien form - a biped creature with tentacles on her shoulders and back. Sil develops at an alarming rate, and her regenerative abilities, incredible strength and heightened intelligence are a threat to the SETI scientists. When Sil escapes the facility, a government team is assembled to track and destroy her before she can fulfill her desperate urge to mate with a human male.
The Species Maquette is cast in high-quality polystone, and features all the fearsome details that went into designing the full-sized creature in the film, from the mind of legendary creature designer H. R. Giger. Each piece is hand-cast, hand-finished and hand-painted to exacting standards, then individually hand-numbered for authenticity. Crouched for attack and ready to spring into action, the Species Maquette is the perfect addition to any display.
The Species Maquette went up for pre-order on September 1st, 2008.
