THE TRANSLUCENT ALIEN

[The Alien design] was originally decided that the creature would have translucent rather than dark skin. “One should be able to see the skeleton, the blood circulatory system, the organs etc,” Giger wrote in his diary. “Scott would actually like the whole Alien transparent, in the way I’ve made my biomechanoids.”

I had heard about this years ago and though it was a neat idea (although the one that made it onto the screen is perfect). A couple years back I bought the Revoltech Alien CLEAR VARIANT just to have the Translucent Aline "represented" on my shelf.
