Aliens: Colonial Marines Collector's Edition Officially Hugs Your Face

Originally spied back in January of this year, SEGA has now officially revealed the Aliens: Colonial Marines Collector's Edition, which bundles the game with a resin figurine of a powerloader wrestling a xenomorph, a USCM Dossier containing a Mission Brief, USS Sephora Schematic, Recruitment Card, LV-426 Recon Photo, USCM Iron-on Badges and a USCM Graduation Certificate, and a bunch of DLC.

The DLC includes four playable movie characters - Cpl. Hicks, Sgt. Apone, Pvt. Hudson and Pvt. Drake - Ripley's Flamethrower, additional Marine customisation items, the USCM Acadamy Firing Range level, a Phase Plasma Rifle and some Sonic Electronic Ball Breakers. This is all crammed into a Collector's Edition 'xeno hive' box.

If the Collector's Edition all seems a bit much, then a pre-order from GameStop will net you the four movie characters, Ripley's Flamethrower and the additional Marine customisation items. You can check it all out in the images below. Aliens: Colonial Marines is out on February 12th, 2013.

The Powerloader figurine looks pretty sweet. I think I'll wait for reviews before I go for this. Don't want a repeat of AVP...

yeah it would of been sweeter if insted of the powerloader they included the egg thing with the face hugger inside, as just placing that anywhere even in your own would make me scared :)
