NECA Gets Vasquez


"Private First Class Jenette Vasquez[1] was a Smartgun operator with the United States Colonial Marine Corps, part of 2nd Battalion Bravo Team.[8] She was the sister of Carmen Vasquez. Jenette was a member of the combat unit deployed to LV-426 aboard the USS Sulaco in 2179, to investigate the sudden loss of contact with the colony of Hadley's Hope. She was subsequently involved in combating the Xenomorph infestation at the colony".-Wikipedia

NECA finally revealed their Vasquez‬ action figure that has over 30 points of articulation. ‬This figure from 1986's Aliens movie has a nice look to it, I'm happy that they did a great job with Vasquez's weapon.

Jenette Goldstein, who portrayed Private Vasquez, I think would approve of this action figure recreation of her character. Vasquez is outfitted with an M56 Smartgun, customized with the word "ADIOS" (Goodbye) painted on the right side of the handle. On her chest plate armor she's painted the phrase "El riesgo siempre vive", roughly translated as "The risk always lives". NECA even threw in Vasquez's Red Bandana, no detail is spared. If you can find this figure, I suggest you get it as I don't think they will stay on the shelves long.
