Fantastic, eerily real-looking prototype model of "Aliens'" Bishop, the android that with the Colonial Marines saves the lives of Ripley, Hicks, and Newt, but later gets torn in half by an Alien Queen. Bishop also appears briefly in "Alien 3", and dies in that film. The role was played by actor Lance Henriksen, a close friend of the film's director James Cameron, and his likeness was used to make this life-sized fiberglass and resin model of a reclining Bishop from the torso up crafted from Henrikson's actual features by Vic Simpson, the film's art department's construction manager. Beautifully molded and detailed by hand, then bathed in a pewter/copper veneer finish. We guarantee you'll keep looking at the face to see if Bishop's eyes will open. Obtained from the original artist by Charlie Sheen.
