Aliens is a 1986 science fiction movie written and directed by James Cameron. It is the sequel to the 1979 science fiction horror film Alien and the second film in the Alien franchise. Aliens was released on July 18, 1986, to critical acclaim. Sigourney Weaver's performance garnered consistent praise along with those of Bill Paxton and Jenette Goldstein.The film received several awards and nominations, including an Academy Award nomination for Best Actress for Weaver at a time when the science-fiction genre was generally overlooked. Aliens earned arround $150 million during its theatrical run, one of the highest-grossing films of 1986 worldwide. Aliens is now considered among the greatest films of the 1980s and among the best science fiction, action, and sequel films ever made, arguably equal to or better than Alien.

Presented here is an original screen-used, forced perspective alien egg prop constructed of heavy, hollow cast resin. It has been affixed to a black-painted 5 in (12.7 cm) wooden base for display. Exhibiting age and minor paint chipping and rubbing.
