 | | During the production of Alien in 1979, the toy company Kenner, having already flourished with its phenomenally successful Star Wars lines of toys, elected to jump at the opportunity to manufacture merchandise for this yet to be finished movie. |
 | | Oddly enough, the R-rating and the fact that the movie was not aimed at children didn't seem to stop Kenner in the late 80's, following the release of the 1986 movie Aliens. |
 | | Thankfully for Alien fans, the franchise shows no signs of letting up in the near future, with a new movie in the works, new merchandise, and a growing fan base. |
