The sci-fi and horror genres have experienced plenty of overlap through the many years of filmdom, but never with such gripping results as Ridley Scott's unparalleled creature feature "Alien". Recall this completely captivating space thriller with this 1979 Topps Alien unopened wax box. While the treasured 1977 "Star Wars: A New Hope" film is credited with starting a sci-fi renaissance, the ground-breaking Alien blockbuster went in decidedly different direction. Playing strong female lead Ellen Ripley, Sigourney Weaver was a standout among an amazing ensemble cast. Ripley's life or death struggle with the most frightening monster in movie history had us clutching the armrests of our multi-plex seats in sheer terror, as we sat mesmerized before the shocking events unfolding on the big screen. Featuring photo cards from the movie, this tightly wrapped 36-count box shows a clean surface, vibrant colors, and arresting graphics, which include the legend "In space no one can you scream".
The entire box comes shrink-wrapped by Baseball Card Exchange, owned by Steve Hart, the foremost expert on unopened material. Opening Bid $100.
