ALIEN - POP SUPER N° 1769 - The Runner (Black light)

This collectable vinyl figurine depicts the terrifying and agile quadrupedal xenomorph, known as the Runner, featuring a special fluorescent finish. Produced by Funko as part of its Pop! Super (Movies) collection, this figurine faithfully reproduces the creature’s silhouette whilst altering its original colours. This model, with its retro and psychedelic hues, is ideal for adding a visually striking touch of science fiction to your display, reacting intensely under ultraviolet light.

The Runner Alien (or Dog Alien) character appears in the third instalment of the famous science-fiction and horror film series *Alien*, released in cinemas in 1992. The plot is set on the prison planet Fiorina 161 and follows Ellen Ripley’s desperate struggle against a new form of parasitic organism. Unlike traditional xenomorphs born from human hosts, the Runner develops inside an animal (a dog or a cow, depending on the edit), thereby inheriting extraordinary agility, a quadrupedal posture and lightning-fast movement. This specific figurine pays homage to the creature’s terrifying biology by applying a black light finish. Its contrasting neon colours highlight the details of its elongated skull, acrobatic tail and retractable jaw, creating a striking effect for fans of horror films and pop culture.
