Elkridge, MD (January 28, 2005) - The Alien Space Jockey - what is it? An ancient astronomer? A fossilized Warrior at the helm of an intergalactic cannon? The guard to the mysterious egg farm beneath?

While no one seems to know for sure, the one thing that is certain is that the Space Jockey has captured the imaginations of millions, and is one of the most recognizable images in the Alien Quadrilogy! And now, Alien aficionados can display a miniature Space Jockey in the comfort of their own homes, as Palisades Direct presents its first ever Alien exclusive product - the Alien Space Jockey Micro Statue.

The Alien Space Jockey Micro Statue measures in at 5 inches tall and over 7 inches long, and still captures all of the pride and glory of the original sculpt... just on a smaller scale! This reduced size special edition is perfect for those who want one to display one in a limited space or who missed out on the full-size version. And what's more, with a limited production run of only 2,500 pieces worldwide, this statue is sure to sell out quickly!

There is no limit to how many Space Jockey Micro Statues that may be purchased. For more information, or to purchase an Alien Space Jockey Micro Statue, please visit www.PalisadesDirectStore.com.
