===Action figures=== During the 1980s and 1990s, Halcyon Models released seventeen ''Alien'' model kits, beginning in 1987, as well as a ''Predator 2'' model kit in 1994.{{Citation needed|date=November 2019}} In 1994, [[Kenner]] released a collection of [[action figure]]s known as ''Aliens vs. Predator''. This followed the two initial series of ''[[Aliens (film)|Aliens]]'' that were based on an [[animated television series|animated series]], ''Operation: Aliens'', that was never broadcast. As such, the inclusion of Predator is often considered the 3rd and 4th series of the ''Aliens'' line. This collection includes several Aliens, many of which feature built-in attack features, and Predators, which include removable masks and battle weapons such as spears and missile launchers. The figures generally possess 5 points of articulation, and some include a mini Dark Horse comic book. While the collection as a whole is known as ''Aliens vs. Predator'', the two character types have their own card art that only features the character at hand. An exception would be the ''Aliens vs. Predator'' 2-pack. Since human space marines were included in the initial ''Aliens'' line, the Predator was marketed as an alternative enemy to the Aliens. A figure cardback reads: "The stage is set for the universe's two most ferocious enemies. It's the gruesome and evil Aliens against the big-game hunter Predator. Who will win... the beast or the hunter? Can the Predator stop the evil Aliens before the galaxy is destroyed?!?!?!"<ref>[http://www.dukenostalgia.com/Kscope/Predator/PR_index.html Duke Nostalgia's Predators Page] {{webarchive |url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080214122859/http://www.dukenostalgia.com/Kscope/Predator/PR_index.html |date=February 14, 2008 }} DukeNostalgia.com.

More figures, including a female Predator and an Alien/Predator/Smash Mason 3-pack, were designed for this series but never released as part of the line. Six sets of Aliens and Predator [[Micro Machines]] were also planned by [[Galoob]] in 1995 but never released. This would have also included the LV-426/Outer World Station Action Fleet Playset. Thanks in part to the research of toy collectors, many photos of these unreleased toys and prototypes have shown up online in recent years.<ref>Cawiezel, Marc H.
