Hey, do you like Aliens? Do you like to pay to be scared and confused randomly? Well my friend, I've found just the thing you've been looking for!

Geek Stuff 4 U has just started taking pre-orders for the new USB Alien figure by Cube Japan. The fun little "device" is SD styled, about 5 inches tall, and of course has a USB cable coming out of its back end. Why you ask? To power its action feature. In typical Alien fashion, the creature's inner mouth randomly pops out when plugged in. In non-typical fashion it lights up while doing so. Creepy? Yep. Awesome? Definitely. In fact the only downside to this little bugger (other than nightmares, of course) is his 72 dollar price tag. Ouch. That price hurts almost as much as an alien fetus bursting out of my chest. Almost.

Are any of you out there planning on picking this up? Personally I'm still holding out for a USB-powered rapping sandwich. Hey, It could happen. Never underestimate Japan's weirdness.
