Hadleys Hope Pins and Buttons
Description: Hadley's Hope was a human terraforming, research[1] and mining[2] colony that was established on LV-426 in 2157.[3] The settlement was co-financed by the Extrasolar Colonization Administration and the Weyland-Yutani Corporation, and by 2179 maintained a constant population of 158 colonists. It was subject to a major Xenomorph infestation that ultimately all but destroyed the complex.
Description: Weyland-Yutani Corporation, often shortened to Weyland-Yutani and commonly referred to as Wey-Yu or simply "The Company", was a large British-Japanese multinational conglomerate. It was founded in 2099 by the merger of Weyland Corp and Yutani Corporation. Weyland-Yutani was primarily a technology supplier, manufacturing synthetics, starships and computers for a wide range of industrial and commercial clients, making them a household name. The company also had numerous non-manufacturing interests; it possessed extensive assets in interplanetary shipping and transport, and operated human colonies outside the solar system through the Extrasolar Colonization Administration.
Description: USS Sulaco, registration 513792/CTA, was a Conestoga-class troop transport ship in service with the United States Colonial Marine Corps, assigned to 2nd Battalion Bravo Team. It was most notably used in the investigation of the Hadley's Hope colony on Acheron (LV-426) in 2179, when it was manned by Lieutenant Scott Gorman's combat unit of Colonial Marines.
Description: The main ship from Alien Romulus is not called Romulus, deviating from the convention set up by Prometheus and Alien Covenant. The ship is named Corbelan IV, while Romulus is the biolab part of a space station designated as Renaissance. While the movie takes place in the year 2142 (between Alien and Aliens), the ship is more modern the USCSS Nostromo from 2122, but obviously less advanced than the warship USS Sulaco from the year 2179.
Description: Rebecca Jorden, known to most people as "Newt", was the sole survivor from the Hadley's Hope settlement on Acheron following a Xenomorph infestation at the colony. She was the daughter of Russ and Anne Jorden and younger sister to Timmy Jorden. The United States Colonial Marine Corps unit which was dispatched to the moon in 2179 discovered her hiding in the colony's ventilation system. She subsequently became close to Ellen Ripley, who later risked her own life to rescue Newt from the Xenomorph Hive.
Description: Bug Stomper was the name of the UD-4L Cheyenne dropship aboard the USS Sulaco. Piloted by Corporal Colette Ferro, it was notably involved in the initial USCM operation on LV-426 in 2179 by the Marines to deploy ground forces to the Hadley's Hope colony. My version of this classic nose dropship artwork from Aliens is very much based on the original in the film, though slightly tweaked to clean up a few oddities.
Description: There's not many places to get a cold beer and something to eat in the Hadley's Hope settlement on LV-426. Ok, there's just one place and that is the Last Exit Bar & Grill, but like any good bar, they have souvenir t-shirts available. This shirt design is a one of the more unique artifacts from the Alien franchise, mainly because the actual bar was never explored on screen, but now you can say that you've been there or at least have people asking... This vintage version of the Last Exit Bar & Grill shirt features a well worn screen printed look that's full of distressed style.
Description: "We're in the pipe, 5 by 5." With those iconic words, representatives of the Weyland-Yutani Corp. backed by a group of Colonial Marines descended onto the surface of LV-426 to try and ascertain what had happened to the terraforming colonists of the Hadley's Hope settlement. Spoiler alert, it didn't end well...
