The Xenomorph Egg

Eggs are created inside the alien Queen and exit through a tube from her extended abdomen. Once ejected, they stand upright on their own. Alien eggs are approximately 2.5 feet tall with a leathery, translucent surface. Built to ensure procreation, they can survive for an indeterminate amount of time in various environments. The eggs are "intelligent," possessing an ability to detect the proximity of a potential host through sound and/or movement. Once a host has wandered into range, four petals on the top of the egg open and release the Facehugger.

Weaknesses: Extremely flammable.
