The discussion of the Alien series of films and the props used in them is the aim, but if it's got Big Bugs and Big Guns, then they are welcome too!

Someone likely knows more details, but I believe the smaller pack was used in another film production.
And, the silver canister with connecting arm, from the larger pack, went up for auction, a while back.

Found the auction.
I remembered the canister/ arm, but it was the full smaller pack.

The scene was filmed at the end of the shoot so they reused armour painted yellow. We know Crowe's leg armour was one set used as it went to auction a few years back with flecks of yellow paint still on it.

The robot arm is an Armatron that was also sold in Tandy in the UK. I have one of these!

Now actually having a look at the above auction, it is the larger pack that is shown, or what little remains of it.
