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!

Where can I find out which names have been taken?
I still have some work to do figuring out the animatronics for the tongue being fit in my Monsterroom kit, but I need to name him too.

Thanks for the comments. I'm currently working on how to get the mouth open and closed and figuring out the tongue mech. I could use suggestions if anyone knows how. I was using a brake cable for the opening and closing of the mouth but the tongue has been tough. I've been brainstorming for months and trying different things. I rigged up a mech like Henrik Pilerud but the problem is fitting it all inside the Monsterroom head. I was also looking at high speed linear actuators but they are too long to fit too. Uggg!
What have others done?

I am using 2 servos. The tongue is spring loaded so 1 servo pulls it back then releases it.
