Ridley Scott's Alien (1979) wasn't just groundbreaking for its depiction of the titular xenomorph creature, but also the characterization of its "space trucker" protagonists. Key to that were their well-worn Nostromo uniforms, which we get to examine at Propstore. Adam admires the various patches, piping trim, and zipper closures, including details he's never seen before. Plus, a few special effects props from Aliens!
