In june NECA will do Ellen Ripley 1979 in versions with jumpsuit/flamethrower and white spacesuit.

End 2015 they plan releasing Ellen Ripley 1986 fully armed for Newts rescue and a torn apart Bishop. So both perfect additions for your Queen.
Showed my gf your response and she is pretty giddy about the Ellen Ripley. Should make for an interesting time watching her try to organize a makeshift diorama with the Aliens Queen.

And I agree about your comparison with Sideshow. There is a level of quality that each company is known for but at some point, the price and craftsmanship does plateau.
