You ran out of ideas on that one, eh, Vin? I bet you sat there and thought, 'how can we knock this one out quickly and make him look Alien? Hmm...Ah, fuck it, I know what - I'll give him an extra pair of arms. That'll do. And a pair swords. Because they'll be really useful in a fight against people armed with guns...'

If I remember correctly, Traveller used to have a training option for this as part of the chatacter generation phase as it was safer to use swords rather than guns onboard space ships.
As for the figure, I like it and would buy it if I had use.
It's probably derivative, although I don't know from what, but it's a good sculpt. Bit crude on the detail side, but fine as an overall piece. Would buy it if I had a need for it.
