aaron.percivalThey originally designed the facehugger to be bigger. It would have covered Kane's entire head, not just his face. (It also would have been longer.) Perhaps the original dimensions were meant to match the size of the Space Jockey.
With the size of the SJ the Face-Huggers we've seen look far to small to get hold of the face of the SJ
Anway, the actual size works fine. I think the hugger is big enough to cover the SJ's mouth and nose. (It doesn't have to cover the eyes.)
Also, even if the legs aren't long enough for a good grip on the SJ's large head, it doesn't matter. The tail is long enough to wrap around the jockey's neck and cause unconsciousness. Once the jockey falls over, the hugger doesn't need its legs to get a good grip; it can just lie on the jockey's face.
Plus, the hugger's legs or underside probably has suckers or something.
The only question I have is whether the hugger's implantation tube seems long enough for the SJ's throat.
