Spoilers below

At the end of the film, Kay after being injected with the pathogen, gives birth to a strange acidic alien egg, from which emerges a humanoid abomination that’s referred to as the Offspring on IMDb. Thoughts on it?

When I first saw it, it reminded me of the mutants from Pandorum (2009), with a hint of Pluto from The Hills Have Eyes (1977). It also resembled a hybrid of a Neomorph and an Engineer. It was pretty damn tall too, maybe 9 feet tall or more. When Rain found it consuming Kay, its tail was growing in the process.

A Xeno monster with long hair, LOL! I can't take it seriously.

A very Neomorph-looking Offspring design.

The engineer-likeliness is from the human DNA

Offspring trading cards, shared by Fede.

As I suspected on my first viewing, the Offspring has 6 digits.

Some more concept art by Dane Hallett of the Offspring depicts its skin falling off and turning into a Xenomorph, just like Mike mentioned in the rough cut he saw.

That reminds me of the Gibson Alien 3 Dark Horse Comic xenomorph transformation just a lot more creepier

Xenomorphs tend to grow really fast, the baby form was essentially it's chestburster phase.
