Why are the androids in ALIENS and ALIEN³ designed after the original Weyland from AVP, but not in any of the other movies?

I believe Lance Henriksen assumed the role of android in Aliens and did a character as Weyland in AVP. Aliens and Alien vs predator universe are not related by any means.

He also showed up at the end of Alien III, is he supposed to be the likeness of the Weyland image or is this a coincidence? – BB Stacker Dec 14 '12 at 16:26
AVP came after alien 3 right? my answer remains the same. – Dredd Dec 14 '12 at 16:46
I don't think Lance's character in AVP was named Weyland, but I could be wrong. Need to watch it again. – Mathew Foscarini Dec 14 '12 at 17:49
Yes, he is the First version of Mr. Weyland. Charles Bishop, See it at: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alien_vs._Predator_(film) – BB Stacker Dec 14 '12 at 18:14
