Re: Hot Toys: Ellen Ripley - Alien

I do hope this is a DX. Very nice change from Batman and Terminator DX releases.
 
Re: Hot Toys: Ellen Ripley - Alien

I would assume they're simply different prototypes, and my guess is the newer one is the one they plan on going with. At least, I hope so. I don't see HT giving her the DX treatment, doing google eyes or extra heads.
 
Re: Hot Toys: Ellen Ripley - Alien

I don't even need the other head. This is the one I will use. Perfect.

Re: Hot Toys: Ellen Ripley - Alien

That's perfect. This figure is now complete.
 
Re: Hot Toys: Ellen Ripley - Alien

Wow that is spot on. Is this a different head than they initially used on Wednesday/Thursday or is it futzing/lighting?

This is not at SDCC. This is the one being displayed at the other convention. The Loader there also has an alternate face on it.

Re: Hot Toys: Ellen Ripley - Alien

Hell yeah, that's it! Whew! Was really worried we'd have finally gotten a ALIEN Ripley only to be given a crummy look-a-like head. This is clearly Weaver and looks spot-on :rock :rock

So Sigourney finally allowed her image to be used with guns after all these years?

I have no interest in the actually Aliens as figures, but would love Ripley.

I saw NECA also had one, so something must have loosened up. Or maybe since it's a flamethrower it's not as big of a deal? :huh

Would have loved to have bumped naughties with her back then. Of course she would have been thrown in jail.

Took me a second :lol

Man, that is incredible... put it in a box and send it over HT :rock :rock

The first head must just be a placeholder w/a generic likeness. Maybe if the good sculpt isn't approved we'll get stuck with it, but if the good one is approved the first one will probably get scrapped.
 
Re: Hot Toys: Ellen Ripley - Alien (Updated with new prototype HS)

Ah thanks guys. Looks great. Now fix up Jonesy. :lol
 
Re: Hot Toys: Ellen Ripley - Alien (Updated with new prototype HS)

Now the likeness is in the league of the Batman DX15, Robo BD and Marty. :yess:
 
Re: Hot Toys: Ellen Ripley - Alien (Updated with new prototype HS)

Assuming she isn't just bare bones with the Power Loader, she should come with the blue shirt, jacket, and flame thrower/pulse rifle at least.
 
Re: Hot Toys: Ellen Ripley - Alien (Updated with new prototype HS)

Really nice upgrade. I liked the first one fine, but I hope this new one is the one we get. The open mouth is great ... really captures Weaver's signature determined underbite.

Yeah, I was somewhat concerned she'd just be barebones with the powerloader. I just can't see Hot Toys throwing money away like that. Separate releases I think in the end.
