Excellent work there!been wanting to revisit this figure because I never understood why I was never really into it as I wanted this done for so long. I think its because I just didn't really like the result. Glad I waited a few years to get better at hiring. Aside from the full repaint and re hair I made her taller and ai chromed the Chap's teeth and nails with real chrome plating.
Sorry for the necropost, I was wondering where you got the Weyland Yutani diorama?I think it was 16A. Ripley custom was done back in 2019. I remember I used some pale medium breast option and had to trim down the breast further..
It's called "kotobukiya MECHANICAL CHAIN BASE"
Thanks a lot for sharing! Did you obtain Weyland Yutani decals from elsewhere?
Oh, that's just Photoshop overlay - I use that Diorama for many Sci-fi figures.
Ah yes you are right! I did not take a close enough look at it.
From the teases at a handful of SDCC to finally a official preorder to inhand I can’t remember how many years I had to wait. But when I finally had her in hand it was very underwhelming. I was the “Generic Face” period for Hot Toys. Commando, Sleepy Hollow, Bruce Banner etc. Anyways I sold and used the proceeds for something better!!
Agreed. I knew I had to have ‘79 Ripley representation, so I splurged to get it.
They teased that a few years ago but nothing came of it. There isn't a lot of rhyme or reason to when HT decides to dip into older films, so it's just as likely as anything else. But I'm not holding my breath. More likely they'll do characters from the new film, unfortunately.
Yes I’ve got a folder of all those teases. Some times i go in there and have a little cry lol.
Yeah, I’ve seen their Prometheus tease in 2014 as well.
