I did receive mine today. Overall, not a bad figure and I think it's a decent representation, especially considering how dated the original Hot Toys Aliens Ripley figure is. I did have one real nuisance with the figure, and that was that they put "RIPLEY" instead of Adidas on the sneakers. That's understandable (licensing and all that), but the really lazy part is that the left sneaker was mirrored to create the right sneaker, and all of the writing is reversed. So it says YELPIR (with backwards letters) in three places on the right sneaker. Sure, there are other inaccuracies, but that was just lazy.

Kind of sad , didn't realize until you mentioned it.

Gonna try to make some water decals or just do some sanding and repaint the logo by hand

Very cool pics.
Seems to be a cool release in the end.
So the body is tiny from what understand?
How does it compare to HT Alien Ripley's ?
Not a big fan of Phicen, any alternative with only seamless arms?
Pop toys maybe?

I think the stock body they are using is a Pop toys, hence the ugly creases when the arms are bent?
Say what you will about Phicen, but they don’t have issues like that as aren’t hollow unlike Pop toys.
From experience, but I could be totally making this up…

unfortunatly a miss for this release. I got the BD Terminator and was really suprised how good it turned out, but this? for over $200 , nahh ...sorry. Let's hope for HT to get back to this franchise asap.

Hot Toys has issues with the alien and aliens IP. Doubtful they'll do another anytime soon.

She's really not too bad. Body needs the tbleague s17 body, and it does need a bit of work.

Made her taller, put Reebok logos on her shoes, repainted some things, modified the body a bit. Not much.

I originally used a Sarah Connor body which is perfect, but, I didn't know the arms couldn't swivel side to side. I tried to put the rifles in her arms to pose, and the left arm snapped. I took it apart to attempt a repair, and the "skeleton" is plastic at the swivel area, very frail. And due to age, it was probably brittle. But the Connor body would never be able to pose properly because of this, though again, it looks perfect for museum pose.

I have a phicen s17 on the way, but the wrists on those things...

Oh I also switched out her harness belt to an accurate one. It's not supposed to be in the pants belts loops.

Sorry to hear about thar Connor body not working out, its hard to find a good body and the old ones usually have issues.

I have the Phicen S19 body on my HT Aliens Ripley but its bigger than the Nostromo version. I hope there's a seamless body that matches Nostromo Ripley. Has anyone else found a close match?

Yeah I even tried to swap out the skeleton, but the silicone casting is specifically made to fit the skeleton on the body used. So it bulges in certain areas. I'm about to say screw it and just use the worldbox female body with the slimmer thighs. Don't really care about exposed joints.

I don't know what that person used, but you just get ankle extenders off eBay. Use the shortest one. That's what I did. You'll need to Krazy glue them to the stock pegs though.

You know, the more I see this the better I think it looks. But I don't think I'd really want one without an Alien to pair it with.

It's an underrated figure right now. Best to grab it, if only for the parts at least.

Great idea

Mine finally arrived minutes ago

Here it's Ellen Riplay fresh out of the box , no crazy mods or anything like that... lol well yes I did use extenders for the ankles but other than that it's the stock figure

And yes it really does need a phicen body, cause the stock one it's pretty low quality and short , overall even without the mods the figure it's fantastic.

Probably gonna start the weathering , repaint and adjustments this weekend
