I was talking about the outfit. Naru's has a little more going on.

Rain... Cailee... yes. She's cute, to say the least.

Ow.. yeah, I agree for the outfit.
But look at that bigass gun, Wor-Gar.. and those shoes.. and that base!
 
I thought it was a good movie, definitely not Alien or Aliens level good, but decent enough to watch a few times over.
It was an okay movie, almost good. It just had to much memberberries with their lines and the whole racist robot subplot....was eye rolling.

It was much better than that Predator trash Prey, that people think was good.

I very much think Hot Toys should do Aliens and Alien again instead of anything else from Romulus. We need marines gosh darn it and more Ripleys.
 
Man of Hot Collectibles said she and Andy were both on the way.
I'd rather have David, or a new Ripley, or Hudson, or Hicks, or Bishop.... I wish they'd just go all out on their alien and Predator lines again, it seems like so many hot toys collectors are craving it.

Dutch too. And most of his team.

I have no idea what you mean about "racist robot subplot" but I agree about there being way too many references to the original. That moment where he said THAT line was SO cringe-worthy. I also found Romulus and Prey overrated, in that I don't think they were "the best movies since the originals" like so many people did.

I prefer Prometheus to Romulus, and Covenant is maybe on the same level as Romulus. Both good. But they should definitely make figures from Alien and Aliens if they are gonna make Romulus figures. Newer doesn't equal more sales, Alien and Aliens are iconic.
 
i though people love the hbo show and the casts?

Oh I do personally but a part of me still thinks Bella was massively miscast as Ellie, she still knocks it out mind. Probably doesn’t help my Ellie fan cast for years was Kaitlyn Dever lol.

Never had any issues with Pedro as Joel at all.

I haven't seen anything regarding Alien Romulus, not promos, cast, etc.
I thought that's a Daisy Ridley sculpt :)

both looks totally different. i think ellies face more suitable for that big girl in LOU2.

maybe their acting compensated but idk i never watched.
 
Man of Hot Collectibles quoted his source again, saying HT are "working on Andy" and "potentially the Offspring", and "Ellen Ripley from Aliens...my source told me that they're also working on Alien Queen." Also the "power loader".
 
This needs to get made. Rain’s design is simple yet so cool
I find it extremely plain and boring. lol
Romulus however, was one of the best Alien's to come out in a long time though. So I'm a bit undecided if I would pick this figure up.
Hot Toys tend to go for around $400 in Canada, so for me it'll depend on the included accessories.

A lot of the draw for this figure is the sculpt and the actress herself.

The outfit is plain, apart from the highlight of wearing a Weyland-Yutani T-shirt.

Her jeans don't seem to fit quite right yet, and remind me of those on their Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Ghost Rider. In fact they don't look even finished, so may have been rushed just to get her on display.

However, they have put work into the sculpt and hair, so I can see them improving the outfit between now and release.


The actual costumes from the film:

This would be a good release too, and another use for the sculpt:

I also think they could make it without resorting to rubber as with the Alien figures.

I hope she comes with the puffer jacket and backpack from the start of the movie, if nothing else but to fill out the accessories and brighten up what is a pretty plain outfit (even if said outfit makes sense in the universe and situation Rain unknowingly walks into [like an idiot]).

If I were a betting man, that’s what we will get along with a face hugger
 
I have no problem with the figure, as is. But yes, I highly expect them to add a bunch of accessories for the actual release.
 
This is a nice surprise, I watched Romulus in theatres and had a fun time with it. Rain and Andy were the standouts alongside the thrilling set pieces and gorgeous practical effects. The only real issues I had with the film were the poor callbacks, you know which ones.

I think the likeness is strong in these pictures but damn I'll have to echo what others said, I can't stop seeing Ellie from The Last of Us video games too. It's crazy that we live in a world where Cailee auditioned for that role and somehow lost it to Bella Ramsey, who is just horribly miscast. The tradeoff is we'll hopefully get Cailee leading the sequels to Romulus, Rain has a lot of potential as a character and could be on track to become modern day Ripley.

Speaking of Ellie. Any new updates on the LIM last of us figures? We are starving
