1/6 Hot Toys Alien: Romulus - Rain Carradine

borgified · Friday at 5:23 PM

So Man of Collectables “legit insider scoop” of rumoured releases is a misinformation spreader for now. Now it’s considered as “work in progress” as they might be in the drawing boards or scrapped (I did read that particular thread and just got me more disinterested).

It took over FIVE YEARS for the Solo Snow Trooper to be officially solicited after tease and I’m feeling that if Rain (Callie Spaney) gets very delayed and pushed back further, there are going to be collectors that are loosing interest in getting her after over 5/6 years or more (not to mention one 1:12 company has lost more existing customers after so many delays and ZERO updates on their Social Pages about why so character has been pushed back for specific reasons).

Idk why some are putting in a lot of stock into what Man of Misinformation is spreading and spewing. Those yahoos don’t know sh*t.

If we get more Alien sequels with Rain taking over the Ripley role of the franchise I can see people wanting Rain in the collection if not that specific version.

Very few of my favourite franchises actually get figures so il take whatever I can get and really hope this figure goes up for order.

If it all goes south he could always rebrand as Man of Hot Air.

There's another thread where people are putting a lot of faith in what that guy says and I just cant with people who claim to have insider info, they then use that to gain popularity and use weekly meetings to beg for donations with the promise of releasing more information. It's a scam.

He's doing another livestream in 30 minutes. Can't wait to see what he says about why the Predator didn't go up for preorder.

HyperDrive · Friday at 7:35 PM

Those guys love to listen to themselves talk for hours on end, spewing horse crap lol. Good grief.

All sixth scale bloggers love the sound of their own voices. If they didn't, they wouldn't have a youtube channel.

I’ll be shocked and quite annoyed if this Rain doesn’t go up for order tbh

I think those who provide actual “reviews” and have an objective purpose are fine. To the point. But those who sit around and live-stream for hours on end and don’t even bring anything of valuable content is bizarre to me lol

I think that they are attention seeking and want people to hear them babble about nonsense.

Come to my mind are:
- Fab
- Mr Mom
- Brother Cousin
- Man of Hot Col

Sadly, this is the only thing that I can think about when it comes to Rain being teased by Hot Toys. Still wouldn’t say no to Shaw or David (even though I know that ship has well and truly sailed.) Anyone else?

Seeing that reminded me of their tease for the Valerian figures:

I can't even remember the film, or the comic for that matter, but I liked the look of Laureline in her suit.

You can't find those "Coming Soon" pages directly on Sideshow's site or find the characters by searching, but searching for them via Google show that they are still there, but somehow hidden:

https://www.sideshow.com/whats-new/major-valerian-sixth-scale-figure

https://www.sideshow.com/whats-new/laureline-sixth-scale-figure

The six and a half year tease for the Range Trooper is a case in point that nothing's ever truly gone, though it very likely is.

Asta · 2024-12-22T05:11:04-0500

Funny that the Valerian pages can still be found via external search, but the Prometheus page has been exterminated, though we are talking about a decade old tease.

There's a remnant of it on ToysDaily with the Sideshow logo:

The only other image referring to 1/6, besides the one posted by Itzthabat, is this one I found on someone's Flickr account:

Yeah a Prometheus figure would be nice. I would collect figures from any Alien movie tbf

Johnny Utah · 2024-12-22T06:29:57-0500

I'd get David for sure. No Fassy figure from HT yet is nuts, after all his X-Men films too.

HyperDrive · 2024-12-22T06:39:22-0500

Prometheus was my intro to the IP without even knowing what Alien was or the connection, so you betcha I’d love Prometheus representation.

For me I’d want:

• David and Shaw (both suited and clean)
• Shaw (dusty, battle damage) w/ axe and decapitated David head w/ bag
• The Engineer

HyperDrive · 2024-12-22T13:12:11-0500

Enjoying a little Alien movie marathon this past weekend, and I’m currently watching Romulus lol.

I need Rain. Need David and Shaw. Need Aliens Ripley with pulse rifle (and Power Loader) 2.0. Last but not least, Big Chap 2.0 of course. I don’t think I need anyone from Covenant, Alien3, or Resurrection.
