Re: Hot Toys: Ellen Ripley - Alien (Updated with new prototype HS)

Actually, back then it was a fortune. I mean, it was over a hundred bucks. It shattered the $99 barrier!

Agreed. Back then the $100 barrier was the "Neutral Zone" that everyone said they would never cross into...

I got my Big Chap in a trade, a long time ago. I know it was a good trade because I can't even remember what figure I traded away for it.

And for the record, the Big Chap, even with any inaccuracies, is still a beautiful figure with amazing shelf presence.

I can't believe it's coming up on one year since I saw this figure at SDCC, and it still hasn't even gone up for Pre Order! It has to happen right?

Batman returns all over again

Except Batman is up for preorder. Ripley is not.

All this time.. I hope they've given Jonesy a make over.

Don't worry, they almost certainly haven't.

And they'll make him out of disintegrating rubber.

nah they won't bother spending money on real rubber. they'll use cheap rubber-like crap instead

He'll be a sculpted pencil eraser.

Poor little Jonesy.

Re: Hot Toys: Ellen Ripley - Alien (Updated with new prototype HS)

They'll probably make Jonesy from material off-cuts from the Chewbacca figure.

or from left-over rubber from V1 of ED-209... oh wait, that was used for V2 of ED-209.

Jonesy will be made from crap that will eat through the goddamn hull.

Seems like Ripley is not in the 2015-16 catalog...

OSR: Hot Toys Catalog 2015 - 2016 / By Jay Chiongbian Young

Probably going to be second half of 2016 before we see anything, though seeing something at SDCC would be encouraging.

Wouldn't read too much into that catalog, it's by HT Japan/Toy Sapiens and not definitive. For example, it has older DX figures but not Arkham Bats, Star-Lord or Princess Leia.

Re: Hot Toys: Ellen Ripley - Alien (Updated with new prototype HS)

I wouldn't worry too much about Ripley not being in the catalogue. It's HT's track record that scares me most.

Re: Hot Toys: Ellen Ripley - Alien (Updated with new prototype HS)

I just dont get it! like it came out of nowhere " Ripley " figures, they showed us several versions, then it just stopped. Very strange.

 

[The Giamontan]

Re: Hot Toys: Ellen Ripley - Alien (Updated with new prototype HS)

Yes, the tease of Ripley with absolutely no talk about it from HT is frustrating to say the least. I have a few other choice words for it but we'll just stick with frustration.

She'll show up. Returns Batman did after all those years, so will Ripley.

So will Rorschach. Sorry, couldn't help it.
