They showed off Returns Batman again. I think Gordon and Blake were there, too.

Someone on Facebook mentioned the biggest problem with releasing 1/6 Ripley figure for pre order is Sigourney Weaver not signing off on her likeness....any truth to that? I don't understand why they showed her last year yet haven't put her up for PO?

I thought her likeness rights were cleared recently. Isn't that why NECA was able to release figures of Ripley?

She has a reputation for not signing off, but she did on NECA's figures. I'm assuming there was some sort of assurance that it would be okay for HT as well, which is why they showed so many Ripley figures last summer. Hope she didn't change her mind.
 
Re: Hot Toys: Ellen Ripley - Alien (Updated with new prototype HS)

Oh man I hope so too that she didn't change her mind. I need her in my collection!

I also assumed that HT had licensing, but come to think of it didn't it say "pending licensor approval" on the card next to her? So it wasn't 100% cleared at the time that they were showing it. ****, I don't think we're going to see this figure.

She took one look at NECA's "best effort" and changed her mind.

Rooted hair doesn't bother me...sad to not see anything Alien related from Hot Toys this year however.
 
Re: Hot Toys: Ellen Ripley - Alien (Updated with new prototype HS)

I've been avoiding this thread because it's too depressing. I guess these figures were too good to be true.
 
Re: Hot Toys: Ellen Ripley - Alien (Updated with new prototype HS)

looking at Maria's pictures, there is room for big improvements on Ripley.
 
Re: Hot Toys: Ellen Ripley - Alien (Updated with new prototype HS)

crap but just because it's not at sdcc there could still be a chance...
