1/6 1/6 Hot Toys: Ellen Ripley - Alien - Collectible Figure

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

Just bring her, open the pre-order, and let me close my eyes and go back to 1979, to a movie house that has long since been torn down, so I can pee in my pants in fright again. That's all I ask. Is that too much to ask?

That sounds great... what was it like having no knowledge of the chestburster scene? I didn't have that luxury unfortunately

Rooted hair... rubber arms. It is what it is.
After collecting for years.. I fully understand that no figure is nor will be perfect. I personally am now at the point were customized/ nodded figures will be what it takes to have a truly spectacular piece. Based on the proto we have seen....
Just give it to us already!!
I'll do or pay somebody to do the rest.

It was frightening and so violent. Had no idea why he was thrashing around so much and then Bam, Chestburster sitting in the hole in Kane's chest while he sits there twitching. These are what nightmares are made of. I was 7.

I've watched Alien so many times that it's hard for me to remember that specific moment.
But I do remember how the final act scared the crap out of me! I remember that every time I saw a space movie after that, I kept fearing the alien would jump out at someone out of nowhere...

If the rooted hair ends up looking anything like AoU Widow's then HT may as well not even bother.

Haven't paid much attention to that one, that bad huh?

Its pretty crappy, i did tons of **** to it to try to get it how i want and in the end i think i just made it look worse. I wish i had the money back now. The only reason i didnt get the WS version is i wanted a AoU setup.

Oh sorry - I thought YFB was talking about Scarlet Witch for some reason, don't mind me.

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

Scarlet witch might be the last and only other rooted hair figure i buy from ht. That's assuming her hair turns out decent. Fortunately olsen had mostly straight hair so hopefully out of the box it isnt hard to pose.

I'd go the extra mile for Julie Newmar & Lynda Carter if HT did the dolly hair well for those.

Sorry guys I haven't been able to follow through all the pages since the beginning. Is there a price for this yet? Is it even out? I'd really want to buy it. I'm having an Alien shopping spree next week and would love to get this. I already preordered the power loader but I'd love this version of Ripley.

There has been nothing to report on this for quite some time. Which power loader did you order exactly, the old Hot Toys, the new Neca or something else?

Well all right then. Wasn't even considering that beauty.

I believe the Hollywood Power Loader is 33" tall, somewhere close to 1/4 scale, and these Hot Toys ones are 1/6 scale. You probably know that but just if you think you could eventually use them together...

It's about 80lbs for what my husband tells me (correct me if wrong) so I'm hoping it's a pretty good and detailed loader. When I get it I'll post pics.[emoji120][emoji4]

I'm sure it's much more than just 'pretty good'!

I guess this new Ellen Ripley by Hot Toys will not ever happen, huh? I might as well pick up the Iminine figure.

 

[cmiller99]

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

It will probably happen eventually... maybe in a year.

That's just me going by the Batman Returns example though, I really don't know.

It will go the way of Prometheus and many others.

Eh the hair would have sucked anyway, i would much rather have sculpted hair.
