This is Hot Toys it will come out eventually you just gotta be patient. The Marvel and Star wars license comes first for them.

So all we have to do is wait until marvel and Star Wars movies stop getting made? Cool, shouldn't be long now. LOL

Star Wars and Marvel is their priority, other licenses will still come out inbetween those releases just at a much slower pace than we want.

Nobody knows. Which means we have to find Nobody and make him talk !

Reading that I was thinking the same thing

Hell Disneey will be saturating Star Wars as much as Marvel now with their movie every year plan. That'll mean soon enough Hot Toys will be exclusively Marvel & Star Wars (Pretty much like that already with maybe a few figures a year that aren't Disney)

Wish Enterbay would return to movie figures (or another company come along) and buy all the various licenses that Hot Toys hold hostage.

Why does Hot Toys even get to hold licenses for franchises without making products.

Both will be released next year, to coincide with Aliens' 25th anniversary.

Yep, next year. they'll definitely make this IMO.

Gotta get through the Marvel SW and DC waves but we'll get this, prolly a late '17 release.

I hope that ends up being the case.

If it gets to three years after the prototype was first shown, then I will officially give up hope.

They've got movies every six months, when one movie has it's obligatory HT lineup exhausted the next movies line-up starts and round and round it goes.

I could've sworn someone on SSF wrote that HT doesn't care about stuff like that.

I'm fairly confident that, yes, HT will eventually get around to this. What I truly fear is that it'll be a half-assed effort.

Yeah, that's the biggest thing to fear here. I don't think that they'd make a prototype power loader and two figures and negotiate with Sigourney Weaver for her likeness rights just to give up on the project - they can, however, not give a **** about it and produce a piece of crap - which would be a tragedy.

The power loader wasn't really a prototype. I'm pretty sure it was the same as the previous release with a better paint job.

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

I don't know, was it?

Even if the power loader was just a repaint, they definitely would have spent a lot of time making the Ripley figures and going after Sigourney Weaver's likeness rights. I'd be shocked if they canned the whole project.

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

I'm hoping they remake a few marines too, but that's pushing it.

Color me pessimistic, but I don't think this is happening.

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

This is going to be one of those releases that people have been waiting for for years and just pop up! Unfortunately it won't look like her (i.e. Ichabod Crane)

Yeah, let's just get this ONE done before we worry about peripherals that stand probably zero chance of being revisited.
