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

Im confident its gonna be released this year :)

i'm putting my bets on a release in 2017 to fall in line with alien covenant.

Face facts guys we're probably never going to see this figure made by hot toys. Since the prototype was displayed at comic con 2 years ago its obvious hot toys business model has moved even further into the marvel and dc comics universe with the addition of star wars now. It just means its all at the cost of the 80's franchises hot toys used to be so keen on producing. I suppose thats just the way it goes as we move further and further away in time from the 80's.

Maybe about 6 or 7 years ago when they were focused on predator and terminator there might have been a chance of this being made but now even with the anniversary coming up and the film being 30 years old and fading out of the collective consciousness of the mass public fast now i just don't think ht are interested in making these kind of figures anymore. I think the prototypes we seen 2 years ago were probably hot toys last effort at the alien/aliens franchise.

Lucky enough to get the custom figure. I kind of liked the figure especially with rooted hair. Gives it more realism....... I have a second custom head I bought off a member. Thinking I will give it a shave if I find a suitable wig to put on it......

So... I'm stuck with 'THAT' Ripley and Pin broken Power Loader...?
No updated Marines??:gah:
 
Re: Hot Toys: Ellen Ripley - Alien (Updated with new prototype HS)

Oh, I wouldn't say they'll never be made. Just don't expect any POs or updates anytime soon. Nor would I expect any of the protos to resurface at SDCC.

Basically don't expect them ever. It might happen, but probably not.
 
Re: Hot Toys: Ellen Ripley - Alien (Updated with new prototype HS)

Wouldn't it make sense to hold on the release of this figure to tie into the hype machine of Alien:Covenant? Hot Toys has played the Star Wars license timing expertly with ANH and TFA products hitting up every five minutes for the past year.

IF they are still planning this figure then look for it in 2017.

Maybe, but it would have made sense to release Prometheus figures when Prometheus came out or Terminator Genisys figures when Terminator Genisys came out and neither of those things occurred.
those figures were so cool, so priceless, so awaited for that HT stuff couldn't part with them!

SW is the rare exception because Howard actually gives a **** about SW.

If we don't get figures by 2017, I'll join the chorus pronouncing the death of Ripley.

If she doesn't happen, there goes my hopes for Hicks and Hudson 2.0
 
Re: Hot Toys: Ellen Ripley - Alien (Updated with new prototype HS)

Would be hilarious if Howard had Ripley on display at SDCC16, only to disappear once again...

In space, no one can hear you scream...
 
Re: Hot Toys: Ellen Ripley - Alien (Updated with new prototype HS)

Oh I'd take an Ellen Ripley if Hot Toys made one :)
