Rub it from orbit, it's the only way to be sure.

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

I have just send an email to hot toys customer service. Hope they will answer me..
Hi again hot toys,

My question is very simple. Did you abandone this figure or you will finally release it? We are lots of people interested on it but you continue releasing action man and starwars figures and last news about this figure came from 2014...

There are more than 330 pages about a figure which we only have seen 4 pictures...(here you can see alien ripley post but there is another one about aliens ripley with the powerloader with more than 70 pages..)

https://www.sideshowcollectors.com/...en-ripley-alien-updated-prototype-hs-261.html

Please, I hope to get an answer from you, at least to stop looking to your facebook everyday waiting for an announcement of this figure...

Please give us an answer hot toys. We really deserve it
 
Re: Hot Toys: Ellen Ripley - Alien (Updated with new prototype HS)

Sincerely hope you get response,hates to disappoint you though,they had thousands ton of mails and messages on their FB/mail everyday,I'm doubt they really take further notice there.
But if your analysis enable post to the HK forum probably more effected,bcos that's they are normally hanging around.

Am I stupid if I believe that the likeness rights stranded this one? NECA had a ton of problems getting them...

They made her daughter from the recent game, but that's really different I think in terms of likeness rights, since its not a real person

NECA has made several Ellen Ripleys lately.

Parker was great. Best male character in the first film anyone? I'd say the vote might be split between Parker and Dallas.
 
Re: Hot Toys: Ellen Ripley - Alien (Updated with new prototype HS)

Such a great cast generally, so a hard one to choose for me.

If we're going by performances alone, Ian Holm gets it.

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

This is all too familiar. I got the same form letter in reply to my inquiries about HT's long lost Lone Ranger figure, and have been forced to console myself with NECA's efforts.

Though I'd give Ripley a much better chance of getting made eventually.
 
Re: Hot Toys: Ellen Ripley - Alien (Updated with new prototype HS)

If only Neca wasn't Neca :lol Not that theres anything wrong with Neca :D

I love their lines but I'd also love if they worked in high-end. Being American-based NECA really cares about our classics whereas Hot Toys doesn't have that same loyalty - neither enough to make them in the first place (anymore) nor to make them as accurate as they could be when they actually do.

NECA can be inaccurate sometimes but it's usually for budgetary reasons rather than a lack of caring. With Hot Toys I very much get the feeling it's the latter.
