This is what I've been waiting for ::

I do hope this is a DX. Very nice change from Batman and Terminator DX releases.

What's the deal with the heads then? There's a few floating around, which belongs to which?

Re: Hot Toys: Ellen Ripley - Alien

I would assume they're simply different prototypes, and my guess is the newer one is the one they plan on going with. At least, I hope so. I don't see HT giving her the DX treatment, doing google eyes or extra heads.

Re: Hot Toys: Ellen Ripley - Alien

Hopefully they get one of them spot on.

Re: Hot Toys: Ellen Ripley - Alien

I don't even need the other head. This is the one I will use. Perfect.

Re: Hot Toys: Ellen Ripley - Alien

That's perfect. This figure is now complete.

Wow that is spot on. Is this a different head than they initially used on Wednesday/Thursday or is it futzing/lighting?

This new, open-mouthed sculpt looks much better. Love all the extras also.

Much better looking sculpt, now just fix that cat.

It is TOTALLY different.

This is not at SDCC. This is the one being displayed at the other convention. The Loader there also has an alternate face on it.

Hell yeah, that's it! Whew! Was really worried we'd have finally gotten a ALIEN Ripley only to be given a crummy look-a-like head. This is clearly Weaver and looks spot-on

So Sigourney finally allowed her image to be used with guns after all these years?

I have no interest in the actually Aliens as figures, but would love Ripley.

I saw NECA also had one, so something must have loosened up. Or maybe since it's a flamethrower it's not as big of a deal?

Would have loved to have bumped naughties with her back then. Of course she would have been thrown in jail.

Took me a second

LOVE. This shot

Man, that is incredible... put it in a box and send it over HT

The first head must just be a placeholder w/a generic likeness. Maybe if the good sculpt isn't approved we'll get stuck with it, but if the good one is approved the first one will probably get scrapped.

Re: Hot Toys: Ellen Ripley - Alien

It looks so good. Her facial features are right from different angles, as well.

Open mouth on A1....

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

Ah thanks guys. Looks great. Now fix up Jonesy.

 

[Wulf]

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

Now the likeness is in the league of the Batman DX15, Robo BD and Marty.

I agree. The open mouth one is looking good.

I'm wondering the extra's that will come with Aliens Ripley.

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

Assuming she isn't just bare bones with the Power Loader, she should come with the blue shirt, jacket, and flame thrower/pulse rifle at least.

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

Really nice upgrade. I liked the first one fine, but I hope this new one is the one we get. The open mouth is great ... really captures Weaver's signature determined underbite.

Yeah, I was somewhat concerned she'd just be barebones with the powerloader. I just can't see Hot Toys throwing money away like that. Separate releases I think in the end.
