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

I'll be in med-lab, checking on Gorman and continuing to stay tuned.
 
Re: Hot Toys: Ellen Ripley - Alien (Updated with new prototype HS)

Someone should PM Motux and have him come here and clarify this completely out of tune situation.

He's got the answers to everything.
 
Re: Hot Toys: Ellen Ripley - Alien (Updated with new prototype HS)

I believe they teased RoboCop 2.0 and then once the remake was announced they delayed it 1-2 years until the new movie hit theaters. They might have planned to release Ripley earlier until Blomkamp started leaking rumors about a new film. Or....they're just pulling a Marty/Batman Returns and will release it randomly at some undisclosed future year without rhyme or reason. You just never know with them.
Stay tuned Khev. It's happening, probably.

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

Budget Stark has put up the release schedule for HK, have a guess which figure is missing. AGAIN.

Only announced figures are on there, it could be announced tomorrow and then be put right on the schedule, that's what happens with every figure.

(We don't have to worry about it though, since she won't ever be announced.)

"What do you mean? How long was I staying tuned?"

-Has no one discussed this with you yet?

"No. But, I mean, I don't... recognize this place."

-No, I know. Uh, okay, it's just that, uh, this might be a shock to you. It's long...

"*How* long? Please. "

-Fifty-seven years. The thing is, Chan doesn't really concern himself with any of this and you drifted right through Marvel release after Marvel release. It's really blind luck that a group tuned in to Star Wars figures found when they did. One in a thousand really. I think you'r damn lucky to be alive kiddo. You could just be out there staying tuned forever.

Alright. I think I've maxed out my "reputation giving" in this thread! :lol

Some of you deserve multi-reps for sure!

Ok Fly(we go way back gang) I'm sticking a flag out there, staking a claim -- that I will see the HT email flash announcement of Ripley late Sunday night/Monday morning and the PO going up Tues. There, I'll have to live with it.

''How long has it been since you got any sleep? 24 hours?''

Hicks I'm not gonna end up like those Prometheus figures. You'll take care of it won't you?

''If it comes to that, I'll stay tuned for us both....listen, lets just make sure it doesn't come to that....right?''
 
Re: Hot Toys: Ellen Ripley - Alien (Updated with new prototype HS)

That's just ****ing great...
Tune OVER NOW MAN!
Tune over...
What are we gonna?!!

How about we build a fire, sing
Tune-bah-ya..
 
Re: Hot Toys: Ellen Ripley - Alien (Updated with new prototype HS)

Bishop: Is there a problem staying tuned?
Burke: I'm sorry. I don't know why I didn't even- Ripley's last trip out, the syn- the artificial person malfunctioned.
Ripley: "Malfunctioned"?
Burke: There were problems and a few figures never made it to production.
Bishop: I'm shocked. Was it an older license?
Burke: Yeah several.
Bishop: Well, that explains it then. In the old days before staying tuned on forums and email, things always were a bit twitchy. That could never happen now with our auto response "stay tuned" away messages. It is impossible for me to not keep tuned or by omission of action, allow a human to not stay tuned.

Ash: You still don't understand what you're dealing with, do you? Hot Toys is the perfect organism. Its structural perfection is matched only by its hostility.
Lambert: You admire it.
Ash: I admire its purity. A survivor... unclouded by conscience, remorse, or delusions of morality. Only Marvel, Johnny Depp, and Star Wars from here on out.
Parker: Look, I am... I've heard enough of this, and I'm asking you to pull the plug.
Ash: [Ripley goes to disconnect Ash, who interrupts] Last word.
Ripley: What?
Ash: I can't lie to you about your chances, but... stay tuned.

I know what he'll say.

"Of course HT will release the Ripley figure. You'd have to be an ***** to think that they won't go through with production. Out of all the prototype figures they've shown, only 2 haven't been put into production. That's 2 figures out of over 300 figures that have been produced. My contacts have told me that they had plans for putting up the Ripley figure for preorder on Alien Day but are waiting for final approval from the license holders. This figure will get made, though not as quickly as the impatient people on this forum would like. Just stay tuned."
 
Re: Hot Toys: Ellen Ripley - Alien (Updated with new prototype HS)

Ummm... staying tuned is not strong with this one..ummm yes

TIME OUT.
Time out guys.

Stars wars and marvel licenses currently have the upper hand. So this post here is a little offenses and clearly sends HT the wrong message.
Now the effort is surely appreciated but just remember to choose your content/themes wisely.
We are all gathered here pumping this thread to the top of this section why exactly?
Well because we need more Aliens, NOT of the star wars variety nor the oh so popular Disney affiliated types.
When you tune into THIS thread your creativity in posts just be a tribute to the Alien films. That creativity should flow naturally, it should be firmly rooted and dedicated to those great figures of old to the point where after the dust settles.. and Hot Toys turns that big ship called their production schedule off course.. just for us
The people that matter.
So think Aliens 2.0
Think Predator 2.0
Think Rambo 2.0
Think.... of the possiblites.
Stay strong and stay tuned.


.... not form a movie guys, I'm really talking to you here so stop trying to figure it out.
 
Re: Hot Toys: Ellen Ripley - Alien (Updated with new prototype HS)

I like to keep this handy...for staying tuned.
