1/6 1/6 Hot Toys: Ellen Ripley - Alien - Collectible Figure

[Rotfish]

There must be so few preorders.

Couldn't be because of the blatant lack of effort HT puts into these releases.

 

[YoNoSe]

Or maybe the cat sculpt waffle-iron stalled. Equally blatant.

It's blatantly a conspiracy by Howard, Marvel & DC to just keep selling toys, and deny fans of old movies something or other. Booooo.

They better be figuring out how to get the haired sculpt AND the sculpted hair into the same box at this point.

Why not release a 2.0 of all the ALIENS figures and include a piece of the Power Loader? 5 Marines total and like Neca....a Ripley and Newt boxset.
I'm sure this would spike sales and have many comit to the entire line. The same can be done for a Queen.... if the 2.0 of the Xenos included a piece of the Queen as some sort of "Build-a-figure".

Because if HT is so afraid of weak sales that they continue to delay what can be considered a very basic figure, why not try a new method or simply give up the licence.

I don't buy all that weak sales bull. HT just need to make smaller number of figs to make it worth their while. I still cant believe an iconic character like Ripley will sell worse then, say something like this.....

Not a bad idea, wish that would happen, but not as long as HT sits on the license.

Hey! Do you think that I will see this figure before I die? I'm 42 years old now... I am healthy... maybe I will die at 80 more or less... Thanks.

No chance You might be alive but your fingers will be so old and wrinkly you wont be able to pose her or even take that crazy tight plastic off the box. Maybe just sit in your rocking chair and look at the box and think of when you were a young fit man & sigh.

You won't be dead, but any enthusiasm for the figure will definitely be long dead.

You got a better chance of getting hired for a deep space commercial mining ship.

Cryogenic Chamber. That's the only way to be sure.

Deadshot released. No sign of him in the 'coming soon' poster. Has Ripley or the endo been replaced by that figure? *sigh* ........... . . .......

I'm pretty sure most of us are already at that point or very close to it.

I loled.

Unfortunately we're all in the same boat. Well, I'm waiting on the Endo too, so I'm in 2 boats.

 

[Wor-Gar]

Deadshot today... A Guardian on Tuesday... another on Thursday...


I'm not sure I see a reason to release Ripley since Alien tanked so bad.



This will be a first though for HT: to actually show the figure in your monthly "Upcoming Releases" for April, and then not deliver. A new low.

It's a big pile of horse **** being honest.
