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

[P.]

i might be wrong, but on those photos she has a better face expression than before. no more evil smile that makes the alien run in fear before he's raped with his own tale.
could it be a changed sculpt?

 

[Signet]

I was thinking that too....hair and face looks better than the stock pics. Thinner face. Though I say that cautiously because it's so blurry.

Face is more than likely the same. Just being recorded with a low res camera through a sheet of glass. Possibly lens distortion on top of distortion from the glass on top of motion distortion since this is obviously a screen cap of a live streamed video. I know you guys are just trying to be optimistic, but... stop that.

why? this thread is filled with pessimists already

 

[Alice]

Normally, I would be promoting optimism, but in this case you're simply setting yourself up to be let down.

 

[P.]

i have a specific case of not caring about this figure anymore despite having paid for it, which helps me accept anything, including complete cancellation, with an understanding smile.

 

[WolfBoy]

The face/hair looks exactly the same. Its just a blurry pic.

Face it, the figure has been delayed because HT have more important things to release, not because this is getting some major new design overhaul or anything.

And the cat's run off.

Probably saw itself in a mirror.

I don't see any shoes in the background.

Why is Ripley being displayed in a place that isn't a shoe shop?

EXACTLY. At this point they have messed my mind up so much the two are inseparable. Buy sneakers, think of how I'd like to see Aliens. Watch Aliens, think about how I'd like to get another pair of shoes.

 

[Rijie78]

Well, there is a precedent for that.

 

[Plastic Bateman]

I grabbed Alien Isolation for £8 in last weekend's Steam sale. Wonder if Ripley will be out before I can finish the game playing it one hour per evening?

If she comes out looking generic then my funds might be forwarded to R2 D2 or back in my pocket for another day.

Where's this thing being made?.......North Korea!
So much secrecy and the low quality photo's, LOL!

Think you might be onto something. They're even using parts several generations behind.

I dunno 'bout you but I'm still sceptical it has the capability of reaching the United States.

 

[Agromenauer]

I like the likeness because the picture is like this old one...

Had to laugh at that comment, this is the thread that just keeps on giving.
