On the other hand, Jones will stay in his box and I'll look out for a resin one by somebody like Sherratt & Simpson. I have three of their kitties, but no gingers.
 
I would have preferred rooted hair because you could make it look accurate with some work

Sculpted? Unless it's done accurate to begin with, it'll never look right
 
I have always been in the camp that she should look like Alien Ripley and not what everyone thinks she should look like (i.e. Aliens Ripley). I think she looks pretty good. I'm glad to see at least a few minor tweaks..........except for the cat. I'm at a total loss on that. Keeping my eyes on Toy City to see if they start releasing 1/6 cats along with their dog line.

I agree. This fig needs to be 79 Weaver, when she was like 31 or something! Personally I think she looked goofy with that 80's perm in Aliens but then again, it was the times so go figure.
 
I think she looks pretty damn good. There's no question who that is. I'm not so sure what the demonic imp thing from hell in her arms is supposed to be though.. That is scarier than the frikkin alien!
 
I wonder if the long delay for Ripley was if HT included low cut white panties under the overalls!! Hey…just asking. Don’t judge :monkey3

that was the reason for my second pre-order at another vendor but I cancelled it a few months ago out of spite! I believe that she won't sell out anywhere so if I am so inclined to do 'pre-spacesuit' Ripley I'll be able to get another figure to make the mods/costume!
 
Been comparing this with the last incarnation for the past few minutes and I'm going to give Hot Toys credit on this one. A few small changes made a big difference. The eyes aren't pointing up anymore. The hair looks better around the forehead. She seems to look less bucktoothed. Features in general just seem slightly more pronounced. I was worried that with as soft as the sculpt was before, she'd have a dough face once released. First pictures usually have me worried, but this time, I'm excited by what I see.
 
On average how long after a figures been release do we get our first Youtube unboxing? Crazy how excited you get when you see a unboxing that actually applies to a figure your interested in purchasing. For me not too often as it has only been HT Snowtrooper so far in 2017 for me. And last year 2016 only ANH Obi Wan. So yes I'm excited!!
