Looks good to me.
 
That should wet some whistles for a little while, as I work on this review.

Can we get some quick thoughts from you? Regarding the figure.

I'm pretty happy for the most part. For some reason I really love the base. Lol. Is the sculpt 100%, of course not, however it is enough of the way there for me.

Thanks!!! Ripley's accessories (including the base) is one of my attractions to the figure. This is the one case where I am happy the HT has reissued a base (originally from Big Chap which was before my HT time).
 
then you know that Tsang cheapened production of predators - and should have understood my note of cheapening Ripley's suit looking like Tsang work. instead you say "so what if he made lots of cheaply constructed predators and made sure HT won't revisit them as they were already made, the guy tries to listen to buyers today". not the point.

again, i didn't speak about likeness, and i specifically explained it in a post you quoted.

Tsang is a freelance sculptor. He doesn't have a say in the decisions HT makes regarding production. Any idea he has must be approved by those above him -- and those above, for financial reasons, tend to put more resources into Disney and DC licenses.

Sculpting is one thing. You can make anything you want from scratch. But you, the artist, are not the one manufacturing and selling the final product. If the company's higher-ups see greater profit in cheap tailoring or recycled parts for these less-popular licenses, that's on them.
 
So......is the figure actually officially out and starting its journey to buyers? or are reviewers just getting their hands on it for reviews with the figure soon to come out?

I really don't get how HT release things, we see people getting figures yet i don't get mine for weeks and weeks later....ugh.

Do Americans get the first batch? are there even batches or is everything just shipped at once?.......
 
Waiting for the first review of the figure. Really waiting for it (3 years waiting..lol)
