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

[Captain-Miles-Dallas]

Excellent review, Alice! Thank you for posting it!
Really looking forward to unboxing my own Ripley....

 

[Space Jockey]

Yeah, that looks excellent. Thanks for posting the vid Alice, cannot wait for this figure!

 

[xipotec]

How much you wanna bet Jonesie was bought from an outside company and not really done in HT studio at all?

They probably found a contractor to do that entire part....

i might have forgotten how the face looks in the movie, or i just compare it to other HT interpretations of real faces, but i think it looks fantastic in this real-life video.
as simple figure as the human Murphy - and same excellent.
also the sculpt of that hair explains the several years waiting. that's how long it could take to make them all

Thanks for posting these, they're the first pics that actually make me want to get this!

She looks pretty good on the videos. I'll be happy when she finally arrives.

The cat will get immediately thrown in the carrier.

 

[slikkerias]

Mine is shipped and I can't wait. Think I'll be happy with her!
...gosh, it's weird. I've been on this thread since I started following the forum - because of this figure. Finally the wait is over.

The more reviews I see, the more I like it.

 

[RIDDICK]

I'll try to get this under 240 shippd.
If not then... I'll try to sell my Iminime clothing/flamethrower set and forget about this franchise forever.

 

[Captain-Miles-Dallas]

I'm happily impressed with all the videos and photos!

It's hard to believe after waiting all this time (What? 2, 3, 4 years since she was announced?)
and having her on PO for 16 months, that she will soon be in my collection.

 

[marisinacc]

The french guy thinks she has the expression of a dead fish (I don't agree) plus he has no clue what the detector is and he calls the flamethrower a laser gun. He clearly is not a fan at all of the movie (even says he hasn't seen it since 19799.

BTW, that Jonesy needs a replacement, its simply awful, it looks like a barbie cat.

i provided proof that Scott made Ash **** Ripley (for the worst reason - out of spite to humans). so Ridley was mad, but he caused this.

other people reminded you about O'Bannons intention to make the whole movie about disgusting interspecies ****. so Dan was mad, but he caused this.

i provided a direct quote from Cartwright who spoke about her own heroine - the only thing she could assume about Lambert's death was that she had been *****. so Veronica was dreaming about alien **** by your own definition of the case, but she caused it as well as she was the most ancient mentioner of it.

everything around Alien mentioned and caused this conclusion - but you're in denial and insult everybody who isn't.

at least be consequent and insult the source first and interpreters next.

BTW you mention "young boys" so often and with such hate that i wonder: what's your true dark story with them?

Did Sideshow change their policy so that you can still earn reward points off a purchase to which you've applied previous points? I put my old points toward this figure and just realized I've got points pending from preordering her.

Yeah, I think you earn points on whatever is left over after discounts and what not.

Oh, I see. Still not a bad deal. Better than it used to be.

 

[siquisiri]

With peeps finally getting the figure, and all of us moving on to criticize some other fig, can admins make some kind of certificate of completion or diploma for us?? LMAO

 

[davejames]

The likeness is definitely starting to grow on me more and more with these videos. Although I do wonder if there's a doll wig out there that might work better for this, and improve the look of the figure. Normally I'm fine with sculpted hair, but the hair sculpt here just seems ugly and unconvincing.

 

[Rotfish]

Found this on eBay. Several listings of the same sculpt with different paint apps.

Jonesy didn't have as prominent of a mustache and his eyes were green, but if you're looking to display the cat at Ripley's feet, this looks to be a decent option. Hell, it wouldn't be too difficult to repaint those and minimize the 'stache with some light drybrushing.
