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

Re: Hot Toys: Ellen Ripley - Alien (Updated with new prototype HS)

Has it been confirmed if they even have her likeness yet? Thats more important than anything, or would everyone here still get it and just repaint it, like with old Ripleys?

She approved her rights for Neca, i don't see why she would deny them for Hot Toys. Also, would HT go through the trouble of showing Ripley at SDCC, then fixing the sculpt due to negative reaction and show off the mew version a few weeks later in Japan? Why fix sonething when its not a definate sale?

Yep, HT has it. Since this pic was taken, the sculpt has been improved but, at least to me, could still use some tweaking.

Agreed Yankee, I hope they tweak it more or just clean it up, This will be my first and maybe only figure with real hair. I'll prob. get tons of Barbie call outs from friends but I don't care.

I get the feeling the revised sculpt deserves a repost after pictures of that initial sculpt.

It's Ripley, who cares what they think? Here's the pic of the new sculpt from the first page.

Edit: Blade beat me to it. I only posted that pic because it says, on the card, that Sigourney is involved. And cripes, they gotta fix that cat.

I am so glad they switched sculpts... The old one reminds me way too much of my step-mother lol.

Jones got Brett killed, almost cost Ripley her life as well. That cat is evil, pure evil!

The old sculpt almost passes as John Connors step mom in T2.

You mean Vasquez? Same actress she is very versatile, can play a mexican or a white step mom.

So is Todd. He cleaned himself up and played the Secret Service traitor in Air Force One.

xander berkely has been in lots of stuff since T2. X-files, barb wire, air force one, candyman, gattaca.

I like the updated sculpt. I still feel like it looks more like "Aliens" Ripley but I don't mind because it is Sigourney.

Re: Hot Toys: Ellen Ripley - Alien (Updated with new prototype HS)

He was great in Gattaca.

He was also on a show I worked on, Nikita, and was a really nice guy. He's an artist to.

You didn't happen to meet Maggie Q from the show, by the way, did you? Humina-humina-humina.
