1/6 Hot Toys: Ellen Ripley - Aliens (with Power Loader!)

[theuzi9mm]

The Predator and Alien lines aren't dead, man. Their signs are real low, but they ain't dead!

You can't help them! You can't. Right now they're being put on the backburner like the others.

Alright we got seven palates full of Iron Man figures....I say we roll them out here to ship out the entire stock and make room for Ripley

It's worth a try but we don't even know if it'd be effective...

 

[Rotfish]

Switch out arms maybe?

I really want her to look good posed with the pulse rifle.

Dammit HT you got me thinking about this when we know it's going to take you forever to release it anyway.

Include the leather jacket and...

...I'm in.

Its freaky, its like the same exact figure and loader with a new head and better paint apps. They did nothing. Same crappy welding torch too. Bet they didn't fix the tube connectors either.

 

[Snake Plissken]

Third time ****ing with the head and it looks even less like her.

Looks great to me . Send this my way .

 

[theuzi9mm]

it'll never happen.....

What happened to the seamless arms? Looks like they just cobbled this display one together from old bits they had lying around.

Of course they fixed the hoses. Just like they fixed the problem with the disintegrating rubber dome on ED-209.

I'll never understand if one had the choice, they would go seamless. It just becomes a statue by doing that and you can't give it any character.

 

[BetterThanKenobi83]

Did they shrink it ? It looks smaller in those pics. Overall though it looks pretty good but I agree the arm joints are glaring.

 

[burtial]

The arm joints are awful. I've seen better elbows on a $3 Dollar General toy.

 

[FlyAndFight]

Seamless arms, please. Those joints look freakin' awful.

Why doesnt everyone thats interested in the figure go to the sideshow page and RSVP this. It might show them the amount of people that want this.

I did!

It's funny to see all of the forgotten releases at the bottom.

I thought Alien Ripley would maybe be there lol.

Why? Because....

 

[Rijie78]

Moving away from the seamless arms seems like step backward to me. Mind you, I still think this could be just being stuffed together from parts just to hawk round on display.. I do wonder if this one will actually get produced.

This seems to have become my default mindset for anything that isn't a Marvel or Star Wars figure now, lol. (Or a Johnny Depp sculpt)

 

[rjszar]

I think they need to stay away from the seamless arms on this one, because even in the most relaxed pose the arms are still bent. Eventually cracks will appear. Phicen has developed a great silicone body, but even that might give out after a good while.

 

[rjszar]

Very true.

I can't wait for them to not release this.
