Hot Toys Resident Evil 5 Jill Valentine!!!

[Darth_Fatso]

no link , and she's not out yet, maybe its the initial prototype so no changes have been made to that version.

I'm such a klutz today Added the vid link but I think you've probably seen this vid in the Berserker thread allready bio. Here's hoping it's only the proto but if HT was gonna make any improvements, you'd think they'd want to show it off. But again the picture in the vid is kind blurry plus it's mainly focousing on Berserker.

Edit: Looks like HottoyzJoker beat me too it. Thanks for posting that bud

Heh no worries I've done that plenty of times and you're right I did see that in the berserker thread.

At least the basic look of the figure looks good to my eyes.

 

[Darth_Fatso]

Yeah she's a great figure overall and I must confess the proto headsculpt has kinda grown on me especially since imo it kooks like her in the new RE: Revelations.

 

[Biojex]

Hopefully Eddie Wong will be posting some photos soon, he has Jill listed as being at Tokyo toy show with photos pending...along with a lot of veeery interesting topic titles.

scroll down the page for the reeeeally interesting stuff.

 

[Darth_Fatso]

Very interesting indeed. As much as I despise most of the RE movies, I'd still pick up a movie version Jill, Executioner and definately a Nemesis. Sadly from what I understand it's only Alice thats being made for sure.

 

[Biojex]

^^^will definitely be a missed opportunity, alas.

 

[Darth_Fatso]

Indeed my friend, indeed.

 

[gotham_knight]

Still hoping for a S.T.A.R.S Jill somewhere down the line...

 

[Darth_Fatso]

We all are my friend, we all are.

Think they should sculpt the arms better, looks too cheap and stick-like.

 

[Darth_Fatso]

I'm a bit dissapointed in Jill's headsculpt but reguardless I still really want this figure.

 

[wesker]

I'm disapointed they haven't touched the head sculpt, but I'm even more disapointed with the paint job on the lips. They're far too thin now and any likeness the proto had to the character is gone. This doesn't look like Jill at all.

I really hope this is just a bad production piece and we'll see a better sample at SDCC.

 

[Darth_Fatso]

Also in the pics it looks like she's wearing eye liner. But yeah I hope the one they shoaw a SDCC (assuming they do) will look better.

 

[Dug]

Although it makes it look even less like Jill I think the thinner lips look a little better on the sculpt, slightly prettier imo.

Unfortunately it will take nothing short of a miracle to make it look like Jill at this stage. Real shame, I would have snapped this up in an instant if the likeness was good. It makes me wonder why it's so hard to get it right, when you consider the in game models can be easily extracted into a 3D modelling app and then "printed" using a Rapid prototyping machine.

 

[Biojex]

The hat looks good in those pics.

 

[hunnipot85]

The face seems a tad plain when compared to HTs other females.

 

[Biojex]

Yeah HT tends to do a lot less texturing on their female figures and their VG figures (minus ezio), her being both of those isn't helping

 

[Kibishii]

The face seems a tad plain when compared to HTs other females.

Agreed, I just went and looked at my Machiko and the detail is way better than on Jill. I hope to see Jill at SDCC to make up my mind whether I pick her up or not.

 

[wesker]

I still really like this picture. The face isn't perfect but at least you know who its supposed to be.
