Guys, who ordered the RE1 Jill from Rotator Toys?
I think she's good, and the price is correct but I'm afraid MTTOYS will release theirs (I'm never disappointed by them)

The Rotator pre-order has been available for several weeks now, and MTTOYS doesn't seem to have decided to release its version, which is why I'm thinking of pre-ordering the Rotator Toys while it's available.
I just hope I'm not making a mistake, because often when a brand releases a character, other brands release their versions pretty quickly afterwards, but there's still nothing for the Jill apart from the SWtoys, which isn't necessarily any better and is far too expensive!

So far MTTOYS has stuck to the remakes with the exception of Village Chris which is on the same updated RE engine.

I don’t know what MTToys plans are and with the delay for RE9 they may well revisit the older games.

Multiple third party brands announcing their version of a figure in quick succession is something you only really see with the hype of a new entry. A flood of Jill’s for RE3R and tons of Ada and Ashley’s (poor Leon) for RE4R.

what about the outfits? HT?

Basically it's just the ZC Toys with minor modification or adjustment (new holster, might have given a new belt, etc.). I will probably need to replace his STARS decal soon (no big deal as I have my own more patch-like replacements like I added to Rebecca's shoulder), but overall it's quality outfit. The famous STRARS vest

I bet the more established third parties are probably waiting to see if an RE1 Re-remake manifests before going through the effort of making RE1 figures. The Rotator one feels pretty amateur, I suspect it may even just be one guy. It's the company's very first figure and the promo photos are so bad lol. I put down a deposit anyway, but I think it's 50/50 the figure even comes out. But lately I've been pleasantly surprised by how much better the final figures have been from smaller companies that have more to prove, so that's why I've given them a shot.
