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

Now she has my attention. This will be a interesting female head sculpt because it is not meant to be beautiful or sexy but rather a regular woman (if that makes sense). This might work to her favour and become HT best female head sculpt!
 
Re: Hot Toys: Ellen Ripley - Alien (Updated with new prototype HS)

Now we are talking Hot Toys:) The new head sculpt looks good and I believe it will become better. I am in:)
 
Re: Hot Toys: Ellen Ripley - Alien (Updated with new prototype HS)

New sculpt is great. The differences in form are incremental at 1/6 scale, but the impact on likeness is night and day. Over to Ms Weaver and Fox I guess?
 
Re: Hot Toys: Ellen Ripley - Alien (Updated with new prototype HS)

Wow. She's absolutely stunning.

+1

This sculpt would probably persuade me to finally buy a figure with 'realistic' hair:

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

The new head looks spot on. They captured her facial expression perfectly in the open mouth one. Really hope they don't mess around with the sculpt from this point until the production one. Neat to see the difference between the one at SDCC and Ani-Com.
 
Re: Hot Toys: Ellen Ripley - Alien (Updated with new prototype HS)

That new sculpt is Weaver, the other is someone else.
 
Re: Hot Toys: Ellen Ripley - Alien (Updated with new prototype HS)

If they keep the new headsculpt this will be a day one preorder for me. As well as the powerloader version. Hot toys is stepping up the game. Fimgers and toes crossed for pers system as well. If so should make for awesome posing. Imagine ripley standing feet wide base flamethrower angled out head tilted down with eyes facing looking up. Like shes about to wreck a xeno oh man.
 
Re: Hot Toys: Ellen Ripley - Alien (Updated with new prototype HS)

Yup, that is a fine HS, I like the rooted hair with this and the power-load figure. Instant PO when offered.
 
Re: Hot Toys: Ellen Ripley - Alien (Updated with new prototype HS)

New sculpt is solid. Still not quite sold on the hair, but I think they'll improve it between now and release.

Is it perverted for me to ask if her end of movie outfit of tee-shirt and underwear will be included in the set?
 
Re: Hot Toys: Ellen Ripley - Alien (Updated with new prototype HS)

Okay, that's much better.
 
Re: Hot Toys: Ellen Ripley - Alien

Really nice improvement there. Small things here and there brought out the likeness a lot.

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

The jawline for one, on top of everything else that needed tweaking.

I'm even ok with the hair now.
 
Re: Hot Toys: Ellen Ripley - Alien (Updated with new prototype HS)

Yeah, when the likeness is that good the hair seems secondary to me somehow. I'll probably still try to sculpt hair for her, though.
 
Re: Hot Toys: Ellen Ripley - Alien (Updated with new prototype HS)

It's actually a little tighter looking, which is good. Her hair was obviously very curly, not just a long unkempt matted nest.

What's also great, is that her jacket collar seems to be sitting a lot better now, not behind her ears.
 
Re: Hot Toys: Ellen Ripley - Alien (Updated with new prototype HS)

Its only perverted if you do perverted things with it hahaha. Would make for awesome movie scene poses though. Especially since some members do backdrops and what not for their displays
 
Re: Hot Toys: Ellen Ripley - Alien (Updated with new prototype HS)

New headsculpt = SOLD. Take my money!! :)
Here's hoping we see other new, or new & improved, Hot Toys figures from ALIEN!
