She looks more like Ripley's sister. Like you can tell they're related, but it's not the same person. lol I really hope that since Blitzway did the head sculpt, they rework it a bit so it looks more like Ripley and not like a close relative.

Speaking as someone who have been let down by my last 5 P1 purchases, I would advise everyone to go into this with the expectation that they will not change the sculpt and that the production pieces will not be as nearly well done, and may arrive broken with zero replacements available. :ROFLMAO: If you're good with all of that, seeing that this will probably be the only decent Ripley we will get (P1 may be holding out on a 1:3), then go for it. I did.
 
Here's hoping in the near future, QS can make a rooted hair, 1:4/1:3 statue of Lt. Ellen Ripley from A L I E N... with flame thrower and Jonesy in cage!

Bit the bullet but ordered from Secret Compass instead of P1. I don’t get the bonus egg but really don’t care. I’ve ordered from SC before and Shane the owner is awesome. Free shipping and he set up a payment plan for me.

I thought the Secret Compass preorder comes with the bonus egg?

I might go with SpecFic.

This woman is a Goodess or at lest she has their hands as it was…lol. If K.A kil is in charged, this figure will be out of this world for sure!!!
 
Comparison found on Facebook, posted by A. Padilla:

I think perhaps she would benefit from slightly less angular eyebrows.

Yeah, with that comparison pic and the video you can see that it needs some refinement. Hopefully they decide to rework it a bit. It's different lighting so it's hard to tell, but the ear lobes look too big, lower lip looks too pouty, eyebrows are too arched, nostrils seem small, nose is too defined or shaded, cheeks are a little shallow and philtrum is not deep enough.....but again, that's just my opinion and they have different light sources.

I don’t know guys but me I will be more than happy if ai receive it exactly hiw it looks like in this last video…she is my ripley:)
 
Man, I want to like this. I want to love this. And I do love everything but the face.

P1S just released another FB video this morning show K.A. Kim twirling the head around. It just doesn't have the realism of what competitors like Queen Studios have been doing with their releases.

I feel like buying it just because we haven't ever seen a large format Ripley before isn't a winning argument for me. I'd rather vote with my wallet.

If the production piece comes out looking great, I'll take my chances and order it 2.5+ years from now. But right now, I just can't get on board with this despite my desire for a Ripley statue.
 
I think the likeness is coming through a lot better in the instagram video. Has it been tweaked or a lighting thing?? Her eyes though appear more hazel in color when they should be a darker brown.

i concur... i've said it early on that eyebrow is so arched like she's a Pfeiffer Catwoman stand in.. lol
