Present Toys - PT60 - Flight Officer Aliens Ripley

[kam veitch]

Preordered. I want to work on this

Present Toys are like the third party equivalent of Star Ace, and elicit about the same level of confidence. I wouldn't trust them as far as Virtual Devil could throw a Star Ace figure.

They dabble in things without properly researching them. The grenades are just as wrong as before...

I've got a couple of their figures and completely disagree. Star Ace is pretty much pure **** and the figures I have from PT are good to great.

Is this on giantoy??

Or only in onesixthkit?

Saw the costume in person yesterday at Profiles In History's exhibit at The Paley Center for Media in Beverly Hills. Hope these pics help you guys:

Star Ace made two good figures as well, but that was early on (Virgil Hilts and Dracula).

As bad as Star Ace became, I think even they'd put more effort into research than Present did with Ripley, or that Indiana Jones with the drainpipe trousers.

Present are a third party that will try to get away with minimal effort, and obviously don't care much for some of the things they make, otherwise they'd pay more attention to the source material. Therefore they elicit about the same amount of confidence I have in Star Ace.

Come on Present Toys, still waiting for you to upgrade that head sculpt. Lots of good CG artists out there.

I dont think theyll upgrade the sculpt since its probably a recast

off topic:
for some reason I couldnt see the preorder on giantoy untill I log in , but already pre ordered

Many asian sellers hide the non licence stuff behind "login only". (Kit does it too)

Didnt know , Guess Its been a while since I preordered something , maybe its cause of copyright? Or mainly cause of Disney he..

Anyways , whats happening with presentoys? they are releasing preorders like every 5 minutes

Does present toys have a website? Or do they just give news direct to disturbutors?

I did not notice this "Element body * 1 (The rubber part is made of medical grade rubber technology, which will never burst.)"

LOL. If its like phicen, it will break. Hope its more similar to Hot Toys Commando figure body material

I noticed Dean Tolliver said he will be working on a Ripley sculpt, so at least we'll have that option.

Still think I want to hold off to see what the final product looks like, as this doesn't look remotely worth $210 right now.

 

[OmarColeccionador]

I got my ripley on preorder but its gonna be my final one from them... at least untill they release something.

I have officer K and Leon the professional and Im pretty sure theyll not going to be released this year

Iam on the verge if i should cancel this. I love the franchise, but i want more high end figures these days. One good and expensive fig instead of two mediocre ones. Hmmm. I mean i could always try to get a custom head. But i wonder if its all worth it here.
