Looks much better in hand. The headsculpt is a 9/10 Sigourney Weaver. I'd be reluctant to recommend paying full price for it, but the headsculpt is very nice
Thanks for your comments and supporting the channel it's much appreciated 👍🏻 Absolutely 💯 there is a good figure in here trying to get out it just needs a bit of work 👍🏻 Take care of yourself and happy collecting
Thanks for your comments and supporting the channel it's much appreciated 👍🏻 Absolutely 💯 the Wasteland Ranger from VTS strikes again 🤣 I really struggle to understand how Present Toys got the scale wrong 🤔 I have never seen this problem with any of their other figures....somebody in QC needs a stern talking too. A body swap couldn't hurt and I think there is enough give in the outfit to accommodate it but those boots would be a headache. Take care of yourself and happy collecting 👍🏻
I have this figure and overall the individual parts are better than the whole. The headsculpt is a very good likeness of a younger Sigourney Weaver. The garments aren't bad, but definitely could use some weathering and distress, depending on what scene you are wanting to recreate. The paint deco on the shoes is poorly executed, but again if you decide to distress them and add some weathering it becomes less of an issue. The weapons and various accessories are satisfactory. It's a shame that they didn't give us the full costume, including the corresponding blue shirt/top she wore earlier in the movie, however I'm doing a hot toys body swap and adding the brown leather bomber jacket since this figure is very clean and it will recreate the look she had earlier in the mission. I also have the original Hot Toys "Aliens" version of Ripley, so this figure is a massive improvement (headsculpt wise) compared to that one. I fancy myself as a proper enthusiast of the Alien franchise and have watched them all more times that I can remember. So this figure serves my purposes well, but I can understand how others might feel disappointed 🎉 Great 👍 unboxing and review video 📹 Cheers
Thanks as always for your comments and supporting the channel it's much appreciated. Absolutely 💯 a mixed bag this one...the body swap is a good idea and I will be doing it myself as it just looks goofy along side other Alien relayed figures. The outfit needs some work as well to get it up to par, overall there is the base here for a solid Ripley figure, but if your a proper enthusiast like you straight out of the box just doesn't cut it imo. Hopefully Hot Toys will drop an Aliens Ripley release depending on the success of the Scorched Xenomorph. Take care of yourself and happy collecting.
Thanks as always for your comments and support 👍🏻 Absolutely 💯 a lot of scale issues going on here from the box upwards 🤣 Take care of yourself and happy collecting.
Oh dear. Theres me being an advocate of present toys latest releases and then they give us this! I held off on preordering because of the original shots they released and im glad i did. Headsculpt is ok but those arms are terrible. Seamless bodies are becoming more popular but phicen seem to be the only ones who can do the job right. You will have to let me know how i can contact you privately so i can sort out the neca feral predator for you. Thanks for sharing and happy collecting.
Thanks as always for the comments and support 👍🏻 You and me both 🤣...as you know I've got a lot of time for Present Toys but they need to get some consistency in their product. They lurch from amazing pieces like the Al Pacino Vincent Hanna from Heat and Jean Reno from Leon, to stuff like this all too often which is a real shame. Everything about this figure is below par except the price point. Thanks again for the offer 👍🏻 I can be reached via email at jameshoson5@gmail.com and I'm sure we can come to some arrangement👍🏻 Take care of yourself and happy collecting.
I'm so picky when it comes to signourney figures she looks decent though. Somthing I have to point out that being the aliens nerd I am this bugged me the whole time..ripley never wore gloves. Idk why they would include that maybe just because I don't know but she never wore gloves. They would of done better to put her watch on her wrist and loose the gloves.
Thanks for your comments and supporting the channel it's much appreciated 👍🏻 I'm spoilt by owning the Prime 1 & Blitzway 1/4 scale Ripley Aliens statue which to me hasn't been bettered...yes the price point is off the scale and it's not an action figure but inevitably everything ends up being compared to it. Thanks for pointing out the gloves...I completely missed that...why add something that wasn't in the film and miss something out that was...makes no sense 🤔 Take care of yourself and happy collecting 👍🏻
Thanks for your comments and supporting the channel it's much appreciated 👍🏻 Don't get me started on that face hugger 😂 this Ripley is not 1/6 scale but the face hugger is (apart from the legs) so it looks way too oversized to use with the figure. I used a NECA 1/10 scale Big Chap face hugger in the showcase and that was far more in proportion 🙄 and the knuckles are way too red....I could go on 🤣 Take care of yourself and happy collecting.
Thanks heaps for the review, really glad I watched it because it's made it really easy to cancel my preorder. Terrible figure, especially seeing how well that ancient HT Ripley has stood up in comparison.
Thanks for your comments and supporting the channel it's much appreciated 👍🏻 Absolutely 💯 toe to toe with the Hot Toys Ripley is no contest. If you are up for some serious modding or you want a Ripley place holder then it's worth a look but with hindsight I would say hang on and see what HT does in 2025. Take care of yourself and happy collecting 👍🏻
Thanks as always for your comments and support 👍🏻 with one eye on the price point this figure has a lot going for it 👍🏻 Take care of yourself and happy collecting.
Thanks as always for your comments and support 👍🏻 Absolutely 💯 the highlight of this figure is the head sculpt imo which is far better than the prototype pictures led us to believe but as an overall package it's just not there. It will be interesting to see if HT rerelease the 79 version in 2025 or go for a new Aliens version...or if we are super lucky both 😯 Take care of yourself and happy collecting.
Thanks for your comments and supporting the channel it's much appreciated 👍🏻 unfortunately not Present Toys finest hour this one....too many issues to make it a serious recommendation even at the price point imo. Take care of yourself and happy collecting.
Thanks for your comments and supporting the channel it's much appreciated 👍🏻 I can't argue...it's not Present Toys finest hour 🤣 Take care of yourself and happy collecting 👍🏻
This figure is a total fail in every way. Headsculpt sucks. Copy/paste of Hot Toys. Too small. Terrible boots. Poor tailoring. Dear God save your money.
Thanks for your comments and supporting the channel it's much appreciated 👍🏻 Absolutely 💯 not Present Toys finest hour and not much to recommend other than the price point. Honestly imo I would say wait and see what HT are going to do with the IP in 2025. Take care of yourself and happy collecting👍🏻
This is not a terrible looking version. Kinda like it 😂❤👽
Looks much better in hand. The headsculpt is a 9/10 Sigourney Weaver. I'd be reluctant to recommend paying full price for it, but the headsculpt is very nice

@goFigure623 this one almost has the esthetic of a cartoon which I like because it's uniqueness 👍👌
This is that Furiosa figure from a few years ago all over again. You think a body swap would do this trick?

Haaa that box-art! Uh... that must be a baby facehugger on Ripley's face! Hilarious! And yeah Weaver is around six feet/pretty tall.

I'm highly critical when it comes to the Alien franchise and Sigourney Weaver, and this headsculpt is 9/10. I was pleasantly surprised.
The head sculpt is certainly the highlight of what is a flawed figure 👍🏻

Good Review Mate.
Face Huggers legs are too short.

How many ripley's is this for you, Lieutenant : }
Thirty eight....simulated....3 combat drops including this one Hot Toys, Prime 1 & Blitzway and now Present Toys 🤣
Oh, man... : }

@goFigure623 Thanks heaps man, I've got too many decent figures on order to waste my money on this one! Have a good one!
Nop 😢😢
I can absolutely see why 🤣 Take care of yourself and happy collecting.
Wow this figure is a good entry point for the price I will have to look into this one. Thanks 🙏 for the look at her
Thanks as always for your comments and support 👍🏻 with one eye on the price point this figure has a lot going for it 👍🏻 Take care of yourself and happy collecting.
Cool figure but looks nothing like Sigourney Weaver.
In hand it's a 9/10 likeness of Sigourney Weaver. The rest of the figure has it's faults but the headsculpt is quite accurate

Great video but a terrible figure

Yes

@ you can always transplant it to a Phicen but yeah everything just sucks
