Cool, but I'm waiting for the Hot Toys Ripley.

WOW. That Hot toys somehow looks exactly like SW but makes her actually look pretty. Never thought I would want to own a collectible with her face on it till now.

Sigourney IS an attractive woman, she's aging nicely. I'm sure that Hot Toys version will be $499!! Honestly, how do they justify the pricing on these figures? There is a new 24" version, of the 1979 Kenner Alien action figure, that retails for $500!!!!

I'll stick with my 18" NECA Alien, I paid $29 for, a few years back. Of course, they jacked up the pricing, since it's no longer manufactured.

$224.99 seems more realistic for Ripley. That's what they priced Marty McFly at, and he has a load of accessories like she will. I'm more worried about what a new 1/6 scale Big Chap Alien would cost.

Update:

New ALIEN photos of Ripley and Dallas in spacesuits.

I'm not worried, simply because it will be nicer, better quality, and be cheaper than trying to find/buy the original new.

But yeah, it's going to be pricey if it happens. We need more quality Aliens in the HT lineup, the ones from a couple of years ago are mostly rubber and from what I've read, deteriorate rather quickly over time.

Yeah, if they make a new lineup it better be rubber free. It'd be crazy if they tackled the Colonial Marines as well.
