This figure represents Ellen Ripley in the Aliens film, produced by Hot Toys in the Movie Masterpiece range under reference MMS895. This 1/6 scale articulated figure is a Deluxe Version measuring approximately 30 cm tall, with a body using silicone material arms and an articulation system with 18 points. The collectible reproduces the likeness of Sigourney Weaver with a newly crafted head sculpt, separate rolling eyeballs, a sculpted black curly shag hairstyle, tailored fabric costume elements, weapons and display accessories.
This collectible depicts Ellen Ripley during the events of Aliens, the 1986 science fiction film directed by James Cameron. The represented version corresponds to Ripley's armed confrontation with the Xenomorph hive on LV-426, where the character moves from trauma survivor to combat-ready protagonist while protecting Newt. Hot Toys uses the character's sleeveless outfit, weapon loadout and hive-themed display elements to reproduce the visual context of the final act of the film.
The head sculpt is based on the likeness of Sigourney Weaver as Ellen Ripley and includes separate rolling eyeballs for adjustable gaze direction. The sculpted black curly shag hairstyle reproduces Ripley's screen appearance, while the body configuration uses silicone material arms to maintain a seamless visual treatment around the shoulders and elbows when the sleeveless costume is displayed.
The Deluxe Version includes additional Xenomorph hive elements compared with the standard MMS894 version. The extra Ovomorph and its tendril-themed display base are designed as modular display components that can be connected to the Xenomorph remains-themed diorama figure base, recreating the Queen's chamber environment associated with Ripley's final confrontation in Aliens.
The figure includes interchangeable hands, tailored costume parts, weapon elements and display accessories corresponding to the armed hive sequence from the film.
