Ripley Artisan Edition by Hot Toys - MMS896AE - Aliens 1/6 scale action figure

An action figure of Ripley by Hot Toys

Ripley is depicted from the movie Aliens, the 1986 science fiction film in which Ellen Ripley confronts the Xenomorph threat after returning to LV-426. The character is represented in her combat-ready appearance from the later part of the film, associated with the confrontation against the alien hive and the rescue mission at the colony.

The figure reflects Ripley's practical on-screen silhouette, with a simple civilian outfit adapted for combat and survival. The design context focuses on her role as the central human character in Aliens, combining the character's recognizable hairstyle, worn clothing and armed equipment from the film setting.

Sculpt and visual finish

This Hot Toys action figure features a newly crafted head sculpt with a likeness based on Ellen Ripley as portrayed by Sigourney Weaver in Aliens. The Artisan Edition uses hand-implanted black curly shag hair made from wool material, recreating the character's textured hairstyle and battle-worn appearance.

The head sculpt includes a separate rolling eyeball mechanism, allowing the gaze direction to be adjusted. The facial sculpt, hair treatment and weathered outfit work together to reproduce Ripley's appearance during the film's action sequences.

Articulation and construction

The figure is built in 1/6 scale and uses a poseable body with silicone material arms for a more seamless visual finish. The body features 18 points of articulation, supporting character-based display poses with the included weapons and accessories.

As part of the Movie Masterpiece range, this figure combines sculpted components, tailored clothing and interchangeable parts in a sixth scale format. The Artisan Edition format is distinguished by the rooted wool material hair treatment rather than a fully sculpted hairstyle.
