This one actually came out better than I expected. The paints on the Ripley's face are a little too bright for my tastes, which gives her an almost cartoonish look (almost PlayArts Kai-ish,) but even with that gripe, in hand, I think it's the best likeness to Sigourney Weaver we've gotten from the line so far. So happy to finally have the last Ripley I'll ever need, since I'm one of only 22 people on the planet who actually enjoyed Alien 3.
Case assortment was kinda weird though now that I think about it. There were 8 figures total...6 Xenos, one Yutani Guard and one Ripley. All of the Xenos were brown though...none of the black/grey variants were to be found.
I guess NECA is finally realizing the human characters don't sell all that well, which, if they follow this pattern, is really going to suck for those trying to find Vasquez and Frost with the next assortment.
I went to TRU yesterday and saw the Dog Alien and the variant looks to be an open mouth with just lighter brown and grey accents so I bought both since I missed out on the first release...
