I got a Jason part 6 for about forty bucks shipped off ebay. I feel okay with that price.
Stitches is on sale on the NECA website for 25+ shipping. I ordered mine yesterday at 1pm and it was delivered today at noon
>>5923803
Their shipping rocks. It's always fast as fuck.
October is going to be tough on my wallet..
>>5923803
>order arthas and tyrael yesterday at 7 AM
>not even a confirmation email
New Nightmare Freddy is my first NECA. Pretty excited
Vasquez and New nightmare Freddy just hit the stores where i live, time to go shopping.
The freak show.
>>5924136
>photo in microwave
Looks pretty cool though
Got my albino today, he's bloody gorgeous! I love how different his hands and feet are, really fun to pose.
LET'S ROCK AND ROOOLLLLLLLLL
>>5924171
>microwave
Sir, that's clearly a secret underground lab that doesn't smell at all like beans when you really pay attention... I should probably clean that a little better.
Anyway, i'm currently debating if i should get an Albino, i love how it looks but i'm not a big fan of the Aliens Xeno Warrior body, Vasquez is confirmed though.
My local TRU had multiples of the last wave so I just grabbed the Albino with the best paint.
My only complaints are the shitty knees as usual and the paint not being as glossy as I thought it'd be but the figure still looks great and the tongue adds a lot to it.
>>5924218
saw a review that said the joints in knees were good so i guess it's luck of the draw
also glossy paint looks cheap
>>5924218
Mine has tight joints all over. He's stupendous.
>>5924218
Damn, that looks gorgeous, definitely something that would give me nightmares as a kid.
>>5924236
Nah, mine hasn't been able to stand for more than an hour since I got it because of the knees.
I know I'm late, but Tyrael is actually pretty nice, he's probably the first non-pacific rim figure from neca I've actually liked. He's got brick tier articulation, but everything else is great. I particularly like the rubber they used for his little chest sash, it bends very well and doesn't break anything up visually. The wings manage to be fucking adorable too.
Also, I had no idea the hots stuff wasn't their usual scale, he's not out of place with 6" stuff.
>>5924257
Includes:
>Blue dildo with larger head for your gapping pleasure
>Yellow dildo with slimmer head for easy insertion
>Clean skull+spine vibrator for extreme gothic penetration with extra gapping action (batteries no included)
>Bloddy skull+spine vibrator for extreme gothic penetration with extra gapping action on that time of the month (batteries no included)
>Yo dawg, Alien skull dildo yo! We've hear you like aliens and dildos, so you made a dildo out of an alien head that has another dildo inside so you can be penetrated by an alien dildo whille being penetrated by a dildo inside an alien.
>Sex doll (skin not included)
>>5924299
Also, it took them literally 10 tries, but they finally put out a really good gipsy danger. The hips and ankles make a world of difference.
>>5924299
i like the face work
>>5924323
Right? I feel like they really captured his likeness. But if you've got some spare figma faceplates, you've got options.
>>5924321
Is the paint a darker shade of blue than previous ones or is that just lighting?
Just took a chance on a Turtles SDCC set off Aliexpress an anon in the last thread mentioned, so hoping that turns out well. Comes boxed, so I'm assuming they're factory seconds, or stolen? Or worst case, they're straight up knock offs.
>it's another NECA thread where people only talk about alien
Great..
>>5924342
It's hard to tell exactly in person, but the new one is different. It's a pretty straight dark blue, while the first 2.0 seems like it's more teal.
>>5924362
>Manages to say that right when people are talking about Tyrael and Gipsy
Still, you can always bring up another figure if you want to talk about it, i'm particually excited about New Nightmare Freddy, also saw the Ultimate Terminator figure in a store yesterday, those look great.
>>5924321
Its pretty great.
>>5924362
What NECA products would you like to discuss, anon? I can't help but notice that you just skipped the opportunity to post about other lines in favor of complaining. Perhaps you're the problem here.
>>5924305
are you five
>"lol baited"
Is the paint quality on Ultimate Ash's face consistent enough for me to buy one online or do I need to find one in person if I don't want him cross-eyed?
>>5924630
I don't think there's enough out there yet to come to a general conclusion. Either give it time, or buy now and return to a store later.
>>5924257
Depending on the price, I might get this just to mod the skinned corpse to be articulated (plus the Xeno skull). I don't own any Preds, either.
>>5924236
Mine are kinda loose too. Still some minor resistance, but not enough to make me feel safe about moving them too much.
Also, Bukkake-morph is my first Warrior mold Xeno (own Big Chap, Isolation, and had a Dog). Boy have I been missing out!
Heated up Drakes grappling hook hand so it can hold the AK instead. Is anyone really going to use the grappling hook? Such a shame he didn't come with cliff hanging hands.
>>5924861
He doesn't need them though...
I need Neca to hurry up and release those next two Godzilla figures.
>>5925166
Why not?
>>5924728
>Also, Bukkake-morph is my first Warrior mold Xeno (own Big Chap, Isolation, and had a Dog). Boy have I been missing out!
The Aliens Warrior body is like, 80% the same as the Big Chap and Isolation Xeno, though.
>>5924321
Nice. Are any of the kaiju still worth getting?
>>5924362
How bout them rocky figs? Thinking of getting drago, rocky w/flag, and rocky w/belt. Thoughts on them?
>>5925862
They were all a little clunky for my tastes, but I liked knifehead and land otachi.
>>5925879
>land otachi
What about the winged version?
>>5925862
All of them that isn't series 1 Knifehead. I can't imagine the after market costs though...
>>5925888
I never got her, but she's probably about the same.
Do want.
>>5924346
what was the cost? keep us posted on this one please. Really wanna know their quality
My LCS is a NECA retailer and they upcharge all of them by 10 dollars. Whats the deal with that, can retailers charge whatever they want?
>>5926051
Yeah basically. Welcome to capitalism
So is Hudson the best face sculpt or is Hudson the best face sculpt?
>>5925988
What concerns me about this Harley figure is the fact that the hips look very limited in joint movement. No evidence of knee joints as well. Plus that face is very bland for hyperactive character.
I already have the PAK version of AC Harley, which has lots more expression, more joints, and bigger boobies than this overscaled, overpriced statue. Pass.
>>5926051
Oh you have no idea. If you want a prime example, and one that'll infuriate you, look up Toys R Us' "bump up" program.
Hell, TRU during Christmas will always raise the price on the most popular toy of the season. Zhu Zhus started out at $6, then went to $9-$10 when they got popular.
>>5926051
That's nothing Anon, in my country Neca stuff costs between 3 and 4 times the original price.
Funny thing is that, because of this, rare stuff like pic related or Big Red cost about the same as the new stuff.
>>5924236
How would you use pledge to fix the xeno's knees? Mostly all I'm finding is figures with ball joints, would I just try to work it in the joint since I can't take his legs apart?
got the albino alien, joints are tight and good paint apps; wish the transition from shin to foot wasnt so rough, the foot is completely pink and little white
>>5925928
If they'd given her feet capable of grabbing robits, I woulda gone for her.
As it is, I'm satisfied with land version.
>>5926331
Licensing reasons. 7" versions are only released as promotional items through loopholes.
>>5926295
>If they'd given her feet capable of grabbing robits
I thought the included stand had a bit that took care of that?
>>5926295
That's what the stand is for.
>>5926069
Indeed.
>>5926458
Yeah, no. It doesn't work like that.
That's a pretty bullheaded stance to take, forcing you to miss out on an excellent figure.
When is Ultimate Jason coming out? I thought it was supposed to be August.
>>5926482
If I'm gonna spend $60ish bucks on mostly the same toy, it needs to wow me with its differences.
The wings are WHOA, but it's just not enough for me to want to drop the cash.
I had to go with one and I really like the long tail and vampire bat like stance of the ground form.
is this delayed?
>>5926818
october
>>5925988
I really don't like how NECA never makes a consistent lineup between their 1/4 scale figures based on their appearances.
>makes Ledger Joker and goes for BB suit Baleman instead of his TDK suit
>makes Keaton Batman but only makes Penguin/Catwoman with the line sorely missing a Nicholson Joker
>makes AO and AK Batman but makes AC Harley Quinn
You're basically better off buying them as one-and-done figures for display. Seriously I'd buy more of their 1/4 figures if they actually bothered to implement some level of consistency.
>>5927085
It's all about rights and costs dude.
They didn't do Nicholson because he charges an EXUBERANT amount for his facial likeness, and they weren't going to drop that kind of dough.
>>5926071
If you look close there are definitely lines for knee joints
>>5924136
It's a cow fetus
>>5927113
If you like fetuses you should se my other shelf.
>>5927088
Makes sense and that's perfectly understandable on NECA's part. Still I find it to be such a shame since it gives me less incentive to collect whole lines.
>>5927162
Sure, I understand that feeling 100%. Who knows what they'll show at NYCC though...
I just got the Ultimate Terminator 2 Arnold
for 22.99. Fuck you scalpers! I win!
Haha what the fuck
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/custom-manderin-predator-and-predator-hunter-dutch-figures-/272386732999?hash=item3f6b83b3c7:g:PCoAAOSwLnBX5EEy
>>5927499
probably has more articulation than any NECA figure out there.
>>5927565
They're literally repainted NECA figures.
My tru has a shit neca collection now. Is this the case nationwide? Used to carry basically all the releases...
Per twitter, even Randy doesn't know where the Vasquez cable plugs in. Weird.
>>5927889
It goes in her belt.
>>5927899
>>5927357
You can literally but him on the toys r us website for 2 dollars more than that with free shipping

Sweeeeeet.
Yo Ash vs Evil Dead IN STOCK RIGHT NOW on Neca's ebay store!!!!
>>5927615
Hit and miss in Milwaukee. But I got lucky with Drake, and the Contra pack.
>>5928056
Nice. Just bought a set, thanks for the heads up
>>5928015
That was a nice ....stealth reveal.
Which Clubber Lang should I get?
>>5928368
Blue trunks. Even though the straight face looks better.
>>5928015
Damn it, I thought I was done getting stealth Preds after the "Water Emergence" Jungle Hunter but now they drag me back in.
I'm just too much of a sucker for any decent-looking variant of the Jungle Hunter.
>>5928509
Plus they're using the new body for it, so that's groovy.
>>5928015
That will make some excellent nature pics!
I picked up an extra purple foot soldier for a pretty damn good price, and it wasn't a bootleg, so that's a plus. Figure it'd help "round out" the look of this grouping. Since the purple Foot were the most common/more right.
Decided to stick the hose in her butt last night. I'm pretty happy with how it went, so I'll just leave it there for now.
>>5929429
>and it wasn't a bootleg
They make bootlegs of these now?
Just ordered neca Nathan Drake for $32, he worth that price?
>>5924861
Reminds me of. The World War Z figure.
>>5929927
They're either bootlegs or factory rejects, or stolen ones. No idea, but yeah, they're flooding eBay now.
>>5930028
Ah, I see. I'm gonna take a chance with a Turtles set and see what they're like. Wish me luck.
>>5929990
Hell no. I saw him in person yesterday and he seems off to me and definitely has a diaper thing going on where his crotch is concerned. Just looked weird to me.
>>5930155
The diaper thing is somewhat concerning but I've seen some decent pictures of him. Worst case he gets returned
>>5930155
Wrooooong. The figure's awesome. It's a weird release, random at least, but he's one everyone should pick up. It's great for a generic guy to fight Preds, too.
>>5930198
The face sculpt has a huge under bite and doesnt capture the handsome softer side of the actual character
Huh, how tall is drake? I figured he was their usual 7" scale but I saw someone say he fit with 6" stuff.
>>5930198
Yeah except that the face is terrible and the eye paint is a mess. It looks nothing like the promo pics
>>5929429
You would think the purple Foot were more common and they certainly were in the cartoon (I don't think I ever saw different coloured Foot in the cartoon) but in the games they were surprisingly rare.
>>5931135
Yeah, it's all about expanding the enemy roster. It's funny, but I don't think I ever had a disconnect between playing the game and what the cartoon had...I do really love the different colored Foot though. And there's still like, a maroon color or sorta crimson color'd one that didn't get made. If I remember right.
>>5929429
are these out in china yet?
>>5931196
Looking at all the Hong Kong auctions on eBay with these, yes, I'd say so.
All right! So my Ultimate ED2 Ash came in from TRU, and I have to say...
He's pretty good.
This is basically the Ultimate T2 Arnie for me, again, in that I already have everything here, I just bought it for the new legs. So for me? This isn't a very exciting release. It's still a good, VERY good release, but it doesn't hold as much value for me. I'm happy to have bought it though, because the improvements are welcomed, and I want to support the line so the Ult. Hero Ash comes out too (I'm hoping that one has the alternate grey stripe head that was on an SDCC exclusive).
>>5931246
The paint is super clean. The shirt is painted muckier/darker/sweatier than the first releases, and haven't decided how I feel about that, yet. It's appropriate, but I would've liked more hints of the lighter blue. Not a huge issue though.
>>5931250
The torso seems to be entirely new. It was a rubber overlay on the original figures, so you'd get a kind of "peek" at the skin underneath where the shirt tucks in. But on this figure the shirt sculpt continues on into the waist, no more flesh. What that means is they removed the chest joint the originals had...I think...it doesn't move on mine, so I think it's gone.
To me, that's no big loss, cause it only provided minimal movement anyway. Also everything swaps out really easily without much hassle. Always good.
But again, as someone who owns everything this comes with? Kind of a middling gain. For others that don't have this Ash at all? It's a damn fantastic deal. Outside of some paint variance (I kinda miss the 'sweaty' look the originals had), you're getting a better toy.
>>5927889
>>5927899
>>5929625
I don't know if it's hoses or straps but something in going into her butt
>>5932616
Well, the figure doesn't have loose straps and the smargun cables do seem to go in that general direction, so i'm going with that for the figure, i mean, it's not like it will be wrong doing so or otherwise, at least untill someone actually gets a pic that shows the exact location.
>yfw it was probably just tuck somewhere under her shirt or in her pants and no one cared since it was to dark to see anyway
Seems the AvED figures are shipping out. Dunno if it's just their eBay store so far, anyone with a BBTS order have theirs go out yet?
https://twitter.com/NECA_TOYS/status/780436757703696389
https://twitter.com/Sergeevna24/status/780556008703655936
>>5933808
Mine are coming from the eBay store.
Got the Ultimate T800 today, thanks for the suggestion guys, i fucking love it, one of the coolest figures in my collection this far.
>>5934119
Damn cellphone turning my pics... whatever i guess, will try to take some better pics once i'm home.
>>5934119
Is the mini gun the same soft plastic warped piece of shit that came with the earlier version?
>>5934166
I wouldn't know, never saw the first version.
Don't want to ask randy on Twitter because I'm sure it's been answered a million times. How much are the turtles going to retail at
>>5935304
Which? The big movie figures? Pre orders list them for about $100ish.
Does anyone know if any of the aliens figures come with a facehugger?
>>5935933
You can buy the accessory pack, the carton of eggs, or the ripped in half Bishop to get a facehugger. Since you're asking this I'll assume you don't know much about them, so I feel I should let you know that they don't actually hug faces.
>>5935953
Oh I never realized the egg carton had one in there, I thought it just had a bunch of eggs. Thanks for the tip anon
>>5927158
>>5935960
Yeah, it comes with six eggs. 3 closed, 3 open, and 3 facehuggers
So does anyone have the new Ash VS Evil Dead figures yet?
Looking to maybe pick up the blue shirt version, but was wondering if the red work shirt version's heads would swap with the blue. I've never bought any NECA's before either, so are there any known faults with their stuff I should be wary of?
>>5936281
Yeah they can swap. There's pics here of Hero Ash with all four heads.
http://news.toyark.com/2016/09/15/toyark-1st-look-ash-vs-evil-dead-series-1-neca-221553
Dunno if it's still a common problem for NECA figures to have stuck joints, the last couple figures I've gotten from them have been fine.
My first NECA figure.
How'd I do?
>>5936505
Forgot pic
>>5936507
It's a Terminator, cool. Have you displayed it with anything else?
>>5936510
I'm afraid to take it out the box. It's just so gorgeous.
I cannot wait for this motherfucker.
Ash has a double jointed elbow!
Is this a first for NECA?
>>5937107
AVP Preds and some Aliens have them. First for a human though
>>5937107
No, pretty common when they feel it fits the character/costs out.
>>5937125
So who other than Ash has them?
>>5937137
Aliens, predators, kratos, the foot ninja etc
Took a few better pics of the terminator, probably one of the coolest figures i have.
>>5937144
Only seven Predators out of the whole line have them. So them, Kratos, anything using the Foot arms, Aliens, and now Ash
Hardly common
>>5937157
A predator would probably still win in a fight though.
>>5936775
>using shmonsterarts effect set
Has anyone tried making or giving Tyrael wings?
It's honestly kind of bullshit they'd make the figure and skimp out on even just static wings,
Holy shit WHAT? Did the mods already delete some posts? Jesus how bad did it get?
>>5937261
Unless there was a bunch in the last 20 minutes, no. This thread has been pretty decent so far. Hope I didn't just jinx it.
>>5937277
NECA is shit.
I'm just kidding. I like their figured but I wish they had a little more articulation. Double jointed elbows, ab crunches, better ankle articulation, and better range of motion in the head would be great.
Debating on ordering the Evil Dead figures online or saving a few bucks on shipping or just being patient and checking out tru next week.
>>5937285
My city is like scalper capital. I just can't beat these fuckers who are always lining up so early outside the stores.
>>5937297
Same here, I live in Huntington Beach and the nearest tru is like the only one unless you ant to travel like 3 cities. I saw the Contra duo one day, went back the next and haven't seen them since. Maybe I'll just grab them online.
>>5937285
They don't need more articulation than what they give them typically. I'd rather keep the price affordable than more unneeded joints and a higher cost.
>>5937306
You might not need them, but I want my T-800 to move like Spider-Man.
>>5937306
Yeah, it's not really needed but I like the option of being able to put them in more expressive and dynamic poses.
I personally wouldn't mind paying $5 to $10 more dollars for more articulation, but I may be in the minority.
I do like their sculpts though, the Mirage Turtles are some of my favorite figures.
>>5937285
To be fair we are starting to see better articulation on a few ultimates and others, probably not going to be standard, but it's happening, that's not to mention Dog Alien, AvP Warrior etc whose thin frame and biomechanical looks actually allow for such extreme articulation and poses.
>>5924346
Probably factory seconds which are straight up stolen, these figures are too recent for bootlegs to exist kind of like with the BatGremlin.
>>5937243
I was thinking about it when I first opened him but, honestly after a few days, I don't really mind. He still has the look without them, and realistically, he has trouble standing as it is without the huge backpack he'd need.
I need some some help, NECA General.
I'm debating whether I should go for Ultimate NoES3 Freddy since I missed out on NoES1 Freddy, AvED Hero Ash, or the Ultimate Police Station Assault Terminator as my next purchase since I can only get one as of right now.
Which would you guys recommend?
>>5937361
I'd say Freddy since you missed out on the other one
>>5937351
Will hastings be carrying them?
>>5937361
That's a tough choice dude. Those are all really good figures to go with... I would say either the Ash or Freddy, and from there just whichever one you have more of an affinity for.
>>5937523
Man, give me Final Wars Godzilla.
>>5937525
that too, and suit accurate millennium godzilla
Are we being raided by butthurt kaiju fags? Awesome. Let's get them banned!
>>5937554
What the hell is a kaiju.
>google search
Wait... Thats what Japan calls monsters and deagons?
Any news for these sexy guys?
>>5937306
>They don't need more articulation than what they give them typically
I want my figures to move like Revoltech's. Theres really nothing bad about more articulation at all.
>>5937584
Supposedly an October release.
>>5937587
Other than it screws the sculpt up, almost always.
>>5937593
They're already up for sale on eBay's NECA store.
I just want to know what their articulation is going to be like. Ash will probably be my first NECA.
>>5937593
I can't wait for them
>>5937613
sweet!
>>5937476
Hastings doesn't exist anymore
>>5934241
Well is the mini gun a soft plastic warped piece of shit?
>>5937789
Not that anon and I didn't own the original either. It's a little soft and mine's a little warped, but I could just heat it and bend it straight if I wanted.
It's not noticeable if you don't look hard.
>A couple new, or sort of new #alien offers going out to retailers tomorrow for end of year availability. Any guesses?
Randy tweeted that. Curiouser and curiouser.
>>5937243
Speaking of which, when is the next two HOTS waves supposed to come out?
I've started playing it and want a Xul fucking badly.
>>5937881
Should be closer to the end of the year. If last year is any indication probably late October then late December/January for the second half and the deluxe.
>>5937890
That's good to know, I'm incredibly excited for Diablo assuming he's the deluxe.
Brightwing and Murky are such a waste though.
>>5937903
I remember Randy saying something along the lines of blizzard chooses all the characters that get made, so I'm assuming they're using it as a way to get their popular characters done. I've never played it, but maybe they're big with their WOW crowd. I know I've been waiting for a decent SC marine forever, so I'm hyped for raynor and I don't really care about hots.
>>5937903
I wouldn't say Murky and Brightwing are a waste, they're a 2 for 1 and getting more characters done. I also happen to enjoy both so I'm definitely happy with them. All picks so far are winners to me. Too bad Valla got kicked out of wave 2 but Sylv is a fine replacement.
>>5937918
Hopefully we get Tychus as well, maybe some of the Protoss. Zeratul and Artanis are just asking for a figure.
>>5937930
That's one way to put it I suppose. I'll buy them if it means we get more figures. I'm surprised they havent tried to release the existing figures with recolors as Con exclusives yet.
this is some OC DONUT STEEL tier bio right here
>>5937968
Yeah, but it's part of the fun of this Kenner line, y'know? If it gives them a reason to be silly while giving us some groovy toys, fantastic.
>>5937979
i'm not dissing the line, just that that bio is hillariously awful writing
>>5937980
They'll most likely have pretty limited articulation given that they'll each be maybe 3" each.
>>5937968
So Dio the predator huh?
I can work with that.
>>5937151
Not even a fan of the movies, but I'm still tempted to get one of these just because of how badass he looks.
How's the articulation?
Just put my order in for Hero Ash since I'm burnt out on hunting Toys R Us for Marvel Legends Deadpool, and I don't want to go through that shit again.
Hoping for an Ultimate Evil Dead 2 Hero Ash.
NECA did Heroes of the Storm tight? How is the Lich King figure?
>>5938111
pretty great looking, not much on the articulation side though
>>5938094
It does look badass, i'm more of an Aliens kind of guy myself, but wanted something from a different movie for a change, was really surprised by how cool the figure looks in person.
Articulation is good in imo, no double joints, but you can get pretty much all the poses he does in the movie, it takes some fiddling he can also hold all the weapons pretty well, one curious thing is that he has more articulation on the left leg for some reason, the right one has the standard knee and ankle articulation, the left one has the same plus thigh and shin cut swivel.
>>5938111
I like him. He's stiff, but he's got amazing detail, and he also scales alright with a lot of 6" stuff surprisingly. He's still 11 bucks on blizzard's store, get on that.
Just want to say thanks to the Mods for keeping our thread and board clean, must be a pain in the ass to delete all the flame war and shitposting, you guys are alright.
>>5938143
>one curious thing is that he has more articulation on the left leg for some reason, the right one has the standard knee and ankle articulation, the left one has the same plus thigh and shin cut swivel.
Holdover from the original release. Eventually we'll probably get swappable damaged parts that plug on there.
>>5938143
You have to get the T1000. It's just as amazing if not a tiny bit better. The only thing that makes the T800 win overall is the fact its based Arnold
>>5924725
>I might get this just to mod the skinned corpse to be articulated
Its made of a soft bendy rubber so that probably wont work out too well
>>5938233
>Its made of a soft bendy rubber
Hold on, I thought this is supposed to be hard statueshit. Did Randy said it is made of flexible rubber like pic?
>>5938256
Don't have it, but I'm guessing it's probably more like their baby Otachi
>>5937930
Valla probably just got pushed to wave 3. That wave will probably have Tracer as well so I wonder just what the other figures of the wave could be.
>>5938121
I just wish he had "glowing" blue eyes instead of the regular human eyes.
>>5924404
Are you a woman?
>>5938243
>dubs
>quads
The fuck are you on about
>>5938413
How new are you? Seriously. No one can be this new. Wait, its 2016.. Nevermind.
>>5938393
I wish they'd had just gone with the mostly-shadow face and visible mouth like in game.
That or at least not give him fucking lip stick.
>>5938390
Well lets look at each wave so far
>Wave 1-2
>Three Warcraft characters (One Deluxe)
>One Diablo character
>One Starcraft character
>Wave 3-4
>3 Warcraft Character (set of BW and Murky counted as one)
>One Diablo Character (Deluxe Diablo)
>One Starcraft Character
So following this pattern we can expect the next Deluxe to be a Starcraft character and of the characters that are well-known enough and large or intricate enough to fit that we have
>Kerrigan
>Tychus
>Lt. Morales
>Any of the Zerg
So that would make the wave assuming it would follow the same pattern
>3 Warcraft characters
My guesses would be Uther, Tyrandee, Kael'Thalas (would never happen but i'd die if they made him)
All of them are popular enough that I think they'd have a good chance of getting a wave while also being enough of "padding" for it as well
>One Deluxe Starcraft character
See above
>One Diablo Character (Valla)
OR, they could throw the pattern out and substitute one of the Warcraft characters out with Tracer, which would seem likely.
>>5938457
i really am hyped fro thrall
finally an orc figure
>>5938463
Yeah, his articulation looks promising aside from his legs.
>>5938465
those braids seem like they'll be a problem...
i really wish they gave the HOTS figures double jointed elbows, but i'll take what i can get
>>5938473
Looking at the way they are seated on his armor, I'd guess that they aren't connected to his scalp or head at all. If anything, I bet they're connected at the neck right below where the head is connected and hidden by the ponytail. This would allow the head "full" movement while not making it look like his hair isn't attached to his head.
And regarding the articulation, I'm pretty sure they said that the figures are basically made directly from the game models.
>>5938465
there's still no estimation date for this wave right?
>>5938480
Doesnt mean they couldn't take a few liberties and improve it for is fans.
>>5938099
It'll happen, it's too easy of a set to do for it not to happen.
I'm hoping mine show up today.
>>5938194
I am considering it, would be nice to have someone for the T800 to fight, but there are so many Xenos and Preds on my list that i'm actually having trouble getting them all, might actually skip on a few waves to get some other different figures like a Freddy Krueger for example.
>>5938422
There are no dubs nor quads in any of the posts you replied to
>>5938457
For a deluxe StarCraft, I know most use her Maelstrom, but I'd love a deluxe kerrigan with large posable wings and an articulated ultralisk. Might be too much to ask for but that'd be a great set. Sgt hammer also makes sense, and a transforming siege tank would be cool. I wonder if they'd keep her scale to the game. And lost Vikings would make for a fun deluxe set, probably a bit pricier than deluxe.
>>5938256
He said it's more like baby otachi
You guys see they're re-releasing Hicks and Hudson? Fucking awesome. I missed out on pretty much all the marines so this is perfect for me.
>>5925619
>two
I know one of em is 2001 Godzilla, whats the other?
Hicks and Hudson 2-pack re-release coming! An "if you missed out release," basically.
http://necaonline.com/2016/09/aliens-7-scale-action-figures-colonial-marines-30th-anniversary-2-pack/?utm_campaign=marine2packprodpage&utm_source=necafbgplus&utm_medium=social
>>5938758
I wonder if the helmets are removable this time around.
>>5938794
Nope, it says in the link it's alt heads.
>>5938797
Bummer.
>>5938797
Now I feel nourge to rebuy this set. Could've had something special
>>5938758
That's cool, i'm probably going to skip on it though, already have Hudson, Hicks is not hard to get either, in fact i keep wondering if i should get the one without the helmet or the one with the Xeno going boom...
>>5938815
I mean it's still a great release for those that missed out. I think swappable heads is a fine deal, considering.
>>5938758
Too bad I just got my hicks :/
Guess I'll sell my previously owned and get the new pack.
Aliens Arcade Xenomorph!!!!! Fucking awesome!
I loved playing this game. Spent so much money at Aladdin's Castle as a kid.
>>5939102
Beautiful.
>>5939105
I want to eat that xeno.
>>5939112
I bet it tastes like Starburst.
>>5939102
What arcade game is this from? The AvP beat em up by Capcom?
>>5939121
Aliens. The game based on Aliens.
>>5939140
Gotcha. Thanks anon.
>>5938256
hot! now I need it!
>>5939140
You meant Konami's Aliens from the arcade?
C-C-C-C-C-C-C-C'mon! I thought NECA was done with Konami after those previous fuck ups.
>>5939102
>>5939105
I wish they added just a little more pixel details in the lighter shade of pink.
The sprite has at least 4 different shades of pink, but neca just put one hard contrasting pink stripe. In the sprite is just sorta eases into the light, so it's kinda like a gradient, with not much contrast.
I get what they're doing, it's cool, but it would just look so much cooler if they sorta treated that lighter pink how they treated the colors on their NES batman
I want the ballsack alien.
>>5939302
Konami has nothing to do with it, since the IP of the game is owned by FOX, so as long as it's not from a Konami original property, Konami can fuck right off.
Makes me excited for them to do Capcom Predators and Aliens.
>>5939102
Waiting for the green slime egg. Wonder which colored alien is going to be bundled with.
>>5939314
If that's the case, then NECA can't do Capcom's AvP Linn & Dutch figures since those are Capcom's original characters.
And NECA seems to be on bad terms with Capcom as well IIRC.
>>5939334
Capcom's pretty douchey, so who knows what they'd want...
>Having fun with T800
>"Damn, this looks badass!"
>Knock on the door
>"Mail!"
>"mail...? OH SHIT, MAIL!!"
Completely forgot i was waiting for Vasquez, now my desk can barely contain all the badassery.
>>5939349
> no ADIOS on the gun
Life is pain
>>5939334
Is that how it works though? Because it's an AvP game, wouldn't everything be owned by FOX? It's not like FOX invented those pink aliens, Konami did, yet it's still owned/controlled by FOX. Why wouldnt the human characters be the same?
>>5938758
and here I was about to buy a Hudson since I missed him the first time,and even though I already own Hicks,I'm definatly happy since I've been wanting an extra Biehn head for custom purposes
>>5939388
Depends on how the licensing was written up.
>>5939359
Yeah, one of the first things i noticed when assembling the Smart Gun, doesn't bother me, but i might actually grab some ink and pain it myself anyway, just for the hell of it.
Overall i find the figure damn cool.
Fucking aesthetic
>>5939473
Now I want to preorder the T-1000 Ultimate to match it with this fella.
>>5939473
It sure is! What's your favorite head?
>>5939486
Sloppy with a lot of teeth action
>SHIPPED Ash vs Evil Dead – 7" Scale Action Figure – Series 1 - Hero Ash - NECA
>>5939492
Which site?
Still waiting for BBTS
>>5939497
Neca's eBay store. Shipping is kinda high, but whatever.
I'm loving ED209. Is there a trick for the missiles? Mine seem to not slide out too far.
The detail on this figure is immaculate and I can't stop pressing the voice clip button.
>>5939522
They're just really stiff. You can keep pushing on them and they will keep sliding, but I'd recommend being super gentle anyway. I got mine out to a point where I was happy and left it be.
WEEEEEEEEEEE!
>>5939524
Ahh I see thanks.
>>5939490
>liking teeth action
Anyone have that white Alien with the bendy tongue yet? How bendable is it?
>>5939555
The tongue? It's pretty damn malleable. It's just a bendy wire in super squishy rubbery plastic.
>>5939551
Someone saved my pic :)
>>5939555
Pretty bendy
Ash is looking pretty good in some of the pics people are posting.
>>5939779
Oh man, can't wait for my Bruce Campbell figure to arrive. Looks great. I feel like I goofed just getting the hero version though. I hope Eligos and Value Stop Ash will be easy to find at retail.
What's with New Nightmare's Freddy having a lazy eye?
Honest question, it doesn't look bad and actually seems to work well from same angles, but starting directly at him feels really weird, is that particular look from some scene i can't remember?
>>5939996
It's not a lazy eye, he's looking to the left.
Has anyone ever successfully fixed up the weird, blocky blood paint job on the actual Carrie figures vs. the prototype revealed at the Toy Fair? I can get past the face sculpt looking bland compared to the prototype but that dang paint job...
>>5940085
Wow! That is some straight up hasbro level shit! Lol!
>>5939996
He is mean to be looking to his left like the poster image
>>5940085
>add in 2 more hues of red into hair, gloss coat it
>put non-thinned red acrylic paint on toothbrush, run finger across bristles and have it fleck all over the body
>add another lighter hue of red to torso
>do a light random gloss coat application all over
This is like a 1.5 hour job for a beginner to fix, max.
>>5940245
no kidding. what the fuck they barely look alike
A possessed Lem from Ash V Evil Dead would be great
>>5940085
This is where a figure looking glossy would have benefited it.
Fellow collectors, I'd like to put some water into one of the capsules from the creature pack. Will the facehugger's paint get worn after a while? Is there any danger of actually ruining the little guy?
>>5939745
10/10 that face
>>5940479
Probably you will fuck up the lights. Use mineral oil.
>>5940578
I thought the lights were on the other side of the plastic. Anyone confirm this?
>>5940337
Lem was great, really memorable. I'd like more deadites in general. Amanda with an alternate head would be cool.
Hope the show is popular enough to get a lot more figures. Also hope it's not mostly Ash variants, he had two new outfits just in the first episode of season two.
>>5939745
Is this Hudson the same as the one released years ago or did they update the articulation?
>>5940621
I'm with you on wanting more characters, but damn do I want Ash in a Hawaiian shirt like in the season 2 trailer.
I want some Deadites too.
>>5940085
that prototype is amazing. shame the figure is... that.
>>5940837
Shame nothing, the figure is really good in person. For what is basically a statue anyway.
>>5940948
It's disappointing compared to the prototype. Which is what they also use for the stock photos. It's not awful, but if I ordered the figure based on the stock photos, I'd be shocked to received the actual figure.
>>5941026
Welcome to every toy forever.
That is literally a fact of life.
>>5940948
Judging by the piles of unsold ones I've seen over the years, I'm gonna have to disagree.
This pack looks great. NECA's site says it's out in October. Wish it was up with the other figures on their eBay store. Anyone else grabbing one when available?
Those demon children are creepy as fuck.
>>5941047
Be a fag somewhere else. Not everyone liked the remake, dumbshit.
>>5941060
Do you work for NECA? you're so invested
>Order the HOTS Stitches figure because it was on sale on the blizz site on wednesday
>Get home today
>It's already here
That was fucking quick, I haven't even gotten my shipping notice.
>>5941049
Their guy on twitter said it won't be out till November the other day.
>>5941680
Damn, they really ought to update their site. Thank you.
>tfw Hero Ash shipped yesterday and will be here tomorrow
Worth the $7 shipping I guess.
>>5941700
Fuuuck. Wonder when BBTS is getting them.
I expect if I cancel my order to buy them on eBay, BBTS would start sending theirs out.
>>5941711
Depends how fast you want it. Ash came out to about $29 something after shipping which I thought was high, but was shipped priority. I happen to be in California which is where it shipped from so I got lucky.
If bbts is cheaper, I say be patient. If it's only like a $2-3 difference, I say go for it.
>>5940578
The eletronics are safe from the inside of the capsule, have tested it several times now, only way for water to reach the led would be submerging the whole thing in water.
Just ordered my first two NECA's figures today. Ash VS Evil Dead blue shirt Ash and the bendy rapetongue albino xenomorph.
Did I do good?
>>5941830
Ok, do as you please.
>>5941834
I don't have Ash so no thoughts there, but I like the Xeno enough. If it's your first one it's even better as you haven't bought it on different colors already. Beware of loose knees. It's a pretty cool figure all things considered though.
>>5942802
>Beware of loose knees.
If I get shit joints I assume futureshine will do the trick?
