Last Thread....slid off page 10 without a new thread, woops!
Lots of stuff out!

-Ultimate Ash
-Ultimate Freddy Kruger from Nightmare Part 3
-Ultimate Jason Part 3
-New Nightmare Freddy
-Mego style Chop Top
-Mego style "Surgeon" Freddy
-18" Harley Queen (Arkham City)
-Glow in the Dark "Predator Vision" AvP xenomorph
-TRU exclusive red Genocide 2-pack is shipping too!
-clothed "Good Guy" Chucky is shipping out with the Shout! Factory blu-rays
And a ton more, it seems. It's a good month if you're a horror fan.
What'd you buy, what're you waiting on, what're you hoping for?
NYCC has happened, nothing crazy interesting to note. Mirage Foot Clan are shipping out and some have already arrived, huzzah!
Part of series 11, with Lambert and the baby-blue KB Kenner xeno
I keep forgetting about the Cinemachines. But those are out too.
>>5962357
That looks cool. What is it tho?
>>5962362
I don't know. Someone said it was a Predalien from the games? I forget. I thought it was the whale alien from Alien Colonial Marines.
People keep asking about "best Predator" to get or whatever. There is this Ultimate Jungle Hunter coming still.
>>5962368
And Ultimate City Hunter.
>>5962357
Aaahh sheeit RAVAGER DAY ONE BUY
Mega Bloks AVP when??
>>5962376
Does NECA do building block stuff? They seem to have everything else, wouldn't surprise me.
>>5962367
Maybe a Pretorian?
>>5962430
I'm guessing either Scorpion or an incomplete sculpt of the Bull. Head's too small (proportionally) to be something as big as a Praetorian.
Could be wrong, though.
Anyone grabbed the new Genocide 2-pack of red Big Chap and red Dog?
>>5962434
Oh shit, didn't even think of that! Yeah, that could be awesome.
>>5962434
I hope so, but the sculpt would look a lot different. Also you guys think they would keep this wacky color scheme?
It's seriously awesome.
>>5962525
Maybe they put the dome over that sculpt, who knows.
About the color, they kept the translucent green with mantis, so yes, I think so.
>>5962443
>Genocide 2-pack of red Big Chap and red Dog?
What the shit? What!? When was this announced?
>>5962594
Long time back. It's in stock in tru.com right now.
>>5962349
>What'd you buy, what're you waiting on, what're you hoping for?
I bought ultimate Ash, Dream Warriors Freddy, ordered part 3 Jason and picked up the glow in the dark alien.
It doesn't quite glow as much as I hoped it would. Wasn't quite sure what to expect.
As for hoping for I'm pretty caught up with NECA stuff. Might get the surgeon Freddy after I see a toyark photo shoot or something. Ready for that Superman/Ali two pack as well
>>5962349
Can't fucking wait for Scarface and Serpent Hunter, they have got to be the coolest Neca Preds yet.
Please keep the NECA trolling to the other thread, thank you.
>tfw just started buying neca products
>want to talk about other neca products for recommendations and etc.
>everytime I drop in to check on the thread someone is always shitposting
Did anyone else get their shredder set from NYCC yet? I haven't seen any reviews yet.
>>5963046
My tracking says it'll be here tomorrow, so I have that to look forward to after work. Woo!
I'll take some pics then.
What possible pleasure can anyone take from shitposting this much?
Honestly don't understand what motivates someone to go somewhere online to pick fights about things they clearly don't cara about.
>>5962955
Try to post about the stuff you like or want to know about it anyway, with all the shitposting these days some fresh, honest posters would be a welcome change.
Holy fucking shit people no wonder Randy has to take a vacation every few weeks
>>5963233
Dude, just don't read it anymore. Whenever I see shitposting going on in these threads I just go check out another thread and wait until it dies down. It's not worth it.
>>5962955
Well what'd you buy? What caught your purdy little eye?
>>5963335
>>5963249
Well I recently got Illidan as my first because of the sale and a coupon I found for Blizzard Gear on Twitter
I really love him. He looks really good and I didn't expect him to be so poseable.
I want to dive into some more, so I've been eyeing the Gipsy Danger Ultimate and some of bootleg Turtles since I already missed out on the originals.
Just got my ultimate ash today. That leg articulation is fantastic but he still doesn't hold his gun too great without fidgeting. Can't wait for hero ash.
Any recommendations on where to expand on horror figures? The retro cloth line seems great for Jasons and a couple of special freddys, though seeing how nice ash is makes me wonder if I should just cave and get the ultimate figures instead
>>5963556
>3MB pic, still manages to be a blurry
goddamn get rid of that potato, invest in a proper cam and learn posing, man
>>5963545
arthas is pretty cool looking though not as articulated and i've heard stitches is fucking awesome
>>5963596
I was actually thinking about picking
Arthas and Tyrael up at least. Especially at that price
The figure set is just phenomenal. The accessories,articulation to the amazing blood splatter on his forehead. This figure is pretty goat for any Evil Dead fan.
I can't wait for the triple pack I'll probably buy all of the figures from this entire line.
>>5963759
Heh, I like what you've done with his hand. Very nice. And yeah, it's a fantastic figure, well worth a purchase.
>>5963759
Dammit. I have mine displayed as Deadite Ash but now I want to buy another one to display him as regular ash.
>>5963596
Yes, everyone should own Stitches.
Updates to my NECA horror shelf. Top middle is saved for the new Jason. The accessories make it kind of cramped but they're so fucking cool
>>5963820
Cropped
>>5963781
Somehow, one of the greatest cellphone pictures I've ever took was of Stitches.
>>5963825
Hey-hey, someone who actually has some Cult Classics. Very nice.
>>5963825
Weird Al is my favorite horror movie monster.
>>5963545
I got tyrael and arthas in that sale and they were both pretty cool. Arthas has way better articulation if that's your bag, though.
I also REALLY like ultimate gipsy danger, but keep in mind that the elbow hinges breaking seems to be a pretty widespread thing. The hinge itself is probably too brittle already, but then the balljoints for the different forearms are incredibly tight so changing them out puts a ton of stress on it.
>>5963874
Cult classics were the tits man, hell I think they hold up pretty well even today
>>5963825
>american psycho
i love the movie, but the face on that figure kills it for me.
>>5963902
Agreed. Hell, the Bubbah-Ho-Tep and others are still pretty spectacular, albeit statues. I miss those awesome bases they came with.
Hello, can anyone tell me if they already made bootlegs of the neca contra set?
No, I don't want ANOTHER bootleg, I'm already dealing with one from ebay, I'm more familiar with other toys getting bootlegs but not neca so I need some help.
The figures look fine but the box looks like it has scan lines like some ko transformers boxes I've had, by fine general neca quality frm their video game series, passable for a video game look but nothing serious, I just need some warning signs, and before you suggst, no, didn't buy it from a chinese seller but from a local, it was just cheaper than the going rate online.
Pic unrelated (though I did grow up with probotector, but "censored" contra never gets any love)

>>5964430
Dva is a deluxe figure that won't get released until the line is canned, sry.
>>5964219
Yeah they need to bring those back, preferably with the ultimate line. Imagine the kind of display pieces we could've gotten with Freddy, Ash, etc.
I wouldn't even mind if they had to raise the price point
>>5964705
I feel sad that you do not know the joys of playing the little Korean girl in the bunny mech. Or heck, you could even be flying Egyptian rocket lady or fat Chinese winter girl if that's more your passion.

I've had mine since last week but I haven't bothered to open it yet sadly.
>>5964789
Wish that old concept art of her with fat tits was the one they went with.

They'd fuck it up and not get the cute anime style. Has to be Japan

So, lots of new pics for you guys, please enjoy.

so other than the chest joint and double jointed elbows, what are the other articulation improvements? Trying to decide if it's worth buying a third city hunter.
>>5965019
>>5965020
As far as i'm aware it's just that for articulation, the other selling points would be the new paiting, the arm panel, extra head/hands and accessories, i'm also not sure if it's worth since i too already have a City Hunter.

>>5965113
>>5964955
I kinda wish Scarface came with more weapons, giving his "Ultimate" status and the huge arsenal in the game, but i can see why they'd pick those weapons in particular, they certaily have the most unique looks.
Still, i might end up trying to build more weapons for it myself, would be cool to pair Scarface's maul with a glave for extra gory cutting action.
I wonder if they will ever release other unique costumes of the game.
>>5965102
So awesome to finally have these after so long.
>>5965121
Nah dog, it's gotta open more than that.

Any ideas what license/s are probably gettin accessory packs?
Thinking maybe one of the ones they've been doing Ultimates for lately. Terminator, Evil Dead, Nightmare on Elm Street or Friday the 13th. Godzilla?
>>5965155
I could see Terminator getting one (they did show off the endoskeleton arm in a jar from T2), hmm...maybe an AvP one with like, I don't know...diorama pieces? Not sure.
>>5964246
Anyone have any idea or am I just being picky because the box text on mine is iffy?
>>5964246
As far as I know, there aren't any bootlegs for this set yet. Nothing that I've heard about anyway!
>>5965182
Oh yeah, I forgot the arm.
I'm trying to remember the name of a Predator that I saw a while ago on this thread, but for the life of me I can't. It had netting on its chest, dark dreadlocks, was kind of a brown and yellow color, and had armor on its wrist with spikes.
>>5965344
So.... Every fucking predator? Nice description you literal moron. Kys.
>>5965351
to be fair that does cross a few Predators out of the list.
>>5965346
if you had you would see how inaccurate this is
>>5963825
Gay
>>5965355
Ok so like 90% of preds. Absolutely covers all movie preds. I guess you could take out most of the vidya preds and almost all of the kenner ones ceot a few.
>>5965373
yeah, also one or two from the movies, Shaman for example is pretty white, don't remeber any brown or yellow on him.
I do thing Anon is talking about the alien one though, you know, that one that hunts stuff.
>>5965379
Fine, Shaman and Ill raise you the grey pirate Elder predator.
>>5965351
>he admits that he bought the same figure 35 times
>calls someone else a moron
Neca General, folks.
>>5965397
>He baits
>Waits for reply
4Chan, folks.
>>5965359
I saw it last night, and it's not inaccurate outside of a slightly shorter tail.
>>5965400
That's not me. I legitimately am trying to remember the one. I think it had a really bright color, not neon, don't think it was blood. Maybe outfit trim?
>>5965403
- eyes facing forward, this is inaccurate
- proportions are off, stylized even
- head is too big, and jaw looks retarded
- snout looks comparable to something like a person pressing down on their nose
>>5965411
What was his gimmicK? Not trying to troll but that legit is the vaguest description of a pred and applies to almost all. What was his armor like? A unique mask? Any weapons? Did it have an alient head mounted on a pike? Any trophies? Anything unique about the pred? Thats what differentiates them. Did it seem like one from a movie
>>5965415
-Wrong, that's just the paint
-wrong
-wrong
-and super wrong
>>5965415
>>5965403
>>5965421
just gonna interject for a bit, it's fine if you guys find the figure great or innacure, really, people should have different opinions, just please, try to keep it civilized, we always have a shitposting festival when people start arguing about what's accurate or not, it would be nice to see people actually dicussing in a smart manner for a change.
>>5965419
I really can't remember the mask, and I don't think it came with an alien head. At least that wasn't its focus. It had a really bright color element to it, an orange or red.
>>5965411
Think its one of these? Or more like they came out of a movie and not so 'cartoony'
This is so good that I'm starting to panic and hoping to God my pre-order with EE actually goes through. I need this. I need this hard.
>>5965424
Here Anon, this should help, can you see the one you are looking for?
T-U-R-T-L-E...
>>5965424
Before Anon find it on >>5965431 i'm gonna bet on Lava Planet Pred.
>>5965446
Big Red's a slick figure. If you can get one. And one that isn't a bootleg.
>>5965446
Yay! Glad you found him. Love mine, he was the first NECA pred I bought. I think he's pretty expensive now so good luck.
>>5965446
To think there's one sitting in a shelf near where i study and no one bothers to buy it. They also have a Shaman Pred there that i keep eyeballing.
>>5965439
One of my favs. Looks great in the right light like in this pic.
>>5965423
This anon >>5965415 might be a little too on-the-nose but I'm sad to say that he's right, it looks really inaccurate as far as I can tell.
Honestly it almost seems stylized due to how much more "chunky" it looks compared to how it looks. While yes it should have chubby parts like the legs, it's still meant to look slightly elongated than a regular Godzilla (hence the first two forms even resembling some kind of eel abomination) but NECA's attempt makes it look like a regularly proportioned Goji with some outer sculptural changes made to resemble Shin Goji's fucked up appearance.
Really torn about this. I know NECA is generally the cheaper option and my usual go-to for Godzilla figures, but now I'm seriously considering just throwing down the extra cash for the MonsterArts since it seemed to capture the new design's overall vibes a lot better.
>>5965344
Wasp predator?
>>5965476
It probably would've looked better if they made him a bit bigger than the usual Goji scale
>>5965476
>NECA's attempt makes it look like a regularly proportioned Goji with some outer sculptural changes made to resemble Shin Goji's fucked up appearance
This sums it up pretty well. Shin Goji is real weird looking while this just kinda looks like a regular Godzilla figure. But for $20 it'll be a decent place holder until they make the SHMA I really want.
>>5965429
I'm hoping they manage to shrink them down and put out a convention exclusive boxed set at some point like they did with the Shredder and Foot
>>5965476
Agreed. I'm really not digging how big the NECA's head is looking. But for twenty bucks I'm totally getting it since the SHMA alternative is way overpriced, especially considering the less than stellar paint and texture of it.
These guys are the bees knees!!
>>5965421
I just got back from watching the movie, and not once does he look foward as the paint on the eyes suggest.
Shits going down son!
>>5965540
Anyone know where i can still get the trophy skull pack for non rape prices? Im ok with some statuatory rape. Just not the kind of rape ebay is charging.

>I'm seriously considering just throwing down the extra cash for the MonsterArts since it seemed to capture the new design's overall vibes a lot better.
You've got some really poor life choices under your belt, don't you? The figure looks excellent, but you'd rather waste money on a far more inaccurate mess like the Monsterart?
>>5965206
Thank you!
>>5965950
>far more inaccurate mess like the Monsterart?
What? I know its far from perfect but "far more inaccurate" is so wrong. It's more accurate than the NECA, compare the proportions
>>5966019
Nah man, I agree with him, the NECA looks way better. It's barely a contest. The MA has more articulation, that seems to be it's only upper hand here.
>>5966031
Yeah and no one who pays the extra money ever even poses their shit. Shelf dust all day.
>>5966041
Yuck...
Speaking of, do those room dust filter towers work? Does anyone have one of those?
>>5966019
Whilst i think the neca does have a more accurate side profile on the head i think the rest is off his proportions are a bit funky looking and not to mention his tail is too short compared to monsterarts.
>>5966051
Also wtf is going on with the neca one's eyes?
Shin Godzilla looks so retarded, its no wonder the toy companies can't get him right.
>>5966120
>We're running out of Preds to make at this point,
They've still barely touched the Dark Horse comic Predators, and really only just started on the game Predators. There's still plenty. And that's not even keeping in mind that they want to remake Wolf on his own new body, and whatever remakes they will inevitably do on these new Ultimate bodies.
Ash with cadaver ass on his head, when?
Has anyone confirmed that the bone throne is up for mass productions and sale, rather than just a con diorama?
>>5966200
It will be per @NECA_TOYS
>>5966220
What does the word "per" means in here?
I just got my genocide pack and the oldchap has his clear dom half off, what can I do about this?
>>5966259
glue it back on?
>>5966288
I guess I'll buy some superglue and try that.
>>5962362
Probably panther, but it also looks just like the xenos in the genocide comic.
>>5964996
Still don't get the point of this one. Looks so much like the other AvP preds. I've bought them all, but I'm skipping this one. Its just more the same.
>>5966228
Necas twitter says it will be for sale
>>5966379
It's in the movie. That's the point of it. For people that want to create the flashback scene.
>>5966379
Well, they did released every Predator to ever appear in a movie so far, makes sense that Young Blood gets a figure, but i agree, not gonna get it either.
>>5966142
Oh I know we still have plenty to go, but im talking about the most mainstream Preds
>>5965455
Several anons bought the big red bootleg and said it was worth it.
Hell I have half of the lost tribe as bootlegs and they are stellar.
>>5965540
Where'd you get those guns?
>>5966142
Randys also said about eventually upgrading the Super Preds
>>5966120
>Running out of preds
Still have almost all the video game press, a ton of comic preds, a new film next year, and a new Dark Horse series is on the horizon.
>>5966619
I'm fearful for what the new movie will bring, but there's no way NECA won't produce a figure from it.
>>5966626
Worst case scenario the figures will the best thing to come out of the movie, that's how a lot of people feel about the Neca AvP Preds.
>>5966259
someone else tweeted at randy with the same problem and he told em to hit up NECA's customer service
>>5966435
Got them in the Endo skeleton 2pack. Sold the endos kept the guns lol
>>5966626
I have faith, its Shane Black, the first guy to ever get killed by a Predator on screen so if thats not magic destiny or some shit I dont know what is
>>5966019
Why does this godzilla look like a lizard abortion? I also saw a screen cap of his tail made up of like human bodies. What the fuck?
>>5966886
Because its an attempt at bringing Godzilla back to his roots. Godzilla's iconic skin wrinkles where actually meant to resemble radiation scars. Over time his design was stylized to look more natural, but he was originally meant to look like a radiation victim dinosaur.
>>5966891
It brought Godzilla back to being a total bore minus the...what, 8 minutes of actual Godzilla time? At least 2014 Godzilla was exciting for most of it.
>>5966847
He ruined iron man. I have nofaith in Shane Hack.
When is my nigga Dick Jones going to get a NECA randy?
>>5966829
How does one go about this? I wont even be around for the other two-pack but I got it pre-ordered

>>5967086
Thanks man, I have the exact same issue. Probably a bad batch was sent out
>>5966902
I'd buy that for 20 dorrars!!
>>5965950
>You've got some really poor life choices under your belt, don't you?
What the fuck is this shit supposed to mean?
I know that company-warring faggots are practically a norm here, but you're kidding yourself if you think that the MonsterArts is an "inaccurate mess" compared to the much more chunky NECA figure, in which the execution of the latter actually throws off the overall intended look of its elongated look by having the same ol' regular proportions of an average Godzilla design.
But hey if having a less accurate figure for a cheaper price makes you feel all warm and fuzzy inside then by all means, but don't be an ass about it.
>>5966031
>It's barely a contest.
Pic very much related.
>>5966041
I suspect you speak from experience while thinking that everyone else is just like you, huh?
>>5967310
>I suspect you speak from experience
I don't think he speaks from experience when he can't even pay the extra money for them.
Sorry to interrupt the company wars, but can someone post high quality pics of the Ultimate Jungle Hunter Predator? I don't have any of the Pred figures and I think this might be the one I get to add to my villains shelf.
Where do I find the Team Fortress 2 figures at? Anyone know?
>>5967365
ebay
>>5967371
>eBay
Please, get serious for a moment. They just released the Spy and Engineer and I missed out on my other favorite classes and I don't want to buy a damn figure for over 70$ just because its hard to find but still out there in the wild.
>>5965950
>The figure looks excellent, but you'd rather waste money on a far more inaccurate mess like the Monsterart?
If the MonsterArts is an inaccurate mess, then the NECA figure is deviantart-tier levels of fanart.
>>5963854
reminds me of clay fighters.
>>5965950
>>5967386
Again, I usually love NECA's work, but it really looks like they missed the mark here.
>>5967383
>They just released the Spy and Engineer
No, you get serious. Those figures are like two years old. The only place you're going to find TF2 NECA is on ebay.
>>5967394
I feel the same. 80% of the figures I own are NECA, but how anyone can claim the NECA figure is genuinley more accurate/better than the SHMA is beyond me. But that's nothing new I guess.
I'm not even saying the SHMA is perfect either.
Both figures need to fix the heads and the spines. NECA needs to also make those arms smaller, goddamn. And just stretch it out in general.
>>5967405
Exactly, the SHMA is by no means perfect and has its own share of issues, but the NECA figure really looks off-model in terms of the overall build and proportions of the body.
>>5967394
Looks better than the movie version to me. I'm 100% okay with that.
>>5962368
When.
>>5966902
Someone tweet randy this
Ash vs Evil Dead in stock on TRU.com!
Predator accessory pack in stock on TRU.com!
Lots and lots of money disappearing from my wallet!
>>5966902
I'm still dying for figures from the Miller/Simonson Robocop vs the Terminator comic.
>>5967632
Which is perfectly fine. I mean, in of itself it's still a decent looking figure, rather it's just not wholly accurate to what Godzilla looks like in the new film. I wouldn't mind even getting both figures since I'm quite fond of his new look in general.
>>5967651
Thanks for the heads up, cancelled my BBTS preorder for the Ash figures.
>>5967394
If it's the head size you autists keep spazing over, you can quit now. According to Randy the NYCC photos don't do it justice. Here's a better pic.
>>5967825
it's not perfect, and neither is the monsterarts. I don't get why people are expecting it honestly, it's an incredibly detailed design, they will need to make sacrifices for the toy.
>>5966894
He directed it, but he didnt write the script.
Iron Man 3 is literally an abomination of a film, but youll have to thank the writers and trailer editors for that.
>>5968178
Shane black also co-wrote the screenplay ya dip. So yes it is his fault totally.
>>5968225
Buuuuuuuullshit! TRU will take everything back if you have a receipt. Take it to a store if you have to.
>>5968238
They usually take everything back as well in the store as long as its in their system without a receipt.
>>5967825
How about you attach their comment too. They even said it can be smaller.
Btw That faggot anon that got banned, eat your heart out.
>>5968271
Not only did they say it could be smaller, they are making it smaller.
I wish theyd make the arms smaller too though. Then I'd be really excited for it.
And hopefully it can stand up right. When ever you saw him standing naturally in the movie he wasnt hunched over like that
>>5968256
The fuck? They can return it at the store. You got some retarded ass people at the customer service.
>>5968273
I'm just upset over the whole thing, they also didn't have any at the store. I'll hopefully go to another one in Times Square, they all can't be retarded
>>5968280
It's TRU, they can.
They haven't shipped to stores yet, though, but they will start showing up. Regardless, they'll take stuff back...but if you want an exchange, then you'd have to wait, yeah. Or ship it back. TRU's gone downhill majorly anyway...
YEEEEEAH! SENTRY GUUUUUNS!!!!
So I took the liberty to photoshop the head 3% smaller since Randy said theyre going to make it about that size smaller.
I also made a comparison with the actual maquette. I know they're slightly different angles, but it was the best I could find.
From what I can gather, all they have to do is make the lower torso a tad bit long, and the arms slightly smaller and it would be near perfect
>>5963046
Mine arrived today. I like them for the most part, what really bothers me the most are that Shredder's claws are VERY gummy and easy to bend and get stuck that way. Joints also have to be broken in a bit because they're stiff as fuck at first. Otherwise pretty cool to finally have good Shredder and Foot toys.
>>5968334
You're never happy.
>>5968347
The claws have to be gummy or they'd snap before even getting to you. They were soft plastic on the Arcade version too. That's simply the best way to do it.
>>5968351
Im happy with it, I could just be happier, thats all
Got Flamethrower Robert Cop today. Never seen Robocop (yet) nor played the game it's from but it looked cool and for £15 I thought "Why not?"
Pros: Great sculptwork, the paintjob is beautiful, the springloaded holster is a cool idea, the flamethrower is neat, the projectiles are a cool idea.
Cons: Articulation is lacking even for a Robocop figure (the hips might as well be a V-crotch), the holster is kinda fiddly, he can barely hold the flamethrower as is and with the projectiles attached it's just too fucking heavy for him to hold, he can't stand up very well in many poses outside of standing straight up, and I wish he came with some alternate hands.
Still, not bad at all for £15. Overall I like him, I just wish he was less of a brick. I know the actual suit was very inarticulate though. That said, once I've actually seen the movie I'll probably buy the Figma as my "definitive" Robocop. I know they couldn't get the license for his face but it looks like a good toy otherwise.
Ultimate Hero Ash confirmed.

>>5968601
Eh, I'll wait for an Ultimate Army of Darkness Ash.
>>5968601
Waaat, the thing we all knew was coming and were patient enough to wait for unlike the whiners is coming? Who knew!?
>>5968634
I think the Army of Darkness license is likely separate from the Evil Dead one.
Anyone with Twitter care to ask Randy?
>>5968674
It is separate. It's why the recent video games ignored it totally.
Did Bruce Campbell get shorter over the years or did I miss something?
I mean both look good, but seriously?
>>5968759
Well, yeah. You shrink as you age, that's actually a truth.
>>5965048
Can't wait for this guy.
>>5968700
McFarlane did. And yes they can do it, IF they get the license. AoD is owned by a separate movie studio.
>>5968762
Well yeah, I get that and I wasn't being sarcastic. Hence why I asked, did he actually shrink or is this a scaling goof?
I mean it's no big deal but unless it's intentional, it does seem pretty irksome to have two of figures of the same character by the same company look so out of scale, especially with the two figures coming out around the same time.
>>5968789
Truthfully it's likely because the Evil Dead 2 stuff was it's own thing, and was never meant to scale with necessarily, other stuff. Years and years apart will do that.
Or maybe he has gotten smaller, they wouldn't let you know on camera due to tricks n'stuff.
>>5964944
What's with the photo on the box? Looks like Ash half way between Evil Dead and Vs the Evil Dead
>>5968804
It's the promotional shots they provide NECA with to use on the packaging.
>>5968700
>>5968788
NECA made two, Medieval Ash and S-Mart Ash. I remember almost getting S-Mart Ash back then because it was one of the only decent looking Ash figures and now we have all these new ones based on ED2 and AvED. What a time to be alive.
If we ever get Ultimate figures, the main thing I'd add with the Medieval Ash is that they finally include a head sculpt with the eyes facing forward. Because the eyes facing to the right was what made me skip the figure entirely back in the day.
>>5968798
>Truthfully it's likely because the Evil Dead 2 stuff was it's own thing, and was never meant to scale with necessarily, other stuff. Years and years apart will do that.
That's true, I mean it was an older mold after all, only updated to have better articulation.
>>5968811
I'd love to see updated versions of both of these.
Really there could be several AoD Ash figures, he wears a bunch of different awesome costumes throughout the film
>>5965605
ED, or MG?
>>5968811
I've got Medieval Ash, they made him a little too bug-eyed. Looks bizarre from a lot of angles, but pretty good from straight-on.
Hard to strike that balance between goofy and handsome that Campbell had going.
I'd like to see them do an all-new head sculpt of Ash from ED2 or AoD, they might be able to make a great one now.
>>5969198
The eyes look great in person, really. Adds a ton to the sculpt. As for the sideways look, well, this was still the "statue" era, so I was totally okay with it. Plus the sculpt is fucking gorgeous, especially on the base.
>>5968303
Well, now we know what accessory pack for other franchises Randy was talking about. Pretty cool.
I just wish TF2 line had more luck than it did, maybe we could have gotten a similar pack for engi with a few variant weapons for the others.
I wonder if we'll ever get a Doomguy NECA figure? I just hope if we do they make articulation a priority over "SCULPT IN EVERY SINGLE RIDGE OF HIS SUIT". I'll be disappointed if he can't shoulder his gun/do convincing RIP AND TEAR poses. Demons would be cool too, especially if they pulled a Revoltech Unit 02 Beast Mode and packaged them with blood sprays and made the limbs removable.
>>5969369
Well good thing Neca will hopefully redo and correct their mistakes like they did with Shin Goji.
>>5969678
There was no mistake.
>>5969681
The proportions weren't quite right (particularly the arms) and the teeth looked a bit mushy. Still looks good, though I'll probably save up for the Monsterarts myself.
>>5969682
There's no mistake with the Ash, is what I'm saying. You're trying to start a fight over nothing.
>>5969688
...What? I misread your post and thought you were talking about Shin Godzilla, who was definitely flawed. Stop being so fucking hostile.
>>5969693
You're the one being hostile, guy. Don't respond to me about mistakes when there weren't any to be had in what was being discussed.
>>5969695
>Minorly misunderstanding a post is "being hostile" and "trying to start a fight over nothing"
Nigga you high
>>5969701
You're being hostile.
>>5969688
Anyone who thinks a figure is not as good as you think is not trying to start a fight
>>5969895
That's cute that you hide behind that.
>>5965526
It looks like neither the NECA nor the MonsterArts will be able to do the split-jaw thing from the movie, at least not until we get inevitable atomic breath variants.
>>5970291
That would make the most sense, but NECA and Bandai both know that they can get away with recoloring the spines purple and selling the same figure twice. I'm not sure which company's ShinGoji I'll go with at this point, but I'm not biting on either for a few months because the variants are inevitable.
I don't even wanna open these bad boys.
I should have bought two.
>>5970760
Oops
Has NECA ended Pacific Rim?
Are we never getting Raiju?
>>5971124
Theyre done with PR for now. Their license expired, but they said they are interested in the PR2 license
Can someone post pictures of the Godzilla figures and a list of them all? The last one I got was the 54 figure. Really hoping they do a 2000 and Shin version too.
>>5965155
>https://twitter.com/NECA_TOYS/status/786293084283924480
I hope we get an accessory pack for their Godzilla figures. Some beams, army vehicles and maybe some trains or buildings
>>5971215
>and Shin version too.
nobody tell him
>>5965155
I feel like someone asked something about ever doing a Friday the 13th accessory pack and they said theyve considered it before
>>5965155
Part 3 Jason included nearly every weapon he's ever used so probably not. Ultimate Ash gave us almost every single iconic item from the movie (minus the chainsaw before they attached it to his hand, that would be sick) so I doubt they'll do that either. I would VERY much love to see a Nightmare on Elm Street pack giving us all the demented items Freddy used to torture his victims. They could even throw in the Freddy worm from part 3 as the main piece while everything else is just an accessory
>It's a NECAnon and NECAnon imitators argue with everyone and shit up the whole thread episode
>Again
My Alien Vs. Predator 2-pack's Alien's right elbow hinge feels loose. Should I worry about it?
How's Ash? I always wanted a figure and might pick one up.
Are Kelly and supporting cast getting figures or what?
>>5971638
probably not, but better safe than sorry, pledge that shit.
>>5971643
>Are Kelly and supporting cast getting figures or what?
You know, I really hope so. It's nice that we actually got a recurring cast of characters out of Pablo and Kelly given Evil Dead's usual schtick of killing everyone while leaving Ash as the only survivor.
If I recall, I think NECA has already announced that they're making figures for Season 2 come Series 2 of the figures, but that's obviously hinting towards the new demons/monsters. I know humans don't usually sell, but if NECA could somehow put out a Kelly and Pablo in separate packs with other demonic creatures (similar to what they did with the helmeted Hicks/Hudson) then I'd be all over that.
>>5971643
Seems like they might be considering it.
https://twitter.com/NECA_TOYS/status/785904905592516612
Hope series 2 isn't just going to be more Ash variants.
>>5971652
>Pledge
What
Is it true Eligos' legs can only swivel at the hip and not bend? Checked out a couple reviews that say as much and wondering if they just need to be unstuck.
>>5971890
It's a peg and hinge. So those reviewers are indeed retards.
Now, it's extremely limited in movement, and the connection is actually up into the torso and not horizontally in the crotch, so again, it's still limited. Kind of like earlier Hasbro Marvel Legends where you had to move the joint around to get it facing the right way.
>>5971896
Alright, thanks.
Whena re we getting Resurrection stuff like Newborn, Aquatic Alien, the cripple guy, and Ron Perlman?
>>5962525
superior version coming through
>>5972060
One wave of Res stuff next year, only Ripley, the alien and the Newborn though
We MIGHT get Aquatic Alien later though
>>5971826
Pledge floor shine is a common thing people use to tighten joints on toys. I personally don't use it but a lot of folks swear by it
>>5972123
>Clear Dome > Opaque Dome
But yeah, red and black > gray and gold, i'll give you that.
What's the best direction to point the Alien Queen's stand bottom?
>>5971693
I want Ruby for hotglue reasons.
>>5972123
I don't know man, the other version is a little more unique, I wish they do that instead.
>>5972447
Depends on where you've got her center of gravity going, but I personally have the V facing inward and angled towards the leg I have further back (I have her "stepping forward" posed).
I think I have the red queen's V pointing towards her too...
haven't bought anything NECA in months. Scarface still not out yet?
>>5972474
>no naked ruby
>no dirty/bloody ruby
>no kelly
>no pablo with broken bottle
>no scale Oldsmobile
>>5972947
Unfortunately the big chap prototype had 2 paint jobs... One was a great bone effect paint job and the other was kind just a mess ... Sounds like you got the later ... It was a crap shoot as to which one you got unless you went to the store to hand pick your alien ... NECA some times has quality issues ... I still find problems with it .. I went to look at the white tongue alien and tru had 2 and one was missing the back spike ... It was nowhere in the package and that's not the first time that's happened as you can see in pic
>>5972874
Dammit all to hell!
idk if Xena has figures or not and Lucy Flawless is my bitch.
>>5973059
a lot of people are getting screwed with the genocide two-pack, well with the big chap dome issue.
What are the essential NECA figures? I just got started because I got an 18 inch Striker Eureka for free and I'm tempted to get a Cherno and Gypsy.
>>5973992
Their alien egg set comes with a few facehugger figures. That's probably my favorite NECA figure.
>>5973651
There's a problem with the new red ones? I was considering getting one .... I've had to stop myself from getting the same alien in different colors and just stick to unique sculpts ... But damn those red aliens look fucking awesome
>>5974399
a number of people are getting a big chap with the dome peeling off, that's all.
>>5973999
Ha. I see what you did there.
>>5973999
Not a figure.
>>5973992
Alien Dog is probably their best Xenomorph, great articulation.
Predators are also very popular an all have about the same qualities, more recent AvP preds and the soon to be released Ultimate Jungle and City Hunter have better articulation though, if you are going to pick just one i suggest waiting for those since they also will have plenty of accessories.
The Ultimate Terminator figures are badass, i picked the Ultimate T800 Arnold from T2 a few weeks ago and it went straight to my favorite list.
Plenty Freddy and Jason options too if you like horror.
>>5973992
I don't think you can really have essential NECA figures, for example I love the Evil Dead movies but I haven't seen AvED nor do I really want a figure of Ash. He could be the best NECA toy ever and I would still pass
They say that no janitor dares enter a NECA thread...
>>5976023
apparently not, holy shit.
as much as I love neca, /toy/ should go without neca threads at all for a few days, these rampant shitposters are trying harder and harder and more more often.
TRU updated with a fuckton of pre-orders! Ash vs Evil Dead 3 pack, Predator series 16, Kenner Aliens, Ali vs Superman, 18" Donatello, and more.
>>5973651
Saw these at TRU today, there's no dome issue. They all looked fine. They had 6 sets there.
>>5974499
My concept one has that problem ... I just don't mess with it
>>5976306
Nice, grabbed a preorder for spiked tail finally, didn't switch over from BBTS for the others though due to TRU burning me in the past.
>>5976689
>due to TRU burning me in the past.
Could you elaborate? I actually just ordered from them, lol.
>>5977133
I ordered all three of one of the alien series and they only sent me two of figures but said the order was complete. Had to complain about it but was only offered a refund since they were "sold out". Luckily BBTS still had them in stock.
>>5977194
Yeah, this is why I wait for the figure to be 'in stock' on tru.com before I order. They're so half-assed about so many things though.
Said I wasn't going to pick up different colored versions of aliens i already had but with the tongue I consider him a unique alien so I went for him.
You knoe?
>>5977366
i knoe
>>5976318
Well thats not what twitter and IG are showing us. Including some ppl on here.
Shitty loose knees aside, I love this Xeno
>>5977803
Then you're full of shit, because that's not what real life is showing.
>>5978022
holy shit dude, calm down. Just because you got a good case doesnt mean no one else has. You can even look earlier in this thread two anons had this issue and linked it to someone who posted in on Neca's twitter. Its obvious a small bad batch got released. calm down, these things happen.
