Personally I would like to see the following in Series 3, or any other future series.

Michael Myers - Halloween
The Dummy (http://www.thegreenhead.com/entertainment/images/saw2-sm.jpg) - Saw

That would be the best thing ever

[Cyclops]

I would buy a Shaun figure...

[Ben Urich]

Frank the Bunny and Shaun are musts.

[The Lumberjack]

I would snatch Shaun, Michael Myers, and a dead Paris Hilton up in a second. How about a good Pennywise figure?

[Jamie Madrox]

Pennywise? I can dig that! :up:

And I need a Shaun figure too.

[The Lumberjack]

Since they made a Mohawk figure and Gremlins 2 was far from a horror flick, maybe we could get a Frankenfurter figure or some Clockwork Orange figures. What about Jack from The Shining? He could be swinging the axe at the door or be set up w/ his face through the door.

[Doomed Hero Rising]

I didn't see house of wax hilton died?
I'd want a gizmo fig

[FEAR THE BAT]

I would snatch Shaun, Michael Myers, and a dead Paris Hilton up in a second. How about a good Pennywise figure?


That would be damn cool. I'd get one. :up:

[BIGGUN]

NECA just got the license for the orginal Dawn of the Dead and will be inserting figures into the Cult Classics line.
Zombie Stephen (aka "Fly Boy") will be in series 3 while the bald/scarred airport zombie will be in wave 4. also i think Bubba Ho-Tep will also be in series 3.
i think they are going to make an announcement for the line up at the Fall Toy Fair which is being held this week i think.

[FEAR THE BAT]

Bubba Ho-Tep?!?

Must get.

[Jamie Madrox]

Heck yeah! A must get.

[FEAR THE BAT]

They need to make some Resevoir Dog figs while they're at it. Or Pulp Fiction.

[The Lumberjack]

They need to make some Resevoir Dog figs while they're at it. Or Pulp Fiction.
Somebody actually made some decent Reservoir Dogs figures a few years back. They were in a brochure in the 10th anniversary DVD. As far as Pulp Fiction goes, I've been waiting for realistic Pulp Fiction figures ever since I saw the movie. I'd kill for a Jules and Vincent boxset or Mia and Vincent dancing. That could be a huge series w/ variants or different versions of figures out the ass. Mutch and Marcellus tied up, the gimp and Zed, Vince and Mia (dancing and adrenaline shot), Jules and Vincent (clean, bloody, and "dork" attire), Jimmy, the Wolf......I could go on and on.:D

[The Lumberjack]

Here's a link to those Reservoir Dogs figures. Apparently it was Mezco took a crack at them with.....mediocre results: http://www.toymania.com/columns/spotlight/mezresdog1.shtml

I'd like:

a Butch & Marcellus scene where they're both messed up from that wreck (well, Marcellus got hit with a car, Butch was in the wreck) and Butch is running away and and Marcellus is after him with gun blazing.

a Butch & Vincent scene where Butch has Vincents gun and is shooting him as he walked out the bathroom.

and a Jules & Vincent deluxe boxset with them in the car with the guy in the backseat and his head blown off and the insides of the car are all blood splattered.

[FEAR THE BAT]

Here's a link to those Reservoir Dogs figures. Apparently it was Mezco took a crack at them with.....mediocre results: http://www.toymania.com/columns/spotlight/mezresdog1.shtml


Yeah, they don't look much like the actors. They should try again. Mezco did damn good with the movie Hellboy line.

I'm sure they could outdo these Res.Dog figs easily.

[The Lumberjack]

I know there's a pretty cool Mr. Blonde boxset floating around of the infamous ear scene.

[FEAR THE BAT]

Man, that movie is cool. That scene was a trip, especially when he starts dancin' and talkin' into the ear.

[cqb101]

Here's the leaked list for Cult Classics series 3......


Bubba Ho-Tep
Zombie Flyboy
T-800 Endoskeleton
John McClaine

John McCaline and zombie Flyboy are the only ones I'll be getting.

Oh, and SOTA has the rights for SaW, they're releasing the killer and the doll in Now Playing series 4, I think.

[Venom_uk]

I didn't see house of wax hilton died?
I'd want a gizmo fig
Paris Hilton snuffing it was the only good thing about HoW. :up:

It like to see a Gizmo but with 'real' fury & not plastic like the one that they have done already.

Ok I just googled Bubba Ho-Tep & I got some guy that looks like Elvis. Is that right?!? :confused: lol

The T-800 might be worth a look & the John McClaine will be interesting to see. I remember a few people wanted to see a figure of him before.

SOTA have the Saw licence? Well that sucks 'cos now it wont make it into the Cult Classics range but it's also good 'cos it means we're getting the figs made anyway. :up:

[Dr Doom]

Paris Hilton snuffing it was the only good thing about HoW. :up:
Excuse me, how bout Miss Cuthbert running around al sweaty and dirty :D

[The Lumberjack]

John McClaine and Bubba Ho-Tep?! Hells yeah.:cool:

I'm glad SOTA has the liscence. IMO, they produce much better figures.

[Gamma Ray]

John McClaine!?!? That's awesome!

[cqb101]

Here are pictures of Zombie Flyboy and Bubba.....

The rest of the figs will be revealed later in the week.

[Venom_uk]

Whoah! The base for the zombie is sick! :eek::up:

[Keyser Soze]

A Shaun figure would be an absolute must-have!

[Castle]

amazing fly boy figure. Its a must that i have that figure and by the sounds of it, most of the ones in the set.

[Roughneck]

Awwww. I wish it wasn't Bubba Ho Tep. I wish it was Elvis. Dammit.


Oh well John MC****INGClaine. Sweeeeeeeet.

I am a little piffed that these guys seem to be putting out stuff that McFarlane already did though. Terminator, Friday the 13th, Nightmare on Elm St. We just go all those within ghte past few years. Hit on some new stuff. Like McLaine.

Highlander, Dawn of the Dead, Seed of Chucky, and more…


With Cult Classics Series 1 in stores and Series 2 shipping now, film fans are eagerly anticipating the third series of NECA’s classic cult film figures.

Here at the Fall Toy Show 2005, NECA had prototypes of some of the figures in Cult Classics Series 3, which will include Flyboy Zombie from the original “Dawn of the Dead”, Bubba Ho-Tep Mummy from “Bubba Ho-Tep”, Endoskeleton from “Terminator 2” (with new, improved “chrome” paint application), and John McClane from Die Hard.

Cult Classics Series 3 will also included a Highlander boxed set, which will include both medieval Connor McCloud and the Kurgan.

Cult Classics Series 4 is tentatively slated to include Chucky from “Child’s Play”, Elvis (Bruce Campbell) from “Bubbo Ho-Tep”, Plaid Zombie from the original “Dawn of the Dead”, and a boxed set from ”Seed of Chucky” which will include Chucky, Tiffany, & Glen/Glenda.

NECA also mentioned the upcoming 12” Frank the Bunny figure from the film ”Donnie Darko”, an 18" John McClane w/ "R-Rated" voice chip, a possible re-release of the 18” T-800 Endoskeleton with an updated chrome paint application (thanks to fans’ responses), and a possible 18” Medieval Kurgan from Highlander. Check out the image gallery below for more photos of Cult Classics Series 3 and keep checking back for more news and information on future NECA figures.

[The Lumberjack]

12" Frank the Bunny and Elvis.:up::cool:

[Lord Valumart]

how tall are these things?

[The Lumberjack]

how tall are these things?
I'm pretty sure these are on the 7" scale which makes them about the same size as McFarlane's stuff.

[cqb101]

how tall are these things?

Anywhere between 6-8" depending on the character.

[Lord Valumart]

I'm pretty sure these are on the 7" scale which makes them about the same size as McFarlane's stuff.
cool

must get McClane.

[FEAR THE BAT]

McClane is a must.

Endoskeleton is also a must since I missed out on the McFarlane stuff.

Ho-Tep is still a possibilty, probably yeah.

[Dr Doom]

I can get every T3 McFarlane fig is you want any :D

12" Frank the Bunny is a must.

[FEAR THE BAT]

Nah. I'm cool. I'll wait for this NECA one so they can be the same.

[FEAR THE BAT]

Thanks for the offer though Doomie. :up:

[Dr Doom]

Oh, well nevermind :(

I still want Frank though

[FEAR THE BAT]

Haven't seen Frank. If I do I'll let you know.

[Dr Doom]

The 12" one, not the small one.

[FEAR THE BAT]

Oh, well f*** that, they never have 12" figs. Those sell pretty much the first day.

[Dr Doom]

I know, it sucks

[FEAR THE BAT]

Tell me about it. I was actually thinkin' of gettin' the 18" Hellboy that just came out and they were all gone. They had 4.

[Dr Doom]

I wanted the 18" Marv too, but alas it was not to be

[FEAR THE BAT]

Man, I swear, a month ago I coulda gotten one from Suncoast for $20.

[Dr Doom]

My shop has a HUGE MMovie Hellboy, but they want a ****load for him

[FEAR THE BAT]

My comic shop had them for $45.

They went in a matter of hours. Plus two of them were already spoken for.

[Dr Doom]

Help me out, which should I get first the Doom statue with goblet, the Marvel Masterworks thing, or the Movie Thing Maquette?

Dont say Doom just cause he's my character, I'm going to get them all I just want to know which to get first.

[FEAR THE BAT]

Personally the Doom owns the other two. Thats just me. The throne, the goblet, man, thats just ridiculously awesome. I wish a Batman at his computer could be made as cool as that Doom on his throne.

Second would be the Masterworks Thing. The movie Thing is good, but the Masterworks one is a friggin' massive mofo.

[Dr Doom]

Cool, I'm gonna tell my shop to order one for me :D

[FEAR THE BAT]

Seriously bro, you could be a general FF fan and I'd still say the Doom is the best.

[Dr Doom]

I know, but I still want the damn Thing so BADLY!!!

[FEAR THE BAT]

Well, just get what you want most. Flip a coin or somethin'. If I had a choice I'd get the Doom.

[Dr Doom]

My shop lets me put it on law-a-way, so I'm jst going to pay 20 a week for god knows how long.

[FEAR THE BAT]

Thats cool. It'll be worth it.

[Dr Doom]

I just wanna know how big it is, I cant find that info anywhere

[FEAR THE BAT]

It looks like its damn big. They can't show you at the shop?

[Dr Doom]

They only have the solicits for it, they dont have the statue.

They are going to order it for me.

[FEAR THE BAT]

But it'll eventually get there. Then they can show it to you.

[Venom_uk]

18" Frank?!? :eek:

*does happy dance*

[cqb101]

18" Frank?!? :eek:

*does happy dance*

He's 12", actually.

[Venom_uk]

He's 12", actually.
Bah! 12" is still good. :up:

Wait...that came out wrong! :eek:

[Dr Doom]

I like 'em when they're 12" :eek:

[FEAR THE BAT]

^

You are a sad tin-faced man. :(

[Dr Doom]

I only posted that cause a situation like that happened to me recently

[FEAR THE BAT]

I don't even want to know.

*leaves thread for good*

[Dr Doom]

Its a good one

[Roughneck]

http://www.action-figure.com/events/main.php?g2_view=core.DownloadItem&g2_itemId=3389&g2_serialNumber=1


Oh My God.. This is gonna be one sweet figure.

[FEAR THE BAT]

John Friggin' McClane!!!

[Roughneck]

On a roof with a machine gun and no shoes.

[FEAR THE BAT]

Man, I gotta get that one. No ifs, no buts.

[Roughneck]

What happened to this fig?

http://www.jrxtoys.de/images/gfg/jesper_gfg_JRX/art/Sculpting/JRX%20Series%201/JOHN%20MCLANE%201/MM%20PICS/mm8_mcclane_photo_01_dp.jpg

[Roughneck]

And this damaged Lighter Holding one?

http://www.jrxtoys.de/images/gfg/jesper_gfg_JRX/art/custom/ORIGINAL%20SCULPTS/JOHN%20MCLANE%201/John_McLane_Finished_Figure_1.jpg

[FEAR THE BAT]

Who made those???

[FEAR THE BAT]

The one with the lighter is kinda cool even though it doesn't look much like him.

[Roughneck]

http://www.jrxtoys.de

Custom toys

[FEAR THE BAT]

Both of them are customs?

The first one looks like a fig that was actually produced.

[Keyser Soze]

Okay, I've thought of some more Cult Classics I'd like to see:

Hans Gruber - With John McClane in Wave 3, he needs his arch nemesis
Donnie Darko - would be a nice companion piece to Frank The Bunny
The Dude - The hero of "The Big Lebowski" would be total awesomeness as a figure

Sorry I can't think of any monsters to go with them...

[Dr Doom]

Milton complete with desk and Swingline.

[Roughneck]

Monk From Bulletproof Monk. (Prefferably with 2 guns and on top of the red Car.

The Transporter.

[Dr Doom]

ROCK FROM DOOM, PREFERABLY WITH BFG. VARIENT OF HIM TRANSFORIMNG.

[Assassin]

i got the frank the bunny yesterday, :up:

John Mclane from die hard right? yea i'll be getting that

[Mr. Edward Hyde]

WOAH WOAH WOAH WOAH WAIT....theres a 12" Frank the bunny....??? :confused:

[Venom_uk]

Personally I would like to see the following in Series 3, or any other future series.

Michael Myers - Halloween
The Dummy (http://www.thegreenhead.com/entertainment/images/saw2-sm.jpg) - Saw
Shaun - Shaun Of The Dead
Paris Hilton (with pole through head) - House Of Wax. :D:up:
----------------------------
Long time no Blog I know. This is the most hectic time of year for us as we are in high gear preparing many new prototypes for the International Toy Fair in February. We also have some really cool new figures leaving China and headed to store shelves in the coming weeks. First off, Cult Classics 3 is being manufactured now at a new factory. I am really happy with the results so far and I think you will be too. McClane, Flyboy, Bubba, and the Endo are going to please. We also have Pirates Series 2 shipping and the 12" Frank the Bunny. Expect updated images and details on the NECA site over the next 2 weeks. These figures should be available in your area in mid-late February.

To get back to Toy Fair 2006, without getting into too many specific details I will give you a brief rundown of some of the new lines you will see next month:
Pirates: Dead Man's Chest Series I and II, Cult Classics 4, Resident Evil 2, NBX 4 and 5, Iron Maiden 2, Various Music Related Figures, and a lot more.

We're also working on the 18" Figures and Boxed Set Lineups for 2006 as well. Toy Fair may offer a gimpse at the Seed of Chucky Boxed Set, Highlander, and part of Cult Classics 5. Who knows, there may even be some new license announcements too...

If you have not seen it yet pick up the latest issue of Lee's Toy Review for a Cult Classics 3 Cover Story with many new images and details along with a sneak peek of Cult Classics 4.
Yes Shaun (of the Dead) is the 4th character in Series 4 and he is awesome.

In addition to all of that we're also working on a brand new website which will launch this Spring (March - if we're lucky)
http://www.myspace.com/necafans

Woo hoo!!! :D:up:

[Venom_uk]

Full series 4 listings...

Series 4
Shaun - Shaun of the Dead
Chucky - Child's Play 2
Ray Family (Chucky, Tiffany, Glen/da) - Seed of Chucky
The King (Bruce Campbell Elvis) - Bubba Ho-Tep

That last one will please Roughneck. :up:

[Roughneck]

.................

You damn right it will, though I don't know if I've ever professed my Elvis love on the Hype.

But hell I am geting Shaun of the Dead too.

I just haven't foing any of these I needed until the announcedment of John McLean, and now Shaun and Bruce as Elvis. Sweeeeet.


But re readting this thread I think that I wouls give up all three of them for one figure of the Dude in his robe.

[Gamma Ray]

http://www.action-figure.com/events/main.php?g2_view=core.DownloadItem&g2_itemId=3389&g2_serialNumber=1


Oh My God.. This is gonna be one sweet figure.



Unfortunately, no it's not. :(

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v225/swcgphotos/95de8ca3.jpg



It sucks. :(

[Roughneck]

I'm hoping the final product will looks better, but I'm still getting it. He needs a new head.

[Unleashed]

I Want A Jesus!!!!

I Will Be Getting Frank The Bunny And I Want A Donnie Darko With Axe

[Roughneck]

Somehow I doubt we will ever see Passion of the Christ figures. Sorry.

That said I want some Princess Bride figs.

[Unleashed]

Jesus From Lebowski, Stupid Face

[Roughneck]

Oh "Nobody ****s with Jesus"

[FEAR THE BAT]

I would get all figs from a Lebowski line.

[Guy Gardner]

I would get all figs from a Lebowski line.
So would I...especially an uzi toting Walter w/ a pomeranain

[FEAR THE BAT]

Damn straight.

[FEAR THE BAT]

You can't forget the box of ashes too...

[Guy Gardner]

You can't forget the box of ashes too...
It was a coffee tin of ashes...though another good accessory would be the 'ringer' of dirty undies...you know, the whites

[Guy Gardner]

Of course, we'd all kill for a Tara Reid action figure as well :up:

[FEAR THE BAT]

My bad, been awhile since I'd seen the movie.

But the "ringer" briefcase would be good. And a bat from when he bashed that guy's Corvette all up.

[Guy Gardner]

My bad, been awhile since I'd seen the movie.

But the "ringer" briefcase would be good. And a bat from when he bashed that guy's Corvette all up.
That would be a fun one. Walter in a suit smashing up a 'Vette playset....priceless

[FEAR THE BAT]

Very cool playset indeed.

And also one with the Dude in his tub with the marmit attacking him in the water.

[Orko Is King]

I demand Ghostbuster figures!

[Jamiepoole]

I don't know about you guys, this line hasn't interested me much so far but there are two figures I will be buying as soon as they hit


Flyboy zombie from dawn of the dead
Shaun from shaun of the dead.

Now those I will be getting.

[THE GOON]

Sign me up for Big Lebowski figures too. And if only some cool Pulp Fiction ones were made.

I almost got those little lego looking figures that were Pulp Fiction characters but I don't know, they were kinda silly I guess. I like how McFarlane figures have been coming out, those Movie Maniacs and other lines. And these Cult Classics are solid looking too. I'd get a Crow figure if I ever see it.

[FEAR THE BAT]

Some Pulp Fiction (and Resevoir Dogs) figs need to be made by NECA in the Cult Classics line for sure. Or atleast a character here and a character there. I'd buy'em, no doubt.

[THE GOON]

Man primo, you know damn well that I don't get toys like your ass. but seriously, those movies kick ass soI'd get atleast a few.

[FEAR THE BAT]

You ass****!!!

WTF did you tell Saint553?!?!?!

[THE GOON]

**** him. He's a jerk. Besides, like you said, he takes things to seriously. He needs to chill out, take a **** or somethig because he's too defensive.

[FEAR THE BAT]

Man, STFU!!!

Why do you have to be a damn clown no matter where you go?

[THE GOON]

huh, you guys are just as bad.

You think you all bad too like Saint553. Both of you can kiss my keister.

[FEAR THE BAT]

You're gonna get banned if you keep talkin' s***. Wouldn't surprise me if he already PMed a mod too.

See what happens when you don't keep your damn mouth shut?!?

[Venom_uk]

I think NECA should do a FTB Vs The Goon boxset next. :p

[Jamiepoole]

I think NECA should do a FTB Vs The Goon boxset next. :p

LOL :up:

I can't believe no one is talking about the Shaun of the Dead figure though

[Venom_uk]

I can't believe no one is talking about the Shaun of the Dead figure though
yeah, you me both dude. So many people seemed to wont one at the begining now it seems nobody cares! :confused:
Oh well, maybe when we get some pics of the piece itself peopl will get more hyped up about it. I know I will.

When: Shipping September 2006
Who: Hannibal Lecter (in straight jacket) "The Silence of the Lambs"

Personally I would like to see the following in Series 3, or any other future series.

Michael Myers - Halloween
The Dummy (http://www.thegreenhead.com/entertainment/images/saw2-sm.jpg) - Saw CHECK
Shaun - Shaun Of The Dead CHECK
Paris Hilton (with pole through head) - House Of Wax.

Two outta the four I listed have made it into the Cult Classics line. Oh yeah! :cool:
Here's hoping we can make it 3 sometime soon with a dead Paris Hilton figure. :D:up:

[SpideyLad]

Here's hoping we can make it 3 sometime soon with a dead Paris Hilton figure. :D:up:

I'd buy it...:p

[Venom_uk]

So with NECA announcing the line ups for Series 4 & 5 not so long ago & quite a few of the ones we said we'd like to see actually making it into the line ups. Who would you like to see in Series 6 & beyond?
I'll once again list who we've already had, & who we've still got to come just incase anyone forgets...


Series 1
Patrick Bateman - American Psycho
Eric Draven - The Crow
Jason Voorhees - Friday The 13th: Part VII
Mohawk - Gremlins 2

Chucky - Child's Play

Series 5

Jigsaw Killer & Puppet - Saw
Yet TBA 4th...


I would still like to see,

Michael Myers - Halloween
Paris Hilton (complete with pole through head) - House Of Wax

& also,

Edward - Edward Scissor Hands
Ghostface - Scream

Plus, now with NECA doing quite a few music based figures, I think it would be pretty cool if they did a Slipknot boxset or something.
Also, once the movie 'American McGee's Alice' is out, I'd be bouncing of the walls if NECA picked up the license of that. They'd be perfect for that kinda film too IMO. :up:

[Roughneck]

What do they Mean by Medieval Ash? Is that Ash in his Medievil gear? Or bad Ash?

Anyone else notice how Neca is just a bunch of figured that McFarlane Already did?

Like alot of them anyway...Leatherface, Jason, Freddy, T-800, Ash...And Venom McFarlane did a Ghostface fig a long time back, you should see if you can find that one.

I've no idea WTF they mean by 'Medievil Ash' to be honest with you. I've not seen the movie & no pics have been released of the figure yet, just that it is in Series 5.

Personally I think NECA do a much better job at making figures than McFarlane. Well, when it comes to movie themed ones anyway.
I have both the McFarlane Crow & the NECA one & NECA's version beats it by a mile. Hands down a much better figure in every way...IMO anyway.
Which is why I'd like to see them tackle Ghostface, 'cos I'm sure they'd do a much better job with him too.

[Roughneck]

The whole ghostface thing was dumb anyway. I mean if I was out killing people sure I would have a mask on. but a mask that allows for more visibility. It must have sucked ass looking through that thing. lot's of Blind Spots. And the robe. Why have a long ass robe with **** haning off if it. I would trip while running away. Or in a fight one could easil;y get tangled. Or the opponent coules definately use that against me.

I actually own a 'Scream' mask & it is horrible to see out of (& breath in for that matter). Talk about tunnel vision. & I think the killer(s) must have the same problem in the movie 'cos the gits are always falling over & spent half the time on the floor, scrambling about.
I think you're right about the robe part too. I think it would restrict movment & hinder you more than anything. Not the most practical design for a serial killer but one that looks f'in bad ass IMO. :up:

[Venom_uk]

Also, once the movie 'American McGee's Alice' is out, I'd be bouncing of the walls if NECA picked up the license of that. They'd be perfect for that kinda film too IMO. :up:
Actually, nevermind the movie, I'd like to see NECA to make figures based on the video game. They did it with Resi Evil 4 after all & they came out great.

[JackSkellington]

With Series 4 about to hit the shelves sometime next month, NECA have released pics of all 4 figures boxed & ready to go. :up:

Only Cult Classic figure I have is Jason Voorhees, and it's awesome. I'll be getting Shaun and Lector though.

[GoldenAgeHero]

i wish marvel would put toy biz out of business and buy NECA to produce thier action figures and statues.

[Roughneck]

I want McFarlane to get Marvel......well a line anyway. I still want the ML figs....but I want a .....oooo Though...What if Hasbro gives us a Marvel unleashed, like they did for Star Wars. I want.

[GoldenAgeHero]

ohh mcfarlane is a great choice, either way i think mcfarlane toys should replace toy biz or something.

meh.. we have busts and statues for these reasons.. plus Marvel Select is pretty much the same i think.. mcfarlanes figs break to easy and dont move at all.. if you want that buy a statue

[GoldenAgeHero]

marvel looks like garbage compared to mcfarlanes or NECA's figs.

[Roughneck]

It all depends of Sculpt vs Articulation.

ML Masterworks is the closest we'll get to a McFarlane-esque line of Marvel toys.

marvel's statues pretty much suck too. thepaint on some of them look really bad.

[Dr.Doom]

Also, NECA cofirm that series 6, 7 & 8 are all planned for next year.

Read the full news article (or in this case, blog) here (http://blog.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=blog.view&friendID=21250005&blogID=135862358&MyToken=1f4bd7ca-869b-4bc2-bf4a-a2d2b95c47db).

P.S. They also have pics up on their My Space of the finished series 5 figures. The 'Saw' dummy looks ace!

[VaderRISE]

Those look amazing. I always wanted the McFarlane Ash figure but I missed out on it the first time around. :(

I REALLY hope that one of Medieval Ash's accessories is a removable chainsaw hand.

[Roughneck]

OMG when was Ash Announced

[VaderRISE]

Not real sure, it was on their Myspace along with a Leon Kennedy in his RE2 duds. While I like that Lector I was sortof hoping for his figure to be in his blue jumpsuit with his base being his "cell."

I know the figure is in a classic pose/scene....it would just be cool to have the figure holding a book or something....

[JackSkellington]

NECA have released full pics for Series 5...



Jigsaw looks fantatsic! Can't wait to add him to my collection. :up:

[Roughneck]

sweet.

Where are they?

[Roughneck]

I hope these turn out better than John Mclean

[T]

I hope these turn out better than John Mclean
Yeah, that Mclean figure was a piece of crap :down


No chainsaw for Ash? :( That makes me sad, but at least I can finally get an Ash figure without having to pay an obscene price

[JackSkellington]

WTF happened to my link? There was a link there in the middle of my post...:confused:

& when I click on the 'edit' or 'quote' button, it shows up! Weird!

Sorry guys, I did post a link to the pics...don't know WTF happened there...

[SsM]

I've had success with toywiz.com in the past, its how I got a few other McFarlane and NECA figures. I've never actually pre-ordered from them before, but they do have good customer service and my packages always got delivered on time.

Here are the links for the figures if you're interested:

[SsM]

hmm.. they are reliable? Ive heard someone on the boards say they had a bad experience with them.. and they sell marvel legends at crazy prices :P

Personally I've never had a problem with them, but I generally prefer to buy stuff in stores rather than online, so I'll probably wait until Spencer's has them in stock.

[SsM]

yeah I like finding stuff in stores as well. But ive tried a few online places and the ash is already pre-sold out at CSC and a few other places, I just want to be sure I can get one :P

[JackSkellington]

Meh.....I was bored. :)

http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j98/unknownuser51773/NECACCS5.jpg

[Roughneck]

I'll Prolly get Jugsaw (human head), Ash and Hannibal.

[JackSkellington]

I'll just be picking up the John Kramer version, Saw figure. Non of the others interest me enough to be honest. Still not found a bloody Frank from series 2 or a Shaun from 3 yet though!
They do all look great. Hannibal especially. :up:

Oh yeah, I've just noticed (although I could be wrong), is the Saw figure the first one CC to come without a base?

[VaderRISE]

Heh, well you haven't found Shaun yet because he's yet to be released.

[Roughneck]

What the Ever Loving ****?

Why on this realm or the next would they put his nametag on the wrong side?

[Roughneck]

it nearly ruins the whole thing.

[JackSkellington]

What the Ever Loving ****?

To be fair, in the film he does wear it on that side. They must have flipped the image on the packaging for some reason. So it is on the rigth side after all. :)

[Roughneck]

Oh......okay then.......but they should use a different post for the packageing.

Sorry.

[JackSkellington]

Oh......okay then.......but they should use a different post for the packageing.

Sorry.
Yeah, I don't know why they'd flip the image on the package anyway...can't see it making a huge difference if he was angled the other way. But oh well...

[SpideyLad]

And why have an Ages 18 or Over on a figure!?

[Roughneck]

that I don't knoiw
