NECA Reveals New Classic Horror Icons

Posted on September 24, 2009 at 6:26 am by Joe Moore under Horror Toy News

NECA has unveiled a new series of figures based on some of horrors modern icons. The new figures include Beetlejuice, Michael Myers, Brain (Gremlins 2), The Crow and Pinhead.

“To be an icon, you have to stand the test of time. Not even necessarily be timeless — who would say Beetlejuice isn’t of its era? — but you have to prove your worth and enduring relevance over many years, to rise above criticism and be of quality unflappable. Once something or someone is an icon, it is more than the sum of its parts, something greater than even its creators could have intended.

Today NECA celebrates the most memorable figures of cult cinema with out latest Cult Classics line: Icons. The first installment features some of the best heroes and villains we’ve ever unleashed, including The Crow, Beetlejuice, Gremlins’ Brain, Michael Myers, and of course, Pinhead. Each figure comes with unique accessories in exclusive, movie-specific packaging. The series highlights how special each and every one of these characters has become over time.

NECA’s Cult Classics Icons will hit stores by the end of this month, and of course they’ll also be available online at our Amazon storefront.“

    These figures are great. It's kind of old news that they are being released, though. They are all just re-releases of past figures. But for those who are interested in them but didn't get a chance to pick them up before its great news.

    Looks good. I wonder how these will compare to Movie Maniacs.

    I loved McFarlane's Movie Maniacs. NECA pretty much took over the whole movie figure thing from them. I personally prefer McFarlane because they would sculpt detail on the figure that you would never see. For example, on the Djinn character from Wishmaster, they sculpted his entire legs in intricate detail and then placed the sculpted clothing made from soft plastic over, covering up the legs. But if you lift it up you can see all the work they put into it. NECA does not do this. The Pinhead they made doesn't even have legs. Its just solid all the way down because of his robe. They didn't sculpt legs and then the robe on top, they just sculpted the robe. Also, the sculpting in general is just a notch below from what McF used to put out. Still, they are a good alternative to McFarlane and they have been releasing some killer properties that people have been dying for in plastic form.

    Heh, Beetlejuice is so not a horror icon.

    Cool figure though.
