Full Details on Wes Craven’s New Nightmare Freddy Krueger by NECA

under Horror Toy News

Wes Craven’s New Nightmare Freddy Krueger 7″ Scale Figure by NECA is scheduled for release this June. The newly sculpted figure will be part of their standard figure series (non-Ultimate) to complete the regular A Nightmare On Elm Street line. Here’s more from NECA:

This time, staying awake won’t save you. Introducing an all-new Freddy Krueger action figure from Wes Craven’s New Nightmare!

The seventh film in the Nightmare on Elm Street franchise took the iconic character in a more menacing direction – closer to Craven’s original intentions for Freddy. This 7″ scale figure features a completely new and improved sculpt with over 25 points of articulation. It comes with an alternate head and removable hat.

See even more new photos after the jump.

    I've been hoping they would do a new sculpt of New Nightmare. Not that I didn't like the old one.

    I wish Neca would make a Nancy Thompson figure, I already have those.

    They looked into it before but the support just isn't there. Even many fans of the Nightmare franchise didn't show enough enthusiasm about a possible Nancy toy for it to go anywhere. In general the want for the human victims/heroes of these horror franchises is far too minimal compared to the want for the villains/monsters, Alien proves a rare exception but little to no others can say the same. The documentary I am Nancy showed how even going to the conventions barely anyone there actually knew who Heather was unless she was sitting at the table with her name on it to sign autographs and even then her line was dismally short. A Nancy toy would be appreciated though however unlikely it may be.

    Only way I could ever see them doing Nancy is maybe in a 2-pack. Even then, the appeal would be pretty limited.

    Side note, I actually went to MonsterMania this past weekend hoping to Meet Heather Langenkamp. Was the only person there I planned on getting a photo with. Unfortunately, she wasn't there yet before I left for the day.

    I hope they decide to do the NN Freddy in ultimate form. Hopefully they'll give us one in retro form as well.

    hm i do not like the fact that his Eyes are watching to the left.

    Maybe the Head can be switched from the Ultimate Freddy Figure?

    Would be really cool to attach Ultimate Freddy Kruegers Head (and the Hat, too)
    to that Figure.
