Yesterday, fans of NECA Toys started to report that they found new NECA sections at their local Walmart stores. The section includes an assortment of Ultimate Figures, the Toony Terrors, and more. Also included are two exclusive Ultimate Figures. NECA has taken two figures, who were previously a part of Ultimate 2-packs, and are offering them individually. These include Hero Ash from Evil Dead 2, as well as Chucky from Bride of Chucky. Each figure is packed in a new flapped window box, and includes a number of accessories and interchangeable parts.
Much like their agreement with Target, the section is located with their entertainment items, such as movies. According to NECA, these are coming to “select Walmarts”. So your mileage may vary. The figures are priced at $29.96 each. You can see the exclusive versions of Ash and Chucky after the jump.
New NECA Figures Coming to Walmart Stores
Great news, but I wish a list of Walmart’s to carry these would drop.
Good news for NECA! Glad to see that they're continuing to set up retail options to make up for the loss of Toys R Us.
This is great for those who missed out, but this reveal seems rather anticlimactic for how cryptic and secretive Randy and the NECA team were being when they first revealed the boxes at SDCC19, especially when you consider that NECA at Walmart isn’t really a new thing.
The new fleshtone paint job on Ash looks nice. Chucky looks good too, but this version feels rather incomplete without Tiffany which I thought was the whole point of the 2-pack.
This would have been a great opportunity for NECA to release an updated Hero from the Sky Ash instead.
The price on these also kills any interest I may have had in picking them up. This doesn’t bode well for the price of future figures. 2020 is going to be like $35-$40 for an Ultimate figure and $60-$70 for dual-pack releases.
It's hard to tell, but the way the light is hitting the cheekbones on the head sculpts, it looks like that could be the case. I'm actually going to NYCC tomorrow...I'll swing by the NECA booth and maybe I'll be able to see one up close. I shall report back!
Ahhh, I thought I spotted a white box front for Evil Dead 2 at SDCC. They kinda sneaked it in their display but I didn't see any info about it. I'm glad that new Ash is getting a single card release...odd that it's a Wal Mart release, lol. When was the last time Wal Mart carried anything like this? Not since the Spawn movie way back in the day and that was McFarlane. I can't ever recall seeing NECA Horror toys at Wal Mart though.
That Ash shall be mine! With force Friday and this hitting I ain’t gonna have any money left haha
This is great! I really wanted to get another Evil Dead 2/opening scenes of Army of Darkness version of Ash. If I can actually find one at WM I will surely pick it up.
Anyone know why there wasn't any Army of Darkness merch from NECA? It's certainly the most toyetic film in the Evil Dead franchise. Imagine a Delta '88 that can be converted into the Murder Machine Ash rides at the end of AOD!
