Batman vs Joker Alien NYCC041

At New York Comic-Con 2019, the final two DC Comics vs Dark Horse Comics sets were made available by NECA Toys. While the sets were originally planned as retail releases a few years back, licensing issues popped up, which prevented that from happening. Negotiations with the various rights holders allowed the four planned sets to be released under strict conditions as convention exclusives. The first two sets were available at San Diego Comic-Con 2019 this past Summer. Those sets included Armored Batman vs Predator, and Superman vs Aliens. For NYCC, a Batman vs Joker Alien Set, and a Green Lantern vs Sinestro Corps Predator Set were available.

Today, thanks to our friends at NECA, I’m sharing my photo gallery and review of the Batman vs Joker Alien set. With this set you receive their all-new Batman and a repainted Resurrection Alien Warrior as the Joker Alien. The Batman figure includes a batarang, and an interchangeable hand. After the jump, you can see my thoughts on the set, as well as a full gallery of both figures.

Superman vs Alien Set 050

Playing catch up with some of the back log I have. Today I am happy to share my photo shoot of the Superman vs Alien 2-Pack from NECA. This set is part of the convention exclusive DC Comics vs Dark Horse Comics sets that NECA is producing. When originally announced, the 2-packs were meant to be retail releases. However, licensing issues caused the sets to be delayed. Ultimately, NECA was able to negotiate the release of each set, though only as convention exclusives. This set was a San Diego Comic-Con 2019 Exclusive, along with a Batman vs Predator set (gallery coming soon). The 2-pack is based on the Superman vs Aliens comics, which had two series. The first was in 1995, while the second series debuted in 2002.

With this set, you get a newly sculpted Superman figure, as well as an Alien Warrior figure. Superman includes a few interchangeable parts, such as different portraits, hands, and heat vision effects. Our friends at NECA provided the figures for review. After the jump, check out my thoughts and a full gallery.
