SDCC 2019 Etched Pennywise NECA 027

As part of their San Diego Comic-Con 2019 Exclusives, the Etched Pennywise is the latest addition to the IT (2017) line up from NECA Toys. The figure is based on a scene in the film where an etching of Pennywise is shown from the signing of Derry’s town charter. The figure is black and white, with some gray shading, and dark ink lines throughout to emulate the etching itself. The figure includes two swap out heads, a red balloon, a gray balloon, and an extra left hand. The figure is priced at $30, and will be available at NECA’s booth during SDCC 2019.

Our friends at NECA were kind enough to supply us with an advanced sample of the figure. After the jump, you can see photos and some thoughts on the release.

NECA Quarter Scale PEnnywise 001

NECA has released final in-packaging photos for their upcoming IT (2017) – Pennywise 1/4 Scale Figure. The 18″ tall figure includes interchangeable hands and a red balloon. The figure begins shipping to retailers on August 7th, and should be in stores later that month. You can see the new packaging images after the jump.

From the acclaimed 2017 horror film IT, drawn from the pages of Stephen King’s original novel, NECA presents the highly requested Pennywise as a 1/4 scale action figure! Based on Bill Skarsgård’s portrayal of the nightmare-inducing clown, this menacing 18” figure has been painstakingly detailed to be as accurate to Pennywise’s elaborate costume as possible. To recreate the most terrifying scenes from the movie, the fully articulated figure features interchangeable hands and signature red balloon.

FvJ Jason Voorhees NECA 030

At the end of Jason Goes To Hell: The Final Friday, Jason Voorhees is finally defeated, and the heroes walk off into the sunset together. The undead killer from Camp Crystal Lake is finally sent to the deepest bowels of hell to rot for eternity. Jason’s broken mask, partially buried in the spot of his demise is all the remains. Suddenly, we see the clawed hand of Freddy Krueger shoot from the ground, grabbing the mask and pulling it into the underworld. That brief teaser gave a much needed jolt to the franchise, fueling speculation that a film pitting horrors most iconic modern titans against each other. It was no secret that various parties were interested in bringing Freddy and Jason together, but licensing issues and studio interference would derail each attempt before it was ever started. It would be a full decade after Jason Goes To Hell before the crossover film was released. The movie was directed by Ronnie Yu, known for directing the cult hit Bride of Chucky.

The Freddy Vs Jason plot centers on a powerless Freddy Krueger, stuck in Hell now that the residents of Springwood have forgotten about him. He devises a plan to bait Jason into killing Springwood teens, in the hopes that they will blame Freddy, and allow him to stalk their dreams once more. With Jason now on a killing spree in the real world, Freddy is denied the victims he needs in the dream world to re-emerge. The surviving teens discover the plan, and bring Freddy to the real world and pit the two against each other. They brutal fight comes to a near stalemate before Freddy is decapitated, with both he and Jason seemingly dead at the bottom of Crystal Lake. However, the next morning, Jason emerges victorious, or so he believes. As he walks towards the camera with Freddy’s severed head in hand, the disembodied Elm Street Slasher winks at the audience. While the film wasn’t particularly well received, it was a commercial success, and some fans have warmed up to it. Unfortunately, the movie actually marked the end for each of the long running series’. Reboots of both characters were launched in 2009 and 2010, but failed ultimately to spawn new franchises.

Over the years, there have been a few figures here and there for the film. As part of their ongoing line of Ultimate Friday The 13th Figure, NECA Toys has released an all new version of the FvJ Jason Voorhees. The figure begins shipping to retailers next week, and we have an advanced look at the new figure. Jason includes multiple interchangeable masks, machetes, a flame effect, and a teddy bear accessory. After the jump, you can check out a full photo shoot and review for the Freddy vs Jason – Ultimate Jason Voorhees Figure.

Laurie Strode NECA 026

Last year, horror fans saw the return of the Halloween franchise. The film was a combination sequel and reboot that ignores every film after the original 1978 classic. The movie brings back Jamie Lee Curtis as Laurie Strode, who spent the last 40 years as a survivalist, preparing for the return of Michael Myers. The big change to the mythology is that she is no longer the sister of Michael Myers in this new timeline. While there was no “AHA” moment or big twist that made this change necessary, it was still a treat to see the character return after so many years.

With the new movie came a new chance at licensing figures, and NECA Toys delivered earlier this year with a stellar Michael Myers release. They’ve followed that release with the first ever action figure based on Laurie Strode. the newly released figure is based on her appearance in Halloween 2018, and includes multiple weapons, two interchangeable portraits and more. NECA was kind enough to provide a figure for us to check out. After the jump, you can see my thoughts on the figure, as well as my full photo gallery.
