NES Contra Video Game Appearance 2-Pack by NECA – Toyark Photo Shoot

Posted on August 26, 2016 at 10:26 am by Joe Moore under Random Photo Shoot, Video Game Toy News

Contra! The classic Konmai video game was one of the defining games in the early years of the NES, and is still beloved by fans today. It’s best remember not only for it’s amazing soundtrack, but for the most well known secret code in video game history, giving players 30 lives. The game sees you control either Bill Rizer or Lance Bean as you take on Red Falcon, a massive alien creature leading an army of assorted alien warriors and creatures to take over the world. The game was a classic side scrolling shooter with platforming elements and also featured third person shooter stages throughout.

For years, fans have been hoping to see NECA create figures based on Contra. With them previously releasing both Arnold Schwarzenegger’s Dutch and Sylvester Stallone’s Rambo (characters that clearly inspired the box art for the game), it seemed like a no brainer. Now, thanks to years of negotiations and back and forth with Konami, fans can finally grab a 2-pack featuring Bill and Lance from the game. NECA sent along the set for us to check out, and we have nearly 70 high resolution images to check out as well as a full review.

NECA Contra Figures Available Now

Posted on August 11, 2016 at 8:39 pm by Joe Moore under Video Game Toy News

The Contra Video Game Appearance 2-Pack is finally making their way to retail stores. Ahead of the official release, NECA has put some on their Amazon and Ebay Stores.

We are proud to welcome a long-awaited, frequently requested addition to NECA’s line of classic video game tribute figures — as well as the first appearance of non-movie-based characters in the series. This special edition 2-pack from the fan favorite video game Contra includes Bill and Lance in an homage to their 8-bit glory days with Konami.

Standing approximately 7” tall, the figures have all new head sculpts and “pixilated” paint deco. The set includes custom-designed weapons based on the classic game; detachable blast effects for the weapons; and that infamous power-up capsule with a clear support stand for “floating” effect. Special window box packaging recreates the look of the classic game cartridge.

You can order the NES Contra Figures on the NECA Ebay Store or the NECA Amazon Store (UPDATE: Sold out on Amazon). It will still be at least a few weeks before these are available at retail.

NECA Christmas Teases and VGA Visual Guide

Posted on December 28, 2015 at 4:59 pm by Joe Moore under DC Toy News, Horror Toy News, Video Game Toy News

Time to do some catching up. Thanks for everyone’s patience while we recover from Christmas break. Things may be a little slow for a few more days. So here’s a bit of catch up from NECA. On Twitter, early Christmas morning, they shared out some new teasers. Included were:

  • Batman v Superman – 1/4 Scale Batman Figure Preview
  • Ash vs Evil Dead – 7″ Scale Ash Figure Preview
  • Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2 – 8″ Retro Mego Style Leatherface Card Art
  • Uncharted 4 – Nathan Drake 7″ Scale Figure Preview
  • Predator: Concrete Jungle – Scarface Predator 7″ Scale Figure Preview
  • Alien – Cinemachines Nostromo Vehicle Preview

They also released their final download from the 12 Days of downloads. It was an awesome looking Classic Video Game Appearance Visual Guide. The guide contains only the figures that come in the game style flapped window box packaging. It doesn’t contain the Robocop vs Terminator figures or the Mego style classic game figures. You can check them all out after the jump.

NECA Reveals Contra Classic Game Figures

Posted on December 3, 2015 at 12:06 pm by Joe Moore under Video Game Toy News

Since San Diego Comic-Con 2015, NECA has claimed there was a hidden item in their display. An item that would give way to a major reveal. Unfortunately, it seems as if no one was able to spot the item, and reveal the upcoming release. Well, today that changes as NECA has revealed their latest Classic Game Appearance release, and it’s one fans have been requesting for years. Check out this video reveal for the NES Contra 2-Pack featuring Bill Rizer and Lance Bean!

The figures look to be retooled versions of previously released Arnold Schwarzenegger’ Dutch Schaefer and Sylvester Stallone’s Rambo figures. They feature new heads, new weapons (spread shot!) and even a weapon capsule accessory. They come packaged in a wonderful flapped window box that pays homage to the classic NES game packaging. Pre-orders are set to begin today!

UPDATE:
NECA has released high resolution photos and full details. The figures are due out April 2016. More from NECA:
