Earlier this month, it was announced that Target is now carrying NECA Toys on their website. A batch of new items have been listed, including most of the second assortment of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2-Packs! The listings include everyone but Bebop and Rocksteady. However, this gives us some great official photos for the sets. Included are:

The Turtles themselves have been recolored to match the marketing artwork for the classic TMNT series. This means they are all the same shade of bright green, as opposed to each being their own color. The sets are priced at $51.99 each, however, they are not available to purchase at this time. No specific release date is listed either. We’ll keep an eye out for the Bebop and Rocksteady listing. For now, you can see the new photos after the jump.

Nightbreed Decker 8 Inch Figure 033

The cult classic horror film Nightbreed is nearing it’s 30th anniversary. The film, directed by Clive Barker, follows Aaron Boone, who is suffering crippling nightmares of a city full of monsters. When he visits a psychologist named Dr. Phillip Decker, Boone is framed for the serial killer murders that Decker is committing. Chased down and killed by police, Boone is brought back to life as an inhabitant of Midian, the monster filled city he had visions of. Together, they are forced to face Decker as he schemes to destroy the underground city, and all the monsters who dwell there.

Nightbreed is a fascinating film, with amazing set pieces, a great assortment of creature designs, and a surprising amount of world building. Sadly, it suffered immensely from studio interference, which resulted in a much shorter theatrical film than Clive Barker had wanted. There are have been multiple cuts of the film over the years. The three main versions are the Theatrical Cut, the Cabal Cut, and the recent Director’s Cut. Each one is actually quite different, with the Cabal Cut and Director’s Cut shifting focus away from Decker, and adding more to the Midian mythology. The theatrical cut is the most widely known, and gives us some great scenes with Decker, who is played by horror icon David Cronenberg.

NECA has released an 8″ scale figure of Dr. Phillip Decker in their cloth figure line. The masked figure includes an impressive array of bladed weapons, as well as a suitcase for storing some of the knives. Our friends at NECA have provided us with the figure. After the jump, check out my thoughts and full gallery.

New Nightmare 8 Inch Freddy 040

Twenty-Five years ago this week, Wes Craven’s New Nightmare was released in theaters. Looking to end the franchise on his terms, Wes Craven returned to the directors chair in the hopes of making Freddy Krueger a character to be feared once again. This time, instead of haunting the dreams of Elm Street children, Freddy would enter the “real” world. A demonic force chooses the character of Freddy Krueger to break into our reality. The films and its audience were acting as the bottle, keeping the genie from escaping. But, as the franchise fades, the demon plans to break out of its confines and terrorize those he associated with his misery, namely the actors from the films. Wes Craven, playing himself, hopes to re-contain the demon with an all new “Ultimate” Nightmare film. But the demonic Freddy begins his assault, wreaking havoc on the life of Heather Langenkamp, who portrayed Nancy Thompson in the original and third films. Ultimately, he views Heather as the gatekeeper, preventing him from escaping into the world. While the setup seems initially confusing, as the film unfolds, the story comes into its own for a genuinely solid and scary end to the series. The film also updates Freddy’s look a bit, changing his traditional burned make up to add more defined scarring, giving him a new glove, as well as adding a trench coat.

NECA Toys is releasing a New Nightmare Freddy Krueger in their 8″ scale retro cloth figure line. The figure includes a removable trench coat, a fedora, and swap out regular and demon portraits. Ultimately, this is likely to be the last Freddy Krueger they are able to release for a while. The U.S. film rights to the character and the original film have reverted back to Wes Craven’s estate, causing licensing issues for new product development. We picked up this figure from sponsor Entertainment Earth. We have a full photo gallery and review. You can check them out after the jump.
