In 2013, NECA released a 7″ scale action figure based on Gordon Freeman from the insanely popular video game Half-Life 2.

The final wave of Heroes of the Storm figures by NECA can be found in stores now. The assortment includes Jim Raynor from Starscraft, Sylvanas from World of Warcraft and Thrall from Warcraft. As each of the three figures is very different in style, I’ll be taking a look at each of them individually. I’m kicking things off with the Jim Raynor 7″ Scale Figure. Originally part of the Starscraft game franchise, Raynor is a basic attack Assassin Hero in Heroes of the Storm, excelling at ranged attacks. The figure includes the C-14 Impaler Gauss Rifle.

NECA Heroes of the Storm Stitches – Toyark Photo Shoot

Posted on January 21, 2016 at 3:00 pm by Joe Moore under Random Photo Shoot, Video Game Toy News

Welcome to gallery 499! Tomorrow we hit 500 and hope you will tune in to check it out. The Heroes of the Storm toy line by NECA is a pretty big hit so far. They have released some really fantastic characters from the Blizzard Entertainment universe so far. None more popular than Tyrael and Arthas I’d say. It’s not surprising as the fan bases for both World of Warcraft and Diablo 3 are massive. While I skipped wave 1, I couldn’t pass up the fantastic choices for Wave 2. Toyark sponsor Entertainment Earth sent along the Heroes of the Storm Stitches Deluxe Figure for us to review. I also managed to finally find both Arthas and Tyrael to include in the photo shoot. After the jump, find my full review for Stitches as well as over 55 high resolution images.
