    Playing with my 8" Freddy...

    Just got a NECA Freddy, and I love this guy.
    In a toy way, of course.

    Great head sculpt and very detailed for a figure that small. Same goes for the glove.
    The sweater is terrific, very "in scale" with tight knitting, and no velcro or anything to keep him close at the back: it's just like a real sweater, it stretches.

    They went so far as to use a torso with a sculpted neck (and ball joint head), to keep the whole look authentic.
    The hat fits well, it doesn't sit on top of his head.

    The hip articulation is a bit outdated, so the knees rotate outwards if you want to bend his legs, so that's a down side...

    This is a great start to the line, and I'll go hunting for Jason now!

        I like Freddy a lot as well but I find his hat falls off too easily.

          My Freddy wears a Christmas jumper, which is way more fun!

            Playing with my Dick gives me so much pleasure, I simply never grow tired of playing with it. I had some friends over this weekend, and everyone who saw my Dick wanted to play with it too. We had hours of fun, but unfortunately my dog decided he wanted to play with it too and he left a few slobbery chew marks on my Dick.

              Getting back to topic, I would just love to get a few Hellraiser Cenobites in this line!

                Those are great looking figures. Looking forward to see if Neca tackles Michael Myers and nails it.

                  He seems like the next logical step.
                  Who else could we add to the line-up, not already mentioned?

                    I agree that a Hellraiser figure would be great in this line!

                      There are so many Cenobites, plenty to choose from. A Pinhead and a Chatterer would be a nice start.

                        The other day I whipped out my John Boy, it really impressed the ladies, especially the mole. That IS fun!

                        NECA has some great licenses, I'm hopeful they keep this going.

                          Randy has already said they will be doing one figure per month in 2015...in fact it has already started starting with Ash...the revealed lineup so far has one coming every month

                          Also SDCC will have 6-7 reveals...it sounds like they are running full steam

                            The other day I whipped out my Super Softie. No one was impressed, and I was in fact told that it wasn't too "Super". *sigh*
