    NECA?

    Has anyone actually seen an 8" NECA figure on the shelves anywhere?

      My TRU had them. I saw The Trooper and both Ash and Evil Ash. That was a month or two ago, I haven't been back in a while.

        Only NECA figures I have seen in stores are the Portal 2 figures and the Planet of the apes figures.

          The immediate, local TRU pretty much has a periodic sampling of many of their releases across the past few years, but they don't last long…*hence my previous thread regarding chatting up the TRU employee about who/how/when Neca products are tended to. It's a mysterious and unpredictable aisle.

            My local comic shop had Freddy, and two Jasons. No Eddie figures, though.

              I see them all the time at shows and comic stores, never the ones I want.

              Locally, I think there is a Jason around the corner from me.

              Same thing with Funko, every store seemed to think Firefly was a great idea but passed on the monsters...

                I see them at comic shops and, like Brian, at toy shows. Never seen one in a toy store or department store. Surprisingly however, our boutique toy store in town still has a John A. MacDonald action figure for sale. I'd buy it if it was Mego-style That's the same toy store that was still selling two 12' Mego Spider-Men in 1989 of which I bought one.

                  Canadian TRUs have an "Adults Only" section in the video game area that has a bunch of NECA products. I've been unaware of it's existence until last week, so it's entirely possible they have sold 8" figures in there previously.

                    I've just discovered this section at my local TRU, but I'm under the impression this section is new.

                      I think that section is fairly new at ToysRuS. I'm going to check the one by my work this week.

                        Plenty of comic book stores that carry them, and at conventions.

                          A local comic shop carries the bagged head Jason figure. I'll check out TRU stores this weekend. Some TRU stores are more faithful to carry collector friendly items than others.

                            My comic shop on the west side of Columbus had 2 until I bought them.

                              Comic shops here in Seattle and when I frequent PDX I see them in comic shops and specialty shops. Gave yet to run across at a TRU or indie toy shop.
