Friday the 13th Part 5 Roy as Jason 8-Inch Action Figure:
Coming to your figure collection is the impostor Jason (aka Roy) from Friday the 13th Part 5 as an articulated action figure! This rare figure of the infamous faker stands 8-inches tall and is dressed in tailored fabric clothing, paying homage to the retro toy lines that helped define the licensed action figure market in the 1970s. Jason / Roy comes with movie accurate accessories, including cleaver, clippers, and hunting knife, plus a removable mask with the blue chevrons that were unique to Friday the 13th Part 5. As a special bonus, the packaging features custom artwork created just for this release!

will they do a new sculpt under the mask?

It was shown at Toy Fair, along with Part 2 Jason.

Nice!
Did not see this coming, but this line looks promising...

I would have no idea that this was a variant. While I have no interest, it's nice to see that NECA is expanding this range, must be selling OK.

[Gorn Captain]

I don't really need all the different Jasons, but if this keeps the line going, it can take us to Evil Dead Ash, and many more.

I'm pretty sure I'll be okay with one Jason and a couple of Freddy's, but given how deep they have gone in the variants and versions on the 7" NECA figures, I guess this opens the door up for the horror/slasher fans to enter the Mego world.

I will however buy every single variant and version of Ash I an lay my hands on. This is a dream come true. Evil Ash, S-Mart Ash, Medievil Ash, etc etc. And I want Henrietta and Deadites.

This would make a great "Big Daddy" zombie from Land of the Dead.
All you need to find is a headsculpt...

Looks like there are several of these in the works.

With the rest of the 8" lines I collected canceled, I think I'll move over this one.
We've had classic horror, now it's modern horror. Cool!
