Neca - Crimson Ghost

Agreed! Guess I'll try some white paint.

And I didn't mean to compare your touch-ups to the "original" image, but rather a comparison to the ones appearing on our TRU shelves. Not trying to slight your work at all. (Just want that to be clear.)

Hi,

For all of the folks who have this figure, is the hip articulation the same as Freddy and Jason?


Thanks

[Gorn Captain]

From what I heard, they've addressed that with a new kind of articulation, but I don't know if Ghost already has the new hip...or legs...

saw them at TRU, I just couldn't pull the trigger at 30 bucks plus tax.

[Godzilla]

I was the same way. They just looked slightly off. I stood there a long time debating, but ended up walking away.

I liked him from a movie serial fan aspect, I just couldn't do it for the higher price.

You know what sucks, I bought a coffin for the figure. I walked into TRU the other day and same as everybody else. I looked at it and couldn't buy it. Maybe if they go on sale I will try and fix the skull, eyes and teeth looked bad to me.

I guess the Misfits command big money for the name? I just wonder why its 5 bucks more than the rest of the Neca figures? I don't give a crap about the band, I just want my movie serial star.

[Confessional]

For me the brilliance of the figure worked on two fronts, as the iconic serial villain (and overall great addition to any monster collection) and as the old school (Horror Biz) Misfits fiend. That's a neat (albeit niche) crossover appeal in releasing the two versions.

The on-going, modern flood of new school (post-D) Misfits merch is not of my interest either, but damn, I wished the quality control was better… I paid $24.99 and this is a wide-ranging flaw in the line that requires re-painting of the lower half of the head to (re)capture that iconic look, not an errant tooth here and there. You have to really want it to go through the trouble of fixing it.

I finally broke down and got him, Neca's bodies are amazing. Makes me wish they would have gotten the Dc and Marvel lines.
