NECA The Exorcist Possessed Regan Deluxe Set

This is probably one of the more disturbing action figures I’ve seen. With spinning head action, the only think that could have made it more so would be if it shot pea soup of her mouth.

If NECA has this on display at San Diego Comic-Con, I’ll try to get some video of it. Yikes!

She’ll Make Your Head Spin

…Or at least hers will

It’s one of horror cinema’s all-time classic images: little girl, in bed, head spinning. NECA is proud to unveil our deluxe Exorcist boxed set of poor possessed Regan — complete with motorized spinning head!

The bed on which she rests is over 7” long, almost 6” across and over 5” tall. Regan herself is articulated at the neck, shoulders, and forearms, and motorized action allows the head to rotate 360 degrees timed in sync with the actual movie scene. The figure also plays music straight out of the film.

In the true spirit of terror — as in, you should be afraid you might not get one — we’re limiting our dear Regan to ONE PRODUCTION RUN. That’s it, buddy. Once they’re gone, they’re gone. It’ll be like they’ve been exorcised from our catalog.

The Regan deluxe boxed set will hit stores late September or October (in time for Halloween) and will also be featured on our Amazon storefront.

DC HeroClix Brightest Day Aquaman and Osiris

With the Blackest Night Heroclix, NECA and WizKids started using digital sculpts to great effect – see their announcements for Mera and Hal Jordan, Lex Luthor, Scarecrow, the Atom, and Wonder Woman.

Now for Brightest Day, they’re following these up with a new seven-figure pack, including Aquaman and Osiris. For this scale, I think these show a lot of detail.

AFTER BLACKEST NIGHT COMES BRIGHTEST DAY! AQUAMAN & OSIRIS

The DC HeroClix Brightest Day Action Pack, available October 2010, is the follow-up product to the highly acclaimed DC HeroClix Blackest Night Starter Game. Tying in with DC Comics hit Brightest Day year-long series, the DC HeroClix Brightest Day Action Pack includes seven highly detailed HeroClix 3D figures ripped directly from the pages of the Brightest Day comic, plus an all-new, double-sided HeroClix map.

WizKids / NECA Announces Star Trek HeroClix

Two things are interesting to me about the announcement of Star Trek HeroClix. First, they talk about a digital component – I am not quite sure what that means, but if it means an online aspect to the game, that’d be pretty cool.

The second is something not stated in the release, but definitely something to watch for – if the line takes off, I’m wondering if we’ll get collosal game pieces for the Enterprise and other ships, like the Romulan Warbird or the Klingon Bird of Prey.

Heroclix Jonah Hex Press Pics

It’s nice to see Jonah Hex finally getting his due. Here’s some pics of upcoming Hex Heroclix (that’s got a nice ring to it), expected in August, to accompany the movie. Jonah Hex opens in a couple of weeks, on June 18.

The rumors are true!  Megan Fox Jonah Hex is finally coming to the HeroClix with the DC HeroClix Jonah Hex Battle Pack. The movie themed Battle Pack contains three brand new, figures: Jonah Hex, Lilah, and Turnbull!  The 3 fig Battle Pack is 100% HeroClix compatible and will be available mid-August.  Check your local game or comic store this fall.

BTW – These are actual production pieces (off the line).  I think they are some of the best eyes we’ve done to date.  Let me know what you think.

NECA Predators Teaser Pic

Alright – silhouettes of figures may be frustrating, but I’m looking forward to seeing NECA’s take on Predators. Is it too much to hope for super-articulation? I’m guessing it probably is.

New Predators!

A glimpse at the newest and meanest hunters in the galaxy!

Today we at NECA are thrilled to show the first preview of our first line of figures based on the new Predators movie. We can’t show you the faces of these beauties yet, but you can check out the silhouettes of the Classic Predator, Falconer Predator and Berzerker Predator.

More details coming soon. Predators opens July 9, 2010, and our first series of action figures hits shelves the same month.
