NECA Packages Exclusive Kick-Ass 2 Action Figures for San Diego Comic-Con

NECA Kick-Ass 2 SDCC Exclusives

If you want the jump on Kick-Ass 2 action figures ahead of their planned release with the movie in August, then you’ll have to get your ass (or someone else’s) to San Diego Comic-Con, where the first of NECA’s line of Kick-Ass 2 figures will be available. And as a bonus, the SDCC versions will come with special packaging more aligned with the film’s R rating – they’ll be devoid of any censoring. To make the general release more retail friendly, any mentions of Kick-Ass and the Mother Fucker will appear on the regular packaging as KA and MFer.

It’s difficult to tell with the others, but I’m glad to see that Kick-Ass has got a lot more articulation than the one that NECA made for the first movie. That one was closer to a statue, while this one has Mattel hips, articulation in the torso, and elbros. That’s a big step up.

Win Pacific Rim Action Figures and HeroClix from NECA

After posting the Sideshow contest I started clicking around for more Pacific Rim info – somehow I missed the announcement last week for NECA’s giveaway. They’re now in week two of giveaways for four NECA Pacific Rim prize packs. The action figures look great, but I’m most thrilled about the HeroClix. I like the idea of scale reversal – to the Heroclix kaiju I’m monster-sized!

Lone Ranger, Pacific Rim, Aliens, and Predators in NECA’s eBay Store

7-inch The Lone Ranger & Tonto Action Figures - Complete Series 1 Set Pacific Rim - 7-inch Scale Jaeger Crimson Typhoon Action Figure - NECA Series 1 Aliens - 7-inch Scale Corporal Dwayne Hicks Action Figure - Series 1 Predators Series 9 - 7-inch Jungle Encounter Dutch Schaefer Action Figure

If you are willing to pay just a little more for the convenience of avoiding the hunt, then NECA’s eBay store is a great place to pick up hard to find items. Toys R Us had been fairly reliable with their aisle for collectors, but the ones in my area have squeezed out a lot of the shelf space that had been allocated for it.

NECA Reveals 1/4 Scale Elder and Big Red Predators Series 3

NECA Quarter Scale Predators Series 3 - Elder and Big Red

I knew NECA has been on a tear with their quarter scale figures, but had no idea they’d already done two sets of Predators already. The Elder and Big Red (from Sandy Collora’s Batman: Dead End short film) are series 3, and I’m just amazed at the detail these figures have. In 1/4 scale, these figures will both tower over your other figures at 19-inches tall.

These should come in priced at around $90 each.

NECA Reveals 7-Inch Scaled ED-209 from RoboCop

NECA RoboCop ED-209As much as you want to comply, maybe the Hot Toys ED-209 and RoboCop figures would put too much of a hit on your wallet. If so, NECA has the answer. To accompany NECA’s line of 7-inch RoboCop figures, they’ve just shown off their upcoming ED-209, due on shelves in September.

The Enforcement Droid will be nearly 10 inches tall to be in scale with RoboCop, and will have articulation in the head, arms, and legs. You’ll also be able to open panels on ED-209’s arms and pop out a rocket launcher on his right arm. If that’s not enough, ED-209 will also feature a sound chip with hydraulic sounds and quotes from the movie. “You have fifteen seconds to comply.”

Retailers will have once chance to order – NECA intends to have only one single production run, and after that this beast is retired.
