Oh wow, Steven Universe figures that aren't pop vinyls.

They should change their name to McFarlane Statues...

Will the Saitama and the Attack on Titan figures be their typical half assed articulation or will they actually articulate? And is that Negan(?) and Glenn two-pack going to be articulated or are they statues?

They should've done that over a decade ago.
Since the card says 5" scale I'd assume they're part of the articulated line.

I like the look of their Saitama. Hopefully he's just an early prototype and will be one of the ones released with the updated articulation. If so and he sells well, I'd like to see them do somemore OPM figures, like Genos, Bang, Sonic, and Tornado.

I guess you right, I thought they change their ways.
That Mikasa is depressing.

Why do the South Park figures all look way too skinny and tall? You'd think they would be the easiest figures ever to sculpt. Way to go, Todd.

Nope. NECA was going to do the Borderlands 2 hunters, or at least Salvador and 0, but according to Randy the reaction wasn't strong enough to get stores on board. I completely missed out on all of NECA's Borderlands stuff so I'm hopeful McFarlane will also do Claptrap.

I don't really have a problem with McFarlane sticking with their staction figures. Personally, I don't play with them and I really don't think they are targeting kids (not that adults don't sometimes "play" with their figures) They are bought for my collection for the sole purpose of their shelf presence. It's what they did well, very well, in the 2000's. The difference now is the lack of dynamic posing. It seems like every figure now is just more or less standing up right...a casual pose for the camera, if you will. The dynamic poses of old are what keep the old Spawn, etc. figures so appealing even after all these years.
And yes, give us more One Punch Man!! |

Just read that Genos has been confirmed to be in development alongside Saitama, so we'll at least get the main two OPM characters from them.
Also read that they've apparently hinted at doing a Ghost in the Shell Major figure, supposedly one based on the live-action movie. I was kinda hopinf Neca would make a figure of her, but I'll take what I can get. Hopefully if they're actually making her she'll have the updated articulation.
