None of them. Toho prevented them from displaying at Toy Fair. Said they have multiple new ones to show, but aren't allowed to until they get approval.

Meh. Nothing really exciting in the Alien & Predator department for me. I was hoping Ultimate Wolf would be there but I guess they'll save that one for the later.

Nice to see they're already dooming their Crash Bandicoot line by piling the variants together on Wave 1.

Like, Jesus NECA you couldn't spring for a Cortex or a Coco at least?

Fairly unimpressive all around in my opinion. Since they announced the end of the Heroes of the Storm line and that they weren't going to bother making Tulip from Preacher I've lost interest in NECA and nothing here changes that.

Bwahaha, I knew they would milk the Crash mold right when I read that the first figure had a "unique" headsculpt.

Do they want their Crash line to fail? When I heard they had "multiple" figures on display I was expecting Coco, Neo Cortex and maybe some mutants, not two variants of Crash.

Come on Neca...

Look! How cute, NECA has an Ahab predator, too bad nobody else does.
This is all fine and looks cool and had potential but the problem is that these won't bee seen in store until maybe toyfair of next year if we are lucky. Yeah Toho, yeah licenses, they just can't get their stuff out.
We still don't have the stuff they showed us at you fairs last year and they are losing their base because of it. I can't get excited because I don't know if we will ever see any of it or how much of it. I am disappointed with their showing.

Ultimate gremlin looks cool though.

This. NECA has earned my patience but it only goes so far. I feel like a comoany that's been at this so long shoulda seen licensing issues on the horizon with those DC/Alien sets...

That's the excuse they have been using for the last year. Sure, I believe that they have "multiple" ones to show. They're probably all repaints of their existing figures. They haven't had a new figure in almost a year, and even longer if you exclude Shin.

I was looking forward to the new Pennywise figure, but, damn, the classic looks so good. I'll need to see what the final version of the new one looks like, but I may end up passing on it and just get the original.

Hand on heart, I've never been disappointed with a Neca prototype... until now. That 2017 Pennywise is a real let down. If you're going to do an ancient, murdering, creepy-assed clown you've gotta go full on ancient, murdering, creepy-assed clown, and Neca have missed the mark by a considerable distance. The non-bloody headsculpts are just... too nice, and proportionately, it's all wrong too. As for the "classic" Pennywise; it's crying out for the retro clothed style imho. Yes, I know they're just prototypes. But I also know that Neca generally don't show anything until they feel they're almost there, and they're a helluva long way from prying more cash from my wallet. Sorry.

..."excuse" "repaints", the whining is strong with this one

The pennywise figure looks sick, the portraits all capture his likeness perfectly. Do I dare say that they do a better overall job than Mezco?

Holy shit @ all this Alien/Predator stuff. Glad they're doing a Kenner style Apone! Also that Scorpion Alien looks fantastic. I'm not really on board with the Snake one though. Didn't even like him when I was a kid.

Also Linn, Dutch and Noguchi all look great. Did they tweak Noguchi's face sculpt/paint a bit? It seems to look a lot better than that early version we saw a few months back.

Super pumped about a lot of this stuff. NECA are knocking it out of the park in my book.

While I respect your opinion, I think you're definitely in the minority there. The Curry Pennywise looks fantastic and the newer one is supposed to be a little gangly and odd I believe. Plus I'm pretty sure he's an oversized prototype so any issues will likely be fixed by production time...

100% agree with you, not to mention these Ultimate figures cost around $25-30. People ask for way too much anymore. They look great! Wouldn't be surprised if we get a final battle version as well.

Still hoping the Alien/Predator/DC are moving ahead! Also hoping to see Judge Dredd appear in that line as he crossed over also.
