I was pretty disappointed with Sideshow's Snake Plissken final product. I hope PCS can deliver on this. I've wanted a MacReady for a long time.

Same here. I actually really dig the NECA Snake Plissken. The likeness IMO is really good!
It's well worth the $25.

This PCS MacReady is definitely in it's early stages. Not feeling this head sculpt quite yet. The beard is(surprisingly)too short. Kurt had a huge beard when he played MacReady. Jim Morrison like. Great character! I look forward to seeing the final product.

Oh man, this is INCREDIBLE. I can't wait to see the final product, as this is far and away my favorite horror movie.

I'll do whatever I can to grab the figure if and when it comes out. PCS has teased 1/6 scale figure a bunch of different times, but none have made it to production (at least not yet), so I'm not sure what price point they're going for.

Got bored of the 1/6 scale format years ago, but totally up for another classic Carpenter character! And totally happy with Sideshow's Plissken, just needed a little weathering on the jacket. Bring on MacReady!

Odd that it says "figures" and not "figure." Does that mean they're making other characters as well? I haven't heard about anything other than MacReady.

I sure hope so. Perhaps a few of the Things. Norris, Palmer, Blair Monster would all be welcome.

Goddamnit I HATE that spider-head. I've seen The Thing at least thousand times (easily one of the greatest movies of all time) and it still creeps me right the **** out. *shudders*

They haven't offered it yet, or fully revealed anything. They're still posting sculpted teasers ontheir Instagram. Nothing worth really sharing yet outside of the Norris Spider-Head.

Looking good. I can't wait for the full MacReady reveal...it feels like this line has been in development forever.

BTW, just to illustrate how much my girlfriend and I love The Thing, we just got a new kitten and named him "R.J."

Damn that Norris head looks nice. Too bad I don't collect 1/6.

If only Neca could do this too.

I hope when you picked your cat out you whispered in his ear "If we've got any surprises for each other, I don't think we're in much shape to do anything about it"

Really? Ugh. What the heck happened?

I seriously hope those 7" figures make it out, but it's seeming more and more unlikely. SOTA already canceled that American Werewolf set once, now PCS will carry on the tradition.
