I don't know if NECA is doing themselves more good or more harm as a Company with all the Ultimates they release... It's been the same figure time after time after time with new accessories and heads- I can see this being a valid option with something like Jason or freddy where they can package each figure as a different movie version but c'mon- all these Pennywise are from the same dang movie...NECAs "milking" is kind of turning me off them as a company to buy from... Not saying I'm "done!" with them- but I sure am beginning to feel like giving them the same finger they're giving the collectors.

Im sorry but this aint a situation for kids......CALL IN THE COLONIAL MARINES! Burn it with fire, shoot it with pulse rifleS, then squish the everloving hell out of it with a powerloader. Can you imagine if a face hugger got hold of pennywise?

I'm in the middle ground when it comes to the endless "Ultimate" Pennywise figures. I love NECA and will always be a loyal customer, but I do agree that all these Pennywise sets are just ridiculous. Pick a few definitive heads and be done with it. Three separate "Ultimate" releases plus an accessory pack for the same IT figure is just a bit nuts. But then again, I don't have to buy the damn things, so whatever.
Like the guy above said, Ultimates make sense for characters like Jason, but NECA is indeed milking the IT releases. |

I would be fine with a $60 Ultimate Deluxe that had all the parts and pieces of each release. And even a "Basic"figure available with one head that someone could buy that doesn't want all the bits n' kibble... That would still be cheaper than Ultimate after Ultimate after Ultimate of the same figure

I only joke, but at this point I feel like this has been NECA’s M.O. as of late. This is a nice figure for sure, but with the lack of accessories and the continued price-hikes it’s becoming harder to keep supporting my favorite toy company. |

Sir, is this going to be a stand up fight or another pennywise popping?

I don't see what the problem is. These figures are great and I'd rather have multiple bodies to pose the heads with than having just one body and 20 different head accessories. Can't wait for the upcoming Dancing clown pennywise as well.
