The Thing Poster Series 7″ Scale Action Figure
From John Carpenter’s sci-fi horror masterpiece The Thing comes the next figure in NECA’s Poster Series line! Famously painted in just a few hours by the great Drew Struzan—without having seen a single frame of the film—the 1982 movie poster became an icon of horror cinema.
Now you can own a piece of this legendary poster, recreated in action figure form. The fully articulated, 7-inch scale figure features an LED light-up face function, interchangeable light beam faceplates, and deco to match the original painting. It comes in collector-friendly window box packaging designed to showcase the figure in a display that looks like it stepped right out of the poster art! Button cell batteries are included.
