The Last of Us 2 - Joel and Ellie Figures by NECA

goliathfasa · 10-29-2021, 06:03 PM

Did they ever make part1 figures? Kind of odd to just jump into part2 and leaving out part1.

Hasbro · 10-29-2021, 06:29 PM

Yikes! Who let the intern sculpt Ellie?

En Sabah Nerd · 10-29-2021, 06:43 PM

Hopefully the final products look better but either way I'm on board.

Harbinger · 10-29-2021, 06:48 PM

Meh….joel looks good but after how they did him seriously dirty in that game….plus this thing is nowhere NEAR worth that ricockulous price tag this is an easy pass.

Zeorn · 10-29-2021, 06:49 PM

Not really interested in normal humans but I'd definitely be in for clickers, shamblers, bloaters, etc. I know you love monsters NECA.

davhuit · 10-29-2021, 07:21 PM

They really abuse on prices.

We used to buy 2 pack figures for $59 but they now ask $75 for it.
Which is way too much for the Neca figures quality.

At this price, I'd rather take figures like figuarts, Figma...

I assume it's 'cuz part 2 is the more recent one (obviously) so it's more fresh in people's minds

Not the best reason but a reason! I'm with others though on it being overpriced, a 2 pack is supposed to save you a few bucks, this is more expensive than buying 2 NECA ultimates at my local Target haha

Sorry but after the first game bored me to tears I have no interest in ever touching the second one. Definitely not interested in picking up overpriced figures.

Not happy about the $75 price tag either but I went ahead and preordered the set at BBTS. I've wanted figures of Joel and Ellie for several years now. And this set is still cheaper than those off brand, One:12 style Those Who Remain Joe and Elle figures that have been announced.

However, I'm worried that this 2 pack is all Neca will make from The Last of Us. IIRC, Randy was asked about TLOU a few years back and his response was that the license was expensive. The price per figure in this 2 pack is $37.50 and, imo, their regular release figures aren't always worth the $30 price tag they go for. On top of that, Neca just doesn't do a lot with modern licenses. They seem to only make a couple of figures before they move on to something else.

As for the actual figures, Joel looks pretty good. No real complaints with him. As for Ellie, I can see her in the sculpt but something is off. Age wise, the face looks closer to Ellie at 14 than Ellie at 19. Same with her expression. Ellie's expression is of a hopeful kid and not an adult in anguish. The paint work throws things off a little further. Her eyes are very piercing, especially in shots with Joel. And she should really have some minor bruises and cuts.

These look so ugly.
Sorry Neca, you can keep your inaccurate Sculpts.

I still hope for the CCToys 2.0 Ellie.
Hope it is not cancelled.

Last of Us 2 is a very awesome Game.
I just wished they would go more Resident Evil
Route with Part 3;
More Shooting, better Progression System,
more Crafting.

Especially now that new Spore Mutations
and the Cult has been thrown into the Genre.

An...Bio Weapon / Using Spore
for Powers and Alteration
would do the Game Justice.

No alternate head for Joel? You know the one, lol.

Maybe it will come with an Abby figure instead. jejejejejeje

Jeremy Kin · 10-30-2021, 02:30 AM

Looks insanely cool! True, Joel resembles "t-800 Dark Fate", but this is trifle.

Riddick · 10-30-2021, 07:01 AM

Part 2 is a mess of a game. They did Joel dirty and the game just sucked.

Huge pass.

Phantomcrow · 10-30-2021, 07:05 AM

All the accessories are great, I would use them for other figures, these look kinda boring but would be great for random background figures, but that price tag is too much. I would have rather had a figure of ALAN WAKE!.

LIES!!!

The game was amazing. One of PS3's finest. But it's okay, I'll forgive ya.

Anyway, these figures would make great victims for Michael/Jason. Maybe Ellie could also be used as the Frankenstein Monster's drowning project.

Alan Wake all the way. That would be awesome.

Awkward Silent · 10-30-2021, 07:50 AM

These seem pretty good, though if I get these I might repaint Ellie's eyebrows into a scowl. She's an angry person in that game, and with good reason - I don't think that neutral expression feels appropriate here.

Alan Wake AND Jesse Faden!

ronriii · 10-30-2021, 03:21 PM

An Alan Wake figure would actually be pretty nice.

I liked Part 1 of TLOU well enough but it should've just stayed as a standalone story. It would be great if we can get figures of the Clickers.

I hate that game never really ended and no plans for a much deserved sequel. It was so much fun.

Play Control if you can! It has a side mission that picks up after the events of Alan Wake and teases a sequel

I still need to play both of those. I've heard nothing but good things.
