NECA San Diego Comic-Con 2020 Exclusive - Summer Games Gremlin Figure - Toyark Advanced Photo Shoot

NECA with partnership with Walmart is such a bad idea. Still not finding Turtles. NECA had it on their website for order but every time I tried would state incorrect shipping. NECA informed me it was for international customers only. No where did it state that and everything on there except 2 items is for international customers. Walmart must have their balls if they are unable to sell to US customers on their own site. Kiss these exclusives goodbye. Walmart has a hard time with these especially if its a specialty item. Or it comes out 6 months to a year later then on to clearance which has been their mo.

Fun and wacky and different, and the type of thing an exclusive should be. Pretty cool!

The Movie Turtles are Walmart Exclusives in the US. They were very vocal about that fact, and that the NECA Store link for the Turtles was for International Customers only. That info was everywhere.

This is not going to be the case for the Gremlin. that will be available to everyone via their online store.

Good way to get Stripe if you missed him- for me it would just be $30 for some accessories you can probably find in the walmart doll aisle.

[Black Arbor]

Meh.

A (cancelled) SDCC exclusive with a theme of the (cancelled) 2020 Olympics. Man NECA caught a double whammy there. Down the road this will be a perfect representation of this shitty year.

You know there's always a few folks that won't buy online. Unless the "convention" sticker has the collectors in a frenzy then these should be easily available at retail

[HunterKnight]

Yawn.

Shouldn’t stripe be screaming and recoiling from the bright light of the torch? Seems a bit odd. Oh well.nice accessories for accessory collectors, but not a very attractive offering, imho. With all the options available from the movies, I’m surprised Neca made something up.

It's not made up though. It's based on a marketing campaign from when the film was in theaters. There were a number of popular tongue-in-cheek ads in newspapers to promote the film.

interesting.

Those newspaper ads are pretty cool. And from a time when movies played in theaters seemingly forever. From the looks of the ads, it looks like Gremlins was still being played into '85. Fast forward to modern times, Ragnarok came out in November and was out of the theaters by the time Last Jedi came out a month later.
