NECA Previews Their Spyro The Dragon Figure

[AlanThCollector]

This looks pretty awesome! I think it’s even better than their attempts at Crash Babdicoot. I ‘mvreally curious to see the final production figure complete with all the articulation tkNECAcis saying it has in the description.

The only thing I’m nervous about are the ball jointed wings. Given the size of them I would imagine those are the first things getting loose on this figure.

Now the only question is if NECA plans one on going deep in this line like they plan on doing for Crash, or if we’re just going to see a bunch of expression variants.

Loved this series, this looks great I'll definitely get one. Really hope they keep making PSOne game figured, need them to make a MediEvil Dan figure in a major way

With Medieval getting a remake, this is probably the best chance of them doing one.

That is exactly why I'm hopeful, but it's not the most popular series. I'm surprised it's getting remastered, very excited as is, icing on the cake would be a figure from NECA.

I'm curious why they didn't add knee articulation. All the other articulation is kind of negated by the fact his legs will always be straight.

[SpasticPlastic]

Looks great. I agree about the lack of knee joints, though. It'd be nice to get him sitting on his haunches.

Yeah, it's my only gripe. I love the sculpt. This is still a hand painted proto, so hopefully there's time for them to add knees.

I could be wrong, but I have a strong feeling that we’ll see knee articulation once they show off the production samples. This looks to be a product shot of the paint master without all the extra articulation added in. Even the tail in the image looks pretty static though NECA says it’s going to have articulation at the segments.

(Just look at their initial images of the land version of Otachi vs what we ended up getting. I recall they did the same thing with the Crash figure whereby early pictures looked as if he would have very little bend at the elbows.

[Toonstrack]

Def could use knees but Im loving the sculpt otherwise. Do Sonic next, NECA, and youll have me for the long haul.

[Dolemite]

I'm gonna go against the grain here, as I see what NECA's doing with the omission of knee joints. I think between the thigh joints and the ankle joints Spyro would still have a good amount of articulation. Not saying that knees wouldn't be welcome as well, but he'll still be pretty posable without 'em.

[Philimanjaro]

Nope, still no knees. Oh, well. Still a great-looking figure, though.

I think it might tho. The pics on the package seem to be the promo pics without some of the cuts, the package pics don't appear to even show all the accurate tail articulation that I can see in side the blister so I am hoping that's the case for the knees. Even if not, still getting it.

[Dolemite]

I'l wait for NECA to release three variants on this figure, and finally the Ultimate version they should have released to begin with.

[Joe Moore]

I can confirm the final production version does not have any knee articulation. What you see in the promo shots is pretty much the final look.

[LightDaggers]

Spyro looks awesome!

This. Also, how could they release a Spyro figure WITHOUT Sparx??

[Zorn88]

Spyro looks amazing, but I'll wait for the super duper ultra mega awesome edition with all the accessories.

Nice! There was a limited release shipment that went out about 2 weeks ago, but I had only heard about GameStop's getting those. First I've heard that Target had them so soon.
