That's kinda sweet

[IzzyTipsy]

Kind of cool, especially because it can have a black hole of a head and fill in for a generic horror being.

[Black Arbor]

Oh goddammit, and here I was thinking I could safely ignore the con exclusives

[AlienK]

This is rad, I've always wanted the poster art as a figure. How hard is it to get NECA con exclusives outside of the US? Specifically the UK.

Same here. I need this.

[deecee4]

The lit up figure without the light fx accessory is extremely creepy..

[Boogieman4hire]

This is really eerie but very cool. Still I never once thought of this as becoming a figure.

[Black Arbor]

I wonder if we'll see other characters besides Macready, didn't Childs or Blair wear a coat pretty similar to this in the movie? Would be an easy torso reuse haha

Same. As someone who mentally wishlists figures based on movie poster art, having a figure of this guy never occured to me.

[Tokyomeltdown]

This isn't all that interesting, would be nice to have Childs.

Yeah make Childs convention exclusive, that'd go over well

To me this is a great con exclusive, it has that gimmick appeal but most won't consider it a necessary piece to collect.

My thoughts exactly. Not an essential figure to have, but a fun novelty. If I can find one I'll get it.

[Dolemite]

Geez, count me in with the crowd who never knew they wanted this until NECA announced it. Very, very interesting release.

[Black Arbor]

50 fucking dollars from the NECA store!? I don't know what kind of crack they're smoking in the offices, but this is a 35 dollar figure MAX! I can still walk into Target and find the deluxe Pennywise set with four heads, swappable insect arms, LED light features and more for only 30 bucks!

I think I've been conditioned to these ridiculous prices already cause I dont think $50 is a big deal but yeah you're probably right.

Well I get that it's a lower production run on these and there may have even been some rush-job fees to get these ready by July due to factory delays, but at some point it's just more than I'm comfortable spending. (Though I'm sure I'll have talked myself into buying it by June 3rd )

[scarrviper]

$50+ is too much. Probably not going to get this after all

[ghostbogey]

Too Sweet.....
Where can I pre-pre??? ;^)

[IzzyTipsy]

Man, I hope these things hit mass retail later. $150 for yet another NECA pre-order is too much for my bank account.

[Dolemite]

I just preordered two of The Thing figures (my girlfriend wanted one too). Checked out easily and with no issues.

Speaking of The Thing, it's being rereleased in theaters later this month for two days (June 19 and 22). I already have my tickets, and if you're interested I suggest you get yours ASAP before they sell out.

[Phantomcrow]

Got my Greta and Tmnt 4 pack ordered. No issues at all.

[AlienK]

Got my Thing with no hassle, glad everything didn't sell out instantly, the international shipping was pretty cheap too at only $8 and I even tested what it would have been if I bought 2 and it was still $8.

Btw when do these ship? The site says it'll be a week after the sale but I remember the twitter saying they wont ship until SDCC.

[HoovenIV]

I'm usually on top of these NECA things. But I totally missed it due to work. Pretty peeved right now since I've been all caught up on my TMNT stuff.
