Over at the forums of blu-ray.com someone found an accidental leak in an email from Scream Factory of a exclusive Tom Atkins retro cloth figure from Night of the Creeps

Thanks for the heads up! Looks like the original reveal came via Dawn of the Discs.

What a surprise.....

Their mego line is amazing.....and this is further proof.

Very cool..plus he's it looks like it'd be easy enough for Neca to release a Halloween 3 figure later on Love the new artwork too, is that going to be the artwork for the figure/bluray combo or just a variant slipcover for the bluray?

Don't know yet. The only info available is the image itself.

OMFG...my life is complete. A Tom Atkins figure!! I'm totally getting this.

Seriously, Tom Atkins is awesome. In addition to all his John Carpenter and other assorted horror flicks (Halloween 3 is the most underrated movie ever), I was recently re-watching watching HBO's Oz and was shocked to discover that he guest-starred on two episodes. I had totally forgotten he was on there.

That's 50% of a mego-style Dr Loomis right there. Just needs a brown suit jacket, a white shirt, and someone with the sculpting chops to release a 1/9 scale Loomis headsculpt :-)

Night of The Creeps Blu-Ray with Detective Ray Cameron Figure Full Details - The Toyark - News

[Tomax]

excellent movie, hopefully they do zombies with Creep worms as accessories and the famous zombie with the prom nite clothes

$70 for the set? Ugh. Night of the Creeps ain't THAT good of a movie.

What are the chances that NECA will do a stand-alone release of the Tom Atkins figure down the line? I know they've done that with other figures they've done for video releases, but I don't know how big a seller this figure would be. Is it possible?

There was a limited run of Mego style Dr.Challis figures made by some company that was pretty expensive, so if you absolutely need a Tom Atkins figure in your life, maybe $70 isn't too bad lol. I have a feeling Neca is going to repurpose this tho. Dont they still have the license for The Fog?

Wow, I had no idea. I Googled some pics of the figure and it doesn't look half as good as NECA's in terms of likeness. I guess I'll just buy the Creeps set and maybe sell the blu-ray on ebay or something.
