OH MY GOOODDDDDDDDDDD

Seriously, these Contra figures are AWESOME. I've been on the fence about NECA's videogame figures...some are great (Robocop Vs. Terminator, Predator 2, etc) while some are horrible (that freaking green Leatherface being the worst), but Contra figures, with the spread-shot guns and everything? Hell yes, please.

BTW, the re-use of the Dutch and Rambo figures not only works perfectly, but it's ironically very appropriate as well, considering the fact that Konami was *ahem* "inspired" by these two action icons when it came to creating Contra's cover art back in the day.

The American version's art was quite clearly ripped directly from Predator:


And let's not even get started on the Japanese cover (lol):
