Honestly I saw this coming from a mile away. I can't be disappointed though because I was never a club member, however I feel for everyone who may feel a little short changed.

Collectibles are expensive and while I'm a completists with most things NECA especially their Alien and Predator lines, I have to be as thrifty as possible if I'm going to support my hobby. So as soon as I saw the prices for the NECA Club figures I knew it wasn't something for me. I could get them cheaper almost anywhere else. And the sad part is when you're paying all that EXTRA money and this is what you get (not even for free) Yeah... that's a bit of a head scratcher...

I actually dig the figure quite a bit and I'd like to one day own it. As a Toys R Us or Comic Con Exclusive I'm sure most would find it more favorable, but as the reward for a year's worth of participation for a pricey club, I think the backlash speaks for itself. The thing is NECA products, especially the Alien line are already so good they would have sold well without the need of a club. I doubt we'll see Alien Club or other subscriptions services like it making a return in 2018. But hey, if you like it, I love it.
