Since NECA is pussing out on giving us The Thing figures, maybe McFarlane will man up and do it. However, it's a bummer knowing they wouldn't be able to touch NECA's quality...McFarlane's paint, sculpts, and articulation are all behind the times, even with the improvements they've implemented recently.

I think you're wearing rose-colored glasses. Go and look at those figures again...the sculpts were amazing back in the day, but many don't even remotely hold up these days.

One exception is their The Thing figures...the Blairmonster and Norris spider-thingy both still look pretty fucking good.

I heard the movie is okay, but that the gore is on-point and that it has a potential Top-10 Of All Time kill in it. I'll have to check it out, even if killer clowns are WAYYY played out at this point.

Major bummer, yeah, but I heard the sales of the MEGO Snake wasn't good enough to justify a 7" version, which is a silly way to gauge interest on NECA's part. I loved the MEGO Snake, but there's a lot of collector's that don't like that style of figure but that would have bought the shit out of a standard 7" Snake.

NECA really needs to do an entire Kurt Russell line- Snake, MacReady, and Jack Burton. They'd sell.
