But NECA is a lost cause for anything beyond what is mentioned above I think. Those hoping for a company to make Horror, has to hope McFarlane can do it. I am pulling for something like Art the Clown from the Terrifier and the Killer Klowns....but those will NOT come from NECA.

I'd breakdown for Hot Toys also....we need more The Lost Boys....

Haha, Art would be great. Can’t see that ever happening though.

As a huge fan of Jason and the Alien franchise I’m very happy with NECA. Still hoping they’ll release some of the more ambitious designs for Gremlins (Greta is probably a step too far). Generally I don’t think they’re too bad at bringing out surprises. Captain Blake, Reanimator, Tim Curry Pennywise, even the Nun (not that I’ll be buying that one).

It will be interesting to see what happens with NECA in the future, as they’re rapidly running out of Alien and Predator material, and at some point will have to finally deliver an ultimate Jason part 7. I suspect you’re right and that they’re moving away from the horror genre (with more of a focus on new films and sci fi in general).
