Not to get this thread off topic about the new Pennywise figure, but in regards to Crash, I wouldn’t be surprised if Neo Cortex and Coco have either been severely delayed or out right canceled.

If I had to take a guess, I would say the Crash line is selling similar to the Borderlands 2 Claptrap figure where by retailers only want variants of Crash and have little interest for the supporting characters or villains. Either that or NECA killed any future interest in the line by putting out every possible variant of Crash to get their money’s worth out of the sculpt to the point where collectors have all but lost interest in the possibility of side characters and it’s finally showing in the sales.

At the same time I won’t be surprised NECA releases pre-orders for Neo Cortex and Coco really soon, but at this point I’m not holding my breath either.

Going back to It Chapter 2, do any of you think there is any potential for other figures based off Pennywise’s looks from the film that this newest release doesn’t cover?
