Think we’ll see something new or maybe just a sale of old items? Really hoping for new stuff… especially with this being Aliens 40th anniversary
>>11766781I just got the Xenomorph Queen at an FYE in Tacoma.I used to have one that I lost in a move. I'm surprised to see how much better the quality is on this one, though. No stuck joints, everything supple and flexible, the only issue remains the little spikes on the back which never really worked for me on the old one either.Anyways, if NECA's quality has jumped this much since I got the last one then I gotta get some more aliens from them. Always wanted a Specimen 6 from AVP.
>>11766781I would like a three pack of Lambert, Dallas and Kane in their normal cloths. A Nostromo pack of sorts, so we can have the whole crew in their cloths they had for most of the movie. Would like Gorman, Drake, Apone figures also. As far as Aliens go, we haven't gotten the AVPR Xeno update. Kenner tribute figures too. Beyond that I don't know.
Ultimate all black Aliens warrior.
>>11768452
>>11764968I just finished watching "It" -the tv-show.Will neca continue milking Pennywise? i hope so - i moved far away from my parents house and left pre 2020 neca pennywises in it.I want to have him again.PS:HOLY SHIT they made so many pennywises...maybe i'll just get picrelated and be done with it.
>>11768452>>11768453Is this actually new at all or just a rerelease?
>>11768489Repaint, a good one and constantly requested though.There could be some adjustments to the figure, but we won't know till it's in hand.
>>11768503I’ve never seen anyone request that.
>>11768552You should open your eyes once in a while then
>>11768484They've made three "Ultimate Pennywise" toys just off the first season of the show. One of Bob Gray, one of his bloody look, and one that just looks like a rerelease of the chapter one figure.I strongly suspect we're not going to get a Periwinkle figure though.
>>11768452>Anyways, if NECA's quality has jumped this much since I got the last one then I gotta get some more aliens from them.The universe provides, anons.
>>11768554He’s right, nobody requests it Necanon. They’re easy to find.
>>11768637Whatever you say crazy person.
If all we get for the Aliens 40th anniversary is a repainted 8 year figure, then that’s extremely disappointing.
>>11768664What should they do
>>11768552>>11768637
When the fuck are NECA doing Elmo? Blokees completely beat them to the punch.
>>11768759
>>11768766...? I'm just wondering, seems weird that NECA did some pretty good Sesame Street figures but never made one of the most iconic/popular characters.
>>11768769
>>11768786I'm genuinely not sure what you're talking about.
>>11768788You're not good at this at all.
>>11768790Good at what?
>>11768484Jesus, I think that's every head except for the Dead Lights one.
>>11768665See >>11767354 for a starting list.Also Alien Earth is an option I'm surprised they haven't jumped on. Even if it went to shit by the end, the creature designs were pretty good.
>>11768766>>11768786schizo
>>11768786>>11768766
>>11768484>HOLY SHIT they made so many pennywises...>maybe i'll just get picrelated and be done with it.>>11768802>Jesus, I think that's every head except for the Dead Lights one.That's a nice collection of heads but they still fucked up.One of the best Pennywise heads is unimpressed serious one.it's one of heads i used the most.
>>11769314
>>11769328
>>11768453Well hell's bells, Alien Isolation 2...and it appears to take place on or on a place like Hadley's Hope on LV-426. Meaning I bet the xeno's will be more like the Aliens versions. Maybe. Would be cool.
Power Loader is getting a re-release! They also have the queen back up for order and the egg cartons, and the black xeno.
>>11770131>rerelease the power loader>but no aliens ripley rereleaseWhat’s the point?
>>11770136That there probably is more coming and will be revealed at Comic Con in July.Beyond that, a ton of people didn't get the power loader, so it's good for those folks in general.
>>11770131Will this stuff be hitting BBTS as well? I prefer not to buy from the NECAstore.
Elmo's popular and makes merch money, so naturally, NECA wouldn't make a figure of him. Even if they did, they'd use the bendy wire arms thing like they did for Grover.
>>11770141Nothing I've read so far indicates any of it is exclusive to the NECA store.
>>11770131>>11770137Why has nobody done a comparison of the Moderoid and NECA power loaders?
>>11770418Seconding this. I own the kit (unbuilt atm) but now I’m considering reselling it and just buying the Neca since the moderoid requires a bit of paint (especially Ripley). Articulation is more what I care about over scale, so if anyone has both or either to showcase the range of posing I’d appreciate it.
>>11764968im surprised neca havent made them yet. what gives?
>>11770166
>>11770662>im surprised neca havent made them yet. what givesbad idea.I'd love to see Super 7 making it.TMNT from super7 was super fun and amazing.they would make cool toy-etic boxes. NECA has same style of realistic boxes for adults
>>11770796Super7's boxes were complete wastes of material. They were bigger than they needed to be and it's even more apparent with how little they stick in the boxes. Shit.>>11770662They'd be pretty great if they did make them. I think they'd be one of the few companies that would put the proper attention to detail in, especially the gorgonites.
>>11770796>TMNT from super7 was super fun and amazing.Spoken like someone who never opened them
>>11770823>Spoken like someone who never opened themobviously i have multiple super 7 toys you dumbass>>11770812>Super7's boxes were complete wastes of material. They were bigger than they needed to be and it's even more apparent with how little they stick in the boxes. Shit.So...just like original S.Soldiers from the movies?
>>11770832You obviously don't
>>11770796>TMNT from super7 was super fun and amazing.They were average, overpriced toys that showcased Super7's ability to color within the lines. Any time they diverted from what Playmates had laid down they fumbled and failed and showed time and time again that they struggle to make functioning toys. Let alone collectibles. Baffling.
>>11770702I do got two of these. Orange and Red. They're small enough to fit under Big Bird's arm, since he used to pick Elmo up all the time for hugs. Only thing I dislike is I can't get them to sit down due to no knees. Also, I might customize the orange one to be a generic monster.
What the fuck does this even mean?
>>11771042Large figures? Might be confusing given they already did Alien Queen unless they're giving her more stuff.
>>11771042It means $100+
>>11771042Shit just got real…
>>11771042It's a genuinely stupid naming convention
>>11771067You sound like a whiny baby
>>11771042I think this is gonna be like Haslab in some way
>>11771042When Ultraman fucks you.
>>11771081I'm not sure that's what it is, buuuuuut...if it was, I would be very, very interested in what they might do.And since it's the 40th anniversary, if they announced a crowdfund Queen Alien hive with a big egg sack diorama? I would back that shit so fast.
>>11771133What if they did the ACP? That’d be pretty cool
>>11771136Yooo, yeah...that'd be awesome! Or the drop ship. Or if they did a scale Hunter Killer from Terminator 2.
>>11771042Maybe dioramas have been selling well enough that they'll start making them for ultimate figures and packaging them together.
>>11771132Top kek
>>11771042It's a more defensible trademark than "Ultimate".
>>11771042>>11771067It's probably just because of the brand confusion between Ultimate and Super7’s Ultimates. Ultramate will be a unique registered trademark.>>11771198This guy gets it. I bet you've sat in meetings where the word "synergy" was used.
>>11771228I think the first time I encountered copyright defensibility was in the context of Transformers. You may not know this but transformers don't transform, the convert. Therefore the generic and indefensible term for the toys marketed under the "Transformers" brand is actually "converters".
This whole Ultramates thing is reminding me of McFarlane’s Elite Editions
>>11771228Except nobody ever thinks about Super7.
>>11771228>Introducing the new Super7 line... Super7 Ubermates!
>>11771042Sounds like a name for a brand of condoms.
>>11771141God fucking damn it I was 16 years into winning and NECA fucking 'THE GAME'd me.
someone red pill me on the xenos that are currently available>Black>Brown>Blue>RomulusI assume Black / Brown / Blue are older re-releases? How do they compare to the Romulus figure? Also guessing Black is the Alien design and Brown / Blue are from Aliens?
>>11771042NECA's answer to Mezco's One:12?
>>11771584Big Chap is the one from the first movie, and they just recently rereleased him.Brown and blue are the colors that the original Aliens (second movie) warrior was released in due to it looking those colors depending on the lighting in the scene. They look blueish in the hive shots, but look brown in the scene where they are crawling though the ceiling of the ops center. The Black Warrior is a new repaint of that mold. The main difference InDesign is that those xenos lack the dome over their head that Big Chap has.The Romulus Scorched Alien is the main xeno from that movie, and he's much bigger than most xenos. The XX121 xeno is a completely different one that is from a deleted scene from Romulus. In story, it is supposed to be the the exact same xeno as the one from the original movie, but they didn't make the costume prop to match the original perfectly, so it has some slight anatomical differences like the dome shape having a kind of bulbous front end and the head being skinnier than the big chap's.Here is an XX121 review that compares it with the Big Chap.https://youtu.be/bFAEkC05B6s
>>11771618The warrior is brown because the actual costume is brown accented. The blue is just the blue lighting from the movie.
>>11771703nta but I thought they had costumes in different colors for different scenes?
>>11771703>>11771791And round and round we go
DuckTales is up, looks like renders instead of actual prototypes?
Disney's Ducktales wave 1 is up for pre-order!
>>11771917Supposed to be out Q4 2026.
>>11771918
>>11771919
>>11771917>>11771918>>11771919>>11771922Any idea why they’re seemingly using renders for the preorder pics when we know they have prototypes? Odd choice for NECA, not sure I’ve ever seen them do this before. It’s giving Super7.
>>11771923Because those were super early prototypes still.
>>11771918>>11771919>>11771917this is really fucking goodI couldn't get happy enough!!!
>>11771928Well maybe wait to put up preorders until you have a solid prototype then? Again, feels like Super7 shenanigans.
>>11771791Some suits had blue accents on them. Even the queen herself had brownish accents on her
>>11771928When has that ever stopped them?
>>11771618You really know your xenos. Thanks.
>>11764968Post pantsu
>>11771061The only right answer
>>11771917>>11771918>>11771919>>11771922But they’re already obsolete since they’re not Ultramates
>>11771703I'm not getting into what the costume was actually painted, because the xenos in Aliens also had gold highlights painted on them to help the contours of the costume show up on screen in dark shots. This was shown in one of the docos in the old Alien Quadrilogy DVD box set.It's like how women would wear green lipstick and blue blush for black and white movies back in the day.
>>11771940Yeah this is odd, and the renders look really bad too. Wonder why the rush job?
>>11771917these aren't exclusive right? i don't want to use the neca store
>>11772035They're already up on BBTS and Nerdzoic and EE.
>>11772156Nice! That's an instapreorder for me if I can avoid the Neca store
>>11772223Whatever
>>11771618Thanks anon, appreciate it. They all look awesome actually hard to pick one...
>>11771918I'm glad that they sell the 3 of them as a pack. The promo pic made it look like they'd be sold as two packs and you'd have to get them all to complete the set.Launchpad and Gizmoduck are out of my budget but I'll pick up the other two.
>>11772238I think that was the initial plan, but as the world continues to crumble around us, they had to put the triplets by themselves. I think it works out better that way, but, yeah.
>>11772156How is Nerdzoic? Never bought from there but they have a bundle deal that looks good
>>11772260I like them, though I only buy when I plan on buying several things at once. Always been helpful with emails and stuff too.But everything ships out in a timely manner and was always well packed when I got it.
I hope the Ducktales line takes off. I will buy as many beagle boys as they can crank out.
>>11772238I have no interest in Ducktalrs but I may buy that Scrooge McDuck, he looks like a pimp
>>11772238>The promo pic made it look like they'd be sold as two packsit didn't make it look like that, it clearly says that in plain english in the photo you posted
>>11772368The world has changed drastically since they were shown
>>11772238The thing is, if you were going to buy the whole line you’d only have to buy 3 characters instead of the now 4…
>>11772238But who are they gonna pack webby with now? She is the only other character I need
>>11772528Yeeeeah, that's how inflation, war, tariffs etc fuck up the cost of everything
>>11771256
>>11772538Wow, nobody cares
>>11772533It’s not like all that happened since they showed them as two packs though.
>>11772576>It’s not like all that happened since they showed them as two packs though...have you kept your eyes closed over the last few months?
I just hope when NECA tackles Darkwing Duck they remember to give DW a decent “stilted/scowling” sculpt.
>>11771917This Launchpad is more akin to the Darkwing Duck character design than the one in Ducktales…
>>11772530Maybe Webby and Mrs. Beakley will come together. Or they could stick her with Bubba or something since he's smaller.
In your opinions, which is NECA better at? Non-Toons or Toons like Duck Tales or Sesame Street?
>>11772649That’s because NECA know that the only thing people really want is a good DW figure and the entire Fearsome Five so may as well hurry up with DT.
>>11772775>NECA>Knowing what people wantThey refuse to make popular/demanded figures, or do them wrong, because Randy doesn't like the characters. See them making purposely inaccurate AVP Predators, refusing to make Elmo, etc.
>>11772780Who the fuck doesn’t like Elmo?
>>11772784Randy, apparently. And NECAnon judging by his shitfits he throws every time someone mentions him.
>>11772780>>11772784>>11772787Damn, you really can't help yourself, can you? Stunningly stupid.
>>11772789Can't help myself doing what? Discussing NECA in the NECA general?
>>11772791Wow, still trolling over things you don't collect. Cool, cool.
>>11772791You aren't discussing anything.
>>11772791>DiscussingLooks more like you're starting up the same Elmo trolling that's gotten you banned repeatedly. Talking about off topic and unrelated individuals, spreading misinformation...
>>11772797How is mentioning Elmo (you know, the most popular Sesame Street Muppet) and NECA not having made him "trolling"?
>>11772801You already tried this earlier in the thread. You are soooo pathetic. Get something else to focus on, this is actually autistic of you.
>>11772807Tried what? Mentioning that it's weird that NECA isn't making a popular character? I think you are reading things into my posts that aren't there. Are you OK?
>>11772780Lauchpad ressembling the DW version does show that NECA wants to get to DW faster though.
>>11772813
I like Elmo's shitty gen x dad. Cracks me up every time I see him.
>>11772780Were the inaccurate AVP Preds deliberate? I'm more inclined to invoke Hanlon's Razor.
Any updates on the McDonalds figs? Looked pretty good and I was kinda looking forward to Ronald.
Speaking of the Muppets, how come NECA hasn't shown any of them off since the three they showed at ToyFare? Disney back out again?
>>11772920Probably because they haven't been to any toy cons since then. The signs at NYTF said Gonzo was scheduled for Q4 2026 and Miss Piggy wasn't due until next year. I don't remember if Mahna Mahna and the Sowths had a card saying when they're coming, and I can't see one in this pic.
>>11772927Never mind, I can see it behind them. Derp.Can't read it though.
>>11772927Ah, so they're still coming. Thanks for the clear up.
>>11772920SDCC is coming up. That's the big con that everyone shows things off at.
>>11771917>wave 1That's literally all the major characters from DuckTales. Who's left that's also toy-worthy? Magica?
>>11773234Magica. Flintheart Glumgold. Duckworth. Ms. Beakley and Webby. Ma Beagle and various Beagle boy 2 packs. Bubba. Look how neca treats animated tmnt characters. If people buy it, they aren't shy about making obscure characters.
>>11773239Well, if that's the case, then I swear to god the inevitable Darkwing Duck line better get the entire Fearsome Five. Some toy company needs to make all five of them already.
>>11773239I would get Magica. Do you think they'd do Donald?In my head, I'm completing Donald's Lucky Dime Caper
Tall guys
>>11773993Small guys
>>11773995New blue guy
>>11773997I kept this fella in the box until the music effect died. It lasted a good 8 years. Not bad.
>>11773997Is that the rerelease? It's already out?
>>11774498Yeah, just found it at my Target! It is the new one.
>>11771618I rewatched the films and ended up going with the brown warrior. Kind of amazed at how many xenos neca has made (I'm somewhat new to buying figures).
>>11777035NECA did modern takes on the Kenner alien hybrids, right? Like the gorilla xeno?
>>11777267From the Kenner line, they did Gorilla, Mantis, Scorpion, Rhino, Panther, Cougar, Snake, Queen Facehugger and if you really want to count it, the blue Big Chap repaint.I think that was all of the xenos from the Kenner line that NECA made. There were a few they never got around to, like Bull, King, Arachnid, Killer Crab, Wild Boar, and Flying Queen. That last one feels like the biggest omission. I wish they would finish them off, and maybe rerelease the first few they made like the Mantis and Gorilla.
>>11777295They also had the xeno based on the Kenner packaging art xeno.
>>11777295>>11777319Yeah looked them all up. They look good. Would it be out of line to say NECA is better at non-human figures? The movie TMNTs are 10/10, these look good, and even if sometimes there's a misprint on them, the Godzilla figures where fine too.
>>11777702>Would it be out of line to say NECA is better at non-human figures?In my personal opinion, that's not out of line. 99% of my NECA figures are non-human. That could just be my personal preference though. Even when they absolutely nail a human likeness, I still get a sense of uncanny valley.
Picked up that Universal exclusive Drac. Really, really impressive work with the colors. Definitely going to pick up the others in the line.
>>11771042UltraBreaka
>>11768453So are xenomorphs meant to be plantigrade or digitigrade?
>>11772813Anon he's retarded don't bother with him
>>11779210It's cute that you have to respond to yourself because your trolling failed
>>11779299I think you might be schizophrenic
>>11779326We know you don't know how 4chan works. Which is why it's obvious that proves you're samefagging. Retard.
>>11779326>he thinks that proves something
>>11779209It depends on the movie.Plantigrade in the first two movies, digitigrade in 3, Resurrection and the Scorched xeno in Romulus, though XX121 would have been plantigrade in the deleted scene. Deacon in Prometheus was plantigrade. Neomorphs and Protomorph in Covenant were digitigrade.AVP series I remember less well, but I'm pretty sure the Grid Alien in the first AVP was plantigrade so I guess the rest would have been too. Predalien was definitely digitigrade in the sequel, and if my memory serves me, the the rest of the xenos in it were plantigrade.
>>11779566Isolation went digigrade too
