I love that we're getting all these Conan figures. My Mezco King Conan is on its way to me. Got the other two already. Now this. I'm very happy. I hope it turns out well. Far less excited about the scale because Darkwolf is a really weird size but.. we'll see.

So that control art is actually a different Conan altogether, from a different company, right? Truly an embarrassment of riches.

I wish NECA would get the movie rights back and make some fully articulated movie figures that actually look like the movie characters and not bloated, shiny weirdos with buster swords. Also.. really want someone to make a Momoa-Conan. Gimme all the Conans.

I sorta wanted that Teegra figure as a generic "Frazetta Girl" to use with one:12 Conans.

I've kind of been low-key looking for someone to take that role. I briefly thought about buying a Phicen but got a little creeped out by their... "authenticity".

Skip Phicen. I have Sonja and Vampirella to go with Mezco Conan and movie Hellboy and those ladies are in an entirely different scale, too small for Mez.

If these Frazetta figures are leaning taller, definitely won’t look right with Phicen.

Yeah; that def isn't 1/12 scale proper. It might scale well with Executive Replica Red Sonya as that figure seems a bit big for 1/12 scale. I mean Conan is a big guy but he isn't just a monster. The Howard stories are always going out of their way to mention people bigger so at that weird 1/11 scale he is a bit of a misfit. I sorta wanted that Teegra figure as a generic "Frazetta Girl" to use with one:12 Conans. Now worried about the scale.

 

I saw on one of the sculptor's Instagram that the line is considered 1:10, so I guess that answers that.

Yeah...same conundrum I'm dealing with. And do I get this Conan and display it with the ER Red Sonja, or do I go with the Boss Fight version to pair with the Mezco Conan?

Man, I feel the same way. NECA would really knock this out of the park, and he'd scale perfectly with their DnD figures, which is the scale I collect. My whole fantasy figure collection is 1:10.

The Darkwolf ended up being a tad smaller than I had hoped for -  too short to fit in well on my 1/10 shelf,  but too tall to mix in with my 6 inch figures.      I already have Conan figures I like in both 1/10 and 1/12 so I'm probably out on this one - even though I concede it looks pretty nice.

Totally agree. I was definitely disappointed. It also looks like the Savage Crucible figures might be a bit smaller than the prototypes would lead us to believe, so the search for a good 1:10 fantasy line continues. Hopefully NECA will continue with their DnD figures.

Hopefully we'll get a 1:10 Conan someday (soon), as well as a really good Red Sonja. The LC Sonja just doesn't cut it for me.

Has there been any indication on an estimate release date for Conan?
