@detrimental-fig Thank you. Yep, that's her with a different head. I forgot that figure had the jacket as an option.

Neca has shown off a figure and accessory set for Alien Romulus:

Alien: Romulus Bundle from NECA - The Toyark - News

Everything looks really good, but that bundle pricing makes it an easy pass. I'll wait and just get the Xenomorph on it's own. I hope this is just the beginning of a whole line for this movie. That said, with Prey still only having it's Predator made into a figure, I'm doing my best to keep my expectations low.

Out of curiosity, does anyone recognize the figure pictured with the new facehugger on it?

 

Thanks for the link, I just grabbed it! I'm always excited for more Alien product.

The Romulus Xeno looks good....I'll likely pick that one up at some point. Fingers crossed the movie is good!

Blaine said in one of the videos that this was the Pee Wee's Playhouse license and that they didn't have the movie license and that some friends might be joining Pee Wee.  I wonder if they will do all of the Playhouse residents as pack-ins?  Maybe an accessory set?  Some of the larger ones could even come single packed or double-packed (Conky and Magic Screen could come together).

Dare I even hope that this could be successful enough that we might get a diorama/playset of the Playhouse similar to the one that came out in the 80s?  The Beetlejuice diorama they are coming out with makes me think that they would do a fantastic job on the Playhouse.  The Playhouse itself is as much a character as anything that resides within.

I could see an accessory pack with Chairry, Dog Chair, Globey, the Puppet Band, and the aquarium with talking fish.

Jambi, Randy, The Dino Family, Billy Baloney, and I'm sure tons I have forgotten could be pack-ins with any human characters they wanted to make.

Now I have the urge to watch the show again so I can keep making my wishlist and probably add to future disappointment.

I would have preferred the line to focus on Big Adventure, in which case, the only accessory I’d want is the bike. 

If it’s Playhouse, I don’t think I could go all in on every member of the playhouse. Perhaps some of the smaller ones, but it would just take up too much room.

Chairry by herself would take up so much room in a package. At least Conky could justify being its own figure. I’d want Jambi, Magic Screen, Globey, maybe Randy.

Human cast is another story, and I don’t think they would sell as 7” figures. Maybe Captain Carl, Rita the Mail Lady, Cowboy Curtis, King of Cartoons. But they’d be better in my collection of Super7 ReActions.

@nightwolf Hope there are more. Pee Wee with Pterri, King of Cartoons with Jombi, Konky with Randy, Chairy with Billy Baloney, Ms Yvonne with Globey, Cowboy Curtis with the Jazz Cats, Capt Carl with Magic Screen.

Found this first look at the new Toy Collector mag over on BBTS, which has the first series of "What if?" costume kids from NECA:

Yeah, those tickle me. They're not as "iconic" feeling (in a sense) as your generic monster costumes, but I still love how those look.  I'm still in on the line.

Agreed on the new ones quite having the iconic look. I'll pick and choose with this line. I have a halloween display in mind so just a handful will work for me. I do hope to find the wave 1 Gillmam at some point. Probably Gremlins, Xeno and Nosferatu?

I may get that Nosferatu, but I really like how Captain Spaulding came out.  I love that they are expanding the licenses for this line.  I was all in when it was one wave, but I'm much happier to know I can pick and choose for a trick or treating display.

Just watched Darkman for the first time in years.  I'd love for NECA to make a figure of him.  Would fit right in with their Universal Monsters.

The 7" line to fit in with their Elvira, Universal Monsters and Hammer horror lines I want is What We do in the Shadows!
