Ecstatic to FINALLY see that Hammer Dracula. I was a bit nervous since I thought maybe this could have been a monkey's paw situation where we ended up with a retro 8-inch one, but thankfully it is an Ultimate figure.

Thrilled beyond belief, he looks great. Hope to see more from this line. Van Helsing, Baron Frankenstein, and the Creature from Curse of Frankenstein are definite musts. Dracula variants from some the later movies would be cool too. Especially Scars Dracula with his burning sword and red lined cape.

Ultimate Vincent Price is also a completely out of left field choice that I am all for. Love that it's not a character he played or anything, it's just Vincent Price.

Vincent Price and Christopher Lee. What a time to be alive.

Pixel Dan's walkthrough video has Randy mentioning that we'll see more from Hammer by the end of the year, but likely not at NYCC quite yet.  Specifically mentions "another iconic actor" who you know has gotta be Cushing.

He also mentions that the Price figure has more swap-out pieces than are on display for various looks.

M3gan looks great and I'm happy they're not skimping on the accessories.

I have no idea why they are re-releasing two Ezio figures that admittedly look cool and are beautifully sculpted, but have garbage articulation in the upper body. They're not even that difficult to come by at decent prices to warrant another run.

That Vincent Price figure is fantastic!! I have wanted one for years but not a 12" one. His likeness is great. His legs do look a little long though.

I'm very glad Neca is rereleasing that blue Ezio, I always wanted it but couldn't find it at a decent price in my country.

M3gan looks neat.

Those Krampus figures look amazing. In the Pixel Dan walkthrough, Randy mentioned those were the final size, and that the clown-apiller was a final production sample, saying that they've been in the works for a while. I assume it was an approval process that slowed them down, but should be out before Christmas 2024, before the movie's next big anniversary.

Vincent Price and the Lee Dracula are instant purchases, and I also need a new Edward Scissorhands to go with the older Price head displayed.

What scale are the Don Post kids costumes? Those are too cool. 

I think they are MEGO same as Halloween 3 kids.

The Feral Predator from Prey is up on Target's site for order.

@cmoney THANK YOU! I'm excited to get something new from this line after what feels like forever.

Watched the toyfair vids, doesn't look like they have much of anything happening for predator, just feral variants. Really disappointed 

Pretty sure they confirmed they were doing the Native American chick too.  But I'm fine with a Feral variant as well.  I honestly think the IP might be under some Disney squeeze?  There's not really anyone else doing Predator or Alien...outside of, what, Mezco? 

Flippin' finally, some "confirmation" that they're not done with The Thing.  If the timestamp doesn't work on this, skip ahead to about the 2:40 mark when they get to the latest MacReady figure:

Has anyone ever had luck with getting one of the Target toy coupons to work on a NECA product? It's always such a bummer whenever I try to use one on something either in store or online and it doesn't allow it. I've got my eye on many NECA things right now, but I can never use the coupon on it. I'm sure NECA falls under something else- entertainment, adult collector, etc- and not "toy", per se, but it's always odd to me that McFarlane things are always part of the promotion. Sure, those are arguably more "all-ages", but they're certainly aimed at and enjoyed by adults just as much, if not moreso, than kids.

I tried it on one and it wouldn't go through, but the cashier manually overrode the price without me saying a word. They are exempt, but you may luck out with an employee.

It has to do with how the products are classified in their system. McFarlane's stuff is classified as toys, comes in through normal store stock, and is mixed in the toy section. NECA is a vendor managed brand that has a separate inventory classification. It's why they used to have that "fan ambassador" policy where they wanted people to neaten up the NECA section and provide photos, and would do giveaways for those people.
