NYTF08: NECA
Submitted by JoshB on 24 February, 2008 - 10:45.
NECA wins points for having the first action figure with a head in mid-explosion. Holy crap, I hope this gets into production.
The following figures are all from Gears of War - the mockups are larger than life, the small black versions will be production size.
A great scene from the Exorcist
David Bowie in Legend
Conan
Aliens VS Predator
Shaw Brothers action figures
Princess Bride
They had some sweet looking Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles figures - these appear inspired by the original Eastman and Laird comics.

A LIU-CHIA HUI ACTION FIGURE!!!???!!!
...
Okay, I just came to...
Why haven't I been informed of this until now!? Well, whatever--the important thing is that I have a chance to own an action figure of Master Killer...and that's all that matters. NECA, you're my heroes!!
If these do well, I pray we get some more Shaw Bros classics...the Five Venoms are a must, Yue Wong from Dirty Ho, no doubt, Lieh Lo as Pai Mei--the Fist of the White Lotus, even Sam Seed and a young Jackie Chan as Wong Fei-Hung! Oh, the mind reels!
Ah... And of course, I'd be amiss if I didn't mention the new TMNT figures and how fantastic they look! That comic book style "panel lining" is a little weird, but whatever, I still kinda need 'em!
