HeroClix Batman and Catwoman with Bat Signal Redemption

I haven’t dipped my toes into HeroClix, but keep getting tempted when I think about some of the giant figures I have. My DC Universe Classics Giganta could use some Heroclix to beat up on. Bats and Catwoman here are a special offer figure. Since they’ll be limited in quantity, you’ll want to secure yours soon after the offer goes live at 1PM EST today.

Seeking Redemption

With The Brave and The Bold release right around the corner, I wanted to let you know how we are going to handle the mail away redemption for the Batman and Catwoman brick figure.

Tomorrow at about 1:00 pm EST well kick live  www.wizkidsgames.com/buyitbythebrick and you’ll find the forms you’ll need to complete the redemption process.

The process is very similar to previous redemptions except for the following:

  1. The redemption form will be hosted on our website
  2. We’ve made the redemption form an editable PDF.  No more messy handwriting!
  3. All redemption forms & payments will be mailed to Alliance games in Fort Wayne, Indiana U.S.A. (keep reading)
  4. European redemptions will be shipped from a UK distribution center
  5. All other territories will be shipped out of the US distribution center
  6. International payment options will be honored here in the U.S.

In order to ensure that international redemptions are on a level playing field with domestic orders, we’ll reserve a percentage of the brick figures for international redemptions only.  We’ll inventory balance as necessary and make sure all territories are treated in a fair manner.

In the event that we run out of numbered brick figures before the program expiration (July 16, 2010), we’ll announce the sell out and make a, time limited, last call for The Brave and The Bold redemptions.  All redemptions gathered during the “last call period” will be processed and we’ll reprint unnumbered versions of the Brick figures.

NECA Nightmare on Elm Street Freddy Krueger Press Pics

Wow, the original Nightmare on Elm Street movie came out 26 years ago? I don’t know what Robert Englund was known for before that, but he was forever Freddy Krueger afterwards – six movies and a TV series as the character will do that.

Jackie Earle Haley was awesome as Rorschach, but the trailers for this movie are a little distracting with his Rorschach voice coming out of Freddy Krueger.

Freddy’s Back

NECA reveals action figures from the new A Nightmare on Elm Street!

Twenty-six years after the original A Nightmare on Elm Street kept a whole generation awake at night, the franchise that gave us one of horror’s most memorable baddies, Freddy Krueger, is getting a reboot courtesy of director Samuel Bayer and New Line Cinema. Taking on the iconic Freddy role is actor Jackie Earle Haley, perhaps best known as Rorschach from The Watchmen. To honor the release of the film and the rebirth of this cultural icon, NECA is proud to unveil our brand new A Nightmare on Elm Street figures!

Where else to start but with Freddy himself? Our run of figures features two different versions of the Freddy Kruger character: One before he is burned and one after. Pre-fire Fred Krueger comes with an interchangeable right hand, and razor-glove Freddy comes with that famous weapon and two interchangeable heads. Each figure stands 6 3/4″ tall and is fully poseable.

A Nightmare on Elm Street figures are in stores now and also featured on our Amazon storefront.

NECA Announces Resident Evil Archives Series 2

I’m all for zombie toys, but I’d really like to see some new super-poseable figures for video game franchises.

The Roots of Evil

Resident Evil Archives Makes the Classics New Again!

Series 2 features Jill Valentine, Hunter and a Labcoat Zombie!

Capcom’s original Resident Evil might be the greatest horror game of all time. It’s a cultural milestone — the one that started it all. In June 2009, Resident Evil Archives: Resident Evil was released on Nintendo Wii, and as more landmark RE titles are set for release this Fall, NECA is proud to present this collection of classic characters with improved decoration detail in Resident Evil Archives Series 2!

Jill Valentine is among the most memorable videogame heroines, and she appears in two different versions in Series 2, along with a vicious mutant Hunter and — because you always need one — a zombie in a labcoat (or, as we like to call him, Labcoat Zombie! These icons all come with multiple accessories and articulation and deluxue packaging with a display stand, and are on a zombie-blasting/brain-eating 7″ scale

Resident Evil Archives Series 2 is available for preorders now. They’ll be hitting shelves in May and of course will be featured on our Amazon storefront.

NECA Terminator 2 Series 3 T-1000 and T-800 Press Pics

The 2-ups of the Terminator 2 Series 3 figures at Toy Fair looked amazing. I missed on some of the earlier figures and will definitely want to pick these up.

Have You Seen These Figures?

New Cult Classics Series Features First-Ever T-1000!

Of all the cops in the world, he’s probably the one you want to run into at the mall the least. So imagine how it must have been for young John Connor when the liquid mercury-based T-1000 started chasing him down in Terminator 2: Judgment Day. Good thing he had Schwarzenegger on his side.

Our new Cult Classics: Terminator 2 series 3 boasts four figures total: two of Arnold in perhaps his most classic role as the protector T-800 and two of the villainous and more advanced T-1000 (played in the movie by Robert Patrick). Here’s the rundown by the numbers:

T-800 Battle Across Time

This brand new version of the T-800 comes courtesy of the popular T2-3D movie attraction at Universal Studios theme parks. This figure is fully poseable and comes with a shotgun and plasma rifle. Articulation includes ball-jointed neck, shoulders, elbows, wrists, and swivel waist.

T-800 Steel Mill

It’s the last scene of the movie and everyone’s a little worse for the wear. This T-800 has been back and forth fighting the T-1000 all day, and by the time they get to the Steel Mill, it shows. Gonna need some more skin there, buddy. Figure comes with a pistol and grenade launcher, and articulation including a ball-jointed neck, shoulders, elbows, wrists, and swivel waist.

T-1000 Galleria

Have we mentioned this is the first time the T-1000 has appeared in a series? Well, here he is as he first appears in his police uniform pursuing John Connor in the shopping mall. He boasts a whopping five interchangeable hands and a pistol. Also the heads, hands, and forearms can be interchanged between this figure and the battle damaged Pescadero version to create your own unique T-1000.

T-1000 Pescadero

This battle damaged T-1000 shows the damage he endures when he first meets up with the T-800 in the Pescadero Hospital. The highly detailed figure features bullet wounds, hook arms, and two different heads, an exploded head after taking a shotgun blast, and a split head as he forms back together. Also the heads, hands, and forearms can be interchanged between this figure and the less blown-to-bits Galleria T-1000 to create your own unique version.

Cult Classics: Terminator 2 series 3 is available for preorders now. They’ll be hitting shelves in May and of course will be featured on our Amazon storefront.
