Ok, gentle suggestion to cool it. You've been posting a ton these last couple days and I think every single post has been to argue with someone. Yes, another member took a stupid pass at you but most of the people here aren't out to get you. Try taking a conversational tone instead of an argumentative one.

Everybody better brace yourselves... he's probably gonna go on another dozen post cyber bullying rampage.

*Leo656* · 07-30-2020, 01:40 PM

In the interest of compromise...

Perhaps NECA could have included a note, either on the back of the box or on a little slip of paper insert, explaining specifically that the head comes off and that's how you attach the bag.

Like yes, it's more common now, but as an older guy myself who pretty much skipped out on collecting much of anything for a decade, I can empathize that some people might not be up to speed on the current trends in action figures and their accessories. I'd probably figure it out pretty quick but it's kind of unfair to assume that of everyone. Some people don't know, y'know?

Obviously NECA did not foresee it becoming an issue, but that said, it probably wouldn't have taken anything extra to offer instructions. Better to spend two cents on ink than field phone calls from someone who accidentally broke their figures' accessory.

Just spitballing.

damn, awesome list!

~~AquaParade~~ · 07-30-2020, 04:21 PM

Never knew how much I wanted figures of the crooked ninja turtle gang.

*Powder* · 07-30-2020, 04:41 PM

Punk Frogs & Big Louie first & foremost! Bugman, Krangazoids, Lord Dregg, Kerma, these come to mind, too.

TurtlePower85 · 07-30-2020, 05:10 PM

Awwww man I forgot all about the krangazoids, nice call!

*MikeandRaph87* · 07-30-2020, 06:11 PM

I want to see some characters that were not figures. Its odd that some of the figures did not show up in any media while characters appeared in the cartoon, but not the toy line.

I really want a few of these to happen now that we got past the Turtles and Bebop and Rocksteady that were already done in Cowabunga classic form. I would not mind seeing characters from other iterations in a '87 cartoon look as well.
I really want four individual Punk Frogs made above anything else now that it is confirmed Rat King will be made.
Genghis Frog/Napoleon Bonafrog
Rasputin the Mad Frog/Attila the Frog
So I agree there.
Also Gronudchuck/Dirtbag, Scumbug/Antrax and Irma/Burne
and giant Chrome Dome!
I am all for Razhar and Tokka as well, but being included in the movie linie it might be awhile before they are produced again.
There are three of the Neutrinos and it is a two pack so it is tricky. Kala for sure, but maybe package her with The Grybyx. I am all for packaging them according to interaction, but Neca is not necessarily doing that. So how about with Lotus Blossom?
Similarly, I don't know if Captain Dredd is interesting enough to be made, but you might say that about some of my want list. Kerma/Monalisa
Dask/Zak
Dirk Savage/Mutagen Man
Rex-1/Lex
Beserko/Shreeka
Big Louie/Don Turtelli
Titanus/Tempestrag
Hans/Fitz
Giant Mutagen Monster
Perhaps Bugman is better paired with The Swatter, but what about Gadget Man instead?
Megavolt /Wesley Knight
Kranzoids!
I don't care for them, but I could see Dregg/ Carter actually happened after awhile.

Who is Randy, btw? Is he like the public relations person who answers the Neca e-mails.

Randy confirmed today that it?s still coming out in fall. Single pack with extra accessories.

I think these figs look great, but i think I'm done. They are just way too stuff and stuff breaks so easily. Shouldn't have to soak everything in hot water just to move joints slightly

Mine broke too. You look at it wrong and it breaks.

Chaotix12345 · 07-30-2020, 07:51 PM

I'd probably only consider Tokka and Rahzar for a future cartoon purchase. I love me some Wingnut and Screwloose, but the versions from the OT were essentially just the (rather unflattering) Playmates designs thrown into a script that called for any generic aliens. Now if NECA were to branch out to Tournament Fighters for their VG figures...THAT version I'd be interested in. (Along with Armaggon, PLZ.)

RicksNerdLife · 07-30-2020, 08:02 PM

Okay...FOR FUTURE REFERENCE:

DISCLAIMER: WHEN YOU GET YOUR CARTOON CASEY JONES, POP THE HEAD OFF TO GET THE BAG OVER THE SHOULDER. OTHERWISE, IT WILL RIP.

Can we pin this somewhere?

~~AquaParade~~ · 07-30-2020, 08:25 PM

My Neca movie Leonardo's scabbard snapped the other day. It came slightly bent and finally had enough. Hardly ever touch the thing.

Yeah, there's no doubt that Neca's quality is s***

xZAOx · 07-30-2020, 09:03 PM

Wanted to update that I did take a hair dryer to my Casey Jones (like I have many a neca figure). While it was good at loosening up the hips, both knees are still **** and refusing to articulate. They are seriously made out of some rubbery plastic that just won't move on mine. They still feel like they're going to to to rip. I'm wondering if they also got painted stuck or something.

I guess next step is to try letting it soak in hot water whenever I feel like messing with it again.

Rukitron · 07-31-2020, 01:30 AM

I some how missed the neca restock because I actually ran into a neca rep stocking stuff. They said at the other location the stuff got grabbed quickly. I hate how limited the supply is.

Just keep looking man. I got Metalhead by determination. Somebody tried hiding him but I just felt like I needed to keep looking. I finally dug him out and held onto him tight

djmajin · 07-31-2020, 07:15 PM

I got Slash and Leatherhead from collectorsdenuk and they are amazing... I wish these things were like general NECA releases and could just be bought easily
