Toy Fair 2020- NECA- Geek & Metal Edition

In my last two Toy Fair posts (Toy Fair 2020- NECA Toys- Horror Edition, Part 1 and Toy Fair 2020- NECA Toys- Horror Edition, Part 2: Aliens, Predators, and Gremlins!), I focused on the horror related toy that NECA will be putting out. Now, it's time to turn the focus towards geek related figures, as well as those with a heavy dose of metal!!

First let's start with these cool as fuck Defenders of the Earth action figures. Do any of you remember this 80's 'toon, where Flash Gordon, Mandrake the Magician, the Phantom, and Lothar teamed up to battle the evil Ming the Merciless? I loved it as a kid. I have no fucking clue, if it would hold up today. But, as I said before the figures are really freaking sweet looking!

NECA have a shitload of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle figures coming out. Based on the 80's toon, video games, and live action flicks, these are totally awesome!!

Now, it is time to fucking rock! We will be getting figures from The Misfits, Iron Maiden (based on the classic album Powerslave), and, most pleasantly surprising, Stormtroopers of Death (S.O.D.)!! Fuck yeah!! These clothed figures rule!

Last time I bought you the first part of my look at NECA's upcoming horror toys displayed at this year's Toy Fair. Now, let's dive right into the second part of them!

As always, they have a whole bunch of Alien and Predator figures coming out. And, of course, they look cool as fucking hell!

The Alien/ Aliens figures:

Predator:

We will also be getting some new Gremlins 2: The New Batch figures.

And, speaking of Gremlins, they put up an awesome as hell, diorama, based on the bar scene from the first Joe Dante classic. You can also see the upcoming Ultimate Flasher, among the figures (directly below)!

Toy Fair 2020- NECA Toys- Horror Edition, Part 1

First off, sorry for the delay on posting anything Toy Fair 2020 related. While, it took place between February 22-25 (at the Jacob Javits Center in NYC), I had an accident and cut my middle finger, on my right hand, at the beginning of this month, making it difficult to write and edit pics. I am almost fully healed now, and ready to get back into the swing of things.

With that being said, let's start with what is always one of my favorite booths at the yearly event: NECA! As always, I love their horror action figures, so let's just dig right in!

There are two new Godzilla figures coming out. One based on Godzilla Vs. Biollante, the other on his look from Godzilla: Tokyo SOS.

We are also getting two clothed figures, Chief Brody and Quint, based on the classic Jaws! The likenesses of these two are on point!

On top of that, we are also getting clothed figures from Hatchet, Halloween, They Live, and Scream as well!

They will also continue with their fun Toon Terrors line. The figures will include characters from Beetlejuice, Hatchet (I never thought we would be getting a figure much less two from this franchise!), Trick R' Treat, and The Exorcist. Speaking of which. this Regan, with interchangeable puking head, fucking rules! 

Let's end this part with this creepy and cool Annabelle figure!
