    You guys are probably aware of all those Tomb Raider, God of War, Prototype, and Resident Evil at your local comic stores/etc. but i just want to point out that i HATE THEM.

    http://www.bigbadtoystore.com/bbts/company.aspx?company=26&browse=1

    I hate them because they just aren't very good at making video game based action figures due to bad paint jobs and very limited articulation. Lara Croft looks like a whore, Kratos can't bend down, and the prototype guy wears lipstick. and most of the figures cost at least 13 bucks each. But I remember back during the Marvel Legend's Toybiz era, most of their figures were awesome with great design and full articulation at a price around 9 bucks.

    There. I hope u guys know what i mean, if not, ill go cry in my mommy's room for embarrasing myself.

      I like NECA because they make toys from most of the movies I like.

        Well Neca is a toy company that much more consered with how the figure looks more so than articulation. Marvel Legends appealed to both collectors and players, where as Neca figures are pretty much just collectors.

        Myself, I have a sort of love/hate thing for them right now.

        I love them cause they do make very good looking figures. I have a small collection of their figures of Nightmare before Christmas and Labyrinth. I find these figures to be very stunning in looks. Plus I got to get my hands on that Beetlejuice figure one of these days.

        But than I hate them, because they reissue the same figures too many damn times. One mintue Sally of NBC becomes a pretty hard to find figure that yours turly paid a good 50 bucks for on ebay. Than out of nowhere, that same figure is in a two pack with Jack. Speaking of Jack Skellington, his Neca figure was just amazing. But again, he cames as his own figure, than a 2 pack with Oogie Boogie, than a 2 pack with Sally, than a many faces of Jack Skelling box set, than in series six the same figure is repackaged with a new desk, :evil:. It's more than a collector such as myself can take. I was thinking about buying those TMNT figures, but I don't know, since I can either by all four by themselves or in a box set, black and white or just pure white, or colored. Geez, do we really need that?

          C'mon NECA isn't that bad. Which reminds me, I still want one of their new Jason Voorhees figures from the new movie. I love the new Jason.

            Well as I stated I do like Neca's work, I think they make top of the line figures.

            Sadly they re-release figures just a little too much for my taste. I know I can't be the only one who thinks that. :shock:

              I'm not mad about them either. They did do a very good job on the Somewhere in Time Eddie from Iron Maiden though, although I wish he had that bit more articulation. What I really really hate are pre-posed figures though.
