Cool Movie Toys: Have yourself a Merry NECA Christmas

Anybody who has been to this site knows I’m a huge action figure geek and major fan of NECA Toys, mainly because, while they do their fare share of licenses of new films and TV shows, there’s a concerted effort to bring collectors and film fans action figures from classic horror films.

So, if you’re looking for a Christmas gift for the action figure collector and or film fan in your life, here are some shots of their most recent horror movie classic product, with a surprise or two thrown in for good measure.

Happy Holidays!
