I'm not into that style at all, but somebody's been waiting 30 years for those I imagine.
Talking to the Super 7 shop folks, they might be doing an Alien "Big Chap" re-release at some point. That I will get.

Hey, look! It's the toy equivalent of lazy retro games!
Shit, they're doing an NES version in this line as well? I guess I shouldn't be suprised.
*sigh*...I was hoping to avoided these, but this pic has kinda converted me as well. They look a hell of a lot better than the mock-ups they released a while back. I guess I'll at least have to pick up a Jason, and I know my gf wants a Creature from the Black Lagoon.
My turn for a SDCC update. First, I got my Mighty Muggs ROM in the mail last week. As an old-school fan of the Marvel comic, I couldn't pass this up.

Also got my SDCC GI Joe Cobra Eel.

And finally, my gf ordered me this awesome hand-painted chair for Cobra Commander from a custom site as one of my birthday presents. :tu:

I love how the Kenner scale is too small for Pinhead to actually have any pins in his head.
I'm just going to leave this here.
Nice write-up. Glad you're getting some props on this trend you started. Seriously, you actually started a popular (albeit niche) trend! That shit is cool.
BTW, even with the code TRU code you PMed me, I'm not finding any Mego-style NES Jasons around me. Most of the TRUs around here have it listed that they won't be carrying it at all, which sucks.
So, if any if you kids run across one in the wild, please PM me. I'll cover your shipping and whatever. Hell, just grab it either way, if I dont have one already I'll buy it...otherwise, you can make a mint selling it on ebay. Request: if you find more than one please grab the one with the least-squashed mask. Thx.
NECA said it sholud be hitting the TRU website this weekend. So that's an option.
I'll keep an eye out.
Saw this for sale at my local collectible store today...it's MADNESS:

BTW, I FINALLY came across one of the Mego NES Jasons at my TRU today, but just my luck, it had a chunk of paint chipped on the nose of its mask, so after much agonizing, I decided to leave it. I'm sure more will come along. But after seeing it in person, I have to say that it's a really fun figure.
