NECA Friday the 13th Part 2 Jason


Today I picked up Friday the 13th part 2 Jason from my local shop (Zonkey Toys). I went there to get the NECA G62 and got this Jason as well.

 

I’m a big fan of the first 3 films in the Friday the 13th series. While I love hockey mask Jason, I also really loved his look from the 2nd film, with the sack around his head. It just looks very creepy.
 

 
This Jason comes with an unmasked head, a knife, a curved machete, a spear, a pitchfork, a pick axe, his mother’s decapitated, shriveled head, and a campfire with flame.
 

 
 
This one doesn’t come with any alternate hands, though the hands he does have hold his weapons quite well, so that’s always good.
 
 
It sports standard NECA joints and articulation. Not double jointed but decent enough. He can move his head, shoulders, elbows, hands, waist, thighs, knees and slight ankle rocker. There were no overly loose joints on mine, so that’s great.
 
 

 
The paint applications and details are great, capturing the creepy look of his masked face, the lower eye placement of his unmasked face, to the dirty old flannel shirt and overalls.
 
 
It’s another solid Jason release, a must have for fans (especially if you like the part 2 Jason). Another great horror figure!

S.H. MonsterArts Godzilla Minus One

Right before the opening of the new Toho film Godzilla Minus One in the US, I received the figure from Bandai Tamashii Nations from that film. It was officially released last weekend, and about a day before that, some photos were popping up online of the final product, appearing with a very dark and bad paint job. Drama rose up in one of the kaiju figure groups I'm a part of, with one idiot in particular proclaiming that the S.H. MonsterArts line was done, despite having not gotten the actual figure in hand before he could judge for himself. After multiple posts trashing the figure and stating that Bandai was dead, he received the figure and then gave it a good rating (8 out of 10), making himself look like a damn fool in the process. I admit that those initial photos had me worried, but I decided to wait until I saw some YouTube reviews to see how it actually turned out to make my judgement (I pre-ordered it from a site where you don't pay for it until it's actually in sto

S.H. MonsterArts King Kong '21

The next May pre-order to arrive is S.H. MonsterArts King Kong from the Godzilla vs. Kong film. I was psyched to get a highly articulated Kong from Tamashii Nations, and the great ape is finally here. Kong is a little shorter than Godzilla (just like in the film). The details of the sculpt are all well done. Tamashii Nations did a good job capturing his look well, from his hair covered body to a few scars on his chest. His faces, including his eyes and teeth on the open mouth head, as well as his axe, are all well painted. The only issue is that they seemed to have gone with a glossy finish, so he seems too shiny, especially on his face and chest. A duller matte shade would've suited him better. At least it would've kept him from looking like he over-moisturized. As for his articulation, he's quite flexible. His head is on a ball joint, ball jointed neck as well, ball jointed shoulders and thighs, upper arm cut, single jointed elbows and knees that go in further than 90 deg

S.H. MonsterArts Godzilla 1991 Shinjuku Decisive Battle version

The latest Godzilla figure I pre-ordered from the S.H. MonsterArts line has arrived. It is the 1991 Shinjuku Decisive Battle version, to go along with the Mecha King Ghidorah release from earlier this year. While the suit is almost the same as the one used in 1989's Godzilla vs. Biollante, they made some slight adjustments. Compared to the BioGoji figure, this one is much thicker, therefore, he does look different from that other release. His sculpt is the classic 90's era Heisei look, with small head, thick thighs, large dorsal spines and a long tail. Like all the other Godzilla suits of that decade, he has a cat-like face, both cute and menacing. While the King of the Monsters has had multiple looks throughout his 50+ years, it's the Heisei era that seems the most iconic. Artwork, toys, comics, etc, have all utilized this particular design. Similar to the 89 suit, this 91 figure has a small set of dorsal spines, followed by a much larger one, and then gradually getting sm
