Yep same here with the $20 chucky/Tiffany one but I was able to get it for $12.99 when I showed the 3 other xa ones to the woman. I was also able to pick up Trick R' Treat Sam, the 8 inch clothes Michael Myers, Halloween 2 Michael Myers with the bad eye,and the Gremlins Winter 2pk. I'm glad I stopped by Target tonight. I usually always miss out.

Yeah only 1 of my Targets got the Chucky/Tiff 2 pack so far. Lil confused why they’re 20...can’t be the amount of plastic? Leatherfaces heavy ass is bigger than any of em... Are they? Ew. If they're going to charge almost what the two figures would have cost separately, then they might as well have just split them up.

Looks like I'm finally done with NECA..... Without F13, there isn't much left to keep my interest. It's not that they are bad by any stretch of the imagination. I've been a rather huge fan of their stuff for years upon years. It just seems kind of pointless until the F13 stuff gets cleared up. Really, it's their own damn fault that they didn't get out the figures everyone was calling for sooner...
It's kind of sad to see them going all-in on the turtles and not really being able to do much other horror stuff. I don't need 47 Halloween figures. I didn't even really ever go too deep on Nightmare on Elm Street. I suppose all this was inevitable when they put out their ultimate line and made it pretty much put the final touches on what has been an incredible run. Hopefully they have some big horror reveals for 2020 that includes some "out there" properties..... It looks like I can finally do some Hot Toys though.

Personally I’m stoked for the TMNT figs, and their Predator reveals for 2020 so far have been incredible (that 100th release may fight for my FotY)...but I can see the frustration when they’ve basically built their reputation as a whole on horror icons. The Ft13th rights are a mess all the way around. Total joke of a situation from a business stand point.

I'm pretty burnt out on the horror stuff from them, honestly. I need my Ultimate Pinhead but they're arguably the best toy makers on Earth at this scale and price point. I'm dying to see them be more diversified with their offerings. Their Nathan Drake is one of my favorite figures ever made. So I'd love to see more stuff from them along those lines, specifically the Last of Us in the next 6 months. Shredder, Rocksteady and Bebop have all been unreal and I'm super pumped for Casey Jones. I'm hoping for more movie sets too since I want Rahzar and Tokka and an Elias Casey.
I'm a casual horror collector, though. I have one Michael, one Freddy, and one Pennywise. I've never wanted multiples of these guys, more so just my favorite version of each. I'm still trying to decide which Godzilla I like the best, too. I only do Ripley and Arnold for Alien and Predator. So most of that stuff misses for me since they do so many of the monsters. Stuff like Halloween Laurie is right up my alley. I'm hoping they make Grace from Dark Fate, too. I'm a really big advocate for seeing more actual characters from them. I still would love to see them do Bill & Ted and Snake Plissken in traditional NECA form since we got them in the Barbie style. I went with Icon Heroes for Karate Kid for that exact reason.

I'm not a huge fan of the clothed stuff they do. I have some of the figures that we'll never get any other way like the Silent Night 1 & 2 shout factory exclusives, the Fog and Re-Animator but I really don't care too much for them. On one hand, I am super tempted to go after the clothed Laurie and Loomis 2-pack. On one hand, I think if I don't, it will sell well enough for them to release ultimate versions but then again, I don't wanna take a chance and miss out on them and never get them as ultimate. I have the old statue figure of Loomis from the Night he Came Home set and its great but an ultimate would for sure slay the clothed version.... plus, a young Laurie....really tempting...
I completely understand the situation with F13 and NOES but they could really branch out with some far out properties and they would still sell..... I wish they'd quit with the clothed stuff and just go straight for ultimate but Randy has said it's cheaper to do the clothed stuff.... I guess because the only tooling required is for the clothes and the heads/accessories.... Their TMNT stuff looks amazing but I just don't even wanna start on that stuff.....

100%. The cloth stuff could go away entirely and I wouldn't miss it.

Why don't y'all like the clothed stuff?

Why don't y'all like the clothed stuff? I don't care for the overall look of them. I prefer molded attires/outfits to cloth, and I also think they're too tall. The clothes are almost always too baggy and give the figure a cheap look imo. It makes it feel more doll than figure to me. They've made stuff I was dying for like Clark Griswold, Kevin McCallister and Johnny Lawrence all in the soft goods instead of molded and I've wished all of them were the 7" scale molded figures. The heads seem to be way less accurate too, imo. Not sure if that's due to the scale or how they're made. Personal preference but I think the 7" molded figures are the best figures you can buy and the cloth stuff is just great licenses but alright figures.

Picked up the Bob Ross figure at GameStop today. I watched his show when I was a kid, so I just had to get it, especially when you throw in the fact it was on sale.

I loved that show, Bob Ross was such a gentleman. I tried his painting technique and was surprised how good I got at it, takes quite a bit of practice but I loved it at one point. I must get my old paints out some day.

So have Bebop & Rocksteady pretty much run their course at this point with bone popping up in stores anymore, or the opposite where most people who have them got them online and they haven’t made it to stores much yet? I checked more or less my entire state (MA) on Popfindr daily and never once saw an inventory jump. Zeroes across the board.

Do we know if there will be anymore clothed original Halloween stuff coming out after the 3 figures from Halloween II? Would love to get those 3, but sort of hate that the Halloween II Myers figure has the holes and stuff in the jumpsuit so would love a Halloween I clothed Myers from Neca (since the 1:12th Collective is like 6 inches tall).

Rocksteady/Bebop and Krang/Shredder are coming as a sandwich series before the Casey Jones wave hits in the spring.
