TOY NEWS FOR 8/16/2013 - NECA - PACIFIC RIM - 18" KAIJU KNIFEHEAD COMING

UPDATE 8/21/2013 - NEW PROTOTYPE PICTURE!!!

NECA Pacific Rim 18" Kaiju Knifehead Figure

Unlike the 7" line, it looks like the 18" Knifehead will come with a pretty decent amount of articulation. Looking at this, I really do see why NECA went with such limited articulation on the 7" version because it does break up the figure's form and give it a more "toy-like" appearance with all those cuts and swivels.

But, even regardless of that, the figure still looks awesome and I've definitely getting one to go with my planned 18" Gypsy Danger purchase. It's like the days of the Shogun Warriors all over again! I love it!!

And, just like Gypsy Danger, Knifehead will feature LED lights, presumably in the eyes and mouth.

This image is all we have to go on at the moment, but it looks like the next 18" figure in NECA's Pacific Rim line will be the Kaiju Knifehead!

Pac Rim is doing very well for NECA, and if it continues to do so, I hope we see even more 18" and 7" figures. At the very least, I'd love an 18" Striker Eureka and a 7" Cherno Alpha.

It's a shame the movie didn't do better. It really deserved to reach a much wider audience...
