Its all good........I've seen pics of the Freddie Mecury and John Lennon figure they plan to release and they both looked pretty perfect. They also plan on doing Kurt Cobain.
Zombie Flyboy does look good.....rumour has it they are gonna do Peter and Roger as well......
I think we should start a campaigning for an Ed figure!!!

NECA make some pretty amazing figures. I love the Resident Evil 4 ones myself...but the Dawn of the Dead ones are amazingly crafted too.

They can't stop at Shaun though. We need an Ed, a Zombie Ed, and a Zombie Philip at least.
And a Winchester Diorama too.

When I was a kid I dreamed of having action figures as cool as those. Now that I'm older and they do make figures like that, I buy like all of them, I guess I am making up for when I was a kid and having to play with those lame ass ones they made back in the 80s.
But I cant wait to buy them all!

It will inevitably lose (gain) something when it hits mass production, I didn't like the two-ups of the Kill Bill figures NECA did but saw them on shelves and changed my mind.

It's alright, aside from the bat (as already mentioned), the beard, and the oddly pixie-like trousers and shoes.
Nice job on the name badge though.

I like the looks of it except for the ridiculous cricket bat handle

It's very detailed and all, but it doesn't really look right somehow, and it looks too serious. I'll probably still get it though. The stand is ace.
And the handle...

The angle that the photos are taken at covers the corner where the red is.

I'm going to squirt whipped cream all over it, and then lick it off suggestively while I watch the movie in the dark.

The figurines are quite accurate but somehow seem to lack personality - or something.
The Pulp Fiction ones are hillarious!

Have any of you had a look at this new bigger
Shaun looks like a simple copy with a few quotes. Don't think i'll bother.

I'm sure they'll have both at the NECA booth at Comic-Con; I can post photos of final product if anyone's really on the fence.

That right there . . . is a slice of fried gold.

They ruined it with the Ed Zombie. It looks horribly out of place. I told myself I would buy an Ed figure, but that doesn't interest me one bit.

I don't see how you can say they ruined it since its a prototype and not the final product. Judge it when you see it.

The PS2 controller's a bit random if it's a Winchester set. Maybe Ed should have been holding the molotov. Love the detail though, Edgar's brother will be happy that his t-shirt design has made it to action figure format.
