I have a question I was hoping someone could help me out with. I'm failry new to collecting and I noticed that some of the Neca Ultimate figures have a plastic hang tab or a cardboard hang tab for the same figure (Nightmare On Elm Street Part 2 for example). I was wondering if one version is a variant, or more limited or what the reasoning is. Thanks!

All these recent posts have me excited!
I'm patiently waiting for my Puppet Master sets as well as Frankenstein which hopefully ships from Big Bad this week.
Can't wait for the wider release of Homelander and Starlight too.
And I had to grab that Wolfman as well!
NECA straight printing money these days.

Not sure about the tabs, but I really do hope they get rid of those hideous cardboard tabs.

Also on their latest Instagram post I commented that I want more clothed horror and they responded with the ๐ emoji so that has me hopeful

*Sigh*
I legitimately feel like I'm the only person on God's green earth who wants BTTF figures that aren't of Marty, Doc, and the Tannens.

Well, they're the most popular characters, hence why they get made first. Just like with wrestling figures, you'd always get the biggest stars, before lower card talents.

Outside of those three, my biggest wants are a Jennifer with the two actressesโ head sculpts and an armored up Strickland from the dystopian 1985. (And an Einstein with a basket to sleep in)

(And an Einstein with a basket to sleep in) Armored Strickland would be hilarious.
And I'm loving the idea of Jennifer with the swappable heads. That'd be perfect.
Still, my ultimate want for any BTTF figure would be Clara if for no other reason than her character had a huge influence on my life as a child and is a big reason why I wanted to go into teaching. Years before I had Xena or Buffy to look up to, I saw Clara Clayton as the biggest bada** woman ever. She wasn't the most beautiful woman in the world and she wasn't a big pile of muscles. She seemed completely accessible to me. She kicked butt with her brain and that just... mmm, yeah I need a Clara figure. I need a Clara figure and I need to somehow get a Delorean of my own and take it back to 3rd grade me to show off.

Sadly, there are no female characters coming.

I wish NECA would/could revisit Resident Evil.
Getting Ultimates of Leon, Claire, Jill, etc. would be so incredible.

Sadly, there are no female characters coming. Welp. Good thing I didn't get invested in this line. My Marty can go in the closet. I don't need to worry about these anymore if my collection will never be complete.

Has anyone seen the Puppet Master Double Packs at Target?
Also as unlikely as it probably is I would pay the cost of the figures plus shipping and some cash for your troubles if anyone can find either or both of the sets. My brothers birthday is coming up and this would be the perfect gift.

A-Train and Black Noir are the only non-TMNT reveals from todays panel that I need, I wish I liked Gargoyles cause they look great, but I never watched 1 episode as a kid.

A-Train and Black Noir are going to be great looking figures, I have no doubt. I am a huge fan of The Boys line!

I never watched it until I was working as a sports writer for the local paper back home (around 2008). I'd get home at 5 am and watch it before I went to sleep. Great show, and these figures look amazing. I'm just worried about Neca's rep for breakable parts. Those wings -- yikes!

I was at the Palisades Center Target and they had 3-4 Frankenstein figures so I picked on up.
