Yes its been the dream of many a fan ever since the early days of movie maniacs and the good guys at NECA have been long persuing the rights to make Hanibal Lecter...
Everyone can now rejoyce and be happy to know that NECA have secured the rights to one of the licences that so many people have had in their top 5 wish lists for many many years and that has been discussed on many a forum too.
After consistantly getting a straight "NO" from the licencee for many years NECA were approached by the owners at the 05 Fall toyfair and were told their may be an opportunity were they interesed.
Yes was the resounding reply.
So now NECA have signed the rights to make product from the all time classic movie Silence of the Lambs.
First up will be the legendary Hanibal Lecter in Orange prison uniform with white straight jacket tied up.
He will also come with the trolly so you can strap him down and mask to stop him eatin your other figures.
It will have ankle and head articulation and a very early prototype was on display but there was no photoraphy allowed as it is still in the very early stages of production.
Its a very impressive piece and so many people will be happy they can finaly get thier hands on this figure and others from the movie.
The first Hanibal will be in the fifth series of NECA's Cult Classics range along with Medieval Ash from Army of Darkness and the Jigsaw Killer from the movie SAW along with his little puppet on the tricycle and another as yet undectermined figure round out the assortment.
NECA know this is a holy grail in respects of licences and im confident they will do it justice.
They will also release more Hanibal Lecter figures later on and other merchandise from the movie.
Joel from NECA said he would love to do a boxed set in of the classic scene in the Cell with a sound chip.
It is doubtful they will do a Clarice on her own thou and the licence is just for Silence of the Lambs it does not cover the other movies in the franchise.
Merry christmas pat.

OH MY ING GOD JESUS CHRIST NIPPLE . Not only a Lecter, but another dream figure in Jigsaw. McFarlane, it's all about NECA now. Only redeeming thing McF's doing lately is Napoleon Dynamite.

Most are saying it's Giles (Makes sense with Randy Giles) but others say it's Lindsey.
As i'm a bigger Angel fan i'd rather it be Lindsey.
