NECA's 18" electronic Freddie Mercury(Legendary lead singer of Queen, R.I.P) cost me $32.44 delivered, and was quite frankly worth every cent.
and I'm sure most of you know how big an 18" figure is by now, but just because I took the image anyway...
NECA is hit or miss, and I generally like their work, but I don't think even the biggest McFarlane fanboy can doubt the fact that NECA nailed this one. They got Mercury in his trademark stage getup, and captured his facial likeness perfectly. The colors are bold and vibrant, and he stands out in your collection(eventhough he would anyway, since he is nearly 2 feet
ing tall). Freddie comes with a mic stand, and has 8 points of articulation(albeit none very useful except the neck and shoulders). He plays a medley of three hit Queen songs including "We Will Rock You", "Radio Ga-Ga" and "We Are The Champions." Sorry, no Bohemian Rhapsody... They are activated with a switch on his back that turns on and off a motion sensor.
I definately recommend it to anyone looking to build, or add to a music figure collection, because its one of the nicest music figures made to date.
