I dearly hope this isn't a NECA Store exclusive.

I would love this!

So glad we're getting more NECA monsters. I'd like a Strange Frank and an A&C Wolf Man and Dracula as well... since we're working on expanding the line. Still want Ygor and Renfield.

How about another TCWAU? The only one over 4" tall, that I remember, was the Sideshow 12".

Doh!

I hope that they continue to make B&W versions. Otherwise, I'm out.

I jumped out my seat when I saw this! Its like NECA heard me whining and said "ok ok, here ya go, ya big baby..." EXACTLY what I wanted to see.

I wonder if there's some kind of approval system with Universal and they maybe just didn't approve anything in time for SDCC therefore weren't allowed to show a new figure. These licensing execs often take their sweet time.

Apparently NOT a neca store exclusive

That's amazing. Just when they make it seem like it's over, they pull this. Perhaps losing the Turtles changed direction a little.

Thats most likely why.

I find it kind of cool that each NECA Frank has a different skin tone. The first was yellowish, Bride version was more gray (probably from the burning windmill) and the new Son Of is greenish (maybe to match the color test footage?). But I like to think the intention was to make it seem like his skin has been continually rotting.
