REVIEW: NECA’S TOONY TERRORS, SERIES 1
… because nothing says ‘Cartoony’ like a child molester, a teenager murderer and a couple of child-eating dancing clowns!
Last year, in October, NECA started releasing the ‘Toony Terrors’, a new line of plastic figures representing all the horror icons, in a cartoony way. I didn’t pay much attention to them at first, I’ll admit that, as I saw them at Gamestop a few times and passed on them. Eventually, they grew on me, and as more waves were announced, I ended up getting the first few waves all at once. This is the review for the first wave.
Toony Terrors, series 1
The first wave includes most of the biggest horror icons, such as Jason Vorhees from the Friday, the 13th franchise, Freddy Krueger from the A Nightmare on Elm Street franchise, and 2 version of Pennywise the Clown, from It: The Tim Curry version and the Bill Skarsgård version.
Jason comes with his trusted machete. He looks like a bad guy from a Scooby Doo cartoon, which is great: It allows for display on your shelves next to other Hanna-Barbera figures!
Ki… ki… ki… ma… ma… ma…
Freddy is the only one that has a stand, and cannot stand on his own. His blades are super fragile, and already needed to be superglued once after he took a dive from a shelf… Be careful with those!
Something something… bitch !
The ‘Tim Curry’ Pennywise comes with an orange balloon, which can be put in his hand (in a tiny hole, that will leave you sweaty and miserable after you’ve tried to enter the balloon’s string in it, and the white plastic covering the metalic string just goes away as it enters… The people who know will know).
I'll drive you crazy and I'll kill you all!
The ‘recent’ Pennywise comes with a red balloon, along with a paper boat. The same boat that he used in the movie to trick Georgie to come into the sewers. The balloon can be put in his hand the same way as the other Pennywise (which is terrible).
Do you want a balloon too, Georgie?
The Toony Terrors are a pretty cool line. Series 2 and 3 are on their way, hopefully for more Spooktober reviews! If you’re a toy collector and a fan of horror, I don’t see any reason why you would not like those. They decorate a desk very nicely.
Bonus - A tale of 2 Pennywise (NECA’s first Pennywise from the movie + the Toony Terror one)
