TOYFARCE REVIEWS:
NECA’S TOONY TERRORS SERIES 4!
It's Wednesday. You know what that means… ToyFarce reviews!
This week, we’re looking at the 4th wave of Toony Terrors from NECA! It took me a while to get into those, but after I saw the first wave at my local Gamestop (RIP Gamestop, which are all gone in Northern Europe), I knew I had to pick them at some point. When series 4 was announced, I was super happy with the line-up.
Regan from the Exorcist, Beetlejuice from… Beetlejuice, Sam, the mascot from Trick ‘r treat, and Victor Crowley from Hatchet! Yes, please! Let’s dive into those individually
First off, the star of “The Exorcist”, Regan! Regan comes with an alternate head and her signature pea-soup-green vomit (Aaaaw, so cute!). The figure doesn’t have a lot of articulation (neck, arms and feet), but you don’t really get Toony Terrors figures for their articulations, now, do you? The cartoony likeness is great. To quote the Murderdolls, “Regan, it was love at first fright!”.
Beetlejuice (that’s it, we said it 3 times now!), from the classic Tim Burton movie of the same name, does not come with any accessories, has an awkward pose and can’t really do much…but it’s Beetlejuice, so he will just look awesome on a shelf. Sometimes, less is more?
Sam, the mascot from the cult classic horror anthology “Trick’r Treat” comes with an extra head, a lollypop and his bag of goodies (which might be human parts). The figure doesn’t need much to look great, and already looked cartoony to begin with, so it’s a win win for that one.
Victor Crowley, from the ‘Hatchet’ movies comes with…a hatchet! (SO META!). A perfect cartoony depiction of the monster from the movies, his head, arms and right hand can move, which is enough. Kane Hodder, who played Jason in 4 of the ‘Friday the 13th’ movies, played Victor Crowley in all 4 ‘Hatchet’ movies.
That is a wrap for NECA’s Toony Terrors series 4!

The 5th wave included 2 repaints (Mike Myers from the latest Halloween movies, and a bloody Ash Williams from Evil Dead), along with the Creep from Creepshow and Ghostface from Scream. I might only pick the 2 new figures and skip the repaints, because I don’t have much space left on the shelf, and shelf real estate is a very expensive business these days (See previous post!).
