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!”.
“What a wonderful day for an exorcism!”
“BLEUAAARGH!”
“Your mother sucks c***s in hell!!”
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?
“I’m the ghost with the most!”
“IT’S SHOWTIME!”
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.
“…” (he doesn’t talk in the movie)
Unmasked head
So cute!
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.
“When the boogeyman goes to sleep, he checks the closet for Victor Crowley”
“GET OUT OF MY SWAMP!”
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!).
Do you like the Toony Terrors figures? Are you planning to get them? Let us know in the comments!

REVIEW: NECA TOONY TERRORS SERIES 3 + CHUCKY AND HIS BRIDE!
With the Toony Terrors series 4 wave starting to pop up in some shops, it was time to review series 3 (which Santa Claus brought me this year, thank you Santa!). Series 3 had Nosferatu from the movie “Nosferatu”, The Nun from the movie…”The Nun” and Ash from the Evil Dead movie franchise.

NECA TOONY TERRORS SERIES 3 + CHUCKY AND HIS BRIDE!
With the Toony Terrors series 4 wave starting to pop up in some shops, it was time to review series 3 (which Santa Claus brought me this year, thank you Santa!). Series 3 had Nosferatu from the movie “Nosferatu”, The Nun from the movie…”The Nun” and Ash from the Evil Dead movie franchise.
Series 2… meet Series 3!
Wait a minute…
…
“Something’s fucky.”
Yay! My first misprint! I feel so special! Either that or Nosferatu had a sex change and has become a nun…
Anyway… let’s open them!
Ash comes with his trusted “boomstick”, that can be held in his hand, or on his back. He also comes with his chainsaw hand, which he seems very proud to show off…
“Have you seen my chainsaw hand? Look at it!”
The Nun is stuck in a running pose, which kinda makes her look “Scooby-doo”-esque. I can hear the cartoon running sound when i look at her (what did they make that sound with, anyway?)
She has a very detailed paint job and looks just as creepy as in the movie.
“You failed. Just as you have failed everyone in your life.”
Nosferatu (or Petyr, from “What We Do In The Shadows”) has the most articulations of that wave, with articulations on his arms, elbows and wrists. He comes with a pet rat.
“Hi…”
*classic pose intensifies*
Series 3 only had 3 figures, but there was also a ‘special’ set that came out, a two-pack of Chucky and Tiffany, from “The Bride of Chucky”.
Not sure why this one came out on his own, rather than being part of Series 2 or 3, but there it is!
The 2 figures are quite small, so it make sense they came out as a two-pack. Chucky comes with a knife (that can be removed), and Tiffany comes with a cigarette in her hand (that cannot be removed).
“Barbie, eat your heart out!”
This is also the first actual couple in the NECA Toony Terrors line!
“I wouldn't marry you if you had the body of G.I. Joe!”
“Hey, Raggedy Anne, you looked in the mirror lately? Now's not the time to get picky!”
Well, “couple” might be a strong word…
That’s it! That was the last review of 2020! ToyFarce would like to thank you all for all the support in 2020, and we’ll try to bring you more reviews in 2021!

REVIEW: NECA’S TOONY TERRORS, SERIES 2
More cartoony versions of our favorite killers!

REVIEW: NECA’S TOONY TERRORS, SERIES 2
More cartoony versions of our favorite killers!
Okay, that first wave was really fun, so I picked some more. Here is the second wave in their glorious packaging! The amazing part about this line is that, when you look at them in their packaging, or if you don’t put their weapons in their hands, it looks like they’re all dancing to their favorite song in a nightclub!
Pinhead doing some sort of variation of the macarena…
Leatherface just doing a silly dance…
And Michael Myers popped his collar up and enjoys some nice techno beats, fist pumping.
Toony Terror Pinhead looks pretty much the same as normal version pinhead, except he does not have nails planted in his head (probably to keep the cartoon aesthetic rather simple). He comes with the movie’s Pandora’s Box (or Lament Configuration), which has also been stripped to its bare minimum to look cartoony.
We have such sights to show you.
Michael Myers (no relation to the ‘Wayne’s World’ and ‘Austin Powers’ actor Mike Myers) from the Halloween franchise is pretty simple as well, but that’s how he always looked. He comes with a big knife and a spooky carved pumpkin.
Purely and simply…evil.
Last but not least, Leatherface, that abonimable deranged monster from the Texas Chainsaw Massacre, happens to be the most ‘cartoony’ from that wave. He looks right out of a Nickelodeon or Cartoon Network cartoon. He comes with his trusted chainsaw (duh).
RRAAAAARGH! (actual quote from the movie)
NECA spoiled us with another fun wave of Toony Terrors and I cannot wait to get the following ones. They are silly, yet still represent our favorite horror icons.
Bonus: Here’s a shot of the first 2 waves together!
Now, back to the nightclub…

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!

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)
