do you like wrestling and star wars by any chance? lolz
Well played fosing. If he starts saying he's smarter than 98% of the members on this forum, we'll know for sure. 
Nice to see them jump-starting this license in 1/6! I'm hoping like the rest of you that this just means more horror stuff to come. Leatherface is a huge hole in my collection.
I'm very happy with the pt.3 and pt.4 Jasons I already have, but would love to see this turn out well and hopefully can scoop some parts to use as additions. I guess there's little hope for a Ms. Voorhees shrine since this is a pt. 3 fig, but that's something I'd love to get if it were offered separately like BJ's gravestone.
Hard to tell from the two shots we got so far, and while it looks pretty promising, I think they didn't get his proportions right. He looks more slender/athletic than big and bruting (more like the PF)
I think it could be just as tricky to capture the likeness of the make-up or masks as it is to capture regular human likeness. We've seen plenty of Myers or Jason masks, Freddy or Jason sculpts (and most recently Pinhead) and doesn't look quite right.
But SS does seem to have better success with aliens, so maybe this will fall into that category.
REALLY surprised to hear a comment like that coming for you

So pleased I didn't rush into buying the ridiculously over-priced customs now

Randy Falk of NECA said they couldn't come to an agreement with Akkad on the license. Supposedly he is very difficult to work with. Hopefully SS or Threezero have better luck.

As much as I want a Myers figure, there's no way I would pay SSC $220 + for a figure. Even that is pushing it as far as price.
Myers doesn't need alot of accessories, they will still put him over $250.

A knife and a sheet and Michael is done. The sculpt would have to be crucial.

I want to say it has something to do with the son taking over the franchise because there was a bunch of Halloween merchandise 10 years ago when his father was still alive.
agreed about the sculpt. That's what has to be stellar. A pumpkin would be great but watch SSC sell it separately like BGs tombstone.

Yeah it does. I still have their "The Night He Came Home" box set.
Would love some 1:6 figures though, but if not I'll live with my custom.

If SS were to do some sort of diorama for Myers, do the front porch of the Myers house or something. That would be worth $150. But of course they'd charge $250. Lol

Yeah, of all the Jason figures I've seen, only Beto has gotten the mask dead on, IMO.
I'm pretty much out of 1:6, at the moment, but this is looking good to me, so far, and as long as the mask is close, it'll be one of the few figures I get. Don't think we'll see Star Wars level pricing on this one, either, since the license can't have been anywhere in the same neighbourhood (of course it's a way smaller market, too, so maybe I'm wrong). As long as it's not too crazy and the figure is good, I'll be down for it.
I don't wanna get into a customs vs mass produced argument, but comments like that really come across as ignorant./enough saidREALLY surprised to hear a comment like that coming for you
I thought this release might get your attention! Yea, you'd think it wouldn't go for Luke prices as SS blames the high price of the license, but like you said this is way more niche plus they'll have to develop a new specific body with probably no reuse quality.... Ash is already $240.... who knows, but we'll see soon.
I'd normally call it ignorant too if it was just coming from one of the guys in the Customs Haters Crew, but it's just plain out ridiculously odd coming from someone who avidly supports customs, has bought a Rainman OOAK, single handedly set the price bar for the Adam Gu... aww forget it...

Just rewatched F13th Part III in anticipation for this and WOW. Is that movie bad. Acting is soo bad. Jason was a beast, but man that has to be one of the worse in the series.
