[Toy Fair ’12] NECA Announces Reese, ‘Aliens’ & Colonial Marines
In addition to making action figures based on Ridley Scott’s Prometheus, NECA is heading into James Cameron territory as they announced at Toy Fair rights to a slew of new sci-fi horror toys.
First up, we’ll finally see a “Kyle Reese” (played by Michael Biehn) action figure based on the 1984 The Terminator.
NECA has also announced a new Aliens “Warrior” featuring more articulation and removable limbs.
Lastly, the toy company will release a line based on the forthcoming video game “Aliens: Colonial Marines”. In development by Gearbox Software, it is to be published by Sega for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 3, Wii U and Xbox 360. The game is a first-person shooter based on the characters and creatures of the Alien franchise, particularly the film Aliens. It is slated for a fall 2012 release.
The Vice Press Home Video label is back, and we’ve learned that they’re joining forces with Paramount Home Entertainment to bring Alex Proyas’ classic The Crow back to VHS.
Featuring artwork by Matt Ferguson, and formatted by both Matt Ferguson and Florey, the upcoming VHS release from Vice Press Home Video comes in two editions.

In the 1994 movie starring the late Brandon Lee, Eric Draven’s fiancée is killed alongside Draven, setting the film’s revenge storyline into motion. It spawned a handful of sequels.
