Yes, Atkins is finally an action figure. Took you long enough, universe.

Working with Scream Factory, NECA has recently been able to make limited runs of action figures based on movies that have *never* gotten toys, which has to date resulted in the companies joining forces for Night of the Demons, Silent Night, Deadly Night and even Silent Night, Deadly Night 2 figures. Up next, a Tom Atkins figure from Night of the Creeps!

Yes, NECA and Scream Factory will be thrilling us with a special deluxe edition Blu-ray release of Fred Dekker’s Night of the Creeps, complete with a Ray Cameron action figure!

The 8″ scale, retro-style figure includes Cameron’s shotgun and a beer can.

This Exclusive Website-Only Deluxe Offer (Limited to 3,000, US & Canada only) includes:

  • The Collector’s Edition Blu-ray with slipcover
  • A rolled limited-edition 18” x 24” poster of a newly-designed illustration from Devon Whitehead.
  • A second slipcover featuring the Devon Whitehead art concept.

Scream Factory details the Blu-ray itself, “Extras and final specs are in progress and will be announced on a later date. All extras from the prior U.S. Blu-ray release will be ported over and new extras are underway. Director’s Cut of the film is a given and we are working towards also providing the theatrical cut of the film (which had a different ending) as well.”
