Not since 1998 have we seen Leatherface treated so well.
To commemorate The Texas Chain Saw Massacre‘s 40th anniversary, NECA has unveiled the remarkable new 7″ scale ‘Ultimate Leatherface’ as he appeared in Tobe Hooper’s 1974 slasher.
NECA revealed the masterpiece at the ongoing New York Toy Fair. It comes rocking an all-new body featuring over 25 points of articulation, plus 2 equally gruesome interchangeable heads. Leatherface comes with chainsaw, knife, mallet, meat hook, cleaver, and a vinyl apron. Loaded with features, detail and articulation, and packaged in a Deluxe 40th Anniversary window box.
NECA’s ‘Ultimate Freddy’ is out now, which already leads to speculation that an ‘Ultimate Jason Voorhies’ is up next!
McFarlane Toys introduced us horror fans to Leatherface in both a bloody and regular variant edition as part of their inaugural Movie Maniacs line back in 1998. It was impossible to get back then because, not only was there no way to pre-order online, but the warehouse employees at all the toy stores were bribed to pull the toys by local comic shops. It sucked.
Anyways, fans now get what they deserve with this absolutely stunning new figure as shown below. If NECA can find a way to triple our shelf space, we’d buy that, too.
