‘Gremlins 2: The New Batch’ Bat And Mohawk Figures Revealed #SDCC
I remember when Gremlins 2: The New Batch came out on VHS. My parents rented it for me on a bright Saturday morning. I popped in Gremlins, watched it, took it out after it was finished rewinding, popped in Gremlins 2, watched it, took it out after it was finished rewinding, and then popped Gremlins back in. I did this for the entirety of my Saturday. They say time enjoyed is never time wasted and you better damn well believe that I still remember that day with fondness.
One of my favorite parts of Gremlins 2 was the brand new variety of Gremlins throughout the film. And now NECA has unveiled some awesome upcoming figures from the film at this year’s San Diego Comic Con, including the Bat Gremlin and Mohawk!

We have an exclusive first look at A Man in the Woods With an Axe, a blood-soaked, genre-twisting homage to 1980s slasher films.
Spanning four decades, A Man in the Woods With an Axe begins in the summer of 1987 before pushing into the modern era, weaving together timelines and perspectives in a way that builds both dread and intrigue.
Drawing inspiration from genre standouts like Tucker and Dale vs. Evil, Hatchet, and The Cabin in the Woods, the film blends visceral horror with moments of dark humor, creating a uniquely balanced experience that honors tradition while carving its own identity.
Writer-director Dillon Brown (Primal Darkness) aims to deliver everything fans crave from a slasher while boldly subverting expectations with a mid-film twist that redefines the story.
“This is an unapologetic love letter to the films that made me fall in love with horror,” Brown tells Bloody Disgusting. “But I didn’t just want to recreate that feeling; I wanted to challenge it. About halfway through, the film takes a turn that completely changes how you view not only this story, but the genre itself.”
Brown describes the vintage-inspired production as “far and away the bloodiest film I’ve ever made,” with practical effects helmed by Cody Ruch (The Mill, Pig Hill), an instructor at Tom Savini’s Special Make-Up Effects Program.
From Horror Dadz Productions, A Man in the Woods With an Axe is currently in production and targeting an early 2027 release.
