McFarlane is Selling a Replica of Negan’s Bat Lucille
Put the scare into your enemies with your own replica of the bat Negan uses to murder “The Walking Dead” fan favorite, Glenn.
McFalrane Toys says Lucille is available now, although you can also pre-order from Amazon (December 23) and Entertainment Earth (March, 2017).
It’s not for playing baseball…
This adult roleplay replica of Lucille is crafted to match the exact specifications as the bat carried by Jeffrey Dean Morgan, who portrays Negan on AMC’s “The Walking Dead.” The full-size plastic bat measures approximately 32 inches long and is displayed in window box packaging. The highly detailed bat comes complete with identical markings and barbed wire-wrapped barrel end.
“Eeny, Meeny, Miny, Moe.” Negan’s use of the classic nursery rhyme sent chills down the spines of all viewers everywhere during the Season 6 finale of “The Walking Dead” TV series, right before he swung his trusted weapon, Lucille, at one of the beloved survivors.
Leader of the group known as The Saviors, Negan is one of the most merciless enemies to ever cross paths with Rick Grimes and the other survivors. With no remorse, Negan executes those who get in his way with his weapon of choice. With the barrel end wrapped in barbed wire, Lucille is the iconic baseball bat that Negan wields to not only intimidate others, but eliminate them as well.
We have the Jason Universe to thank for the recent return of Jason Voorhees, with the short film Sweet Revenge and Jason’s arrival in Dead by Daylight helping to bring the hockey mask-wearing horror icon back into our lives. What else is planned, you ask?
In a chat with Variety this week, Jason Universe’s Robbie Barsamian teases that everything we’ve seen up to this point is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to Jason’s return.
“We’ve been busy behind the scenes laying the foundation that everyone is finally starting to see come to life, but this is just the tip of the iceberg,” Barsamian teases.
“We have a thrilling lineup of new projects that we can’t wait to share more details on soon.”
Barsamian also notes during the chat with Variety, “We want to give fans fresh takes on what they love most about Jason and continue to expand his world in authentic ways that resonate with horror fans today.” One of those expansions will take the form of the upcoming Peacock and A24 series “Crystal Lake,” which stars Linda Cardellini as Pamela Voorhees.
“The Crystal Lake TV series will take fans back in time to tell the story of how Pamela Voorhees came to be the mother of all slashers,” Barsamian tells Variety this week.
“Crystal Lake” premieres October 15 on Peacock.
Callum Vinson (“Chucky”) is playing young Jason in “Crystal Lake,” which will tell the origin story of the masked slasher who has stalked the grounds of Crystal Lake for decades.
Last year, the Jason Universe team had teased that a new movie and a new video game are top priorities for the near future. But at this time we have no updates on either front.
Stay tuned for more from the Jason Universe.
