McFarlane Toys’ Revived Movie Maniacs Line Finally Has a Horror Figure… Pennywise! [Toy Fair]

Published

on

Last year, McFarlane Toys’ Movie Maniacs line was quietly revived with a laughable series of figures that included characters from The Hangover, Looney Tunes, Harry Potter, and Wizard of Oz.

Thankfully, the new line actually includes a horror figure, and it’s a doozy. Take a look at the brand new Pennywise plastic as featured in New Line Cinema’s smash hits It: Chapter One and It: Chapter Two, both new adaptations of Stephen King’s popular book.

The figure comes boxed in a diorama with the creepy house and comes with a collector’s card.
