NECA Shows Off New Leatherface Toys for ‘The Texas Chain Saw Massacre’ 50th Anniversary
It’s a big year for Tobe Hooper’s The Texas Chain Saw Massacre, as the 1970s horror classic celebrates its 50th anniversary. In addition to a new map in Gun Interactive’s video game, which is launching on March 28, we also know that a 50th anniversary 4K set is on the way.
Additionally, NECA has previewed two brand new Leatherface toys that will be releasing this year, both of them based on the horror classic that started the franchise back in 1974.
Part of the Toony Terrors line, they’re based on two different Leatherface outfits.
The company previews, “Bring the fun of Saturday morning cartoons to your horror collection with the adorable little creeps of Toony Terrors, NECA’s line of stylized horror icons!
“We are thrilled to kick off the 50th anniversary celebration of the 1974 film Texas Chainsaw Massacre with two new Leatherface 6-inch scale Toony action figures. Get a fresh take on our classic Leatherface figure with this version featuring new bloody deco and updated chainsaw deco. Also available is an all-new, fan requested version of Leatherface in his “Pretty Woman” look, complete with chainsaw and iconic armadillo display base.”
Both figures come in commemorative 50th anniversary blister card packaging with cut-out cardbacks featuring original art by NECA painter Geoff Trapp.
The 50th anniversary toys are set to begin shipping in June 2024.
Funko is getting into the Halloween spirit already. Spirit Halloween and Funko are teaming up for an exclusive, limited-edition Funko POP! Movie Moment from Bride of Chucky that’ll leave you saying “I do.”
The Chucky & Tiffany Funko is available exclusively at SpiritHalloween.com now and at Spirit Halloween stores opening nationwide starting in August.
The new Movie Moment figure is “Standing at 3.5” tall, the Chucky & Tiffany Funko proves that love hurts – but there’s no doubt these two were meant to be. Featuring a blood-stained checkered floor base and fireplace background, this duo is a chilling tribute to horror’s most iconic declaration of love.”
In Bride of Chucky (1998), “Chucky, the doll possessed by a serial killer, discovers the perfect mate to kill and revive into the body of another doll. Tiffany is born.” Directed by Ronny Yu, the raucous horror comedy doubled down on the dolls, pairing Brad Dourif‘s iconic killer doll with Jennifer Tilly, who would become a horror icon in her own right as Chucky’s bride Tiffany.
Of course, Chucky and Tiffany’s dysfunctional romance is still going, er, strong today with “Chucky.” The series just wrapped its third season, which saw the on-and-off-and-on again lovebirds reunite. Here’s to hoping a season renewal is on the way soon. In the meantime, at least this new Funko POP! exclusive immortalizes the pint-sized killers in happier times.
