Due to Licensing Issues, NECA Has Cancelled Toony Terrors NES Jason Voorhees and Freddy Krueger Figures

Well, it was too good to be true. After the sneak reveal on Friday the 13th, people who pre-ordered the Toony Terrors NES versions of Jason and Freddy have been receiving cancellation emails stating that NECA is unable to offer the figures, as reported by ToyArk.

NECA has in turn removed all mention of the figures from their website and socials. As you may recall, due to the ongoing issues resulting from Sean Cunningham’s lawsuit over the rights to Friday The 13th, and now with the recent troubles with NECA and the A Nightmare On Elm Street license, there was a hold put on new Freddy and Jason merchandise.

NECA’s Randy Falk stated that these figures had been approved in 2018 (before this nonsense began), but it seems that even these figures are at the mercy of the law.

No word yet when (or if) these figures will be available, but it looks as though the upcoming Part V Roy and 8” Clothed New Nightmare Freddy figures are the last we’ll be seeing for a while.

The full release of V Rising is coming up quick. And just in case the upcoming Castlevania crossover wasn’t enough, Stunlock has released a new gameplay trailer showing off the new Ruins of Mortium endgame zone for V Rising.

Once the heart of the powerful Vampire civilization, the Ruins of Mortium now lies in ruins, teeming with the cult-like remnants of Dracula’s forces. Players will encounter the Draculin, creatures tainted by Dracula’s influence, and face off against his Vampire Generals. The ultimate challenge awaits as players journey into the depths of Mortium to confront Dracula himself. While battling through his forces and disrupting dark rituals intent on reviving the ancient Vampire king, players will uncover ancient powers and prepare for the ultimate showdown against the tyrant himself.

Ruins of Mortium is just one piece of the new content for V Rising when it launches in full. Here’s a rundown of what to expect:

  • Explore a new deadly endgame zone: The Ruins of Mortium
  • Experience dynamic endgame events
  • Fight a new breed of foe and new V Blood bosses
  • New weapons, A new tier of equipment, and magic improvements
  • Improvements to castle building, decor, and storage
  • Native, smoothly implemented gamepad support
  • Game optimization and visual improvements

V Rising exits Early Access on Steam on May 8th, alongside the Legacy of Castlevania crossover. A PlayStation 5 version will also be released later this year.
