NECA are continuing on with their Retro Freddy figures. They released figures from the original and Freddy’s Revenge already, and the next one would be The Dream Warriors. I am a big fan of the Retro figures and I am so stoked that they are releasing a Dream Warriors Freddy.
I know hat NECA released a 7″ Dream Warriors Freddy with the Chest of Souls revealed. Now NECA releasing a Retro figure of him. I can tell the differences between this and the previous Retro Freddy figure. The sweater doesn’t have frayed edges like he did in Revenge and his make up was different.
NECA have captured that perfectly in this Retro figure. I love the head sculpt; he’s got a really evil grin on his face. The detail is amazing as always. The chest of souls looks incredibly well detailed you can see all the distort faces of the tortured souls perfectly; I love it. It’s so disgusting, grotesque and beautiful it reminds me of Arrow Video’s deluxe release of Society. I’ll definitely display him with the chest exposed because it’s just fantastic.
This figure is shown in our NECA SDCC 2015 Photo Gallery with a picture of this figure and in the background you can see the packaging and the artwork by Jason Edmiston. In the packaging you can see the removable fedora, which is a staple of Freddy Figures, and a flesh chest piece that makes me think it’s either removable or interchangeable. Only time will tell. Either way I am really stoked for this figure. If you’re a Freddy fan, I would highly recommend this figures.
He’ll be released in October and will cost around $30. Pre-orders are currently available here.
