ReAction Preview: Horror series

Horror Series

Funko and Super 7 are releasing a Horror series for the ReAction line. The ReAction line creates 3 ¾” figures in a retro "Kenner" 5POA style.

 The crow figure looks cool, i only barely remember this i am afraid.

 Freddy looks nightmarish and therefore cool.

Now you can see who would win between Jason and Freddy.

 Michael Myers looks very cool as well.

 

I only vaguely remember these movies, as disturbing.

 This movie is cool fun and Sam is cute.

Opinion:

I like this line and think they are awesome. I have no real criticisms at all.

Available:

 August 2014

ReAction: Alien, Kane

Kane

Kane is part of the first line of the new Reaction figures from Funko and Super 7, they are 3 3/4 inch "Kenner" style figures with five points of articulation (the Alien has six). 

 The Nostromo space suit is very detailed and movie accurate.

 The figure stands well and looks impressive. 

 "It looks like some kind of secreted resin." Yes i know but, well.

 That entrance kind of reminds me of something...

 Considering the scale of the figure he does look rather accurate.

"Hang on, i'm just going to put my face up to one of these creepy pulsating egg like canisters!"

 I really like the space suit.

 I would like to get a cheap plastic "playset" or simply a back drop for them to stand in front of.

 The crew reunion.

 The suit is so detailed he really looks at home exploring another planet.

The helmet is clear and can be removed.



 The head sculpt is alright.

I think they did an awesome job modeling this figure.

 The figure stands about 4" tall and only comes with his helmet.

He can hold the other figures accessory's.

ReAction news; The Rocketeer SDCC exclusive

The Rocketeer:

Funko just announced a SDCC exclusive Figure for the 2014 SDCC (San Diego comic convention). 

 Its the Rocketeer in black and white. That is rather cool, though the movie was in colour. 
He would fit in with the Bif Bang Pow Twilight Zone figures.

 Here he is with the Ghostbusters exclusives for 2014 SDCC.

ReAction News: Nightmare Before Christmas

The Nightmare Before Christmas

Funko and Super 7 are releasing figures for the ReAction line based on the movie The Nightmare Before christmas.
The ReAction line creates 3 ¾” figures in a retro "Kenner" 5POA style.

The Nightmare Before christmas is a weird but enjoyable Yule movie released in 1993.

 This is a grinning Jack, it is a pity he didn't come with a different accessory like a red and white Yule hat.

What is the go with this facial expression?  Its bizzare, and i think i love it, i wish the variants had different names so buying online was easier. I would have liked a different accessory, like his ghost dog?

This is the one i think of as the "normal" Jack, he has his book of holidays, i think.

I like that this figure is so tiny and comes with a bunch of accessories.

Is it wrong that i dont even remember him from the movie, i only re-watched it last year... Still who wouldn't want a big guy with an axe in his head?

 Ahhh the created stereotype of a devil, he is cute, i think his pitchfork is adorable.

Like most politicians he is two faced. He is a cool figure.

A completly superflious character, really i would have rather had any other background character, the Ishtar bunny, Santa, Boogie  anyone really. I suppose she is an okay figure, and comes with her poising tools by the look of it... I think she is missing her stitches?

Opinion:

These figures look highly polished and i don't know if they fit exactly into the ReAction line, i cant quite put my finger on what it is, so it may be nothing. something about the Mayer definitely doesn't sit right with me for some reason.
Having said that Jack, Devil and Barrel will probably find a home here.

Released: 

August 2014

About the holidays:

christmas is a christian holiday believed to have been incorporated into the christian calender to help convert the pagans, it is heavily based on Yule, the pagan holy celebration of the winter solstice. Yule is celebrated 21 or 22 December in the northern hemisphere and 21 June in the southern hemisphere.

Halloween or Samhain is a seasonal religious holy day celebrated on the 30th of April–1st of May in the Southern Hemisphere, and as it is a seasonal festival it is celebrated on the 31st of October –1st of November in the northern hemisphere.

At Samhain the veil between this world and the spiritual world is very thin, as such it is a time to communicate, honor and pay respect to those who have died.

ReAction News: Firefly

Firefly

Funko and Super 7 are releasing figures for the ReAction line based on the hit series Firefly.
The ReAction line creates 3 ¾” figures in a retro "Kenner" 5POA style.

Firefly is a space opra adventure series released in 2002 where the crew of the Serenity struggle to survive in the future of 2517.

 Pilot of the Serenity, Hoban has a "Hawaiian shirt" so why couldn't (The Goonies) Chunk? He also has the most amazing accessory of any action figure ever, toy dinosaurs!

Jayne is a hired gun and he comes with two of them! 

 Ships mechanic and kind of a techno mystic savant, she looks pretty cool and i adore the accessory.

 Owner of the Serenity, he has a golden gun.

Second in command of the serenity and wife of Hoban, she is not a person with whom to mess.

Opinion:

Firefly is a much loved franchise and i am sure these will do very well. With a few characters missing, and a Reaver or two, i am sure there will be a wave two.

Release:

August 2014
