Honetly I like the look and feel of latex. I have a latex mask collection and am not too worried about it. But large pieces like the gremlins from Neca worry me a little cause of the weight stressed on the latex. I'm afraid of them falling apart a few years from now.


I remember seeing a latex Yoda somewhere and thought it was fricken sweet. I almost bought one after pepsi yoda came broken twice.

I kept hearing about probems with them falling apart especially in the ear region. The life size figure is pretty old now. Still kinda want one.


I own a Neca latex gremlin as well. The pictures are of the lifesize latex neca gremlins and latex Yoda from illusive concepts. I own the brown gremlin.

A mask on a stand just feels safer to me as it keeps the latex from sagging where the gremlins I'm worried about being pulled apart at the seems under their own weight.
 
I would love that second green Gremlin. Haven't seen one available anywhere.

Off subject but buy here:

I kinda want one too to go with my brown one. I have a rare resin greta myself (super rare) but I like the look of this gremlin as well as neca's greta. I really want her the most. Though I think my greta has a much cooler pose. Really want a latex neca green gremlin and greta. Though mr green gremlin will probably be for my bro's b-day this year. I know he kinda wants one.Latex figures with hanging arms pulling on their latex bodies worries me alot. I like my stuff to last a decent amount of time.
 
Latex will crack and fail in time. Go to RPF and read a bit about its problems, especially on Yoda.
