Looks like a re-release of previous figures but I hope they re-release RE4 Leon in series 2 as I missed out on him and I refuse to pay $60 plus one ebay for him.

Cool for those who do not own the original releases. I don't know if the slightly updated paint or sculpt details (?) are worth it for those who do own the originals though. I don't.

What they SHOULD do is completely re-do some of the characters to add articulation that is similar to what they did for the RE5 Chris. Can you imagine a NECA Leon or RE1 Chris with RE5 Chris's articulation? RAD.

 

[Darth_Fatso]

Yeah, more articulation would be sweet. I have Chris and the zombie but didn't get the Licker (no one in my area had series 2) so I'll pick him up. The only way I'll pick up the ones I allready have is if they redo the sculpts and the scupts look better.

damn was hoping for new characters... oh ^^^^

 

[Biojex]

yeah ive got all these, i may pick it up if the display of the packaging looks cool though. at least this potentially keeps the RE figure spark going.

 

[Odowankenobi]

I never got the Licker, so I may possible pick that one up. Still, I would have prefered new figures. We've never had decent representations of Claire, Barry, Rebbecca, or Wesker in that scale.

I thought the Wesker from Palisades Toys was decent

MOST of their RE figures were pretty awesome, it was just a few of their human likenesses that were off...

NECA's figures pale in comparison, IMHO, but if you want decent prices nowadays NECA's the only way to go

 

[Zabrak Nut]

WAIT, wait - NECA's RE4 line was friggin' amazing, paint apps and everything, and their RE5 figures thus far have also blown me away - the stuff in-between I was pretty disappointed by though :/ The Licker and Hunter are my favorite baddies, and I just felt like their figures were sub-par.

WE NEED A NEMESIS!! So I DON'T have to shell out the cash for a Palisades one!

 

[ro926]

I'm so glad I picked up the Palisades figures. I have every one, including all the exclusives.

i think palisades had the best run of figures, especially their third series, that was a doozy.

 

[ro926]

Yeah, I would have loved to see them make a Jill like they originally planned. The only 3 items of theirs I didn't get were the Claire Statue, the Nemesis bust, and the awesome William G-2 resin statue. That one's near impossible to find these days.

I never had any Palisades figures. One of my local comic shops had several including a 2-pack with Nemesis and Leon (not sure if it was Palisades) but I remeber the figures being $20 a peice and the Nemesis/Leon 2-pack was around $60 and I wasn't willing to pay that. But I wish I had (at least for 2-pack) as I remeber the figures looking really good and any Nemesis figure is damn near impossible to find under $100 now days. My friend has some of the Toy Biz figures and they don't look to bad either.

hmm do you mean the two pack with nemesis and carlos which is from moby ^^^^? There is no such thing as leon and nemesis two pack.

It could have been Carlos but I'm about 90% certain it was Leon. It's been years ago though. I am certain there was a Nemesis/Leon 2-pack though. Just not sure if it was Palisades or Moby D!ck or other.

i actually do somewhat recall this but i am not 100% certain. i know there is the carlos nemesis two-pack cause i have it but my brain is telling me there was the palisades two pack as well...hmmm

 

[Odowankenobi]

Yeah, the Palisades Wesker is pretty nice, but I've never been able to find one at a reasonable price. Plus, the Palisades stuff is in a smaller scale than the NECA stuff (Even if I do have my Palisades Mr. X displayed with my NECAs)

only by a wee bit i have them all displayed together and you cant even really notice, the new RE5 figures from Neca actually fit perfectly

Looking up at my shelf, I see that the Palisades Series 1 Soldier Zombie came with a zombie dog, Series 2 Cop Zombie came with a Licker, and Series 3 Wesker came with a full-size Hunter. These are it as far as Palisades goes.

 

[Biojex]

ya know i believe i was thinking of this when i was trying to remember a two-pack with leon in it. lousy brain cells

Was that a store exclusive?
