[Sachiel]

I want GamingHeads to make them, that way I won't have to choose what team color I want the statue to be

And it's wearable

The Valve one was also wearable. This makes me think that maybe NECA worked something out to just re-release the old Valve one with better coloring.

Actually Valve made a headcrab plush (not wearable) and then the hat which doesn't work for display so well because it's not very stuffed/full. The plush is worth quite a bit as it's been sold out a few years now but that may change with this coming.

NECA posted new images of the Smoker.

 

[Red Metal]

I know NECA does great horror style stuff and LFD is cool and all, but c'mon where's Alyx and Eli Vance, Barney, and Dr. Kleiner? NECA wants to do some bloody dead thing, then how about a Headcrab Zombie or Zombine.

 

[Snakey Jones]

Still waiting for a dota 2 announcement; Haven't played the game, not even sure if its bloody out yet; but i love the character designs.
Really need that Bloodseeker.

 

[Sachiel]

NECA already announced DOTA 2.

 

[Snakey Jones]

No ****ing way, how on earth did i miss that?
Where was this? SDCC? Toyfair?
Regardless, though its not the bloodseeker, very awesome looking figure, been looking for something other than motuc to scratch my fantasy itch.

Oh, and thanks for the pics mate

(I'm serious though, how the hell have i not seen this before?)

 

[Sachiel]

It's part of the Valve license. DOTA 2 was confirmed back in June of 2011.

That figure and merchandise from WETA was on display at Valve HQ. It was just shown last week.

 

[Snakey Jones]

Ah, that explains it, typical Valve keeping all the cool **** to themselves :/
I noticed the weta statue was also one of Axe, so is he the games mascot or something? There are a ton of characters in the game and a lot of cool designs, wonder how neca decides which ones to turn into figures.

So, those of us who bought the past 3 limited versions just wasted money when this one's pretty much a 3-in-1...

 

[CultofSkaro]

Absolute ROFL.

Love that.

Wow, that is such a **** move by NECA.

I only managed to get one of the Portal guns (P-Body) and never had any intention on buying all three, but I certainly would have bought this one instead. Plus, the 3-in-1 is actually cheaper than what the single versions retailed for - $99 vs $140; not to mention how hard the exclusive P-Body and Atlas were to get.

 

[NataN]

This is total BS. Neca had just pissed off everyone who bought one of these. fans hate them for making an all in one for a cheaper price, and scalpers hate them for devalueing their investment. time to sell my original and buy 2-3 of these for the money I will get back, but that's if I can sell it now with this news.

 

[Sachiel]

LMFAO... oh NECA...

I bought the P-Body and ATLAS versions. I had a feeling something like this would happen. It always does.

But at least I'll get the 'original' version for good cheap!

 

[NataN]

this new one will look a little tacky with a sticker of the aperature science logo unstead of it painted on, same with the stripes but. the price tag is better then the original price and waaay better then evilbay prices.

so is the a bbts exclusive is it limited?
