Syndicate Collectibles Pumpkinhead figure review

[@MsSASQUATCH3]

Duuude I really hope they make the werewolf from Dog Soldiers

[@TyrannosaurusMoth]

That would kick so much ass! Their next release is going to be the werewolf from The Howling so I think if anyone picks that up, it would be Syndicate!

​@@TyrannosaurusMoth I had that on pre-order, but then canceled after I saw Dean Knight's review. They really didn't capture the movie design well, other than the long pointy bunny ears. The eye and teeth paint don't look great. The craziest thing is it's the same price as Pumpkinhead. It's itty bitty by comparison, and you get less stuff. If it was the cost of a NECA figure, I'd probably still get it - just 'cause I have a thing for werewolves.

This is pretty sick, looks like it would display well on the shelf with NECA Ultimates. Really hoping they actually end up producing the Klownzilla , that’ll be a day one preorder for me

[@TyrannosaurusMoth]

It looks right at home with NECA's Ultimates and it rules. NECA has had the horror action figure niche cornered for so long and it's refreshing to see a new company come in to give us some stuff that they either can't or won't delve into so I'm all for it haha. That being said, I'm right there with you on Klownzilla!

[@uncle_vatred]

@@TyrannosaurusMothpretty much my thoughts exactly! I was pretty excited by that 8” scale stuff Trick or Treat Studios did last year when it got announced, but seeing it all in hand the figures just didn’t really do it for me, I ended up passing on them. This Pumpkinhead looks way more in line with what I’d want out of a NECA competitor/equivalent. I honestly don’t even love the movie but I’ll probably snag this if any of my local shops end up getting it. It seems like NECA is gonna get back on track with horror stuff in 2025 (I’m so hype for the Ash and Cheryl 2 pack plus those new Ultimate Leatherfaces) but I agree that there’s just so many untapped licenses and stuff, we need another player in the game

[@TyrannosaurusMoth]

@@uncle_vatred I totally forgot about the Trick or Treat Studio stuff! I gotta look into them again. At least look at some reviews. I'm right with you on the upcoming NECA stuff! That Ash and Cheryl pack is one of my most anticipated for the year and I'm real interested in seeing how those Leatherfaces turn out. They look amazing and though I do love the Mezco Leatherface, I really want a well done Leatherface with fewer soft goods.

[@uncle_vatred]

@@TyrannosaurusMothyeah i skipped the one:12 Leatherface even tho it looked great, im not really a fan of softgoods stuff or stuff at that scale for that price range. That ultimate pretty woman Leatherface NECA showed off at the cons this past year is like my dream figure lol , so hype. Plus the revamped ultimate vanilla Leatherface is along overdue update, the og NECA ultimate Leatherface always had a very meh face sculpt to me. On top of all that, there’s the 8” cloth hitchhiker reissue that’s also happening.

I know Klowzilla is comin', so here's hoping they'll be doing the other main three Klowns. For some weird reason, I didn't get those SOTA Killer Klowns. Only SOTA fig I ever got was Jeepers Creepers...back when figures came with dioramas at no extra cost. And here's hoping they'll finally put out that Leprechaun figure that was shown off all those years back, complete with the wishing well. Besides their upcoming Ghoulies stuff, let's hope they do Critters too. Like they could do both bounty hunters, and come with various Crites. Oh, and we need Torok from Troll!

[@TyrannosaurusMoth]

I'm so excited for that Klownzilla! And I would imagine the other Klowns couldn't be too far behind, especially if Klownzilla does well. Never got any of the SOTA horror stuff myself, though I do have the Street Fighter Vega and I love that figure. How long ago did they show off Leprechaun? And I'd be all for Critters! Your idea of having them come with the Crites is money if you ask me.

[@Chalor.]

Man wouldn't it be awesome to get an Ed Harley figure. I know it won't happen, but I'd make it like a Pumpkinhead accessory pack too. So you'd get Pumpkinhead's Ed head, the rifle he uses to spear that one kid, a left gripping hand, the dirt bike chain, and the mummified "husk" Pumpkinhead...complete with removable necklace. Shit, make it an Ed & Haggis deluxe 2-pack affair. Charge $100, and the exclusive version could come with a 1:1 replica of the necklace.

[@TyrannosaurusMoth]

Dude, you have fantastic ideas! I would literally buy all of that if they went that route!
