Jason has a playmate
And the world becomes a little bit better.
Hot on the heels of NECA’s incrediblevideogame Jason Voorhees, which sold out super fast at San Diego Comic-Con, comesvideogame Freddy Krueger. Like hisFriday the 13thcounterpart, Freddy’s look is based on his sprite in the LJN-publishedA Nightmare on Elm Streeton the NES. Whereas Jason is bright and purple, Freddy is red from head to toe.
The seven-inch figure will be available this November but will be limited to a single production run. It doesn’t seem like it’ll be a con-exclusive like Jason was, though I doubt that’ll make it any easier to obtain. If youdomanage to snag it and already own Grimace up there, you can film your ownFreddy vs. Jason 2using stop-motion animation!
By the way, did you know that it was Rare who actually developed the NESNightmare? Or that Atlus madeFriday? What happened there?
