TOY NEWS FOR 3/26/2014 - NECA - PACIFIC RIM - UPCOMING PRODUCTS (CRIMSON TYPHOON and STRIKER EUREKA RE-RELEASE - SCUNNER KAIJU - 18" CHERNO ALPHA JAEGER)

NECA's Pacific Rim line has gone so much farther than I ever thought it would and I couldn't be happier.

Even though the film never really hit "blockbuster" status, it's clear that the following it generated is extremely dedicated and hardcore. (I know I am!)

Many people missed out on the early waves, so NECA has decided to re-release both Crimson Typhoon and Striker Eureka. (Hopefully with a little better quality control.) But NECA knows that the original releases are worth a few bucks on the secondary market, so they plan on releasing these on different cards to allow the originals to still retain their value.



Also announced is the next over-sized Kaiju-- Scunner.

Scunner was one of the final three Kaiju to emerge from the portal at the end of the film.

He'll be released solo and not part of a "wave".


The final announcement comes in the form of one huge of a chunk of 18" (probably larger) plastic as Cherno Alpha joins fellow Jaeger Gypsy Danger and the upcoming Knifehead in the [normally] 1/4 scale line.


Crimson Typhoon and Striker Eureka will be released in June for around $18 each.

Scunner will be out in August for around $28.

The 18" Cherno Alpha will be released in September for around $100
