TOY NEWS FOR 7/28/2013 - NECA - THE LONE RANGER - SERIES 2

The film took a total dump at the box office, but the Series 1 figures were among some of NECA's best. I bought them simply for the artistry and detail-- I never even bothered to see the movie.

Series 2 is.... well, a bit of a cash-in. But, I understand that this is how NECA has to operate if they're going to give us such beautiful figures at the low price-point we've come to expect. So, that means no Butch Cavendish or other original characters for Series 2. Instead we get a maskless Lone Ranger, and Tonto with the bird cage on his head.

Not too sure how these figures will sell at retail, but does it really matter? There won't be a Series 3 anyway.

They'll be out in November for about $18.99 each.
