NECA has released updated images for their upcoming Hatchet 8" Victor Crowley figure which you can purchase from our sponsor BigBadToyStore.com. After years roaming the swamps of New Orleans, the supernatural slasher and main antagonist of the Hatchet series, Victor Crowley, makes his action figure debut in NECA’s 8″ Clothed figure line. His gruesome head sculpt features rooted hair and the axe wound left by his father. Standing at approximately 8″ tall, Victor Crowley wears his battered overalls made with real fabric and is equipped with a belt sander, and double-sided axe.

Even though Katee Sackhoff just appeared a few weeks ago as the Mandalorian known as Bo-Katan in the Disney+ The Mandalorian live-action series, she is a character that has had tremendous influence in the Star Wars Universe going all the way back to the Clone Wars. The character first made her debut back in 2012 during the fourth season of The Clone Wars animated series where she started out as a bad guy who was a thorn in the side of Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker. The animated version of the character was actually voiced by Sackhoff. She has also tussled with the likes of Darth Maul and Ahsoka Tano during various episodes of The Clone Wars. In later seasons of Clone Wars she switched sides and became more ally than bad guy, a story that continued into the Rebels animated series where she developed connections with the likes of Sabine Wren. On more than one occasion Katan became the acknowledged leader of the Mandalorian people and was the last person to be seen in possession of the Dark Saber until we saw it pop up in the season one finale of The Mandalorian where we saw Moff Gideon have it. There are even rumors that Katan will be appearing in the upcoming Bad Batch animated series coming to Disney+ in 2021. So it doesn't take a genius to figure out that it's only a matter of time before Hasbro gives us a new 6" Black Series figure of Bo Katan. Not only does she have a ton of history with obviously more story to come, she's just a cool looking female Mandalorian. One does have to wonder about the aging process of Mandaloran's, being Katan is a character that has been around before the rise of the Empire as well as after it's fall, and seemingly has changed little in age. According to a report made by YakFace, the code name being used by Hasbro for Bo Katan with retailers is Cookies Macaroon and that they will definitely be doing a figure of her for their Mission Fleet line. While I've not seen anything specifically yet, you know its only a matter of time before we see the character pop up for both The Vintage Collection and Black Series.

This past weekend we told you about how this set appeared to be in the works and now NECA has all but confirmed the upcoming Target exclusive TMNT Animated Series Turtles In Disguise boxset with this new image. The DCPI# for this set is listed as 323-07-1797 with a price of 99.99. Based on the teaser it looks like the set will include the four Turtles wearing trench coats and features those silly masks seen in the 80's cartoon. The masks looks like actual headsculpts so we will assume the set will also feature alternate regular Turtle heads. The trench coats are soft good and look to be removable.
