They look to make money, not make cool figures that we all want. No part V and VII figures yet?!?! That's the only two damn figures we want now!! Just make them and then continue making the same figures over and over again. I bet they'll be a final chapter figure made once again too. But hey, we already have that one so we don't want it again. Stop making the same sh*t over and over again... " V and VII aren't popular" That dude sounds like a computer talking, not a human. haha The people who are working for big company’s aren’t fans of sh*t.

Jason ALWAYS sells no matter what film the representation is from. Toys R Us and Spencers and Newbury Comics NEVER have a Jason on the peg once he's released. I think only a few remake Jasons from Mezco are still around. It doesn't matter which version it is, it usually sells pretty damned fast and after market prices are usually high. The fact that there are so many customizers making part 5 and part 8 Jason figures should be an indication! People DO want this and even casual horror fans I think would buy them! Hell, if they're unsure just literally retool a Michael Myers figure with the new elbow joints put a Roy head on it and do a limited run! I would bet everything I own that they will sell out!

C'mon...if JGTH can have a figure that sells well, then so can these (I'd take either of those films over JGtH anyday). Plenty of people want EVERY incarnation of Jason, regardless of what film they're from! Y’know, I’m not wild about 5, and I detest JTM, but I STILL want figures of those films!

Where's our NECA guys, Randy? I think that if Mezco ever get's the F13 license back, they'll make these two figures. All the 7" COF Jason figures they made were never produced before. Atleast in that scale. I'm really siked for the NECA Jason from the Remake, so let's get some Part V & VIII already. sirbrad, you said it perfectly, “outdated knowledge.”

If we do a new Jason I’d like to do pre & post Uber from Jason X maybe. Both could be cool as figs" they did do a pre Uber lol

Also... I wouldn't mind smaller ones, like GIJoe figures, of people from all of the movies. (as long as the prices aren't silly) Series one could have a few people from each movie and maybe one or two jason's. Each series can be like that. If succesful enough, they could branch into what if type stuff... Why doesn’t someone just make a set that as a Jason from each film?

I don't "dislike" any of the movies. Growing up I did not care for Jason X, JGTH, or Roy, namey because they did not follow the same old format, which is why everyone else disliked them. Today they are more appealing to me because they were unique. Part 8 not popular? Not from all the posts that I have seen on forums. Not sure where Neca is reading they are just assuming based on outdated knowledge. They are a company and yet don't realize that a lack of two figures in a series makes them even more sought after. They just think not enough people will buy them to be worth it. But that is why we have customizers like One's Customs to fill in those gaps with articulated figures not statues. And who gives the fans what we want, not act like they think what we want. They just keep putting out different versions of the same figure. You want them to sell, do a limited run then, (aka sideshow tactic) and you can bet they will sell out.

This Neca guy is living in the past. Maybe 15 years ago we thought this way, but the Roy storyline is classic today. Part 8 had a cool look to it, sans the unmasking. These figures would sell more now that they're sought after. Maybe Neca knows what they're doing! I agree with Tony C. This Neca guy is living in the past.

I just don't understand why companies think that we hate these movies. Maybe in the 80s or even 90s these movies weren't respected entries in the series. Now over 20 years since either release, there are fans that want there voices heard. I mean really. It's not like they're selling the movie, it's the figures that we want. I'll take a figure of each likeness that Jason had, regardless if the movie was so-so. That being said, I'd love NECA to make a boxset of Halloween 3: Season of the Witch. This is another movie from a long series that needs some love. Yeah I think that the only ones that don’t want a figure of Part V or VIII is the companies producing figures.

That was the Cinema of Fear line along with Part III Jason & Freddy in doctor's outfit from ANOES 4: The Dream Master. ;) And they really ought to make a Roy & Manhattan Jason figures. While yes JTM suck & ANB is so-so, but it doesn't mean the figures won't sell. Nothing wrong with at least giving it a shot. jv, actually Mezco made Debbie with the roach’s arms figure, not NECA.

I guess most fans werent too happy with it. Cant please everyone I guess. And the picture of Roy up above looks cool. I actually liked the premium part 3 figure, but I didnt get to comment.
