I agree they do look bad, but most of us will probably buy them anyway. Admit it!

Oh of course I'll still get them if they look like crap. It's still Castlevania to me.

Hell, I have a freakin' whip from Konami cause it says Castlevania on it
What a horrible night to have a curse!

I'm sorry....those are some fake pieces of garbage. If that is really how they look, which i doubt, i will be glad that i didn't preorder them somewhere. I don't need that garbage cluttering my shelf.

I heard Neca's quality have declined over the years from NECA collectors so I would not be suprised if they really look like these POS.

Seriously?! Have you seen any NECA toys in stores? They look awesome. Pirates of the Caribbean, Harry Potter, all the Player Select and Cult Classics series look great. And I'm not just talking about display pieces they show online, the actual figures are great quality.

It would be sad to see their "A" quality figures go down to this garbage and still make it onto store shelves.

And if these are by some chance real, I will be completely and utterly upset

unfortunately, I'll probably still buy them regardless

Unfortunately, I can vouch for this.

I think the Street Fighter fans are worse, imo.  I mean, those Sota SF figures are quite bad in terms of character likeness(I own most of them,) yet some ppl defend SOTA that they are the best toy company around despite the constant plastic breakage, flawed paint, and unaccurate likness to the character.  Talk about lookin through rose-colored glasses.

At least the NECA CV figures on that ebay site still looks like the characters despite how different they came out compared to the protos; Alucard still looks like alucard, drac still looks like drac, and Simon still looks like Arnold.

cornerstorecomics.com is now "processing" it's pre-orders which means they probably have them.

bigbadtoystore and afx don't have them yet, and NECA hasn't updated so there's no confirmation.

Here is an ebay link that seems to have the NECA CV figure.

http://cgi.ebay.com/NECA-Player-Select-Castlevania-4-Figure-Set-IN-STOCK_W0QQitemZ160178639026QQihZ006QQcategoryZ348QQcmdZViewItem#ebayphotohosting



I found this link on a toy forum I normally go to, which is
http://forums.toynewsi.com/index.php?showtopic=2032266&pid=16404311&st=75&#entry16404311

Is it me or did NECA gave Alucard and Dracula a bigger head. Maybe someone at the factory didn't scale the figures correctly from their 2-ups. At least Simon looks good. Dracula looks like crap, but it could be bad lightin'.
