NECA Unveils Exclusive Nintendo Jason Figure

A few months ago, one of our website readers, Will Edwards, painted up a custom Jason Voorhees figure that mirrored the look of Jason from the 1989 Nintendo game for Friday The 13th. Sadly, we lost his images that he posted of the figure in our old Forum, but his images were actually tweeted to NECA at that time and they really liked the concept. So much so, that they have gone ahead and created an SDCC (San Diego Comic Con) Exclusive figure of Jason Voorhees from the Nintendo Video Game! Not only is the figure retro video game goodness, but the packaging will bring back memories of that long lost video game as well.

For those of you not familiar with Jason's look in  the 1980's video game, it was far different than what we all know of Jason in the films. Jason's video game look is pictured below, and that is exactly what NECA has transformed their likeness of Jason into.

NECA's Friday the 13th Jason (1989 Video Game Appearance) Comic-Con Exclusive will be a fully articulated 7-inch figure done up in that truly horrifying video game deco. Better yet is Jason's glow-in-the-dark features. Jason's mask, hands, and feet will glow a soft blue, while his included machete blade and axe head will glow white. This comic-Con exclusive will come in a special window box packaging with opening flap to re-create the look and feel of the classic 1989 Friday the 13th video game packaging.

So look for your Jason glow in the dark figure this July at SDCC, priced at $25!

Thanks to Will for letting us know about the figure.
