NECA’s Mego-Style Jason Loses the Hokey Hockey Mask

Are those Bugle Boys you're wearing?
Don’t get me wrong, I like Jason’s iconic hockey mask as much as the next horror guy. But it’s so 80’s that it’s almost no longer scary. I think Jason is a classic slasher, but he never really scared me as a kid. It was hard to be scared while eating Skittles and laughing at elaborately gory kills from a guy who looks like he should be in an 80’s metal band.

But Jason’s mask from the second movie scared the rainbow colored poop out of me when I was young. To me, somebody who puts a goalie mask on before killing people clearly cares way too much about his appearance. But there’s something very unsettling about someone who puts a sack over his head and only takes the time to cut out one eye hole (and isn’t the Elephant Man).

That’s why I love this upcoming Mego-style Jason figure from NECA. I love that it’s a throwback to old-school Mego 8” figures. And I love that it’s a throwback to a pre-goalie era of Jason. I’ll be buying the shit out of one of these in October.

  2. It has fully emerged to crown Singapore's southern shores and undoubtedly placed her on the global map of residential landmarks. I still scored the more points than I ever have in a season for GS. I think you would be hard pressed to find somebody with the same consistency I have had over the years so I am happy with that. 먹튀검증
