About this deal

The Spider Gremlin has a ball-jointed head, neck, legs, abdomen, and full sets of knees (his legs have more than one joint).

Once you've done that it's easy, and you soon have a massive spider gremlin ready to cause havoc in your house. When I got it out of the box and assembled I was gobsmacked by how good it is, so if you're thinking about getting one just do it; you won't regret it. The package is surprisingly small, considering what's inside, which is good for storage and shelf space. It looks like some reconfiguring of the toy room is going to be required because the gremlins need new digs. I am still admiring newly found details in every tooth, tail stinger, and leg spike on this bad boy.

In fact, while it might be the best part, it is also the source of my major pain point with this guy – where the heck am I going to put him? The articulation is nothing to sneeze at either, and while the figure has all of the standard points of most of the NECA gremlins, it also adds a movable jaw(! Well, the fact remains that, no matter the timing, the brand new Spider Gremlinfrom NECA is a lock for a “best of the year” candidate, and it is most certainly a masterpiece. I cannot decide if the sculpt or the paint applications are more impressive, but both of them are at the top of the heap for any action figure I have gotten recently.

The paint and sculpting on the figure is fantastic, and NECA have really done a fine job of bringing this guy to life, so much so that I could imagine young kids or arachnophobes being quite freaked out by him. Each leg is articulated at several points, with additional joints at the arms, one in the body and at the jaw (all monster toys should get moving jaws! This is not to say that he was superfluous - he certainly showed an extra-malicious streak when he got that machine gun.If I remember correctly, January is not usually a huge time for new toys since the big year-end holiday rush just left all of our wallets crying in submission, but, so far, January has proved to be pretty fruitful in 2014. com is an Introducer Appointed Representative of Pay4Later Limited, trading as Deko, which is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FRN 728646). In the movie, he actually wasn't all that big - he towered over Gizmo, but was clearly much smaller than any of the human characters. The level of detail represented here is astounding, as the paint shows off all of Mohawk's stripes, ridges, and rills.

They were dropping on my head, dangling in front of my face, webbing up the toilet, crawling all over me. Back when Gremlins 2 came out, I remember seeing the big mutant spider gremlin at the end, and saying, "I want a toy of that! To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. This incredible re-creation of the Spider Gremlin puppet seen in Gremlins 2: The New Batch features over 30 points of articulation, including the eight massive spider legs that are articulated in three places each. However, since 2013 seems to be the year that NECA released impossible things (see also: Big Red, Trophy Wall, Predators Kenner Wave, NES Jason, etc.

A couple of years ago, something like this was deemed impossible, and we got a sloppy Berserker Predator. They can also support his weight, though likely not for too long - but he comes with a stand for just this purpose. The lines are all crisp and clean, which is incredible considering all the complex patterns Mohawk has covering his body. NECA Toys has been planning the release of this figure for quite a while, but honestly it never looked like it was going to happen. Sure, that property probably means more to me personally as I grew up more with Gremlins than the other two (I was too young for them in the ’80s), but the mogwai and gremlins figures they have been producing have been as close to perfection as just about anything going right now.
