While visiting Things from Another World (http://www.tfaw.com) here in Portland, I finally spotted series one from this new line. I picked up Chop Top, and can say for sure, that the wait has been worth it.

Love this figure! Love the detail, the articulation and most of all the accessories. A choice of heads and hands is brilliant, but I never thought I'd be getting a plastic version of "Nubbins" to play with (or whatever you do with him) some day.

Though I'm not too excited by the rest of this series... and yes, even Leatherface didn't tempt me much, I'm a fan of the line so far based on the strength of this figure alone. Mind you, it's not perfect (and I'll expand at some point), but it's got it where it counts.

Sign the autograph, "To a far out fan!" Mezco, and make sure we get a Drayton figure or even Lefty, Stretch or L.G. some day also.

I, somehow, completely forgot about this line.

Great little review as always pf, and I love the pics. The choice of heads is great, although I definitely prefer the bald version with the coat hanger to complement. Good set of accessories. Looks like Mezco did a really good job with this one.

I, somehow, completely forgot about this line.Yeah, honestly... me too. When I saw this hanging in the shop I was a bit surprised.

I've been a huge fan of the first two Chainsaw films for a while though, so this figure was a real treat.

I definitely want to get this figure at some point too. I'm a huge fan of the first two TCM movies as well (the third was pretty bad) and Bill Moseley is a bada**. I still find it hard to believe that somebody even made a Chop Top figure, that is just awesome!
