Yeah that's what I meant......Was kinda hoping for a new head sculpt and maybe a new hand sculpt...This is the third time we've had these parts reused.
I do like the back pack and new legs though...Makes him look exciting

A new head would have been great.
That one looks like he smells something bad.

Based on what I'm seeing on eBay, it appears Neca's Deathly Hallows Series 1 is out now. Anyone pick them up yet? Snape and Greyback seem to look good, but Harry looks way too dark with the "dirt" effects. I hope it looks better in person

I was at TRU last night and they had the new series. I only picked up Snape, I may buy Harry later, but I have no intrest in buying Greyback. He seems like such a waste of figure, I would have much rather they make a new Hermione or Ron. I still am hoping that they make Luna, but I doubt they will.

The Snape is the exact same one released during OotP just in a different package...Not impressed...Like the other two though

Saw the set at my local Newbury Comics. Hoping TRU gets them soon and is cheaper than $18 a piece though. I only plan to buy Greyback. Even though I only have the statue of Snape.

I saw that in Toys R Us' ad this week they have the 3 new figures advertised and they are on sale for $9.99. I hope that I can get a Greyback figure as well as a Harry figure, I already have Snape.

Will Neca produce other Harry Potter action figures? Answer me, please! P.s. Sorry for my bad English!

There should be a wave 2 and 3...Don't know about after that...Depends on how long their license goes for You know D, now that I look back on NECA, at first they did fantastically. We had a great array of figures and they promised us a bunch of more to come...however...they are now reissuing older figures, cutting corners with older assortments and downright being lazy and stingy. I refuse to buy the new harry because what's the only new thing? A Rubber Jacket and a backpack? Ill pass on that. Ive finally came out of my HP collecting retirement and have began collecting once again Im trying to catch back up on all the things over the past two years I have missed like the popco/re:creation lines and the gentle giant bust line. It seems to me that the Bust line has the biggest array of characters available. Dont get me wrong, NECA is a great company and all, but if they re-release Hermione (who's leg tends to bend) or Ron (Who's feet bend over time) I just may call it quits on them. Ive got enough characters that Im satisfied with what I have...even if they never made a Mcgonagall, Luna, Lupin or Tonks...or even the Weasley Twin two pack...its annoying.

Just got back from Borders. They have an exclusive 3-pack again. It's the same old Ron and Hermione as well as the new DH Harry. The only accessories are the wands and bases, and the paint jobs were pretty horrendous. But it was only $30 and with the today-only 50% off coupon it was $15, so I couldn't really pass it up.

Oh yes I saw that pack yesterday...I was really disappointed

As much as it saddens me I can't see Neca making Minerva. But I hope they atleast make Luna...and release the twins.

Bad news guys...I just read on some old postings on NECA's twitter that they say Lupin and McGonagall wont be good sellers. They are making a new Voldemort for 2011 though...I swear if Its the same damn Voldemort from thier first series then Im calling it quits with them. They need to make a new ron and hermione too. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

Grrrrrrr indeed.
Perhaps a good idea for McGonagall would be a 2-pack. With Flitwick would be nice but a set with year 1 Hermione or year 2 or 3 Harry would be fine.
Whatever they have to do to get her in the line...they should do it!

I think the shots of any character besides Harry are doubtful. I heard this next series is supposed to have Voldemort which will be nice. Hoping the others are some of the new evil characters or a new Ron/Hermione. Please no new Harry! What will the next pose be? Stinging Jinx Harry? I'm hoping for Dobby/Kreacher two pack like TOMY, a Luna, Xeno Lovegood, some of the other Weasley's, Yaxley (I mean, they made Greyback), maybe even the head of the Snatchers...I just want new characters! The fact they released a three pack of Harry in DH clothes and Ron and Hermione in school robes shows how far behind they are. The three pack should have at least contained updated exclusive figures or something...Lazy NECA

Bought Harry & Fenrir Fenrir is ok...not my first choice of characters to see. Harry is once again ok. I really hope we get Luna or someone new.

Just got Greyback in this past week also... for what it's worth, he looks as good as most of the NECA figures. Now where's everyong else?
