NECA have brought out some Hunger Games Katniss, Peeta, and Gale figures. They're pretty good sculpts and a nice size for customising. I've just used Katniss and Peeta for some customs.  |

The Peeta looks wonderful! The others are all right, but that Peeta figure really looks amazing. Maybe I'll get one or two of him...

They look great, but I see NECA doing the same failed strategy of putting the lead character(s) in every line and, most likely, under producing the other characters. I am glad to see they are branching out and including some of the other tributes, especially more prominent ones like Rue and Cato

Is it wrong to prefer this version of Katniss to the first? The first loses itself in the bulky coat, while this version is slim and attractive. But narratively, I'm torn. Although both characters did fun, defiant things in these outfits so I guess it's okay. Cato's face is odd, looks like NECA's Jacob when it got pulled from the mold too quickly. Rue looks fantastic, though not sure it looks like Rue. And I hope they fix Peeta's face this time around. The body looks very spot-on. I just REALLY wish NECA would retire the one-foot-forward pose they ALWAYS go with. The photo of all the assembled Twilight characters is laughable. |

Is it wrong to prefer this version of Katniss to the first? Both her & Peeta look heaps better in those black outfits IMO. I haven't read these books or seen the film, but I think I may have to see the movie...so I can buy these figures! ;D |

Yes. You really should read the books too. They are a fantastic trilogy!

The first series look great, good enough that I'm tempted without even being a huge fan.
I loved Rue and the figure is cute.

Series Two is out! Or, at least, two of them are. Two TRUs in my area have cases of Rue and Cato figures, but not one of either the new Peeta or Katniss. Does anyone know where those two versions can be found in stores? Or is TRU getting them late? Or did my TRUs just get shipped the wrong cases? It's rare that I only want the main characters in a line like this, and then worse when I can't even get them! |

Saw the movie last night. It was really good!
Definately buying these. Gale is an interesting choice for the first set. I gather he does more in later books/movies.
Ooohhhh...if they can make me a Lenny Kravitz figure I will be in heaven. ;D
