NECA Ultimate Goliath from Gargoyles

NECA have announced that they will be releasing figures from the classic 1990s animated series. Gargoyles featured a supernatural clan of Gargoyles displaced from their Scottish home to modern Manhattan when their castle was relocated. The Gargoyles are stone statues during the day, but transform to living creatures at night time.



The line will kick off with Goliath, leader of the Gargoyles, in Ultimate format in July 2021. Goliath features two face options, alternative hands, jalapeno pepper, and a book. We can't quite see the book cover to see if this is the Grimorum Arcanorum. Goliath will stand 8 inches tall with a 16-inch wingspan.


Pre-orders are now open for Goliath with a current release date of July 2021. NECA have confirmed there are 5 figures already complete for the line, with more in the works - so we'd expect further reveals in this exciting Gargoyles line as we move further into 2021.



Update: NECA has confirmed that the line is a US-only license, so the items cannot be stocked by UK or any other global retailers - despite some already taking preorders. his will leave collectors outside the US having to source via US sies who can ship globally, paying a premium to do so in custom charges and shipping fees



"One thousand years ago, superstition and the sword ruled..." The time of the Gargoyles has come again! Arguably the best gothic cartoon of the 1990s, Gargoyles followed an ancient clan of gargoyles transported to modern-day Manhattan when their Scottish castle is relocated. Leader Goliath joins the Ultimate line with an appropriately large 8" action figure, with a wingspan of 16 inches! The figure features full articulation, including on wings and tail, and comes with plenty of accessories: wings, pepper, book, and interchangeable heads and hands. Comes in display-friendly window box packaging with opening flap.

About Me : As a child of the 70's and 80's I grew up in a golden age for action figures and in my youth bought and sold myself through collections of Star Wars, G.I. Joe (Action Force) and M.A.S.K. while also dabbling in He-Man, Transformers and Ghostbusters. Roll forward and I am now reliving that Youth with the action figures of today and am a collector and fan of the larger 6-8 inch figures from my favourite movie and TV licences - including the ones mentioned above, but also the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Doctor Who and the Aliens. I launched The Mephitsu Archives in 2015 with a view of creating a UK focused site or these figures where fans can pick up the latest action figure news, read reviews and get information on where to buy their figures and what is currently on store shelves. I hope I am delivering that to you guys...
