For some background, I'm a pretty big fan of Star Wars, but not a super fan. I've watched the original trilogy more than 10 times, Force Awakens 10-15 times, and the Prequels 2-4 times.

Anyone want a creepy cabbage patch-like figure of Jason Voorhees?  You couldn't be more in luck as Mezco opens up preorders for that very idea. This 15" undead-zombie killer looks to be designed after his most iconic appearance in part 3.  Dawning his hockey mask and wielding his essential machete you'd swear this figure was placed in front of a funhouse mirror....WHY NOT?!  To boot he also makes the famous "ch ch ch ah ah ah" sound!

Will you pick him up or do you like camping with 5 of your teenage friends too much? For more information and to place your order visit Mezcotoys.com
