Freddy Kruger’s New Look Revealed Through Hard Plastic

There has to be a Top 10 list devoted to this idea some day of a character’s look being kept under wraps by a studio only to have it blown by either a toy company, a newspaper, or a video game.   I remember in ’98 when our first glimpse of the US version of Godzilla came from a black and white, grainy shot in USA Today.   Now, thanks to the toy company NECA, and to Shock Till You Drop who brought it to our attention, we have our first, full-on look at Freddy Krueger’s new facial features.

Check it out right here:

Prior beliefs that the only, real difference between this Freddy and the classic Freddy is in the look of the face are confirmed here.   This new look isn’t as over the top as Robert Englund’s look, and, to be honest, it’s a little more frightening.   Can’t wait for New Line to actually come out with an official shot of Jackie Earle Haley in all his Freddy Krueger glory.

A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET remake comes out on April 30th, 2010.

  3. Superb site, where did you come up with the knowledge in this piece of content? I’m glad I found it though, ill be checking back soon to see what other articles you have.

  4. The next time I read a weblog, I hope that it doesnt disappoint me as a lot as this one. I imply, I do know it was my option to read, however I actually thought youd have one thing interesting to say. All I hear is a bunch of whining about something that you can repair in case you werent too busy looking for attention.

  5. This is the straight Freddy Kruger’s New Look Revealed Through Hard Plastic | We Are Movie Geeks diary for anyone who wants to move out out about this subject. You observance so such its nearly tiring to debate with you (not that I real would want…HaHa). You definitely put a new rotation on a message thats been graphical nearly for age. Nice force, but zealous!
