McFarlane Toys General Video Games (Fallout, Diablo, etc.)

Reminds me I need to buy that Crash Bandicoot figure that's out there by whomever. I'm in for Twisted Metal, though I hope it's the game and not the show. Honestly, I feel like 1/18th scale figures AND vehicles would be right up JoyToy's alley. I'm in for at least Sweettooth in whatever form he takes so long as it doesn't suck. I have no idea how Todd's going to do Axel, the guy trapped between two giant monster truck tires. Thankfully most of these games are newer so I don't need much of anything from them. I'd forgotten that Todd was doing Diablo, as they seems like a property he's uniquely attuned for.

I just wish someone would finally make some d@mned Left 4 Dead 1 & 2 figures. Although my wallet hopes no one ever does. Dino Crisis figures could be fun as well.
 
You could, and we can talk about how the majority of NECA discussions are about unfinished lines or half hearted attempts or missing some critical detail that upsets fans because nostalgia isn't always enough. But I'll beat you to the counter with my own, in that Super 7 gets a lot of complaints and then the second they pull some obscure license that you have for remember from a commercial that one time you were in a hotel in a different time zone and discovered a cartoon you'd never heard of, everyone's on board to buy a complete wave fully knowing you're getting hosed on quality and price.

So it could go either way.

Sony has a weird curated nostalgia driven by their acknowledged internal checklist for single player narratives across their workhorse first party studios. I love Sly Cooper and I think it's really stupid they haven't remastered any of it or repackaged it to make it accessible.

Put your own point was that Spin Master probably had their arms tied if this is Sony's decision, and I was just saying yes, Sony doesn't like to acknowledge a lot of those older franchises. They are like the anti Nintendo, while at the same time, both companies make arcane decisions about what we're supposed to want.

So the short version is I agree with you in the desire, but it's just not a thing I would expend any of my manifestation mutant powers on.
