Dead By Daylight - NECA Collaboration

Hi everyone

Hope all is Gucci around the camp fire. I just wanted to put out an idea that would be amazing for DBD, the fans, and NECA. A Dead By Daylight figure line made by NECA figures (ultimate 7 series)

NECA has made all the great licenced killers as figures, but the original DBD slashers would be amazing for the collection. We should totally push for this to become a reality.

    Neca or McFarlane would do great. The fact we have seen some statues and cutsie import mini figures makes me think they have actual action figures in the works somewhere. Usually statues and keychain type stuff is a secondary licensing concern after the "master toy license" is nailed down. When I worked in the action figure business we would send out dozen of inquiry letters to try to secure licenses, that would be the preferred route for Behavior to go; wait for a company to ask them. We also had some licensed properties reach out to us, but those deals are not as lucrative for the owner of the license. Or they could do the figures inhouse but they would have trouble getting them into big box stores at first. I still have all my overseas contacts, I have a team of skilled sculptors and designers I could throw at the property if they ever wanted to try to produce figures themselves (Behavior) and sell them online.

    That would be amazing fam. I have great respect for anyone in the figure business. Attention to detail is the best perk to have.

    I have every neca alien figure ever released (as well as from mcfarlane, kenner, and some other companies)....I have nothing else from them unfortunately haha.

    Pretty sure there is a Neca Ghostface, Freddy, Jason and Myers as well? There is an Ash one also. So you can already be part way there in a way!

    Edit: Fun fact, I made a custom mask for my 2 foot neca Xenomorph, I took a picture of him to use as my steam profile picture.

    Yeah but those are by Good smile....so they are going to be really small, really expensive, and really limited.....


    EDIT: I took this picture really quick of a Figma alien next to an inbox neca alien of similar design. To give an idea of the scale of Figma figures- and the Figma figure will still probably cost about the same if not more, and substantially more once their limited run ends.

    I absolutely love neca figures I would also love to see them make the survivors as figures as well. Also a collaboration

    with Hot Toys 🔥 would also be pretty neat.
