Amazon Gets Gears of War "Headshot" Locust

360 News from N4G | Gears of War

GamerVision Reports: "Way back in April, while scoping NECA's wares at the New York Comic Con, I took notice the Gears of War line had a Locust with an exploding head. Cue "Dreamweaver," I was in love. I had never seen an action figure with quite the attention to the source material as this one. Immediately, I began asking (read: begging) NECA for information about when and where I'd be able to get this wonderful piece of craftsmanship. They had no answer for me then, but I was persistent, asking them every opportunity I had. With last week's launch of the Lancer Bundle pre-order, I asked my guy at NECA if he had any info about the "Headshot" Locust. He told me to expect an announcement shortly, and he was right. Today, NECA broke the news Amazon.com would be the exclusive retailer for the action figure."
