Leatherface’s Sideshow

Just when you thought Sideshow had done it all, they come through with another shocker like this next one.

October’s fast approaching for the New Line sequel/prequel to their remake of THE TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE, and along with the film comes a brand new Ultimate Edition DVD of the original, and now Sideshow brings us a sneak peek at a Premium Format figure of the Gunnar Hansen-era Leatherface. Granted, the image shows only the prototype of the figure in black and white, but it’s a given that the figure will most certainly be around 18 inches tall to match up with the various Freddy and Jason figures that Sideshow has churned out in the past. The figure looks to sport even more detail than what NECA gave us with their version of Leatherface in their Cult Classics line, which is obvious given the size difference, but it is NECA, who go into overdrive on their detailing. Check back soon for more info on the figure, which will probably be shipping for the 3rd quarter of this year.
