So this is cool! It seems that NECA is designing more toys based on the John Carpenter-helmed sci-fi classic THEY LIVE (1988), with a version of Keith David's iconic Frank Armitage coming soon! You can even see David himself enjoying the figure on his official Twitter account:
I never imagined a Frank Armitage action figure. Now that it’s here, I love it! See the resemblance? #ComingSoon #TheyLive pic.twitter.com/pqD08KHRYi

Now, this isn't the first NECA THEY LIVE figure (there was one of the alien invaders, sans disguise, and one for Roddy Pipers John Nada announced earlier this year), but it's still cool nonetheless!
Meanwhile, here's the official synopsis for the film, in case you haven't seen it yet (though that should be remedied soon!):
Nada (Roddy Piper), a wanderer without meaning in his life, discovers a pair of sunglasses capable of showing the world the way it truly is. As he walks the streets of Los Angeles, Nada notices that both the media and the government are comprised of subliminal messages meant to keep the population subdued, and that most of the social elite are skull-faced aliens bent on world domination. With this shocking discovery, Nada fights to free humanity from the mind-controlling aliens.
So what do you guys think? Fans of the movie? If so, down to get the toys? Either way, sound off below!
