I think if I buy the Neca version I might replace this dog for the neca version and keep the husky on another shelf

You know, if NECA wanted to cover some new ground with figures from this film: Palmer Monster, and Bennings monster would both be welcome sights.
The thing is for the price point Neca have delivered, great size for a diorama too.

Imagine for a moment all the characters what a display. Neca are you getting this?

I doubt they have any intention of doing the other characters unless they were specifically seen being Thingified. At best they might give us Childs because he famously ''survived'' along with Macready and because they've made a Keith David figure before.
My thoughts too, however nothing ventured nothing gained.
Love the base, where’d you get it ?
The base is a stone floor tile sample that had been kicking around for years. For versions 1 & 3 I am considering using Outpost 31 slate coasters available on Etsy turning them over so that the inscription is on the underside. The Thing wording glows in the dark, the Directed by John Carpenter is a metal pin badge.

Anyone else have trouble putting together the dog creature? I swear those instructions are not helpful. Ready to find a YouTube video i think.

I dont know how I built it and if I did it correctly in the end
Mine is finally shipping, definitely not looking to putting it together.

I just left mine in the box. Spared my nerves.
Mine came with one wrong sized peg and I snapped it trying to pull it out. IT still sits fine where it should, but that was not fun.
Just got my dog creature today and yeah, it's an absolute head-wreck. For some reason I didn't anticipate this. Just so many parts, some of which you just have no idea what its supposed to be...which I guess is appropriate
But it does make it difficult to know where stuff is supposed to go.Add in the frustrations of having to heat everything up to pop stuff off and on safely, unfreeze joints etc. Man this line will take serious patience to assemble these mutations assuming they make more. I'm not sure how much of that I have.
