At Long Last, a Clear Look at Krueger '09

Even though the official trailer hit the net a couple months back, we still haven't gotten a good clear look at Freddy's new do - that is, until now. Figures.com just posted the first image of NECA's upcoming remake Freddy action figure and though it's only a plastic toy, it's the most we've seen of Haley's Krueger to date. And given NECA's track record of incredibly detailed and accurate likenesses, i'd say this is pretty damn close to seeing the real thing....

I have been incredibly worried of late about the look of Freddy in this redux - as seen by less than impressive small (and much too dark) glimpses in both screen grabs and the trailer - but he actually looks pretty damn cool here and if this is how he ends up looking in the actual movie, I can't say i'll be at all dissapointed. Also really digging the burnt up and charred Christmas sweater look. For now, i'd say my faith in this flick has been restored a little bit. Thanks, NECA! And a huge thanks also to reader Nathan Stout for bringing this to my attention.
