Hello again my friends and welcome back to some more coverage from the New York Comic Con for 2022. So as I’ve just wrapped up the Day Three visuals, I wanted to pause for a moment and shine the spotlight on two of my favorite companies. As you know, the PiercingMetal outlet has been going to the Toy Fair since 2011 but pandemic pauses and changes found it being moved to the Fall of next year. With no Toy Fair in 2022, it made good sense to visit the toy companies we know well and lend them some love. This post features some visuals from both NECA and Playmobil. I’ll start with NECA and if you are only just now joining us and want to see the full NYCC presentations from the beginning just click HERE to do that.

NECA always has a lot of cool stuff and here are some of the new additions to their “Toony Terrors” line of action figures. These are essentially the movie monsters and antagonists done as if they were in cartoons. The idea is brilliant when you think about it.

It was back in July when I decided to share the Official Trailer for the reboot of “The Munsters” television series which is now a comedy film by the one and only Rob Zombie. If you didn’t see that trailer post just click the hyperlinked text to launch that one quick and easy. The film will be available for streaming on the Netflix service at the time of this post being published and to keep these posts a bit more comprehensive I’ve included the Official poster, premise and casting for good measure.

While I would normally post this kind of a movie trailer post over on “The Chronicles of Piercing Ken”, I decided to let it run on PiercingMetal based on the fact that its monster based, is a redo of a classic television show and oh yeah, it comes from the creative brain of one Rob Zombie. According to reports, the creeptastic performer was a huge fan of the original Horror Comedy and has added his revision of it to his box of films. Let’s take a look at the recently dropped trailer. I’ve also added a basic premise, some of the casting and some artwork. Enjoy.
