It’s appropriately unsettling, so much so that I almost don’t like looking at it, but it definitely works. Her face pops off easily and she has a screaming, red-eyed, face to go in its place. Bandai has been doing this for years with its figures, and I’m surprised it took NECA this long as it would have been easy to do with Goliath. And that feature is she uses faceplates instead of swapping an entire head. Maybe Disney just didn’t want people sneaking a peek under Demona’s top? Which does raise the question: why do female gargoyles have breasts? They’re an egg-laying species, most of which don’t nurse their young, but they are fantastic beasts so I guess they can follow different rules.ĭemona comes with more stuff than we’re used to, and she even has a new feature that I wish Goliath had. It’s interesting as I suspect NECA will want to reuse much of this mold for Angela at some point, but her top is different. Either that, or the torso is cut-out to fit it so it can be glued down. She basically just has a top and loincloth with the bottom piece being separate while the top appears to be part of the mold. Like Goliath, she’s inspired by the cartoon, but has added detail to make her look a bit more “alive.” It’s a bit less pronounced as she doesn’t need giant, rippling, muscles and it’s mostly seen in the texture added to her clothing. She has a big tuft of red hair that looks quite nice and the pale blue-gray of her skin lines up well with her appearance in the cartoon. Not only is she shorter than her former beau, she’s more slender as she has a very feminine physique that mixes with the gargoyle anatomy. It’s a bit smaller than Goliath’s since Demona is a smaller character. Unlike Goliath, her book can actually open and close.ĭemona is sold in the standard NECA Ultimates five-panel window box. "I want to confirm the following: This is a full line - we have 5 more figures completed and more in development.Like Goliath, she brought reading material. "The response to GARGOYLES & Goliath is nothing short of phenomenal," NECA wrote at the time. Following Ultimate Goliath's positive reception, NECA announced five more Gargoyles figures, with additional figures to come. While Goliath comes with expanded wings, fans looking for some variety can purchase the Bronx figure for the draped wings and other accessories.
NECA released its Ultimate Goliath action figure in March 2021, which is now available to purchase for $32.99. More details for these figures will be available in spring 2022.
Goliath was the first figure in the line to be revealed, and details surrounding the Demona, Bronx and the Ultimate Thailog figures were initially revealed as part of NECA Toys' 31 Nights of Fright event in October.
Earlier this year, NECA provided a sneak peek of these upcoming figures, with these recently released images being the latest development in the toy developer's line of figures based on Gargoyles characters.
