Classic Horror! Friday The 13th Part VII-The New Blood


Creepy-that’s the best word to describe the Jason figure in Sideshow Collectibles Friday The 13th Part VII-The New Blood boxed figure.

A large picture of Jason’s hockey mask decorates the cover of the flip lid box. Inside the figure and accessories are nestled in their clear plastic cocoon with a clear plastic viewing sheet.

By far the most striking features of the figure is Jason’s head and face.

His dead gray skin covers 3/4th of his head.  The skin is pulled back over his nose making it appear as two nose holes as seen on a skull.

His puffed and misshapen kips partially cover his large white teeth that are crooked and misshapen.  

The left side of his cheek is open revealing the row of teeth beneath and the left side of his skull shows thorough at the left eye socket sans an eyeball.

Pock marks and scars cover his skin and his malevolent right eye stares out from under his heavy brow.

Two large scars run the full length from his hollow eye socket across the back of his skull.

Like Jason the figure is scarred, decaying and in several areas the bones underneath the skin are showing through, predominantly on the hands and feet.

The figure is dressed in a torn and tattered pair of green/gray pants and shirt.  The shirt has several buttons still remaining and has torn and shredded pockets with flaps and cuffs with buttons,

 The frayed trousers hang loosely in shreds over Jason’s black boots.

Included with Jason is his white hockey mask with red forehead symbol.  It is pierced by holes and is shattered on its left side.  When worn Jason’s skeletal face is seen through the shattered and missing part of the mask.  It fits snuggly over the head of the figure.

Jason comes with several weapons including a bloody axe with wooden handle, a metal spike, a large machete with a black handle and a curved sickle with riveted wooden handle.

The figure’s hands are made to hold each weapon.

Also included is a circular black base with the Friday The 13th Part VII The New Blood logo and a support wire for the figure.

The figure is also held in place by several strips of clear plastic.

The most striking features of the figure are its face, hands and feet.  The weapons are in scale, look completely authentic and Jason’s trademark mask looks just as terrifying in miniature form as its larger version.

The figure poses easily with or without its stand, moves smoothly in its tattered cloths and once posed with its weapons looks very imposing.
