Pophouse has teamed with NECA to launch a new line of KISS action figures inspired by their 1975 album, Dressed to Kill.
Based on the NYC photoshoot for the album, each fully articulated, 7-inch scale action figure is seen in their ‘70s business suits and features the unique likeness of all the band members – Gene Simmons as The Demon, Paul Stanley as The Starchild, Ace Frehley as The Spaceman, and Peter Criss as The Catman.
The KISS Dressed to Kill Action Figure 4-Pack comes in a deluxe collector’s box, with artwork of the figures posed like the album cover. NECA debuted the figures at San Diego Comic Con this week.
