Mondo releases a Retro Gamer Variant of Michael Myers figure with 80s video game hues.
The neon-colored figure comes with a knife, syringe, and Ben Tramer head, priced at $95.
Complete with unique clamshell packaging, pre-orders are available for August 2024.
Designed by top artists, the figure pays homage to both horror films and vintage gaming.

In a creative twist, Mondo has also introduced a Retro Gamer Variant of their upcoming Michael Myers soft vinyl figure. This figure draws inspiration from the color palettes of 1980s horror movie-based video games, like Friday the 13th. This unique figure stands out with its vibrant and unconventional colors, which are easily reminiscent of the iconic pixelated graphics that define classic gaming. The gamer variant features Michael Myers in neon blues, purples, and greens, giving a nostalgic nod to the era of 8-bit and 16-bit horror games with the craftmanship of Japanese sofubi. The figure's design maintains the same high level as his standard release and will come with a neon green knife, neon green syringe, and well as a swappable Ben Tramer head.

These retro colors offer a fresh and playful take on the infamous Halloween slasher and will get clamshell-styled packaging. The Michael Myers Halloween II Retro Gamer Variant figure from Mondo is a perfect blend of horror and nostalgia, making it an exciting addition for collectors who appreciate both classic horror films and vintage video games. Collectors will be able to slay the night for $95, with pre-orders already being live on Mondo Shop with an August 2024 release.
