Under the Tents: NECA, 2000AD, BeeFy & Co, Lord Mesa, Justin Harder, James Silvani

After Memorial Day, the floodgates of San Diego Comic-Con open wide, and we all just struggle not to drown in it (which is half the fun! Right?!). But that doesn’t mean we haven’t had a lot of news this week, including our first look at one of NECA’s San Diego Comic-Con exclusives, items available from 200AD and BeeFy & Co, and lots of news on artists and the exhibit floor.

Here’s a look at what you might have missed:

Paper doll artist and puffy pin maker Jessica Yamboa posted on Instagram her latest work for the SDCC art show. It is a Riverdale‘s Veronica Lodge themed mermaid paper doll.

We have more information on upcoming exclusives from concept designer Justin Harder. We get our first glimpse in a tweeted video of a Deadpool pin, followed by a tweet with a detailed picture letting us know he and exclusives can be found at Small Press table O-08, and lastly a tweet letting us know he will be attending this year’s Comic-Con preview night selling a Deadpool package of a pin, patch, poster and shirt.

NECA has been great about answering fan questions and tweeting up a storm. They stated there might be a preview of Ash vs Evil Dead Series 2 figures at Comic-Con, there will be a most limited to date release of an exclusive Mego style figure, teases of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles heading to Comic-Con and finally information that exclusives will be available in limited quantities for purchase online which will go on sale in about a month and will not ship until after Comic-Con.
