Writer's picture: MephitsuMephitsu

NECA's new Hammer House of Horror release of Peter Cushing as Van Helsing is revealed in full after an initial early listing on the US Bestbuy website. Based on the movie The Horror of Dracula from 1958, Van Helsing will come with three head options and an alternative torso piece and arms, allowing him to be displayed in his waistcoat or long coat.



As usual there is also a selection of accessories including cross, hammer, wooden stakes and candle holders - plus alternative hand options to hold them securely. The set is packed up into the Ultimate format packaging with opening front cover. The box design pays homage to the movie promo's from the 1958 classic on which it is based. It is due to release in April 2025.

We've updated our Van Helsing entry on our extensive NECA Collector Database



NECA presents the second in a series of action figures from the legendary Hammer House of Horror! Hammer has produced landmark horror since the 1950s, with the first being Horror of Dracula. The film captured audiences with its mix of vivid color, carnality, and violence.


Peter Cushing plays the iconic character Van Helsing, who is sent to destroy Dracula, as played by Christopher Lee. This Ultimate Van Helsing stands in 7-inch scale and features an interchangeable waist for an alternate look in either his vest or long coat.


Accessories include interchangeable heads, hands, and gloved hands, as well as a cross, hammer, wooden stake, wooden stake bundle, and two candle holders.


Comes in collector-friendly window box packaging with opening front flap.

About Me : As a child of the '70s and '80s I grew up in a golden age for action figures and in my youth bought and sold myself through collections of Star Wars, G.I. Joe (Action Force), and M.A.S.K. while also dabbling in He-Man, Transformers and Ghostbusters. Roll forward and I am now reliving that Youth with the action figures of today and am a collector and fan of the larger 6-8 inch figures from my favourite movie and TV licenses - including the ones mentioned above, but also the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Doctor Who, and the Aliens. I launched The Mephitsu Archives in 2015 with a view of creating a UK-focused site or these figures where fans can pick up the latest action figure news, read reviews and get information on where to buy their figures and what is currently on store shelves. I hope I am delivering that to you guys...
