NECA Shows Off New LittleBigPlanet And Heroes Of The Storm Toys At Toy Fair 2015
At Toy Fair 2015, the toy company NECA showed off new action figures inspired by LittleBigPlanet and Blizzard’s upcoming MOBA Heroes of the Storm. For LittleBigPlanet, there were a handful of variations on Sackboy, including a happy Sackboy, a sad Sackboy, and finally an angry Kratos Sackboy.
Each of the posable Sackboys stands 5.25” tall, and the Kratos Sackboy has two Blades of Chaos that he can sheathe on his back. These are expected to release in June 2015.

Blizzard’s Heroes of the Storm also had a few action heroes at the event. Nova Terra, the ghost who was supposed to be the hero of the never released StarCraft Ghost who eventually appeared in StarCraft II, and Illidan Stormrage based off his appearance in World of Warcraft. Both Nova and Illidan are 7” tall and have 30 points of articulation. Nova comes equipped with a rifle accessory and an interchangeable left hand while Illidan has the Twin Blades of Azzinoth he can equip. Both figures are expected to release in July 2015.
