When NECA originally announced that they had acquired the Jaws license, they had been teasing figures of Quint and Brody, but unfortunately the Brody figure was cancelled due to a licensing conflict. As for the Quint figure, those are currently available as of this year. But what about Matt Hooper, played by Richard Dreyfuss in Steven Spielberg’s horror masterpiece?
Officially shown off by NECA this week, a Hooper figure is indeed on the way, and it features a licensed likeness of Richard Dreyfuss! You can check out the full image gallery below.
The company previews, “NECA is excited to announce a new 8″ clothed figure featuring the licensed likeness of Richard Dreyfuss as Matt Hooper from the 1975 classic. Standing at 8″ tall, the young oceanographer is equipped with screen-accurate accessories (two hats, duffel bag, cup, and crushed cup) as well as swappable heads and tailored clothing.”
NECA’s Matt Hooper figure will be unleashed in March 2022.
