Meet NECA's Left 4 Dead Deluxe Boomer

IT'S TOY FAIR TIME! Well, not really, but we are starting now anyway because we're rebels. When we last heard about NECA taking on Left 4 Dead action figures, it was during San Diego Comic-Con, and we'd seen nothing more than some art on a teaser card. Now NECA gives us an excellent look at their first figure...the Deluxe Boomer!

The Boomer is a bloated infected that can spit vision-impairing bile on the Survivors, attracting hordes of infected, and explodes on death, spewing more bile in the immediate area. They emit burping and vomiting like sounds when close by. A five-note low piano cue plays to warn of the Boomer's arrival.

Now you can re-create your cherished moments of taking on the Boomer and making him explode into a million juicy bits with NECA's fully articulated action figure, which splits in half at the abdomen to complete the effect. Yum. NECA says this is not the end and promises a "Smoker Zombie" as well.

Look for the Deluxe Boomer this spring, and keep your eyes glued to Dread Central and Idle Hands for Toy Fair coverage this February!
