For Halloween collectible action figures, I rank NECA Ultimate Michael Myers from Halloween H20 as the best overall pick for its recognizable character and collector-focused presentation. NECA Ultimate Frankenstein’s Monster is a standout for classic monster displays, while the 10-piece horror mini set suits buyers who want a group of figures rather than one centerpiece. The main tradeoff is between detailed, larger figures and more affordable-looking compact or multi-piece options, which generally give up scale or character-specific detail. Licensed character versions also vary by film era, so a familiar name may not match the look you want. Read on for the full breakdown, selection criteria, and advice on choosing the right figure for your display.

Key Takeaways
- NECA’s Ultimate figures lead for display detail: the Michael Myers, Jason Voorhees, and Frankenstein’s Monster options offer a stronger collector focus than the small multipacks and vinyl figures.
- Michael Myers is represented by several distinct film versions: H20, Resurrection, Halloween 6, and the 2007 film figure are not interchangeable if screen-specific accuracy matters to you.
- More figures do not always mean a better centerpiece: the 10-piece mini set and TZMAPU five-pack suit group displays, while single licensed figures make more sense for focused shelves.
- Scale and format shape the display: figures range from 5-inch and 6-inch options to 7-inch, 8-inch, and 9-inch formats, alongside bendable and vinyl designs.
- The unusual picks serve different audiences: the Clone Trooper Halloween Edition adds a crossover angle, while Elvira and Ghostface work better for character-led or compact displays than for classic monster shelves.

More Details on Our Top Picks
TZMAPU Horror Animal Action Figures, 5-Pack
For Halloween collectors who want several creatures in one display, this five-figure set offers more variety than NECA’s single-character Freddy Krueger or Frankenstein’s Monster. The movable joints make the figures easier to arrange in small scenes, while the horror-animal theme gives a shelf a different look from the lineup’s familiar movie villains. PVC construction suits regular display handling, though the provided description does not identify the animals individually, so buyers seeking specific characters may find the set less predictable. At 2 × 1 × 3 inches, each figure takes up little space, but the compact scale also limits fine visual detail compared with the larger NECA figures. I’d choose this set for a grouped, space-conscious display, not as a centerpiece collectible.
Pros:- Five figures provide more display variety than the lineup’s single-character figures
- Movable joints allow simple posing and small scene arrangements
- Compact size fits desks, shelves, and game-room displays
- PVC construction is suited to display handling
Cons:- Small dimensions limit visible sculpt detail
- The supplied product information does not name the individual animal designs
- No accessories or display base are listed
Best for: Collectors building a compact Halloween shelf display who prefer several poseable horror-themed figures over one large licensed character
Not ideal for: Buyers seeking a specific named horror character or larger figures with intricate sculpt and accessories
- Brand:TZMAPU
- Set size:5 figures
- Material:Polyvinyl chloride (PVC)
- Figure type:Action figure
- Theme:Horror animals
- Articulation:Movable joints
- Dimensions:2 × 1 × 3 inches
- Recommended age:16 years and up
Our verdict“Choose this set for a small, varied horror-animal display, but pick a larger NECA figure if character-specific detail matters more.”
NECA Toony Terrors Nightmare on Elm Street 6″ Scale Stylized Freddy Krueger Action Figure
This 6-inch Freddy Krueger is the lineup’s compact pick for collectors who want a recognizable licensed character without giving a shelf over to a larger figure. Its stylized Toony Terrors look sets it apart from the more classic, detailed presentation of NECA’s 7-inch Frankenstein’s Monster, while its smaller footprint makes it easier to group with other collectibles. The striped outfit and fedora keep the character identifiable despite the cartoon treatment, and the solid-plastic build suits display. The tradeoff is a straightforward package: unlike the Frankenstein or Jason figures, this Freddy has no listed extra accessories for alternate poses or scenes. I’d pick it for a simple character display, but not for collectors who want a broad set of interchangeable parts.
Pros:- Recognizable stylized Freddy design with striped clothing and fedora
- Six-inch height is easier to fit alongside other collectibles
- Officially licensed NECA figure
- Solid plastic construction is suited to display
Cons:- No extra accessories are listed
- Stylized design may not suit collectors who prefer realistic movie sculpts
- Offers less display variation than the accessory-rich Jason figure
Best for: Nightmare on Elm Street fans who want a compact, officially licensed Freddy figure for a crowded shelf or desk
Not ideal for: Collectors seeking multiple accessories, interchangeable parts, or a more elaborate display setup
- Brand:NECA
- Series:Toony Terrors
- Character:Freddy Krueger
- Scale:6-inch
- Height:6 inches
- Material:Plastic
- Item dimensions:4 × 2 × 7 inches
- Model number:39752
Our verdict“Pick this Freddy for a compact licensed character display, and choose NECA’s Jason or Frankenstein if accessories and pose options are a priority.”
NECA Universal Monsters Ultimate Frankenstein’s Monster Color 7-Inch Action Figure
Collectors drawn to classic horror will find Boris Karloff’s Frankenstein’s Monster a more traditional centerpiece than the stylized Toony Terrors Freddy. At 7 inches, it has more shelf presence than that 6-inch figure, and the three interchangeable heads and six hands give it useful display variety without relying on a large scene base. The shackles and daisies add character-specific details that help distinguish it from Jason’s more action-oriented accessory loadout. This is a better fit for collectors who value alternate expressions and a classic color sculpt than for buyers who want extensive articulation details or a large assortment of props. The product is recommended for adults, so it is less suited to younger children, and no manufacturer warranty is listed. I’d rank it highly for a focused Universal Monsters display, with age suitability and package contents in mind.
Pros:- Color sculpt draws on Boris Karloff’s portrayal of the character
- Three interchangeable heads support distinct display expressions
- Six interchangeable hands add posing options
- Shackles and daisies provide character-specific display details
Cons:- Recommended for adults, limiting suitability for younger children
- No manufacturer warranty is listed
- Its accessory selection is less focused on action scenes than Jason’s
Best for: Adult Universal Monsters collectors who want a classic Frankenstein display figure with interchangeable expressions and hands
Not ideal for: Younger children or buyers who prioritize a large action-scene accessory set over alternate heads and hands
- Brand:NECA
- Character:Frankenstein’s Monster
- Scale:7 inches
- Material:Plastic
- Color:Multicolor
- Included accessories:3 interchangeable heads, 6 interchangeable hands, shackles, and daisies
- Item weight:12.64 ounces
- Item dimensions:3 × 2 × 7 inches
Our verdict“Choose Frankenstein for a classic-horror shelf with varied expressions, while Jason is the stronger pick for action-focused posing and props.”
NECA Freddy vs. Jason Ultimate Jason Voorhees 7-Inch Action Figure
Jason is the strongest choice here for collectors who want to change a figure’s look and build small horror scenes. Its over 25 articulation points and three removable masks offer more posing and character variation than the compact Toony Terrors Freddy, while the two machetes, teddy bear, fire effect, and display base add more scene-building options than Frankenstein’s heads-and-hands-focused assortment. The 7-inch scale gives the weathered clothing and hockey-mask look room to read on display. That breadth comes with a practical tradeoff: the many small accessories require storage and careful handling, and this is a more involved setup than a simple shelf figure. Its age recommendation is 13 years and up. I’d choose Jason for an interactive display; collectors seeking a cleaner, lower-clutter presentation may prefer the Frankenstein figure.
Pros:- Over 25 articulation points support a wide range of poses
- Three removable masks allow display variation
- Includes two machetes, a teddy bear, and a fire effect
- Themed display base and collector-friendly window box support display
Cons:- Multiple small accessories need careful storage and handling
- The many display options may be unnecessary for collectors seeking a simple figure
- Recommended for ages 13 years and up
Best for: Horror collectors who enjoy changing masks, posing figures, and arranging accessory-rich movie scenes
Not ideal for: Buyers who want a simple, low-accessory shelf figure or prefer to avoid managing small removable pieces
- Brand:NECA
- Character:Jason Voorhees
- Scale:7 inches
- Material:Plastic
- Articulation:Over 25 points
- Included accessories:3 removable masks, 2 machetes, teddy bear, fire effect, and display base
- Age recommendation:13 years and up
- Dimensions:2 × 1 × 7 inches
Our verdict“Pick Jason for the lineup’s most scene-ready display, but choose Frankenstein if you want a classic monster with fewer loose accessories.”
NECA Elvira 8″ Clothed Action Figure – Red, Fright, and Boo
Elvira fills a different Halloween collecting niche from the lineup’s slasher and classic-monster figures: this is a character-focused display piece built around fabric clothing and accessories. At 8 inches, she stands taller than NECA’s 6-inch Freddy and 7-inch Frankenstein, while the sparkling red dress gives the shelf a more colorful, theatrical focal point. Full articulation, an alternate winking head, a skull-and-snake candle holder, a chalice, and a stand provide more presentation options than Freddy’s figure-only package. The fabric outfit is the key distinction, though it may call for more careful display than molded clothing, and small accessories can be easy to misplace or fragile. I’d choose Elvira for collectors who value costume texture and a polished character display, not those seeking the compact footprint or familiar monster subject matter of the other picks.
Pros:- Fabric dress adds texture distinct from the molded costumes on other figures
- Fully articulated for varied display poses
- Alternate winking head offers a change in expression
- Includes a themed candle holder, chalice, and display stand
Cons:- Small accessories can be fragile or easy to misplace
- Fabric clothing may require more careful display than molded outfits
- Articulation may be limited compared with larger figures
Best for: Elvira fans and adult collectors seeking a taller character display with fabric clothing and several themed accessories
Not ideal for: Collectors who prefer compact figures, molded outfits, or accessories that are less prone to getting lost
- Brand:NECA
- Character:Elvira
- Item type:8-inch clothed action figure
- Material:Plastic
- Clothing:Fabric dress
- Included accessories:Alternate winking head, skull and snake candle holder, chalice, and display stand
- Age range:Adult (17+ years)
- Dimensions:3 × 1 × 8 inches
Our verdict“Choose Elvira for a taller, costume-led display with themed accessories; opt for Freddy if shelf space and a simple setup matter more.”
McFarlane Toys The Walking Dead Gas Mask Zombie 5in Action Figure
For collectors who want a horror figure they can pose rather than a static miniature, this 5-inch zombie offers a useful middle ground. Its 20 articulation points support more varied stances than the Trick Or Treat Studios Halloween 2007 Michael Myers, whose listed feature set centers on an interchangeable arm rather than broad articulation. The removable gas mask adds a small display reveal, exposing the skull beneath, while the Walking Dead bookmark gives fans an extra themed collectible.
The tradeoff is scale: at five inches, it has less shelf presence than the 7-inch NECA Ultimate Michael Myers, and its smaller size may be less satisfying for hands-on play. I’d choose it for poseable character displays or a Walking Dead collection, but not as a centerpiece-sized horror icon.
Pros:- 20 articulation points allow a range of display poses
- Removable gas mask reveals a detailed skull
- Includes a Walking Dead-themed bookmark
- Compact size fits smaller horror displays
Cons:- Five-inch scale has less shelf presence than the 7-inch NECA figures
- Small size may limit appeal for younger children’s play
- No warranty is listed in the product information
Best for: Walking Dead collectors who want a compact figure with enough articulation for varied shelf poses.
Not ideal for: Collectors seeking a large centerpiece or younger children looking for a bigger, more play-focused figure.
- Brand:McFarlane Toys
- Height:5 inches
- Articulation:20 points
- Age range:12+ years
- Material:Plastic; bookmark is paper
- Included accessories:Removable gas mask and Walking Dead bookmark
- Weight:4.16 ounces
Our verdict“Choose this figure for a compact, poseable Walking Dead display piece; pick a larger NECA figure for more shelf presence.”
The Noble Collection Bendable It Pennywise
This Pennywise stands apart from the lineup by offering bendable posing in a taller, 7.5-inch format. The included red balloon supplies a familiar visual cue, and the officially licensed character makes it a focused choice for IT fans who want a recognizable display figure without a large accessory assortment. Compared with the McFarlane Walking Dead Gas Mask Zombie, it is taller and built around flexible posing rather than 20 discrete articulation points.
That distinction also limits its appeal: the listing frames it for indoor display and ages 17+, not active play, and it does not offer the multiple heads and props included with NECA Ultimate Michael Myers. I’d pick Pennywise for a simple character-specific shelf setup; collectors wanting interchangeable parts or a more elaborate accessory display should look to NECA instead.
Pros:- Bendable construction supports flexible display poses
- 7.5-inch size gives it more height than the 5-inch Walking Dead zombie
- Includes a red balloon accessory
- Officially licensed Pennywise character
Cons:- Designed for display rather than active play
- Age guidance is 17 and up
- Offers fewer listed display accessories than NECA Ultimate Michael Myers
Best for: IT fans aged 17 and up who want a taller, flexible Pennywise figure with a recognizable balloon accessory.
Not ideal for: Collectors who want interchangeable parts, a broad accessory set, or a figure for children’s active play.
- Brand:The Noble Collection
- Height:Approximately 7.5 inches
- Material:Plastic
- Weight:6.56 ounces
- Dimensions:3.74 x 1.61 x 6.89 inches
- Subject:Pennywise
- Included accessory:Red balloon
- Age range:17+
Our verdict“Pick this Pennywise for flexible, character-focused display, but choose NECA Ultimate Michael Myers if accessories matter more.”
10PCS Horror Movie Action Figures Mini Scary Anime Set for Decor and Collectibles
This set is the lineup’s strongest pick for filling a small Halloween scene: it supplies 10 resin figures with bases, rather than asking buyers to build a display around one character. At roughly 1.77 x 1.97 inches, the figures suit tabletops, party decor, or a compact shelf arrangement. That makes the set a different proposition from the individually focused Noble Collection Pennywise or NECA Ultimate Michael Myers, both of which give one character more space and attention.
The main compromise is scale and specificity. These miniatures won’t deliver the articulation or character-focused presentation of the larger action figures, and the horror-anime theme may not match every movie-franchise collection. The supplied age details also conflict, so I’d treat this as decor for adult collectors rather than a children’s toy. Choose it for quantity and scene-building; skip it if you want one prominent, clearly specified character figure.
Pros:- Ten figures provide more pieces for a themed display than single-figure options
- Small footprint suits tabletops and limited shelf space
- Bases support stable display
- Resin construction is described as resistant to sun and wind
Cons:- Miniature size limits individual shelf presence
- Horror-anime theme may not fit movie-specific collections
- Age information in the supplied data is inconsistent
Best for: Halloween hosts and horror collectors who want multiple small, based figures for a tabletop or compact spooky display.
Not ideal for: Collectors seeking articulated, larger-scale figures or a specific movie character; the supplied age guidance is inconsistent.
- Material:Resin
- Quantity:10 figures
- Approximate size:1.77 x 1.97 inches
- Weight:0.14 kg
- Collection name:Horror Anime
- Display feature:Stable bases
- Appearance:Realistic horror-themed designs
Our verdict“Choose this set to populate a small Halloween scene, not to add a large, articulated centerpiece to a horror collection.”
NECA Halloween H20 7-Inch Action Figure – Ultimate Michael Myers
This is the most flexible choice here for collectors building a Halloween H20 display: its 7-inch articulated figure comes with interchangeable masked heads and hands, plus a fire axe, kitchen knives, an ice skate, and a pumpkin. That assortment gives buyers several ways to vary the shelf presentation, unlike the Trick Or Treat Studios Halloween 2007 Michael Myers, which lists an interchangeable knife-holding arm but fewer accessories. The opening-front window box also lets collectors display the figure in its packaging while keeping the figure visible.
The tradeoff is that the package is still a single character, and the product information notes that articulation may fall short of higher-end premium figures. At 7 inches, it also shares shelf space with other figures rather than dominating it like the roughly 9-inch Trick Or Treat Studios option. I’d choose this for H20 fans who value display variations and props over maximum size.
Pros:- Interchangeable masked heads and hands support display changes
- Includes a varied set of movie-themed props
- Seven-inch articulated scale fits common horror figure displays
- Window box has an opening front flap for collector display
Cons:- Contains one character only
- Articulation may not satisfy collectors seeking higher-end posing range
- Smaller than the roughly 9-inch Trick Or Treat Studios Michael Myers
Best for: Halloween H20 fans who want a 7-inch Michael Myers with several interchangeable parts and movie-themed props.
Not ideal for: Collectors prioritizing a larger figure or premium-level articulation, or those wanting multiple characters in one package.
- Brand:NECA
- Character scale:7-inch
- Height:7 inches
- Age range:17 years and up
- Included accessories:Interchangeable masked heads, hands, fire axe, kitchen knives, ice skate, and pumpkin
- Packaging:Collector-friendly window box with opening front flap
- Model number:60654
Our verdict“Choose this for the broadest Michael Myers accessory selection in this batch, unless you prefer a taller figure or more advanced articulation.”
Trick Or Treat Studios Scream Greats Michael Myers 9-Inch Action Figure (Halloween 2007)
Collectors who want a larger Michael Myers silhouette may prefer this roughly 9-inch figure over NECA’s 7-inch Halloween H20 version. Its sculpt represents the Halloween (2007) incarnation, so the choice is not only about height: it also suits fans targeting that film’s specific design. A knife-holding interchangeable right arm provides a focused display change, while the backer-card packaging keeps the figure presented on its card rather than in a window box.
The size comes with a clear compromise. The listed articulation is limited to the interchangeable arm, so it is less suited to dynamic posing than the 20-point McFarlane Walking Dead zombie or the articulated NECA Myers. It also has fewer accessories than NECA’s H20 figure, which includes multiple heads, hands, and props. I’d choose this for a taller, film-specific shelf display, not for pose variety or accessory-rich customization.
Pros:- Roughly 9-inch height gives it more shelf presence than NECA’s 7-inch H20 figure
- Officially licensed Halloween (2007) character design
- Interchangeable knife-holding right arm changes the display
- Plastic construction suits tabletop or shelf display
Cons:- Limited articulation compared with the McFarlane zombie and NECA H20 figure
- Fewer listed accessories than NECA Ultimate Michael Myers
- Backer-card blister packaging lacks an opening window box
Best for: Halloween (2007) fans who want a taller Michael Myers figure for a shelf or tabletop display.
Not ideal for: Collectors who prioritize extensive articulation, multiple accessories, or collector-friendly window-box packaging.
- Brand:Trick Or Treat Studios
- Film version:Halloween (2007)
- Scale:8-inch scale
- Approximate height:9 inches
- Material:Plastic
- Weight:1.5 pounds
- Included feature:Interchangeable right arm holding a knife
- Packaging:Backer card with plastic blister
Our verdict“Pick this for a taller Halloween (2007) Michael Myers display, but choose NECA H20 for more posing options and props.”
NECA Halloween: Resurrection Ultimate Michael Myers 7-Inch Action Figure
I’d choose this Resurrection-based Michael Myers for a display built around specific film moments rather than a simple masked-slasher lineup. Its camera and tripod, doll, several knives, and burned mask head give it a scene-specific character that the Halloween 6 Ultimate Michael Myers, with its runes, candles, and Strode Realty sign, approaches from a different story angle. Fully articulated joints and interchangeable hands offer room to vary the poses, while the opening-flap box suits collectors who want to inspect the figure without abandoning its packaging. The tradeoff is that the themed accessories and alternate head reward careful handling and storage; this is less straightforward than the compact Funko Pop! Ghostface if shelf space or easy display is the priority. Its listed 17+ age recommendation also makes it an adult-collector pick, not a general Halloween toy.
Pros:- Fully articulated body supports varied poses
- Burned mask head and film-themed accessories help distinguish it from other Michael Myers figures
- Includes several knives, a camera with tripod, and a doll
- Window box has an opening flap for collector display
Cons:- Recommended for ages 17 and up, limiting its suitability as a general play figure
- Multiple small accessories require careful storage
- The Resurrection-specific theme may be less appealing to collectors focused on other Halloween films
Best for: Adult Halloween collectors who want Resurrection-specific accessories and multiple display poses for a Michael Myers shelf
Not ideal for: Younger children or collectors seeking a compact, uncomplicated shelf figure; it is recommended for ages 17 and up and has several small accessories
- Brand:NECA
- Character:Michael Myers
- Film:Halloween: Resurrection
- Scale:7-inch
- Articulation:Fully articulated
- Included accessories:Interchangeable hands, burned mask head, kitchen knives, serrated knife, broken knife, camera on tripod, and doll
- Recommended age:17 years and up
- Model number:60655
Our verdict“Pick this for an adult display that benefits from Resurrection-specific props and pose options, not for a simple or child-focused figure.”
Star Wars The Black Series Clone Trooper Halloween Edition with Porg
This is my pick for collectors who want Halloween styling without adding another masked movie killer to the shelf. The skeleton-inspired Clone Trooper and vampire-themed Porg make it a playful crossover, while the ghost-and-chocolate-bar-style beskar chest accessory gives the set a distinctly seasonal touch. Unlike the NECA Halloween: Resurrection Michael Myers, which leans into film props and a more adult-oriented horror display, this set is listed for ages 4 and up and better suited to shared play and display. It includes two figures, so it offers more character variety in one package than the single-figure Funko Pop! Ghostface. The limitation is its narrower appeal: Star Wars fans may enjoy the mash-up, but collectors seeking faithful Halloween film characters may prefer the Halloween 6 Michael Myers or Ghostface instead.
Pros:- Includes both a Clone Trooper and a vampire-themed Porg
- Skeleton-inspired decoration gives the Trooper a clear Halloween identity
- Ghost and chocolate-bar-style beskar chest accessory adds seasonal detail
- Multiple articulation points support posing and play
Cons:- The Halloween design may have less appeal outside seasonal or crossover collections
- Additional figures are sold separately
- Its Star Wars theme makes it a less direct fit for a classic horror-figure lineup
Best for: Star Wars fans, especially families or younger collectors seeking a Halloween-themed set for both play and display
Not ideal for: Horror-film collectors looking for a character from a Halloween movie, or buyers who want a traditional, non-seasonal Clone Trooper
- Brand:Star Wars
- Series:The Black Series
- Character:Clone Trooper
- Edition:Halloween Edition
- Scale:6 inches
- Included components:Two figures and one accessory
- Age range:4 years and up
- Manufacturer:Hasbro
- Model number:F5608
Our verdict“Choose this set for an age-accessible Star Wars Halloween crossover, but pass if your shelf is reserved for horror-film characters.”
Funko Pop! Movies Ghostface Vinyl Figure
For a small Halloween display, I’d favor this 3.85-inch Ghostface over the larger, accessory-heavy NECA figures. Its vinyl construction and compact footprint make it an easy fit for a desk, narrow shelf, or a broader Funko Pop! collection, and the recognizable Scream character carries the horror theme without taking up much room. That simplicity is also the main compromise: unlike the Halloween: Resurrection Ultimate Michael Myers, Ghostface has no listed interchangeable parts, accessories, or articulation, so it offers less scope for posing or recreating a scene. The figure is best understood as a static display collectible, not a small action figure with play features. I’d skip it if you want film-specific props or a more interactive presentation, but it makes sense when space and character recognition matter most.
Pros:- Approximately 3.85 inches tall for compact display
- Vinyl construction suits a simple shelf or desk collectible
- Recognizable Ghostface character ties it directly to the Scream franchise
Cons:- No accessories or interchangeable parts are listed
- No articulation is listed, limiting pose variety
- A single compact figure offers less scene-building value than the larger NECA sets
Best for: Scream fans and Funko collectors who need a compact Ghostface display piece for a desk or crowded shelf
Not ideal for: Collectors who want articulated posing, interchangeable parts, or accessories like those included with NECA’s Michael Myers figures
- Brand:Funko
- Collection:Pop! Movies
- Character:Ghostface
- Material:Vinyl
- Height:Approximately 3.85 inches
- Item dimensions:4.5 x 3.5 x 6.5 inches
- Weight:123 g
- Pieces:1
- Model number:80696
Our verdict“Choose this Ghostface for a small, straightforward Scream display, not for action posing or accessory-rich collecting.”
Halloween 6: Curse of Michael Myers 7″ Scale Action Figure – Ultimate Michael Myers
I’d rank this as the strongest choice here for collectors who want to build a detailed Halloween movie display. The Halloween 6 sculpt comes with interchangeable heads, mask, and hands, plus an unusually broad prop selection: an axe, machete, crowbar, knives, runes, candles, syringes, pumpkin, and Strode Realty sign. Those story-linked pieces give it more display variety than the Resurrection figure, whose camera, doll, and burned mask point to a narrower set of scenes. Both are 7-inch NECA figures with collector-friendly window packaging, but this one asks for more organization: its many small accessories can be easy to misplace. The extensive set may also be unnecessary for buyers who want one clean, ready-to-shelf figure. For an adult collector who enjoys arranging alternate looks and props, though, the breadth is the main draw.
Pros:- Interchangeable heads, mask, and hands offer display variety
- Extensive selection of film-themed accessories supports scene-building
- Detailed sculpt is based on Michael Myers from Halloween 6
- Collector-friendly window box has an opening front flap
Cons:- Numerous small accessories can be difficult to store and keep together
- The large accessory selection may go unused by collectors who display only one pose
- The listed age range is 15 years and up
Best for: Halloween franchise collectors who want multiple film-specific props and alternate looks for a detailed display
Not ideal for: Collectors who prefer a minimal setup, have limited accessory storage, or want a simple figure without many loose parts
- Brand:NECA
- Film:Halloween 6: Curse of Michael Myers
- Scale:7-inch
- Weight:200 g
- Material:Plastic
- Age range:15 years and up
- Item dimensions:2 x 2 x 7 inches
- Manufacturer part number:60625
Our verdict“Choose this Halloween 6 figure if you want the broadest prop-based display options; skip it if loose accessories are more hassle than value.”
The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (1974) Leatherface 5″ Action Figure
This Leatherface is my pick for collectors who want a figure tied to a landmark horror film but don’t need the articulation or prop range of a larger NECA release. Its vinyl apron and detachable chainsaw establish the 1974 look, while the squeeze-activated chainsaw gives it a play feature absent from the static Funko Pop! Ghostface. At 5 inches, it also occupies less display space than the 7-inch Halloween 6 Michael Myers, though that smaller format comes with limited articulation and fewer posing possibilities. The product data lists a 1:6 scale alongside 5-inch figure sizing, so collectors who match pieces by exact scale should check their display plans rather than assume it will align with other figures. Made for adult horror collectors, it is a character-specific keepsake, not a versatile general-purpose action figure.
Pros:- Officially licensed from The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (1974)
- Squeeze-activated chainsaw adds an interactive feature
- Includes a realistic vinyl apron and detachable chainsaw
- Compact 5-inch figure size takes less shelf space than the 7-inch Michael Myers options
Cons:- Limited articulation restricts posing compared with the NECA Michael Myers figures
- The 5-inch size may feel small in a larger horror display
- Listed for adult collectors because of its horror theme
Best for: Adult Texas Chainsaw Massacre fans seeking a compact Leatherface collectible with an interactive chainsaw feature
Not ideal for: Collectors building highly articulated, precisely scale-matched displays, or buyers seeking a figure suited to young children
- Brand:Trick or Treat Studios
- Film:The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (1974)
- Character:Leatherface
- Figure height:5 inches
- Scale:1:6
- Material:Plastic
- Included accessories:Vinyl apron and detachable chainsaw
- Age range:Adult
- Model number:TTRL150
Our verdict“Pick Leatherface for a compact, film-specific collectible with a chainsaw action feature, but not for highly poseable or scale-uniform displays.”
How We Picked
I compared these Halloween collectible action figures by how clearly each pick serves a collector’s purpose: recognizable character or theme, stated scale and format, suitability for display, and how well it fits a focused horror or Halloween collection. Licensed, character-specific figures received an advantage when the named film or character gives buyers a clear reason to choose that version. I also weighed multipacks and compact formats for the different value they offer: a broader display or easier shelf fit, rather than the detail and presence of a larger individual figure.
The ranking reflects those tradeoffs, not a claim that every buyer wants the same kind of collection. NECA’s Ultimate Michael Myers from H20 takes the leading position for its familiar horror character and collector-oriented format; Frankenstein’s Monster and Jason Voorhees follow as strong single-figure display choices. Multipacks, stylized figures, bendable designs, and crossover collectibles rank for their narrower use cases, since they may be less suited to a screen-specific or realism-focused collection.

Factors to Consider When Choosing Halloween Collectible Action Figures
Before choosing a figure, I’d match the purchase to the job it needs to do: anchor a horror shelf, add a character from a specific movie, fill a small space, or create a group display. These broader checks can prevent a mismatch that product names alone won’t catch.
Choose the Character Version, Not Just the Character
Franchises often have multiple screen appearances, and the costume, mask, or overall design can change between films. That matters most when you’re building a movie-specific shelf or matching a figure with posters and other collectibles. Check the film subtitle and edition details before buying instead of assuming every Michael Myers or Freddy figure depicts the same look. A familiar character with the wrong film design may feel out of place beside a carefully matched collection. If you’re less concerned with exact screen versions, prioritize the character and pose that appeal to you.
Plan Around Scale and Shelf Space
A figure’s stated height is only part of its shelf footprint: pose, accessories, and packaging can also affect how much room it needs. Before ordering, measure the available height and depth, especially if the figure will sit in a cabinet or beside other collectibles. Mixing 5-inch, 7-inch, 8-inch, and 9-inch figures can create an intentionally varied display, but it can also make a lineup look uneven. Decide whether consistency or character variety matters more to you. For a small shelf, compact figures and vinyl formats may be easier to arrange, while a larger figure can make a stronger single focal point.
Decide Whether You Want a Centerpiece or a Group
A single figure concentrates attention on one character, while a multipack can quickly fill a Halloween scene with variety. The tradeoff is usually breadth versus individual presence: several small figures may cover more themes but can have less impact as a standalone display. Think about whether you already own a collection that needs one missing character or are starting with an empty shelf. For a first purchase, one recognizable centerpiece can establish a clear direction; for a seasonal tabletop scene, a set may make more sense. Avoid buying a multipack solely for its piece count if only a few designs fit your collection.
Match the Format to How You Display
Not every collectible is designed to deliver the same visual effect. A detailed action figure, stylized cartoon design, bendable character, and vinyl figure each create a different tone, even when they depict horror icons. A stylized or simplified format can work well in a playful Halloween display, but may not suit a shelf built around realistic movie designs. Bendable figures offer pose flexibility, while a more rigid display piece may better fit a fixed arrangement. Choose based on the look and interaction you want rather than treating all formats as equivalent.
Check What the Listing Actually Includes
Product names can highlight a character or edition without telling you everything about the package. Look for clear information about accessories, included companions, packaging, and whether the listing is for one figure or a set. This is especially useful when comparing a figure with a named accessory or companion, such as the Halloween-themed Clone Trooper with a Porg. Don’t assume that an “ultimate” label guarantees the same contents across different releases or franchises. If accessories matter to your display, verify the included items and product images before deciding.
Spend More Only When the Detail Matters to You
A larger, character-specific collectible makes the most sense when its film look, sculpt, or place in your collection matters more than owning several figures at once. Buyers decorating for one season may get more practical coverage from compact figures or a multipack. Collectors building a franchise shelf may prefer fewer, more deliberate selections that match a chosen movie or scale. Decide what would make you regret the purchase: missing detail, limited space, or too few characters. That answer is a better guide to your spending than the assumption that the biggest figure is always the best choice.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which figure should I choose if I only want one Halloween horror centerpiece?
I’d start with NECA Ultimate Michael Myers from Halloween H20 if you want a recognizable slasher character in a collector-focused format. Choose Frankenstein’s Monster instead if your display leans toward classic Universal Monsters, or Jason Voorhees if Friday the 13th is the collection’s main theme. The strongest choice is the character that matches the rest of your shelf, not simply the most famous name. Check the listed scale and available display space before committing to a centerpiece.
How do I pick between the different Michael Myers figures?
Use the film title as your first filter: the H20, Resurrection, Halloween 6, and 2007 movie figures represent different releases and should not be treated as identical versions. If your collection is organized by film, select the version that matches your shelf’s movie. If you are choosing by character alone, compare the stated scale and figure format, then pick the look you prefer. This approach helps avoid buying a second figure that feels too similar to one you already own.
Are the multipacks a better choice than one larger figure?
A multipack can suit a seasonal scene or a collection that needs several characters at once, but it may not offer the same presence as a larger individual figure. A single licensed figure is usually a more focused choice when you want a specific movie character to anchor a shelf. Think about the display you are filling and whether variety or detail matters more. If some figures in a set do not fit your theme, the extra pieces may not add much value for your collection.
Can I mix the different figure sizes in one display?
Yes, though a lineup of 5-inch, 6-inch, 7-inch, 8-inch, and 9-inch figures will have a visibly mixed scale. You can make that look deliberate by grouping figures by franchise, format, or display height rather than lining every character up as if they share a common scale. Leave extra room for larger poses and any included companions. If a uniform shelf matters to you, prioritize stated scale over character alone and check dimensions before purchasing.
Which options work best for someone starting a Halloween figure collection?
For a beginner, I’d choose one character or franchise you already enjoy and buy a single figure that fits the space you have. The NECA Ultimate Michael Myers H20 figure is a clear starting point for slasher fans, while Frankenstein’s Monster offers a classic monster direction. A compact vinyl or mini set may suit a smaller shelf or a more casual seasonal display. Avoid starting with several versions of the same character until you know whether you care most about film accuracy, scale, or character variety.
Conclusion
My best overall pick is NECA Ultimate Michael Myers from Halloween H20 for buyers who want a recognizable slasher centerpiece with a collector-oriented presentation. For a best value-style group display, the 10-piece horror mini set or TZMAPU five-pack makes more sense when variety matters more than a single figure’s scale and detail. I’d choose NECA Universal Monsters Ultimate Frankenstein’s Monster as the premium-leaning display pick for a classic monster shelf, and the compact Ghostface vinyl or a mini set as beginner-friendly options for buyers with limited space. For a specific need, pick the film-matched Michael Myers release, the Jason Voorhees figure for a Friday the 13th shelf, or the Clone Trooper Halloween Edition for a crossover collection. Match the figure to your theme, available space, and preferred format, and the right choice becomes much clearer.
