Toy Fair 2014: NECA's Divergent Giftware

We know NECA make excellent 7 inch action figures, and have continuously chosen properties we felt were, for the most part, not given the range of products they deserved. They've played with scale, and in the last year, even bumped up their figure size to 18 inches, providing us with a little high end (but still affordable) awesome. Amid all the prop replicas and latex masks and bobble heads, there is one category that has always left me impressed. Giftware. In a world where companies do battle over who might get the latest and greatest licenses up for grabs, squabbling over scale monopolies and sculptural dominance, NECA had the vision to say "WE'LL TAKE EVERYTHING ELSE!" Key chains, mugs, necklaces, magnets, head phones, clothing, journals, pins, bracelets, knee socks (KNEE SOCKS!!), water bottles, mini figures..the list goes on and on. If it makes sense, NECA will put it out there. The giftware wall at Toy Fair, for whatever the latest movie sensation might be that year, is always a sight to see.

New Eye Candy from Divergent

In a future world where people are divided into distinct factions based on their personalities, Tris Prior is warned she is Divergent and will never fit into any one group.  When she discovers a conspiracy to destroy all Divergents, she must find out what makes being Divergent so dangerous before it's too late.

The synopsis for the book gives a bit more story...
 In Beatrice Prior’s dystopian Chicago world, society is divided into five factions, each dedicated to the cultivation of a particular virtue—Candor (the honest), Abnegation (the selfless), Dauntless (the brave), Amity (the peaceful), and Erudite (the intelligent). On an appointed day of every year, all sixteen-year-olds must select the faction to which they will devote the rest of their lives. For Beatrice, the decision is between staying with her family and being who she really is—she can’t have both. So she makes a choice that surprises everyone, including herself.
