That’s not an issue as why should NECA do anything different with the sculpt for a character that is a literal duplicate of another? It’s just that most companies don’t like to dip into repaints right away with a new line, but if the factory was running behind, it may have made sense to go right from Goliath to Thailog since the same molds are in use, nothing needs to be tested, and the machines don’t need to be refitted with the molds of another. Being a Goliath clone, Thailog is essentially the same figure as Goliath with only minor differences. I don’t know what NECA’s original slot for Thailog was in the grand scheme, but I don’t think he was supposed to be the line’s second release.

Instead, he leap-frogged her, sneaking out to some stores in December with a wider release following in 2022.

It was later in the year that NECA would show off Thailog, the villainous Goliath clone, which seemed to suggest he would follow Demona. NECA had indicated they had multiple figures sculpted and ready to go, and a teaser video following the Goliath announcement depicted the nefarious Demona. It being 2021 though, collectors were forced to be patient as delays seemed to impact the roll out of product. It had been decades since Gargoyles figures occupied real estate at the toy and hobby shops of America and fans of the series were eager to see what NECA had cooking. One of last year’s biggest announcements in the world of action figures was NECA’s acquisition of the Gargoyles license.
