NECA Logo.png

NECA (National Entertainment Collectibles Association) is an American company that manufactures collectible merchandise based on licensed properties such as films, video games, television series, and sports. NECA acquired the license to Godzilla from Warner Bros. in 2014 to coincide with the 2014 American film. While it initially produced merchandise specifically for the 2014 film, NECA has since released figures of many different versions of Godzilla. These detailed, super-articulated figures stand over 6 inches tall, with head-to-tail measurements of over 12 inches long. In 2019, it released figures for the monsters from the 2014 film's sequel, Godzilla: King of the Monsters. NECA's Godzilla line ended on August 2020, as Godzilla vs. Kong toy licensor Playmates wished to avoid competition.[1][2]

Some of NECA's subsidiary companies, such as WizKids (stylized as WiZK!DS) and Kidrobot, released merchandise utilizing the Godzilla license as well.
