Return of the Living Dead – Tarman Figure – NECA Ben Cooper Costume Series #34

It’s Halloween night in the ’80s all over again — and someone’s dressed as Tarman! NECA’s Ben Cooper Costume Series #34 reimagines the oozing ghoul from Return of the Living Dead through the lens of classic vintage Halloween costumes. Instead of dripping slime, this Tarman is a kid in a bright plastic mask and printed smock, looking ready to score some candy and brains.

This figure perfectly captures that charmingly low-budget magic of Ben Cooper’s original costumes — the injection-molded mask with painted details, the shiny vinyl body suit emblazoned with art straight off a movie poster, and a pumpkin-orange cardback that screams “retro Halloween.” It’s creepy, corny, and completely delightful — the perfect mix of horror fandom and pure nostalgia.

Whether you grew up trick-or-treating in one of these costumes or just appreciate their kitschy legacy, NECA’s Tarman from the Ben Cooper line is a ghoulishly fun tribute to Halloween past.
