Releases Replica Based on the Actual Jacket Worn On-Screen

Hillside, N.J. – October 8 – National Entertainment Collectibles Association (NECA), entertainment conglomerate and global leader in licensed consumer goods, has announced the release of the exclusive Kick-Ass 2 Hit-Girl Prop Replica Leather Jacket. The replica is based on the actual jacket worn by Hit-Girl on-screen in the popular movie, KICK-ASS 2.

Now available to consumers, the exclusive jacket is made of high-quality purple metallic leather with extensive stitched detailing, and is lined in purple satin. The jacket is tailored with princess seams, zip front and invisible wrist zippers for a sleek, close-fitted look. Topstitched black leather patches at elbows and shoulders are padded for vigilante style and protection. The exclusive will be available for $200 on eBay and Amazon, while supplies last.

Kick-Ass, Hit-Girl and Red Mist return for the follow-up to 2010’s irreverent global hit: Kick-Ass 2. After Kick-Ass’ (Aaron Taylor-Johnson) insane bravery inspires a new wave of self-made masked crusaders, led by the badass Colonel Stars and Stripes (Jim Carrey), our hero joins them on patrol. When these amateur superheroes are hunted down by Red Mist (Christopher Mintz-Plasse)—reborn as The Mother F%&*^r—only the blade-wielding Hit-Girl (Chloë Grace Moretz) can prevent their annihilation.

When we last saw junior assassin Hit-Girl and young vigilante Kick-Ass, they were trying to live as normal teenagers Mindy and Dave. With graduation looming and uncertain what to do, Dave decides to start the world’s first superhero team with Mindy. Unfortunately, when Mindy is busted for sneaking out as Hit-Girl, she’s forced to retire—leaving her to navigate the terrifying world of high-school mean girls on her own. With no one left to turn to, Dave joins forces with Justice Forever, run by a born-again ex-mobster named Colonel Stars and Stripes.

Just as they start to make a real difference on the streets, the world’s first super villain, The Mother F%&*^r, assembles his own evil league and puts a plan in motion to make Kick-Ass and Hit-Girl pay for what they did to his dad. But there’s only one problem with his scheme: If you mess with one member of Justice Forever, you mess with them all. http://www.kickass-themovie.com
