Choosing between these action figures comes down to the kind of display you want to build: an art-inspired character centered on Edvard Munch's *The Scream*, or a Contra set built around Bill and Lance's video-game appearance. The figma Munch Scream has the more art-focused concept, while the NECA Contra set brings a character pairing and the lower listed price.
Quick verdict
Pick figma Munch Scream when the appeal is an unusual, artwork-based collectible with a limited-edition designation and multicolor treatment depicting the original artwork colors. Choose Contra Bill & Lance when a Contra-focused shelf and a 7-inch 2-pack are the priority. The listed price difference is $21.01, with Contra Bill & Lance at $129.99 and figma Munch Scream at $151.

Where each action figure wins
figma Munch Scream wins for art-driven collecting. Its concept is directly inspired by *The Scream* by Edvard Munch, rather than a game character or conventional combat figure. The limited-edition, highly detailed, and art-inspired features make it the natural match for a collection that mixes figures with art references or distinctive character interpretations.
Contra Bill & Lance wins for a focused game-display pairing. The title identifies Bill and Lance in their video-game appearance, providing a clear Contra theme. It is also the lower-priced choice in this comparison, and its Adult, Teen age grouping aligns it with a teen or adult action-figure collection.
Product notes
figma Munch Scream Action Figure Limited Edition Collectible Toy New
The figma Munch Scream is the choice for collectors who want an action figure with an explicit connection to a famous artwork. Its limited-edition designation, art-inspired feature, and multicolor design depicting the original artwork colors give it a very specific visual direction. The approximately 5.9-inch height supplies a useful stated scale for planning a display, while the 14+ designation makes its intended audience clear. Its limitation is also part of its appeal: Munch Scream is a specialized art-character concept, not a video-game character pairing. Choose it when the centerpiece of the purchase is the interpretation of *The Scream* in figma form.
Contra Bill & Lance Video Game Appearance 7" Action Figure 2-Pack
Contra Bill & Lance is the stronger fit when the goal is to place those named Contra characters together in a video-game-themed collection. The 7-inch 2-pack format gives the set a clear display identity, and the listed material is mixed materials. Its Adult, Teen age grouping further points it toward collectors looking beyond a child-focused figure. The constraint is thematic specificity: this set is centered on Contra's video-game appearance rather than an artwork-inspired character concept. Choose it for a Contra display or for the appeal of Bill and Lance as a paired action-figure set.
Final choice by use case
- For an art-inspired centerpiece: Choose figma Munch Scream for its *The Scream* inspiration, limited-edition designation, and approximately 5.9-inch scale.
- For a Contra-focused display: Choose Contra Bill & Lance for the named character pairing and 7-inch 2-pack format.
- For the lower listed price: Choose Contra Bill & Lance at USD 129.99 rather than figma Munch Scream at USD 151.00.
