NECA: TMNT Cartoon Series

[cmoney]

Hoping for a reissue of the actual turtles sometime. I'm late to the party.

Same. I need Casey, the Turtles, Shredder, Bebop and Rocksteady, and April to consider myself satisfied with my toon acquisitions. So re-issues/re-dos of all of those would be nice.

I am still missing Casey and April as well. I'm surprised, to put it mildly, at how long they're dragging out updating them, or at least re-issuing them, considering they're the most important characters after the turtles, Splinter and Shredder.

NECA should make the transport modules.

I find it ridiculous that the turtles aren't evergreen. They are the hardest to find in a TMNT line where the turtles are the main characters. Every month there ought to be turtle sets clogging shelves.

You mean like Masterverse where He-Man and Skeletor are always there?

The bright colored Haul-a-Thon 4-pack of the brothers did clog the shelves at my local Target for months. I believe they were eventually shipped back to NECA, because it went from like 4-5 4-packs to none overnight. At them time you could buy them at cost or lower on eBay, people couldn't scalp them really.

I can only imagine why they aren't always available is because of their Playmate-Target license deal, and that they need to sit on a limited amount of shelf space in stores that NECA wants to use for other products/new additions to the line. But maybe the exclusivity keeps the line hot, I'm not sure. My prediction is that we'll eventually see Ultimate versions of each brother, around $36 each, with some chase items - like their punk outfits in soft goods. I'd think this would be during the last gasps of the line, and a way to keep it evergreen for a couple more years when new character releases are limited and lackluster.

I think they've been re-releasing the turtles every year, at least the past few years. The disguise 4-pack, which was made available on their website and then on that costumes site. Last year we had the style guide four-pack which shipped in good numbers (I never saw them clogging shelves around me, they hung around a week or two which a re-stock, but always sold out) and I'm guessing they'll get a re-release at some point this year. Maybe as they were, or maybe something all new. They've certainly teased those street clothes look more than once.

I'd plunk down on another set of turtles if they were toy colors.

I'd buy those and Samurai turtles

I'd plunk down on my first set in this line if they were toy colors.

Or just green. Or style-guide green.

Ran into this on Twitter, some guy that has the Lotus and Chakahatchi pack...and also says he's not the one that paid the crazy amount on that one listing...but it's a decent look at the figures unopened:

I just want the dark green ones, I hope they don't keep changing colors with every new release.

God, if I can get the new bodies with all the swappable face options for Donnie & Mikey, in their toy skin colors (dark Leo & bright Raph are already done - see below), I will happily plunk down $36 apiece, and would never need another Turtle* (though I'd welcome a "face accessory pack" with even more expressions for all the colors).



(best shot of my current setup)

*(I'd still buy Archie Turtles, especially if they do Chris Allan ones in addition to Ken Mitchroney...)

[Doofatron]

I bet Veebs will like this!

That artwork is, as always with these ultimate type releases, fantastic! No interest in the portal though.

Anyone else getting a bit antsy for some new NECA TMNT stuff? Seems like forever since we've seen some new releases, at least for the toon stuff. I got the TiD set in december but I'm not really counting that one as a new release. Been keeping an eye on my usual Ali sellers pretty much daily, nothing new...
