Let’s review the Archie stump wrestling turtles from NECA!! TMNT!! Also my Roddy Piper sounds like Gilbert Godfried Also, get yer Flip-ors here - flipor.backerk...
Definitely should have come with alternate heads. Or at least gave Donatello an expression other than "watching someone back into your car in a Walmart parking lot" expression.
I'm calling it now - when they go wide release, they'll do like they did with the Lawson Turtles and do individually packaged Turtles, with more accessories, but also throw in an alternate head for each with them. But maybe they'll throw some in as part of an accessory pack instead!
Hey my neighbor called me at work, said the guy down the street is spreading the word that Hatter has a review that he didn’t have time to put on the pants. I said ‘GTFO No pants’? , and then my wife, who heard down at the hair salon, says all the ladies are talking about No-Pants-Hatter and this epic TMNT ‘cannot wait to review’ …review! So, I says, to the ppl, shops closed, Hatter did an unannounced review drop, even Hatter didn’t have no time to throw on the pants! Some one says, did Hatter go shopping w/no pants? I says, I dunno, he’s a wildcard… something must’ve happened for hims to do a review to not even put on the pants. Tony two-muffins says ‘My dog wears pants’. ‘So Why didn’t Hatter’? Everyone had questions. Sure enough. The whole town was right. Hatter is sprouting his knees and a 4-pack TMNT… can’t wait to discuss at the water cooler tomorrow. Ty Mr. H

The accessory situation will probably feel better the more pro wrestling aliens they release. The set is lacking on them, but I feel like by the end of this, I'm going to have a giant galactic fight display.
I'd love to get my hands on those turtles, but I don't live in the US, so I will have to wait and see if they show up in the neca store. I have two theories as to why these don't come with additional heads. 1) They are not expecting it to sell well, so they saved some money. 2) They are already planning to sell the "ultimate" wrestling individual turtles.
These costumes originally were to be the outfits that Eastman and Laird were going to re-design and make them their normal appearances, but they changed their mind.
Who needs pants, sheesh... thanks for the review. I waited to watch any reviews on these until it came from you or johnny lol. As a kid just assumed Donnie was trying to look like 80's hulk hogan.
I've got 7 or 8 boxed sets. They used to cost $120 now they're $150. However each set comes with less accs than the previous one. I like this wrestling set but don't feel it's worth it. Great review as usual.
The reason for the different colours is the wrestling designs actually predate the Turtles getting coloured headbands, they just weren't used until after (really, this is what happened, they were designed by Eastman & Laird). The references in the crowd are mostly in the rows with the mammoth man (Manmoth) and the classic grey alien (The Sons of Silence), I won't spoil 'em for eveyrone. And yeah I wish they came with extra heads too (but at least they gave Symbiote Raph the head he needed), my conspiracy theory is that the pack ended up being more expensive than they thought and they cut the extra heads and they'll show up in some Archie accessory pack (which better include Headrush).
Donatello even wore this outfit in a flashforward Mirage story. Another fun fact: the interior of the wrestling issue was drawn by Jim Lawson. These are based more on the cover and the second wrestling issue. Lawson did a fair number of Adventures issues and you could honestly reuse the bodies. Another fun fact: Lawson created Rat King. Rat King never appeared in color in Mirage. None of his appearances to my knowledge were colorized until IDW. IDW used two references for Rat King's color scheme: a Lawson drawn issue of Adventures and a merch guide from Mirage used mainly for stickers and greeting cards. The Rat King figure out now uses the Archie colors (that IDW used for Mirage) and his alternate head looks to me like how Lawson drew him at Archie. (Technically, Rat King's first cover appearance was color and he was briefly in City at War, that I think got colorized? But they were colored in a dramatic way where you couldn't tell what the actual colors are, I think.)
@@pmgerard Fun facts on top of fun facts on top of fun facts: Mitchroney drew the Wrestling Turtles in the following issue (issue 8) BUT you've hit on a problem I (maybe prematurely) have with the Archie line - Mitchroney drew a very small amount of the series (most of it was by Chris Allan for those wondering, Allan drew the second wrestling issue). You're misremembering Tales 4 where the Rat King appears front and centre coloured in moldy brown without any dramatic lighting to speak of (other than shading) but you're right about his CIty of War cover (Issue 55) it's basically a silouette.🙂 There are however a few characters that were only colourized by IDW, Kirby for instance.
@@dwitefry4157 I guess my interpretation of Tales 4 is that it's a watercolor equivalent to making a whole crowd blue or purple in an old comic. Regardless, I think people may end up wanting two Rat Kings when they realize this figure doubles as Archie. (And the character is minor/sporadic enough in Archie, appearing in something like 2-3 issues and a profile page, that this might be all we get.) Also, that Tales issue has him as a homeless guy and City at War has him as an otherworldly god and Archie (which could be the same guy, ala Renet or Cudley) gives his origin as a homeless guy becoming a god, the only place that provides a link between his Tales usage at Mirage and his appearances written by Laird in the main book.

@@pmgerard I totally get what you mean with Tales 4 (I don't agree obvously). I'd imagine we'll end up getting four Rat Kings related to this new figure if Neca can sell 'em - IDW colours Rat King, Mirage colours Rat King, Archie Rat King and posssibly Tournament Fighters Rat King but yeah I wouldn't be surprised if we see people buying multiples. Also I will say that he does die in Tales 4, so his transition to otherwordly thing in City at War isn't completely bonkers.
Daaaang, you're getting everything! I can't even find Tatsu lol Edit- I need a Shawn (Sean?) in my life. 😂 Edit #2- That flex was bigger than the muscles on that roided out Ace Duck haha
These look so awesome. NECA really put some effort in on these, I’m here for that. Johnny release junk fortunately didn’t have a say about this one. Remember when turtles in disguise was $124.99? They really cut back on accessories 😅
The lack of alternative heads is a real bummer, but these still look incredible and are representations of the figures I never thought we would get so I'm gonna have to grab a set. Regarding the lack of accessories, I think they used this set to justify the new tooling and molds for Archie Turtles and that the inevitable four pack of them in more standard outfits will have all of the accessories we have come to expect from the multipack turtles. While I'm happy the cross sell confirms an El Mysterio figure is in the works, I'm still busy waiting and wanting them to do a Ninjara figure and perhaps most importantly an April as the fifth turtle from TMNT Adventures Special #11
Same. I (foolishly) went yesterday looking for a set. In my state? LMAO. Wanted to go to a different target, because there's only 2 stores on my side if the state. Idk how many are on the other side, I dont travel that way. They need to hit my state already.
Beard dude on insert is that puppet Pizza Club Mikey came with, but no one knows who it's meant to be😂 The ring will be the accessory pack. There's one from epic hacks that has a storage drawer. That'd be the best way to go but just maybe not for our wallets
I’m glad to see you are into the wwe superstars line as well 😎 I’m not gonna get this set, but they look really fun and I LOVE the colors. The Raph especially is a beaut.
Pants are for chumps! So are $150 Neca 4-packs with no alt heads. I'm not judging, though...I bought the Pizza Club turtles instead of the much sweeter deal that was the Turtles in Disguise set because, well...I'm a chump, I guess. Honestly, these look great I didn't have many of the TMNT Archie comics as a kid but I did have that first Stump wrestling issue and I thought symbiote Raph was sick. I hope they release these as ultimates so I can pick up Raph. Update: I caved and bought these. My chumpness is even further confirmed. They're amazing though. Might be my favorite set of turtles...until they come up with the regular Archie turtles. It never ends.
Yea I hope I can find this set.. plus belly bomb hes def going with these guys and leather head and crying hound .. with ace the duck they have some formidable opponents
I grew up with the Archie comics, specifically this story arc.. that being said, I'm planning to pass on this as I've just been overwhelmed with Turtles purchases lately. If they ever break these up, I will definitely buy that Raphael.
Isn’t that bearded dude on the background card the puppet that came with pizza club Mikey? I feel like he’s some super deep Easter egg no ones figured out yet
Hatter, mate, if you get a ring, seriously consider the Mattel Creations Retro ring. The stuff you’ll find at retain often have a sprung ring mat and are kinda useless for display as the surface is unstable. You’re welcome
Finally got my tatsu so now I'm that much closer to having a complete set of movie figures minus the yellow jump suit April and foot soldier Casey and I might be able to get my April movie figure signed by Judith hoag this yr so it's looking up
Neca still with their wonky distribution system. If release date is August 7th, then the stores should have them on the 7th. Don't ship them on the 7th. They should be stocked the night of 6th, so morning of the 7th the stuff is on the shelves. My stores had the haulathon stuff, so why not this....? JFC
Uhm sorry mad hatter not to nit oick just wsjt you to be Accurate ... BuT @ 4:38 that's Taz ZaraBadu from issue 68* Who saved Wingnut in Vietnam...You said issue 67.. he wasn't even in Vietnam Yet psssh
Hatter, It seems you used method acting to make this video, Roddy has no pants (you wearing a kilt😏)you had to become a ritotus scotts man. To be honest I have no Archie TMNT. Its a rabbit hole I am avoiding. They did go and create a fun set and backdrop.✌️
Definitely should have come with alternate heads. Or at least gave Donatello an expression other than "watching someone back into your car in a Walmart parking lot" expression.
Hahahahah this comment made me spit. there will be no way that I won’t be able to call that expression this moving forward
@@madhatterreviews6705 Meanwhile Raph appears to be the one who got stuck dealing with the insurance company over the phone....
I'm calling it now - when they go wide release, they'll do like they did with the Lawson Turtles and do individually packaged Turtles, with more accessories, but also throw in an alternate head for each with them. But maybe they'll throw some in as part of an accessory pack instead!
@@Cowah naah, we don't need all that. MAYBE we will get an accessory set with alt heads and weapons, which is really all we need.
Hey my neighbor called me at work, said the guy down the street is spreading the word that Hatter has a review that he didn’t have time to put on the pants. I said ‘GTFO No pants’? , and then my wife, who heard down at the hair salon, says all the ladies are talking about No-Pants-Hatter and this epic TMNT ‘cannot wait to review’ …review!

Hahaahaahhahahahahahha
I never wear pants. Changed my life
I just love how expressive and cartoony these figures look! Their headsculpts are just so unique
That bearded dude on the backdrop kinda looks like one of those little guy accessories that came with Pizza Club Mikey.

And I'm here for it. 😁
These are going to be the new body molds for the regular cartoon turtles looks like we are going to rebuy them all over again
Gilbert Gottfried as Roddy Piper
😂
I'm Molting!!😸
The four pack is great! I remember reading the Archie comics when I was a kid. I remember it felt so far removed from the cartoon.
The accessory situation will probably feel better the more pro wrestling aliens they release. The set is lacking on them, but I feel like by the end of this, I'm going to have a giant galactic fight display.
I'd love to get my hands on those turtles, but I don't live in the US, so I will have to wait and see if they show up in the neca store.
I have two theories as to why these don't come with additional heads.
1) They are not expecting it to sell well, so they saved some money.
2) They are already planning to sell the "ultimate" wrestling individual turtles.
Or there's gonna be a 60$ accessory pack.
So glad that chair is functional!
Love that they’re going to pinless joints
These costumes originally were to be the outfits that Eastman and Laird were going to re-design and make them their normal appearances, but they changed their mind.
Wyrm was one of my favorites in the Archie comics, wonder if they have plans of making it.
In the UK, thus & the Cowlick comic were the only 2 TMNT comics I had so can't wait for this 4pk & the scale size £3500 Cowlick
Who needs pants, sheesh... thanks for the review. I waited to watch any reviews on these until it came from you or johnny lol. As a kid just assumed Donnie was trying to look like 80's hulk hogan.
I've got 7 or 8 boxed sets. They used to cost $120 now they're $150. However each set comes with less accs than the previous one. I like this wrestling set but don't feel it's worth it. Great review as usual.
It’s all about the game and how you play it!

Hahah ummm I meant to do that!
You woke up and abandoned all bodily functions and made this video happen!!🙌
The reason for the different colours is the wrestling designs actually predate the Turtles getting coloured headbands, they just weren't used until after (really, this is what happened, they were designed by Eastman & Laird).
The references in the crowd are mostly in the rows with the mammoth man (Manmoth) and the classic grey alien (The Sons of Silence), I won't spoil 'em for eveyrone.
And yeah I wish they came with extra heads too (but at least they gave Symbiote Raph the head he needed), my conspiracy theory is that the pack ended up being more expensive than they thought and they cut the extra heads and they'll show up in some Archie accessory pack (which better include Headrush).

that's Taz-zaramado!!! lol
I would have loved alternate face sculpts. Maybe a neutral face for Black Raphael.
I want a stump 4 pack
I too refer to all my drinks as "tasty beverages" thanks to Sam Jackson in Pulp Fiction lol
Pants are for chumps! So are $150 Neca 4-packs with no alt heads. I'm not judging, though...I bought the Pizza Club turtles instead of the much sweeter deal that was the Turtles in Disguise set because, well...I'm a chump, I guess.
Honestly, these look great I didn't have many of the TMNT Archie comics as a kid but I did have that first Stump wrestling issue and I thought symbiote Raph was sick. I hope they release these as ultimates so I can pick up Raph.
Update: I caved and bought these. My chumpness is even further confirmed. They're amazing though. Might be my favorite set of turtles...until they come up with the regular Archie turtles. It never ends.
I believe the correct way is to pronounce it sum-bye-oat.
It has to do with symbiosis of 2 organisms. And that word is pronounces sym-bye-oh-sis. 🤷♂️
Wow nice set. Where did Sean buy this for you? What a great revew.
The lack of accessories makes this pack is not worth the price
there is not many accesories because they are gonna release them individually later with more accesories.
Where can i buy . Or when does it drop
I got the Flair n Hollywood Hogan figures the other day 😂😂😂
Yea I hope I can find this set.. plus belly bomb hes def going with these guys and leather head and crying hound .. with ace the duck they have some formidable opponents
I hope they do Sarnath that is in the backdrop and wheres bloodbath? Any info about the wrestling wolf?
Found out I was wrong real quick... lol
I grew up with the Archie comics, specifically this story arc.. that being said, I'm planning to pass on this as I've just been overwhelmed with Turtles purchases lately. If they ever break these up, I will definitely buy that Raphael.
wanted this so bad until i saw the price. mans gotta eat.
Raph could have had sais he went on to use the suit.
Wish they had alt head expressions
Taz Salbadoo confirmed!
These are also pin less joints!
Isn’t that bearded dude on the background card the puppet that came with pizza club Mikey? I feel like he’s some super deep Easter egg no ones figured out yet
Not your traditional tmnt, but fun! & cool accessories
1:54 Think that Don costume was designed as an alternate for the Mirage comics but never used there.
Ah no way!! Siiiiiiiick
1:15. How the hell do you get your fingers to stay that way! Been trying for hours 😂
Hatter, mate, if you get a ring, seriously consider the Mattel Creations Retro ring. The stuff you’ll find at retain often have a sprung ring mat and are kinda useless for display as the surface is unstable.
You’re welcome
Look excellent👍
Finally got my tatsu so now I'm that much closer to having a complete set of movie figures minus the yellow jump suit April and foot soldier Casey and I might be able to get my April movie figure signed by Judith hoag this yr so it's looking up
Yes, Hatter Pantsless Review!!! Let’s go!!! Sick!!!
Where are you getting all this stuff before it's released? Where is this Sean getting the stuff? That way I can look for it as well
Dude where are you finding all these new neca tmnt figures??
I want to buy a Taz Zarbadu
Rumor is he’s dropping next wave
When is the release date for these?
Neca still with their wonky distribution system. If release date is August 7th, then the stores should have them on the 7th. Don't ship them on the 7th. They should be stocked the night of 6th, so morning of the 7th the stuff is on the shelves. My stores had the haulathon stuff, so why not this....? JFC
Very cool no pants review! 👏🏼👏🏼😂
I'd rather figures come with less stuff and a lower price. I don't need a bunch of extra crap to keep track of that I'll never use.
Wish someone would just randomly send me something like that just because.
Hahaha wasn’t random!
Easy pass for me. All I need is that Archie comics Mondo Gecko 😍
same
Uhm sorry mad hatter not to nit oick just wsjt you to be Accurate ... BuT @ 4:38 that's Taz ZaraBadu from issue 68* Who saved Wingnut in Vietnam...You said issue 67.. he wasn't even in Vietnam Yet psssh
Dammit!!!!
Those are cool but not the original playmates is all i get
Sim-bi-oat....
As great as these are, there should be alternate heads. Archie turtles are too expressive to be limited to only one style.
I’ve never heard it pronounced “sim-bee-eht,” although I’ve heard “sim-by-ote.”
I thought was “sim-bee-ote”
Awesome set...but definitely not worth $150.00 with what it comes with. Yep definitely hope this is not a new trend
It has been a trend for a minute
I have a ring for you 😜😬….and dare I say, it’s version 2.0??? Upgraded! And better! Can’t wait to show you.
I mad at everyone who gets this before me. So I'm mad at you.
But you love me….
Who didn’t have to save wingnut in Vietnam
4:26 min
Is that Jerry Garcia ? 😅
Bro. do you even have anymore room for all these?
Did you see my stop motion of Deadpool Bye Bye
Boxer or Briefs?
Let's start a Kickstarter to get you some pants
Inflation in full effect
I’ve not seen tatsu
Hatter, It seems you used method acting to make this video, Roddy has no pants (you wearing a kilt😏)you had to become a ritotus scotts man. To be honest I have no Archie TMNT. Its a rabbit hole I am avoiding. They did go and create a fun set and backdrop.✌️
First
Nice try. 😉
ya wish they came with alt heads too
Too jealous to watch right now
