My SDCC turtles and Keno showed up yesterday. Everything is great. These are probably the first NECA turtles I’ve gotten that didn’t need boiling or oiling to get them moving. The accessories are great and the articulation is a fair bit better than I expected given all of the extra sculpted bits on them. Great job, NECA! And, FWIW, I really like the TMNT III movie. I didn’t even see it until I was an adult. I assumed it sucked all these years due to the poor fan reception, but I found it enjoyable. Anyone who hasn’t seen it ought to give it a chance.
Figures and accessories look real good.👀 I really enjoyed all 3 90s films and know that Kevin Eastman prefers 3 over 2 . I was pleasantly surprised to meet a bunch of fans of 3 throughout my years as a TMNT fan actually. I mainly only collect figures from movies and shows that meant the most to me because of shelf space but the more folks purchase everything the more we get 🤔.👍 I do want Paige Turco April from 2 and 3( her hair looks like the 87 version the most in 3 and I dug it). Casey from 3 would be cool too. The only iterations I could never get behind were the Saban and Concert turtles, no shade to fans of those though.
I still can't believe Neca would make figures based on part three. It wouldn't be accurate, but I would've used other turtle movie figures instead. And dressed them up as ancient samurai turtles. The turtles appearance wasn't the only problem with the movie, however it was the biggest problem. Another problem was bringing Elias Koteas back as Casey Jones turning him into a babysitter.
Actually, if you want a really cheap AND realistic-looking horse; just find a few of those old-fashioned, dollar-store-flocked-horses! I have a couple, and they not only scale PERFECTLY with my LOTR figures, but I also customized their saddles, bridles, and armor myself out of found materials! If you can't do it yourself, I'm sure a friend could help. ; )
Really cool figures over all, yeah the movie was one of those memories as a child I 'noticed' something I loved wasn't very good. Just sitting there at home eating pizza and thinking about why they changed the look of the turtles, what happened to Splinter, why was April so pretty, just all round a growing up moment for me that day.
Try holding those heads in boiling water for about a min. A min and half and it'll loosen the plastic up..take some pliers, pull-out those ball pegs with ease. You could use a hair Dryer. However with those plastics..water seems safer. Might just gotta soak them longer if the pegs don't budge..should work though.
They look great, I just don't understand the choice to give two of them a vibrant expression and have the other two sport this neutral plain 'meh' expression.
I ordered these and the Alf. The day I ordered them I got an email from Neca saying Alf was ordered. Never received an email saying I ordered these. When I look at my account, it shows I ordered both and was charged for both tmnt 3 movie samurai turtles and cosmic Alf. The Alf arrived today but I haven’t received an email ever, saying these turtles are on the way or were ordered. Anyone know if I should start worrying yet lol.
Ever since the announced the figures for the first movie I've been waiting for this day. Still my favorite of all the TMNT movies. Ordered the Mikey and Leo pack this morning
I started this review months ago. Fast forward to today, I've returned after acquiring these turtle boys. I wasn't ready for the horse segment. Absolutely brilliant.
Just waiting on these to arrive, I think they look so good. I watched the 3rd movie the most as a kid because It was the only one I could get my hands on in Ireland around when it came out. The movie turtles were and still are my favourite version of tmnt. But when I couldn't get the first two movies anywhere on video (Yes, i'm old) until years later, I rented this one a bunch of times as my only option. So I have mad nostalgia for this 3rd movie and for that reason I like 3 better than 2. The first one being the GOAT Turtles movie obviously.
Mine had zero packing materials but surprisingly both of my boxes were mint. You would think for almost $20 shipping they would have included bubble wrap
Hey Turtlefans, greetings form Berlin. Great video! Love your humor. I have the other 2 VHS boxes and cant wait for the 3rd one to arrive. I think these are the best 4packs of the turtles by far. Maybe the mezco turtles can compete. We will see.
@@NostalgiaUnboxed lol is what I have and not the figures lol - I guess neca is shipping these without any sort of notification or tracking for some folks and I’m the lucky winner
I only have the the first movie turtles. Passed on the SOTO turtles when I saw them, and I passed on these. Happy for those that wanted them, though. I’ll take the Universal Monster crossover “movie” turtles instead.
@@NostalgiaUnboxed truth be told, I was never much of a Mezco fan. Always felt their figures were too small and over priced. Now the only one I actually liked was the Marvel Comics Bishop.
These are cool!! And I agree, if we don't want to keep a thing, we should give them away for reasonable exchange (even if it isn't monetary) Together we can fight scalpers!
they don't look to bad the sculpt work is good but I still think I prefer the secret of the ooze turtles cant wait to get them, by the way I got a ZD toys iron man mark 6 cant wait
And personally, I don't think the 3rd one was really THAT bad. Yeah, it looks cheap, but I still like the premise. And it has a few good performances and funny moments. It's certainly the worst of the trilogy, but still entertaining. =)
Man I need this collection to complete all 3 movies. Movie sucked but in a fun goofy way. Perfect review for the release of the new movie today. Can never get enough turtles!
My movie collection is just fine without these figures as a reminder of the worst TMNT movie ever. Easy pass for me. The only figure I need now is Keno.
They should have came with bags for the heads so I dont have to look at them. Teenage mutant ninja FROGS!! They are so accurate and thats the problem, i will always hate looking at the 3rd movie faces.
They did a re-release of these but did two packs and my wife got me them for Valentine’s Day/my birthday lol shhhh don’t tell her I know about them lol
Uhm….you do pose the figures so a poser. The horses…comedy gold. Ole Hatter is kicking himself for all those views he left on the table. Cha-Ching RUclips moneys.
@@ALGOBESS you shouldn’t be buying things like this on Amazon. The two packs of these are in Walmarts for $60 each and the resale VALUE of the 4 pack isn’t very high.

i think neca dropped the ball with those goofy heads + bandanas/hat problems and the bodies being the same ... maybe its the movie fault but i dont care about buying them because of those details
No to the horrid horse. Neca turtles on my little pony. I'm spending hundreds on the TMNT. I'm sure people will agree that we can afford a horse too. Otherwise it's a massive note that ugly horse or a pony or whatever that might be.
@@NostalgiaUnboxed I def got caught in the hype of these bc of the FB groups. I wish I would have passed now that the alt heads dont work w the Movie 1 figures.

Someone get James Rolfe this box set, because we all know TMNT 3 is his favorite TMNT movie ;)
He needs it! Haha
He doesn't have time for it
I recall when TMNT III movie cameout it wasn't a favorite amougst many fans at the time and was the last of the TMNT movies for several years! 🐢🍕🎬🎥
I would rather watch the Bay films lol
I opted to not go to the theater and purchased some old Garbage Pail Kids instead with the movie money.
Another great video and review! That Paige Turco 2-pack idea is straight 🔥

I prefer the Playmate's Movie III turtles, simply because I like how they designed the weapons. Such as Leonardo having broad and curved katanas.
Those are fun

Great review. I was wondering about the pins, I seen them at my local Regal. When I see Mutant Mayhem this weekend, I will try to get a blue one.
Awesome! And thank you

I hope you get one soon!
The angry heads will be my way to display the TMNT3 turtles :P
I think it's an improvement
I really do! the angry faces and the samurai armor makes me forget all the bad jokes 😅
they don't look to bad the sculpt work is good but I still think I prefer the secret of the ooze turtles cant wait to get them, by the way I got a ZD toys iron man mark 6 cant wait

🤣THE BEST review of these!!!!!
Haha, thank you so much!
Have you heard anything about April from the 2nd and 3rd movies?
Nothing :(
Omg I saw them at Ollie’s and was like I hope they fit lol

Im subscribing

I appreciate that
What do you think turned out worse?Ninja turtles 3 or Robocop 3? 😜
Haha! That's a great, fair question. It's been many years since I watched Robocop , but my memory says TMNT 3 was worse
I loved both. I was. Kid tho
And personally, I don't think the 3rd one was really THAT bad. Yeah, it looks cheap, but I still like the premise. And it has a few good performances and funny moments. It's certainly the worst of the trilogy, but still entertaining. =)

much better than mad sadders review lol

Oh wow. I’m glad you loved it so much!
You’re kidding about that horse, right?
lol yes
@@NostalgiaUnboxed 😂 ok I was absolutely appalled 😉
I heard those extra heads were strictly for the first tmnt neca figs.
They don't match though

It’s 35 at my Walmart should I cop it
Yep
I got some McFarlane horses. Black Witcher on sale at bbts for 25 each.
Did they scale well for you?
Putting it up for sale to let someone buy it. "For a reasonable Price" that hit me hard. I paid almost 400 UK pounds and that's so un cool
It's very unfair for international buyers
I feel like I'm cheating because RUclips recommended me your video before Mad Hatter's...
You’re succeeding now lol
What about the Mcfarlane Dark Knight Returns BAF horse that may work well
Pretty sure Mad Hatter tested that one and it was garbage

those script on the handle are not supposed to be Japanese characters, they are supposed to be Sanskrit.
