For 1991 the movie star turtles were an amazing feat in action figures. These figures were the most sought out turtles on the shelf. I was lucky enough at the age of 9 when there was a Toys R Us grand opening, it was also my birthday. I got a $100 certificate on top of the grand opening sale and made out like a bandit. I got all 4 turtles, a super soaker 100, and a nintendo game. Best birthday ever.
So glad we did end up getting that accessory pack with alternate head sculpts, and the alternate heads are just as spot-on. I'm amazed at how much this line has expanded, and I love all the figures.
An accessory pack with the mutagen canister, the pizza box (w/extra slices), a skateboard, Donnie's straw hat, the baby Turtles and some alternative heads like you mentioned would be freakin' epic. Oh yeah..gotta get that trenchcoat Raph down to this scale too.
Awesome awesome review bro! Love the movie quotes! Totally agree, Casey Jones in this line would be amazing, but only if he has real cloth sweat pants!
You forgot to show the differences on their shells, I believe all their shells are different, I'm pretty sure they are!! But great review man, I freaking love those movie star figures, used to have them all as a kid, slowly lost them all throughout the years, sux because they were my absolute favorite, but now that I have these NECA turtles the sting of losing the movie star turtles isn't so painful, but man I wish I still had them
Im one of the lucky sob who got the sdcc figures set...and those figures are so incredibly awesome, that i displayed them the day i got them and im still blown away every time i look at them on my shelf! They will stay on my shelf forever, ill never take them off, they are too beautiful, they are literal perfection! Oh and by the way, Donatello is and always been my favorite! ;)
@@jasonvoorheesthethird neca is releasing them in europe britain and a few other countries in nov/dec,they even made a teaser poster of a turtle shell with stickers kinda like a well travelled suitcase of all the different countries if that makes sense lol.im not paying scalpers prices i'll wait as its worth it.these r my holy grail and i must own at least 1 before ww3 breaks out and we all die😂😂😂
kryo Boy oh ok! Well im telling you, they are even better than what you think! They have that little something that no other figures has imo. The 1990 movie is one of my all time movie, and ive been dreaming of these figures for years, well since 1990 to be honest. So just like you, i was so pumped when they came out, i couldnt believe how great they looked, and i couldnt wait to get them in hand. But im telling you, even though ive watched dozens of videos before buying them, even if i knew every details about them, nothing could have prepared me from the awesomeness of these figures when i got them in hand! They are perfection, literally! You will fall in love with them, no figures can compare to them imo, and im a big big big collector, i have all kind of high end figures and statues, but these 1990 turtles are a dream come true, they look like they have jumped right out of the movie! You will love them! :) And one little tip, buy 2 sets if you can, one to play with/display and one to keep in box, because the boxes are as beautiful as the figures, they are the 1990 VHS cassette replica just like the SDCC set, so display them as well if you can. You will love the boxes as much as the figures im sure lol
@@jasonvoorheesthethird im crying right now.the only turtle figures i have r the teeny tiny mega blox figs😭.yes the neca ones look like they just stepped off the screen.i used to be a hardcore collector but age got in the way(41 now)and i sold 90% of my collection i only have 4 predators,2 game of thrones figures and a black series boba fett.10year old me is screaming for these turtles.i probably wont get 2 sets as my mrs would freak out i would just be happy to have 1(all of them would be stuff of dreams) i cant stop watching reviews of them cos they r just the best looking figures ive ever seen.only the new batman hush mafex comes close to absolute perfection but neca just killed it with tmnt.👍
Fun fact the original 92 TMNT 3 movie figures in the old Japan armor they did the head switch from the original movie star figures, Raph got Miley's old head and Mikey got Leo's old head, while Donnie kept his and Leo got Raphs.
I had the movie star turtles as a kid and honestly they're so ugly and gimmicky I feel like I wasted money on the old ones. The new ones are so fucking beautiful I want to cry!
Ha. Donnie's always been my favourite..my buddies 2nd favourite. I suppose I dug them the most because they were the most vital of the group. But yeah, Raph's certainly in 2nd place. Mikey's waaaay down at the bottom (of virtual non-existence) lol.
Ah yeah, I didn't mention in the video that I had gotten my Leonardo without swords, so I borrowed the ones from the "History of Leonardo" pack version of the Movie Stars figure.
Hey jcc I really love your content and of you see this, I really want to send you some toys and memes so I need to know if your interested, also if you are comment on one of my videos because I don’t know how else to contact people on this site. Hope to hear from you soon, and keep up the good work
I just subbed!!Wow looking back at the original ones I was overly impressed back then. They nailed it at neca. I have a diaroma video featuring them check it out when you get a chance
Hey, so I keep hearing more and more that people who ordered these picked them up at GameStop (which caused a lot of issues). I have no clue to why that is; since I ordered mine on their website and they were delivered to my house like any online order would be.
I pre-ordered in-store and picked them up. It's simply because there was no shipping charge if you did that. I heard about the issues people were having and I got pretty worried, but thankfully I chose to preorder mine at a reliable Gamestop.
Dude dont lose hope they r coming to the uk/ireland in December.neca revealing new ninja turtles figures based on the second movie at sdcc.thats in about 3 weeks m8 woohoo lol.
I dunno... Raph was singled out and went on his own journeys way more than any other turtle. They were all pretty prominent, but it wasn't an even 25% each split of attention. Raph probably had 30%.
Aw man, you're basically saying "You should have made the comparison a total slaughter instead". lol Seriously, I would have but those Classics ones looked so terrible I passed on them completely.
I also ordered the neca turtles from GameStop but GameStop decided to screw me over when it came to receiving my tmnt’s so I will never do business with GameStop. I did however find the two packs of tmnt movie figures at Walmart and now my collection is complete so fuck gamestop and thank you Walmart for having those so many years later.
I virtually collect every single kind of action figure. I could totally do away with all of that (fuck Marvel Legends for starters lol) if we could just get NECA to start pumping out TMNT figures at retail/available on their online store. Playmates needs to pull their heads out of their own asses and give them more freedom. I'm really wanting a cartoon Splinter (for starters). Then we can get the movie version; then every single character that appeared in the cartoon and the first 2 movies.
Movie stars ones look horrendous. The shape of turtles is ok. Their skin texture, exaggerated spots look borderline disgusting. It seems like they tried to merge cartoon and movie look, which failed miserably.
The most infamous "Damn" ever spoken in film history lol.
Come back here I’m not finished with you!!

Let’s start a petition for neca to do a vanilla ice in this line from turtles 2!
That would mean they wouldn't come with the weapons because they didn't use their weapons in TMNT2!
Vanilla Ice would have to agree to it.
The neca ones are amazing, ive been using pictures of them as reference material for my tmnt artwork
So glad we did end up getting that accessory pack with alternate head sculpts, and the alternate heads are just as spot-on. I'm amazed at how much this line has expanded, and I love all the figures.
I had those movie, rubber versions as a kid and I remember thinking they were the coolest, most movie-accurate tmnt toys ever!
...wow..side by side is so cool! I actually have 2 sets of both lines! I love these 90s tmnts
Wow two set of both, lucky .can I have one.... cowabunga
Imagine if kids in the 90s had these neca ones instead
Subbed! Love how fun and colourful your content is!

Nice video man keep up the good work
Donatello has always been my favorite Turtle.
You can do a custom Casey Jones, Dolph Ziggler from a WWE line, paint his hair dark brown and it be just about perfect
Awesome awesome review bro! Love the movie quotes! Totally agree, Casey Jones in this line would be amazing, but only if he has real cloth sweat pants!

I would like to see this level of detail in a series of figures from the Michael Bay version… At least bebop and rocksteady
Great review- commentary cracked me up
Who is stronger the turtles or captain kill shot?
Cap kill obviously
Dropkick. Dipstick. True only shriek is a match for the dab king lmao
Captain kathrine killshot is obviously stronger
Blaine Hoover fair point after all ninjitsu is nothing compared to the power of the dab!
Donatello is the best Ninja turtle
Aksel Ørbæk Pedersen 6B lol that’s like saying I like Sean Connery playing bond over Daniel Craig, it’s to much of a subjective question
They look Awesome! Their straps look like real leather & the shells look so real! Great review/video!!👍☯️👍

That is INSANELY interesting, I had no idea!! I never paid the TMNT III Movie stars figures enough mind to notice! That's super cool!
@@Jcc2224 love your channel too btw all awesome collections. Do some power rangers stuff too
The movie stars Raph is perfect , I just think the neca version is a little TOO Raph...
You played yourself
I had the movie star turtles as a kid and honestly they're so ugly and gimmicky I feel like I wasted money on the old ones. The new ones are so fucking beautiful I want to cry!
I think the old ones are pretty cool. It's classic TMNT goodness to me. I totally see why people don't like the rubbery feel though.
I believe i ownership the tmnt 3 movie ones. I rememver those lime green spots on their skin
Oh man this vid was hilarious.raph is the coolest.great vid man👍from🏴
Those neca ones are amazing looking.
He yelled "Damn!" Not "'damnit'
I gonna buy the bootleg of the movie stars
Save your money. lol
The older ones’ spots kinda make them look like they’re covered in eyes. Also, the turtles have to point with their middle fingers.
Get well soon!
Ha. Donnie's always been my favourite..my buddies 2nd favourite. I suppose I dug them the most because they were the most vital of the group. But yeah, Raph's certainly in 2nd place. Mikey's waaaay down at the bottom (of virtual non-existence) lol.
you crazy bro! Michelangelo's a party dude
Wanna see more of your reviews for the TMNT NECA figures!
Conspiracy theory: they mixed the heads up on Mikey and Donnie and nobody caught it
Leonardo’s swords look like they are the 1988 turtle figure colour, the 1992 movie stars have dark brown weapons and they should all look the same.
Ah yeah, I didn't mention in the video that I had gotten my Leonardo without swords, so I borrowed the ones from the "History of Leonardo" pack version of the Movie Stars figure.

Yeah, I'd be more than happy to receive a package from you! The P.O. Box address is in the description of all my videos!
Jcc2224 thanks! If you want you can make a video on it but you don’t have to
I just subbed!!Wow looking back at the original ones I was overly impressed back then. They nailed it at neca. I have a diaroma video featuring them check it out when you get a chance
The only movie where a angry turtle says damn!!!!!!!!!!! Out loud #1990
Donnie's my favourite. I also ship him with April!
... too much information?

Donatello is Peter Laird's favorite turtle.
peter laird is a nobody that doesnt even know who the ninja turtles are lolololol
@@Jcc2224 the guy was one of the key factors into created the franchise
What's the next old vs new? 🤔
Also did you see the new Aladdin trailer with the ugly CGI Ginnie?🧞♂️
I dunno what the next one'll be yet!
And I did... the CGI on that looks horrible.
@@Jcc2224 Yes it does...sort of makes Star Wars prequel CGI look good and thanks✌
I was enjoying the video up untill the donny comment. He's my favourite turtle
Leonardo with the main character from the original movie
I dunno... Raph was singled out and went on his own journeys way more than any other turtle. They were all pretty prominent, but it wasn't an even 25% each split of attention. Raph probably had 30%.
You should have compared the classics instead of the retros
Aw man, you're basically saying "You should have made the comparison a total slaughter instead". lol
Seriously, I would have but those Classics ones looked so terrible I passed on them completely.
I like turtles
😂😂👍 ive saw that vid
Oh btw dony was my favorite...

Donnie's my sister's favorite
NO one give this video a negative!!

Idk why , but I dont like TMNT ...its just not my thing , but I watched the video only because of your amazeingness
That's alright. We all have different opinions on things.... :)
@@lucylanuza3277 yeah you are right 😀
