To think I was actually going to skip out on these. These look so good. Glad I was able to find them thanks to a nice Target employee who went in the back and grabbed them for me.
I’m gonna check them out! I’m currently making my way through the first Mirage run and I’m really enjoying it. I have loved turtles and comics since I was a kid but for some reason I never check out Turtles comics until recently and they are awesome haha
@@UnparalleledUniverse you're in for a treat! The different art styles and crazy story twists make all those runs feel so rich and varied. The closest thing back then was the first Crow book. True outlaw type of comics!
So far, your review is the best. I said it the first time you switched your background to purple and I’ll say it again: the background really clashes well with these and allowed you to highlight them really well. The lighting, the poses, it’s perfect, dude! Also, I went to Scalpersville on this set 😂 I just don’t have the time to invest in going from Target to Target these days. I felt I got them for a fair price (all things considered). Keep up the good work!
These figures are amazing I especially love how neca uses the black lines to give it the cartoony look, it makes them look like they jumped right off the pages
I think you are a bit confused on your details. These Turtles are from the Mirage comics that takes place in the middle of the series when the Turtles get bulkier after they had to flee NYC due to Shredder burning down April's apartment. They come back to NYC after about 10 issues and look this way due to that training (and having an artist who was working on the side stories take over the main book). As such, these go perfectly with Professor Honeycut (Fugitoid) and Casey.
Yea I was like, "wait a minute." These are definitely Return to New York turtles and Fugitoid is in the Mirage comics as well. I don't blame the creator though, there is a ton of turtle iterations 😆
These are the turtles I’ve been waiting for, I love the all red-masked look for them and they’re so much easier to handle than NECA’s past figures, popping their hands off feels much safer than their movie versions
I wasn’t even looking for them when found them. Was just doing my usual target hunt and as I hit the neca area I found another guy who had one in his hands he pointed me towards the only other that was there. I was so surprised when I found them, I was gonna skip but after some deliberation I just had to pick them up, and now they’re going in my top 10 this year, I just love them so much.
i hope NECA tackles other turtle incarnations in the future besides the 90’s movies, ‘87 series and comics in the future. would love to see rise of tmnt, the 2003 cartoon, 2012 and mutant mayhem someday they NAIL the turtle content
Awesome set, I read this iteration of the turtles in the past and im getting it but I hope neca make the 2003 tmnt already, because thats the turtles i grew up watching
Congrats on the KickStarter launch for Odious! Looks great, and I can't wait to get both of mine (yeah, I'm being optimistic that it'll fully fund, sue me!)
I come to your videos to see the comparisons to a ton of other figures. If I wonder, do these look good with NECA toon figures? You got me covered. How do they look with Super7? You took care of that. Comparing with Batman for some reason? You got it haha. Really looking forward to getting these. I know by now people have already said these aren’t technically IDW turtles…although in addition to their own great TMNT comics, IDW has plenty of reprints of classic Mirage turtle comics that are worth your time for sure. Great video man!
These are not IDW turtles, these are the mirage turtles, there based off the return to New York story, they was drawn differently, but there are definitely mirage
NECA is my go-to figure company, but I've never been super big into TMNT. With that I've skipped all their TMNT stuff, but it is hard too deny just how great it all looks, if I had to get one set of Turtles it'd be a tossup between these and the movie versions. To me NECA these days feels like the most consistent figure company out there at retail in terms of being worth the price, they really do feel like true collectibles without any cheapness.
@@stormselites1662 Glad to hear this from someone else. I keep being met with derision when I keep asking where to find it and everybody responds to me like every Target on Earth is stocked like it's Atlanta or New York.
@@danielcraig9666 Where are you? Generally speaking, midsized markets are the best places to find action figures. If you’re in a small town, you don’t get any good stock. If you’re in a major market like Los Angeles or New York, your stores get a lot of stock but you’re also competing against a lot of other collectors for that stock
Their not supposed to have colored mask second you don't value or appreciate the source material and the ways of the ninja practice "bushi no jitsu" reason why you long for the colored mask cause your obsessed with the childish later incarnation that's what's sets the mirage from the babyfied watered down movie trilogy toys the cringe ronin and childish cartoon the tmnt are ninja and "ninjas" aren't supposed to be told apart thats that Hollywood white washed cheesey ninja flicks with white dudes in color coded klan uniforms with a ninja word logo on their head band, naruto, mighty morphin powers rangers super sentai, 3 ninja clownery.
Leo and Ralph's faces are opposite one has bigger grin growl on left the other right. Box shows ralph with widest grin yet everyone puts nunchucks on him
@@UnparalleledUniverse There's some odd deviations to space, etc... but essentially Issues 1-21 (plus the mini-series for Raph and Leo) were distilled down into the first Ninja Turtles Movie in pretty expert fashion.
@@UnparalleledUniverse you need to go read the mirage comics tmnt how you gonna buy these turtles but nit pick their color and want the colored coded mask from the babyish watered down kids version of the tmnt but don't appreciate the red mask and understand the source material ????
@@danielcraig9666 the live action 1990 movie is wasted potential cause they didn't need to pick and choose panels and made the turtles the b plot to an after-school special also they didn't need to go to jim Henson they could've went to stan Winston and he would've gave us the raw martial arts choreography of the mirage books rather than the series deviating to a kids movie franchise
I have the mezco 5 points turtles, the playmates 2012 plus shellraiser, the idw loyal subjects turtles and these. And i love them all but these stand out. I'm gonna get more neca stuff. I hope they will release more of the 80s cartoon stuff. The pizza clubs suck because of their heads and the others are just too expensive now. But if they ever come out again I'm getting them. Plus I'm definitely getting the 2012 ones coming out
Look good and I have a set shipping from Target, but it looks like they missed the lines on the teeth, at least on Raph. The black lines look like they are on the teeth themselves instead of the grooves.
I've seen 3 of these reviews now and it just makes me want them more and more but I have no idea when these will reach my area 😢 Thanks for the great review man!
At 11:00, it really shows the insane NECA quality across all lines. The Toon looks like it popped off the screen, the Comic looks like it's straight from a comic book, and the Movie looks so perfectly realistic. Just flawless. At 13:00, the contrast in style and execution between Marvel Legends Cap and Leo is so glaring. I'd much rather pay $30-$35 for Marvel Legends and get some quality paint applications. Hasbro's half-ass attempt at cartoon "cel shading" actually turned me off of ML completely. The bare plastic, extremely limited paint applications, lazily reused sculpts, and crappy thigh cuts just make them look sooooo cheap.
Great review, but you accidentally said Raphael was the best turtle, when clearly you meant Leonardo ;-) (Leo did kill Shredder twice in the original comics after all.)
@@UnparalleledUniverseyeah the look of these turtles is more based on how Kevin Eastman drew them vs the first round of mirage turtles we got that were more based on Peter Laird’s designs in the earlier issues. Things like the hood with Raph and the bandaged arm accessory also point to these turtles being from the Return to New York story line from Mirage that dropped in 89 The IDW turtle comics started in 2011 and are still going! It has a little bit more of that edge from the og mirage comics but combines that with some of the lighter elements from the 80s series. It’s been a great run and I’d highly recommend it. Would love to see Neca makes figures of that version of the bros too.
Whoaaa! Nah I love Turtles I’m just not an expert on every aspect of their long history that spans over several different types of media and generations. My bad ahah
Different colored headbands was for the kids cartoon and toys. Never meant for the comics. The cartoon headbands on the first Mirage tmnt were actually KO product.
@@UnparalleledUniverse nows a good time to go read the entire mirage comics to get caught up on the lore you can start with vol1 first eleven issues the guest era is optional because some of the storys arch are semi canon but not really, fugitoid micro series tmnt vol.2 tmnt vol.4 / then tales of the tmnt vol 1 and vol2 / image tmnt vol 3 aka idw tmnt urban legends, kevin eastman simon bisley bodycount, and big bang comics #10 as optional since vol3 is not canon bu explains why the turtles wear their mask shredders daughter pimiko and them having drastic changes to the turtles to easily tell them apart *) run
Grew up reading the Mirage Comics of TMNT, I need these figures. My favorite look. NECA needs a wider release of these & not just at Target where they are hoarded & hidden. Wide distribution to all retailers, I WANT to give them my money. Jeez.
NO, you must beg, suffer and search in order to give away $165. Necas distribution sucks and make it a hassle to get every release. Not really in the mood to fight grown man children for ninja turtles at this point in my life. If they make them easier to get, I'd gladly buy them though.
I agree with the articulation. These figures would be damn near perfect if the articulation was a little better. It's good, but I feel that Neca could squeeze out a bit more from the knees, shoulders, and ankles. The wrists should also have vertical hinges for better poses with the weapons. Other than that, they're incredible. I would liked to see the colored bandannas, too, but I have a feeling Neca will recolor and slightly remold these figures for 2003 TMNT versions of the characters. A lot of people believe this may happen in the future, considering the similarities between Mirage and 03 Turtles. The latter was based on the former, after all. That would be awesome. Would buy 03 Turtles figures in an instant!
Yo how are y’all finding these? Who do you have to ask in target to find them? And does anyone know if they came out yet? There’s so much mystery and extra steps around releases like this that I skip them entirely tho I REALLY want these figures so I’m willing to try
Someone grabbed this set for me but I believe they had the bar code and showed it to a Target employee but a few days ago I found a set sitting on the shelf at my local target, so I think it’s random
@@UnparalleledUniverse ahhh see I went to my local target a few days ago and didn’t see them. I did see the Splinter at one so I assumed that they just would come out. I’ll go back and ask someone and see. Do you happen to have the barcode? Also big fan of your reviews. Keep up the good work and please bring back the comparison videos if you haven’t already
@@alexlovehall7796 I do not currently have the bar code but follow @toyshiz or @mcucollector24 on instagram, they posts a lot of bar codes and DPCI numbers to help people find stuff. Thanks! Definitely bringing back comparisons! Planning on one for next week.
@@UnparalleledUniverse hey I just wanna say thanks cause that barcode idea worked. One of the targets had it in stock and I had no clue. I don’t got the money right now so I’ll be back on Friday to get it. My dad gave me the idea to put one on hold so I’ll see how that plays out
Sorry, bud. None of them are IDW. They are all from the original Mirage Comics style. IDW is a newer ongoing series drawn totally different. IDW just reprinted the Mirage Comics issues in paperbacks and hardcovers. As a matter of fact, these turtles are all from the story arc "Return To New York" from the Mirage years. You'd understand the hood accessory more if you read it.
I don't know how old are those but was there a review of the TMNT that actually look like the early comics? They also had all red bandanas and pictures I've seen were very cool but I've never seen any review videos anywhere...
The original Eastman &Laird mirage turtles came out from neca around 2008ish. You can find a few reviews, but it’s usually the more widely available KOs.
Donny's belt had a back notch where bow staff goes into. Besides for faces the front shells have scratch marks to tell them apart. Everyone depicting these figures are blind to obvious things blantly shown on box and so forth. There weapons in the box indicate which turtle is witch besides for there belts. Stop giving Mikey the biggest grin. First turtle comics Mikey wasn't comedian. Sheesh get it rt ppl.
No cap the 1990s movie trilogy is wasted potential they rushed through different story lines deviated from the source material turned the first film into a after-school special about family and rebellious trouble teen angst with the turtles being the B plot in their own film like transformers are the b plot in their film where we just follow the human characters. also cause Jim Henson and studio reluctant contradiction who was worried about the violence and comes from educational children programing media like sesame street the storyteller and Muppets show even tho dark crystal and labyrinth is scary for small childern and violent and Kermit the frog was a sadist in his coffee commercial days the studio was afraid because of george lucas and Stephen Spielberg howard the duck years prior and he didn't want eastman and lairds full vision of the turtles having violent fight choreography straight out a shaw bros wu tang collection or toho samurai flick killing and brutally slicing stabbing evicerating and bludgeoning purple dragons and foot ninjas with their weapons or shredder killing and harming his own men and the turtles, themes of suicidal seppuku and shredder suicide bombing himself by accident. the second movie was quickly rushed out and the studio like for ghostbusters 2 wanted to make the franchise more like its cartoon counterpart and made it a repeat of the first films plot and the later films deviated from adapting mirage villains like baxter stockman savanti romero rat king the triceratons the foot elite and shredder clones etc because of star wars level high budget action and scifi scenes with fugitoid and mouser robot early cgi or Stan Winston level puppetry and jim Henson style dinosaur sitcom suits meets dark crystal triceraton puppetry what we got was walker and lord norinaga replacing renet savanti romero and cerebus, super shredder tokka & rhazar replacing the studio and fans of the 87 cartoon requested bebop and rocksteady or the mirage shredder clones that should've been in the return to new york plot professor perry replacing the utroms and baxter stockman and tatsu undermining development for orroku saki the shredder as the leader of the foot when he had no second in command chunin, and they combined orroku nagi the older bro of saki with orroku saki who appears in the Archie comic and novelization adaptation of the film.
@@miKeYdOEsNtLiKeiT508 they are ninjas that's their entire existence is training in the ways of bushido to kill shredder aka orroku saki and the foot clan for killing their surrogate father and clans jōnin tang shen and hamato yoshi and to hide from humanity from discovering their existence and to live out the rest of their days in seclusion thats the tragedy of their life their the only anomoly of their kind and will remain assassins. the heroes in a half shell is some Saturday morning cartoon nonsense the tmnt aren't superheroes their unholy abominations against nature forced into a cycle of revenge by their sensei splinter sama they take it upon their selves to help people but initially they are forced to live in seclusion
@@miKeYdOEsNtLiKeiT508 the colored mask are overrated and makes no sense for ninja only obsessed with them colors cause of those cheesey white washed americanized ninja movies with white actor with bad acting dialog in color coded uniforms like military green and brown white yellow green purple red light blue klan robe color uniforms with literally ninja word logo on their headband, g.i. joe snake eyes nunchuck jinx storm shadow, mighty morphin power rangers super sentai, or three ninja movies late 80s 90s clownery.
Because they are based on the original comics which were in B&W and everyone had the same color bandanna on the covers. It was the horrible 80s toon that gave them the colored bandanas.

So far, your review is the best. I said it the first time you switched your background to purple and I’ll say it again: the background really clashes well with these and allowed you to highlight them really well. The lighting, the poses, it’s perfect, dude!
Also, I went to Scalpersville on this set 😂 I just don’t have the time to invest in going from Target to Target these days. I felt I got them for a fair price (all things considered). Keep up the good work!
I did the same.... but 10 y o me would have never forgiven me if I didnt
These figures are amazing I especially love how neca uses the black lines to give it the cartoony look, it makes them look like they jumped right off the pages
im so sad i cant afford it as i just spemt 500 dollars on every ninja turtle mutant maham
Maybe sometime in the future NECA will release the 2003 cartoon turtles. That would be great.
Nickelodeon neglects the 03 show
The back of box shows ralph with the full grin. Everyone always switche's it up with Mikey.
I think you are a bit confused on your details.

Been wondering the same thing. No Targets here in Canada, so I keep waiting for BBTS to get them in, if they even do that.
I agree with the articulation. These figures would be damn near perfect if the articulation was a little better. It's good, but I feel that Neca could squeeze out a bit more from the knees, shoulders, and ankles. The wrists should also have vertical hinges for better poses with the weapons. Other than that, they're incredible.
I would liked to see the colored bandannas, too, but I have a feeling Neca will recolor and slightly remold these figures for 2003 TMNT versions of the characters. A lot of people believe this may happen in the future, considering the similarities between Mirage and 03 Turtles. The latter was based on the former, after all. That would be awesome. Would buy 03 Turtles figures in an instant!
03 is definitely what I'll be waiting on. I don't dislike the all red but I grew up with the individual colored masks.
You have a Kickstarter? I definitely have to get in on that
Ninja stars are called shuriken
P, where'd you get the Captain America head from marvel legends?
Nice!
I would swap Leo and Donnys heads.
Its probably wrong but I would wanna repaint their head bands, except Raphs.
Raph .....
how do you get these? feel like i cant find them.
Yo how are y’all finding these? Who do you have to ask in target to find them? And does anyone know if they came out yet? There’s so much mystery and extra steps around releases like this that I skip them entirely tho I REALLY want these figures so I’m willing to try
Someone grabbed this set for me but I believe they had the bar code and showed it to a Target employee but a few days ago I found a set sitting on the shelf at my local target, so I think it’s random
@@UnparalleledUniverse ahhh see I went to my local target a few days ago and didn’t see them. I did see the Splinter at one so I assumed that they just would come out. I’ll go back and ask someone and see. Do you happen to have the barcode?
Also big fan of your reviews. Keep up the good work and please bring back the comparison videos if you haven’t already
@@alexlovehall7796 I do not currently have the bar code but follow @toyshiz or @mcucollector24 on instagram, they posts a lot of bar codes and DPCI numbers to help people find stuff.
Thanks! Definitely bringing back comparisons! Planning on one for next week.
@@UnparalleledUniverse hey I just wanna say thanks cause that barcode idea worked. One of the targets had it in stock and I had no clue. I don’t got the money right now so I’ll be back on Friday to get it. My dad gave me the idea to put one on hold so I’ll see how that plays out
@@alexlovehall7796 nice!
Great Review Man 🔥as always
Nice
I hope they make these separately

Thanks! I use a Fuji XT3 !
Θέλω την σειρά σερίφη του διάστηματος 🤠😊☠️
Sorry, bud. None of them are IDW. They are all from the original Mirage Comics style. IDW is a newer ongoing series drawn totally different. IDW just reprinted the Mirage Comics issues in paperbacks and hardcovers. As a matter of fact, these turtles are all from the story arc "Return To New York" from the Mirage years. You'd understand the hood accessory more if you read it.
Got it, thanks! I’m gonna go back and read those, thanks!
I don't know how old are those but was there a review of the TMNT that actually look like the early comics? They also had all red bandanas and pictures I've seen were very cool but I've never seen any review videos anywhere...
The original Eastman &Laird mirage turtles came out from neca around 2008ish. You can find a few reviews, but it’s usually the more widely available KOs.
Wasn't even event related, such a weird NECA drop for dure.
Came out of nowhere for sure!
Mini grail
When do these release
Anybody in NYC find these ???
22:05 What a pic! So, did you like them or not? lol
Ummm… these aren’t IDW. These are Mirage from the Return to New York storyline
Where did you get them?
Donny's belt had a back notch where bow staff goes into. Besides for faces the front shells have scratch marks to tell them apart. Everyone depicting these figures are blind to obvious things blantly shown on box and so forth. There weapons in the box indicate which turtle is witch besides for there belts. Stop giving Mikey the biggest grin. First turtle comics Mikey wasn't comedian. Sheesh get it rt ppl.
link?
That would probably help huh? Hahahaha I just put it in the description. Thank you!
These are better than the movie turtles. These guy will straight up kill you. The comics were bad ass.
No cap the 1990s movie trilogy is wasted potential they rushed through different story lines deviated from the source material turned the first film into a after-school special about family and rebellious trouble teen angst with the turtles being the B plot in their own film like transformers are the b plot in their film where we just follow the human characters. also cause Jim Henson and studio reluctant contradiction who was worried about the violence and comes from educational children programing media like sesame street the storyteller and Muppets show even tho dark crystal and labyrinth is scary for small childern and violent and Kermit the frog was a sadist in his coffee commercial days the studio was afraid because of george lucas and Stephen Spielberg howard the duck years prior and he didn't want eastman and lairds full vision of the turtles having violent fight choreography straight out a shaw bros wu tang collection or toho samurai flick killing and brutally slicing stabbing evicerating and bludgeoning purple dragons and foot ninjas with their weapons or shredder killing and harming his own men and the turtles, themes of suicidal seppuku and shredder suicide bombing himself by accident. the second movie was quickly rushed out and the studio like for ghostbusters 2 wanted to make the franchise more like its cartoon counterpart and made it a repeat of the first films plot and the later films deviated from adapting mirage villains like baxter stockman savanti romero rat king the triceratons the foot elite and shredder clones etc because of star wars level high budget action and scifi scenes with fugitoid and mouser robot early cgi or Stan Winston level puppetry and jim Henson style dinosaur sitcom suits meets dark crystal triceraton puppetry what we got was walker and lord norinaga replacing renet savanti romero and cerebus, super shredder tokka & rhazar replacing the studio and fans of the 87 cartoon requested bebop and rocksteady or the mirage shredder clones that should've been in the return to new york plot professor perry replacing the utroms and baxter stockman and tatsu undermining development for orroku saki the shredder as the leader of the foot when he had no second in command chunin, and they combined orroku nagi the older bro of saki with orroku saki who appears in the Archie comic and novelization adaptation of the film.
The are from the same universe

"when da dust settles and its all set and done". tf? does he think he sounds smart? lol
There is a whole history behind that, don’t worry about it.
And it’s “when its all said and done” please don’t mis quote me.
The colored mask aren't in mirage and they don't need the multi colored mask because ninjas aren't supposed to look alike it's called bushinojitsu
Its called Bunshin no jutsu .. these are turtles not just ninjas and many would of loved colored bandanas
@@miKeYdOEsNtLiKeiT508 they are ninjas that's their entire existence is training in the ways of bushido to kill shredder aka orroku saki and the foot clan for killing their surrogate father and clans jōnin tang shen and hamato yoshi and to hide from humanity from discovering their existence and to live out the rest of their days in seclusion thats the tragedy of their life their the only anomoly of their kind and will remain assassins. the heroes in a half shell is some Saturday morning cartoon nonsense the tmnt aren't superheroes their unholy abominations against nature forced into a cycle of revenge by their sensei splinter sama they take it upon their selves to help people but initially they are forced to live in seclusion
@@miKeYdOEsNtLiKeiT508 the colored mask are overrated and makes no sense for ninja only obsessed with them colors cause of those cheesey white washed americanized ninja movies with white actor with bad acting dialog in color coded uniforms like military green and brown white yellow green purple red light blue klan robe color uniforms with literally ninja word logo on their headband, g.i. joe snake eyes nunchuck jinx storm shadow, mighty morphin power rangers super sentai, or three ninja movies late 80s 90s clownery.
@@tyronleung5276 bruh.. im a 37yr old man.. please do not explain tmnt to me as if i wasnt a kid when they went mainstream
@@tyronleung5276 you need help lol foh i enjoy all iterations of turtles. Nothing wrong with the colored bandanas.
here can I get these?
Target!
🐢🐢🐢🐢
So, these are Target exclusive?
Hello ! Can anyone out there , tell me , Why , are all the Turtles , the same color?? ... Red , like Raphael .....
Because they are based on the original comics which were in B&W and everyone had the same color bandanna on the covers. It was the horrible 80s toon that gave them the colored bandanas.
