This is a pretty cool concept very well done, love how you can make all 4 Turtles here. Donatello's staff needs to be replaced though, hopefully someone makes an upgrade piece for him.
Remember when you made your video of leader class sentinel prime and you couldn’t find the speaker. I found the speaker on my one when I was transforming him it’s there the front windshield and the bumper goes in robot mode just move then put of the way and you will see the speaker
It looks like you could cut the plastic underneath the cardboard side to slide it out without tearing the whole bubble off, I think I'll try that with mine once I get it. I still think it would have been cooler if they had made it a transtector with a headmaster for each turtle, maybe with a default 'dummy head' based on Metalhead too
Yes you can. I was able to open the cardboard part up and cut just the bottom of the bubble and slide the inner tray out. Then use scissors to clip the plastic ties for the parts stored on backing card.
This was such a missed opportunity to name it Ronin. It would've fit perfectly especially with how the shoulders and waist look. Edit: I think the packaging should've been possible to slide the figure without damaging it.
Only real gripe I have is the 5 fingered hands ,looks rather unnatural given what character it is - hopefully a third party will make 3 fingered replacement hands
I suspect you may be able to stick the front end of the wagon on his back with the peg that folds out, if the spoiler clears it. I was curious about how the front end worked. Mildly disappointing if it only pegs on his arm. Hiss Megatron has a similar part and it's pretty lame. I feel like the bot was intended to evoke Metalhead, but they opted for a generic turtle color scheme to facilitate using him as multiple turtles. Im not complaining by any means, because almost every step of the way, it feels like they went the extra step to add something cool. The front end coming off, the tire on the front is a pizza, the ability to represent all four turtles AND store everything on the bot. Eight year old me is losing his damn mind over this guy.
So it's just the same mold with different colored heads for each of the bros? Kind of a smart cash grab to get the OCD folks who will need to have each version on a shelf. Would have been cooler though to get different vehicles for each bro, blimp would have been rad to see etc. Still, fig and accessories are nice, think you convinced me to hunt this down now.
There’s a line of Gundam type Mechs, they are also doing a transforming line where Leonardo becomes the van, Donatello is either a the Blimp or a Helicopter? I don’t think they’ve announced Raph and Mike yet.
I must say as a TMNT fan I'm kind of disappointed that the demonstration of the character swapping was not done in the "proper" order. The packaging didn't do it right either. I will only accept a listing order that matches the theme song.
Glad I've got this on preorder, it'll look so cool with my Power Ranger Ninja Turtles for the strangest display ever.

I love that he’s a one turtle army! I don’t think you really need more than one of this guy. I love the chonky tough plastic.
Great crossover and great review. Found one today at GameStop and had the plus membership and another $5 off. It was $42 after taxes.. great alt mode.
I definitely need to keep an eye out for some small turtle figurines to display with this.
Someone suggested the Lego ones

You know they could have made a longer bo staff for Don if the roof guns could come off and combine with the existing staff
I got one and preordered a 2nd one to have for alt mode.
Looks great, got one preordered for my son's bday. Agree on the default look being a little too plain for a special release like this.
I'm an OG fan, so I'm gonna display mine with the red mask 👍
Good call.
@peaugh I was a fan of the old black and white comics. Didn't really get into the 80s cartoon. So for me, all the Turtles wear red lol
Hoping this goes on sale, I'd love to have one for each turtle but the $50 price tag is definitely a bit high for that

Toei says Turtle Power!
Toei?

Heatboys is doing that.
@@MnemonicSyntax Those like gundam joints? They don't transform though yeah, just armored sturdy boys with missiles n shit, yeah?

@@peaugh Ooh, not sure I've seen those, off to google I go...

I am one of the dummies that bought 5.
Not a dummy, if you’re happy with them!
