    This one looks like the best figure of the Turtles crossover, if not maybe the best in Origins…I want him so bad…. 😮

      I agree! He is definitely one of the best-looking box sets this year for the Turtles of Grayskull season! He's hitting certain Walmarts now! Hopefully, he will be released to certain places like BBTS later. Thanks for checking out the review 👍

      Lol. Thanks for checking out the review! I would honestly say the favorite Turtles of Grayskull box figure is probably the Megator and Krang at this point.

But now, having that Cartoon Adam and Cringer set figures, they make for a good start to the Intro to transform to Cartoon He-man and battle Cat! Yeah, this Mer-Man is awesome looking with the sculpt, colors, and accessories. Another great box figure for the Turtles of Grayskull series!

    I find it interesting how quite a few of these ToG figures seemed a bit blah to me when they were first revealed via promotional pictures but then they look so much better in hand. This is another example, I’m very impressed with this Mer-Man figure! I also like the translucent colors, and adding the tail is an interesting twist on Mer-Man.
    The one thing I noticed immediately, though, and something I still have an issue with, is the head. It just seems too big and looks disproportionate to the rest of the body. The sculpt itself looks great…it just feels like the whole thing should have been shrunk down a bit, otherwise this figure would be perfect!

      I am really impressed with the overall design and accessories with this Turtles of Grayskull Mer-Man figure. The colors, Translucent effects, armor and that alternative colored lady slither tail really makes this figure more interesting and can be used for some cool Mer-Man customs like i showed in this review. Yeah the head is on the larger side. It's really noticeable with the armor off! I guess it's supposed to all part of the Mutantion with Mer-Mans body and head now after being effected by that Toxic ooze! Aside from that, this is really one of the best TOG box figures this year!👍

    He's definitely a highlight! I've tried ordering him through the Walmart app and he's been cancelled twice. Today on the third try they delivered a Mutated Moss Man as a replacement. I'll take him. I bought him and some other figures on pre-order on ebay back in November, the shipper never shipped and apparently I'm just out of the money with no recourse so I'm glad to at least get Moss Man at retail prices. I'm looking forward to seeing the fin on Mermista!

I never preorder anything on eBay. After 30 days, you lose the buyer protection if your item doesn't ship. Ebay should never allow this for Preorders on that site.

      @WhiteLongSword7 I was big into the Vintage MOTU figures as a kid. I had friends who were also big into the Transformers then. You should look into the MOTU Masterverse figures now. That line takes many of the core figures and makes them much more serious. Plus, they are seven inch scale figures.
      The Motu Classics was another great line at the time. It took all the vintage inspired Motu figures and also made them very modernized but yet they resembled the vintage designs. The Origins is just sticking to the core vintage designs but with better articulation and sculpts. They are also involved with the Ninja Turtles crossover now. That explains the mutated look for Mer-Man and Mossman in that series as they were infected with the Turtles ooze from Skeletor and Shredder.
