[@MonsieurJimjams]

For anyone that wants to know where he comes from, he's in the final issue of the Return to New York arc. A bunch of them ambush Raph as he tries to find the Shredder, and is saved by Leo.

[@tompollockjr144]

Yeah, seeing them side by side... That blue should have been consistent across the Foot Clan members.

[@Frank_D]

8:05 It's most commonly referred to as a three-section staff. It was originally created in China, where it's called sanjiegun. In Japan it's called sansetsukon. 🙂 It looks like they at least partially reused the arms from the 4-armed Shredder Clone and just remolded the wrist piece, which would explain the ease with which the wrists can pop off. I imagine the purple "blood" pieces from the Shredder Clone probably fit on this figure as well.

[@megaamod8402]

2:55 He reminds me The Shadow Boss from Battletoads and Double Dragon Game. He is Blue, He has Spikes and Red eyes. These guys should be in his Gang.

[@SOCIALMEDIAENTERTAINMENT365]

He's got those star wars JAWA eyes 😆 🤣 😂

[@Gr8Binski17]

I know it was a poke but I believe the reason the gauntlet comes off a little easy is like you mentioned earlier, it may be reuse from the four armed clone

[@Chalor.]

6:10 The thing that no one says is they had skin! I didn't know the etiquette was calling them the red versions, as I had no idea originally what ppl were referring to. I just thought they were normal humans wearing clothes versions....as opposed to the blue skined/blue clothing shadowed lazy digital inker versions.

[@JustAlanDoingAlanThings]

You were right about the buck. That's why your gauntlets are popping off. Due to the amputated alternate arms😉 I'll wait for a normal coloured one. Also FYI shipping for Lair to UK is $155😢

[@dubuyajay9964]

Yeah, the Red Arms would be ideal to put on the other Crab Shredder to show it got blood on them from combat.

[@EpykkDyzastur]

When it comes to color uniformity, the only one I can excuse is the Battle Damaged Shredder. He’s actually supposed to be wearing a blue outfit as to where the other’s are supposed to be a representation of how they appear in the shadows.

[@grune7881]

Why is he supposed to be wearing a blue outfit? That's IDW coloring. If you see the original source material from mirage it's red. Issue 10 also issue 21 clone/mutant shredders are red.

[@EpykkDyzastur]

@@grune7881 This is a “color classics” variant and it’s exactly how he appears in those comics.

[@Fuzzy_Barbarian]

I don't even mind the colours, but you're right, them not matching is so weird. If they did, you could get a nice and varied army going that still feels uniform. But with this... like, did the Foot tailor mess up and hope nobody would notice? Still a cool figure, though. I'm, really hoping they re-do the Foot Soldier and Enforcer in the battle damaged Shredder's blue, which looks the best to me.

[@NostalgiaUnboxed]

You know, to be in fashion with the Lair’s feature or removing stuff, you should try removing the windows and doors from your street scene

[@THEAnimeHERO]

It seems that the Mirage Foot Enforcer inspired the design for TMNT 2012 version of Chrome Dome.

[@jamespaul6315]

“Bro you cant complain its a kidzzz toy action doll !” (Lol satire to be clear 😂)

[@ZeeHarv]

Constable zoovio from the sequels is who he looks like

[@impossiblepie]

I wish all these soldiers were the same shade as Shredder.

[@reiddutchess9955]

Wish they would make the "normal" color first, but this figure looks great!

[@AlphaProto]

I wonder if you can put Shredder's head on that figure to make a Super Shredder?

[@SlaughterCinema1]

I was planning on doing three of the foot soldiers to go on display with him. That change in color might bother me a little I'll have to see

[@Randomcrapname80]

They remind me a bit of GI Joe Night creepers

[@AkuMayfair]

Yes, all of the figures you show are colored as they where in the IDW Color Classics reprints… although (to the best of my knowledge) the issue with the foot enforcer was never printed in color before the IDW books.

[@Cowah]

I think you're right there, but considering Shredder and the regular Foot ninjas are in red and gray, and they also made the Foot Elite in red and gray, it's not too big a jump to assume the Enforcers should also be in red and gray. And I'd put money on NECA releasing exactly that at some point in the near(ish) future.

[@brianroche9171]

The color disparity is really odd. Love the figure but would appreciate if he matched the recent Foot Soldier and Battle damaged Shredder release.

[@spaceape9606]

I think Neca will release a lot of this stuff in Mirage colours eventually.

[@coleslegoworld]

They are doing the foot soldier in mirage colors again

[@garageguy3096]

@@coleslegoworld where was this confirmed? seems I missed it

[@therock212006]

“I think this is zero eight???” Lol number 9 buddy. Lol just giving you a hard time you are awesome. 😝

[@TMNT_1987_]

The darker the blue the harder the opponent lol Foot very light blue, enforcer dark and light blue, shredder dark blue

[@SirMoeThe2nd]

Dude good review! I have no knowledge of this guy but i dunno ive had my eye on him. You're the first to review him and just solidified my decision to snag it. So thanks, and for that I'm subbed too 🍻

[@AutomaTom1939]

I grew up reading the original Mirage run, so I definitely prefer the red and gray colors to the IDW blue! I know nostalgia plays into it, but I feel like they're objectively better--the color variation feels more natural. You can see sculpted fingernails on this figure, like it's supposed to be exposed skin--the all blue just feels like a variant to me. I'm not sure if it's a licensing thing or what, but it's my only knock against this line. Not a deal-breaker, but definitely not my preference.

[@ethanchastain9282]

The guy from the 2012 show wore a outfit like this before he turned into dogpound

[@OverBenthousand]

He reminds me of the giant shredder clone, yep. Also, paint never bothered me with the Foot.. maybe I wasn’t paying attention? But now it’ll probably bother me lol. I have 4 of the normal foot.. So I may just get two and put them behind my Shredder and Foot.

[@Robd07]

That figure line up of the different shades of blue is a joke! Im not even going to bother getting them. Def saves me in not having to army build!

[@NotBoringFilms]

necas qc is very sus lately. i got 2 aprils with misaligned pegs in the knees(one one each fig), and i just got a synja with a stuck shoulder. the shoulder swivels but wouldnt raise to the side. no mater how long i water temp’d it it wouldnt budge. i ended up snapping the shoulder peg trying to get it loose. so what the hell.

[@Plvcky]

That dude from Bull Airs also posted on his IG that the gauntlets are crazy loose

[@ytrefugee113]

A great looking figure, however, not a fan of the color choice. I know its supposed to be IDW colors, (i wouldve preferred mirage coloring) and "shadowy", but it just doesnt do it for me. It might not have been as bad if they wouldve put more black shading. At least match up the coloring across figures! I custom painted one of the regular foot soldiers and it is decent, just wish they would rerelease these figures, (including shredder), in the OG mirage colors

[@20rileybob]

He's pretty dope! I've been holding off on building a foot army. Not the biggest fan of the blue look, keeping fingers crossed 🤞 they do a re-release of the Red Foot Clan to match along the Shredder Clones or get some kind of uniformity with a color scheme.

[@20rileybob]

@@TurtleC0mic For real? That would be fantastic!

[@jonathanhodapp8735]

Hatter you know these are for children 14 age they don’t care about what version of the blue. Lol I’ll kidding aside I feel you. I wish they all were the same color. I just tell myself the shade of blue depends on years of service the fader it is the older they are.

[@Buzzed4LightYears]

It does bug me they don’t all match. I also wish they were the original mirage colors as well.

[@megaamod8402]

Nice Figure! I'll buy two of these :D

[@mattiassogna3058]

This fig is freakin cool looking!

[@ozzy9226]

I got lucky at target today and found the mm sewer lair set so I'm good on the neca $300 shoebox if anything I'll just build off of that

[@LuisSanchez-ru1qu]

We need a custom foot enforcer that paint is wild hatter 🤪

[@redboone1509]

I thought he was the 4 armed shredder clone on the thumbnail

[@KootenaiKing]

LoL just skimping by qc with the arms that pop off. One of those "surprise features" Johnny Mark-Up was referring to. Edit: what if the arm popped off for a blade to be placed in its spot...?

[@At-sr1ry]

My wanderer and mirage Raphael’s whole left arm are loose and pop off. It’s very annoying

[@KootenaiKing]

Damn that sucks about the Wanderer, dude just came out.

[@KootenaiKing]

@@TurtleC0mic can pledge spray work...?

[@happiaxxident]

Oh man. Cool for sure but bummer the blues aren’t uniform. He’s also not as tall I thought he was gonna be.

[@DefinitiveToys1]

It would make me very happy if they did a rerelease or new non-battle damaged standard Shredder. I missed out on the loot crate unfortunately. The loot crate version is very spensive on the after market.

[@damnedash9526]

These odd blue colors, and the Skittles Shredder Clones set, are all actually based on the color schemes used in the IDW printed re-prints of the Mirage stories in their "Color Classics" books, which give color for the first time to stories that were always just black and white. That's where these colors are coming from. If you look at any original colored works, like cover art or posters, from the old Mirage series, you'll see that the Shredder and the Foot Ninjas are in maroon red with flesh arms. Those were released in that elusive Foot Box Set from NYCC, which a lot of us missed and is now WAAAY too expensive for my wallet, but it looks like we are getting a re-release of those Foot Ninjas thank God! I am seriously praying that we get that same maroon Shredder to go with it, especially since we're getting Casey in his proper red shirt and the maroon Ninjas. So, there are two color schemes being release: IDW Color Classics scheme, and original Mirage color scheme! Hopefully this follows suit for a lot of releases to come because I really just want my Mirage originals. Lol

[@coleslegoworld]

Bradford from 2012 was a foot enforcer Maybe that's what your thinking about?

[@doco8627]

Reminds me of a Star Wars inquisitor. Thanks for the review

[@Talisac80]

At this point I'm surprised neca didn't sell a version of him without hands as a whole new figure. Speaking on the paint wait until they release all these blue ones in red to match the others.

[@SondicoDenann]

50 shades of blue!

[@jontuell5338]

Blue for BestBuy blue? Idk, but companies do that alot w/ exclusives. Look no further than Target. Gr8 work

Funny enough my foot enforcers from ali express are solid then the wanderer best buy exclusive feels reallly brittly!

[@turtlevibes]

He reminds me a bit of Durge from Star Wars. I wonder if that is who you were thinking of?

[@heroesytumbas]

2:55 Not SW Hatter, haha, with this color it's extremelly similar to the nunchaku tank character from the snes game The ninja warriors, which got an update a few years back as The ninja warriors once again. That's one of the reasons I like it.

[@jonathanhodapp8735]

I have to ask what is more controversial: has lab vehicle a vengeance with a top, bottom, middle. Has lab rancor with cardboard cut out and 3-D printed bones, Mattel creations, Jurassic Park with goat four a $300 as you say shoebox with no top, no action feature, no goat.

[@stevewegling8070]

Hatter, in my best gate keeper/comic book guy voice- It is called a tri-section staff🤣😉 oh and there is probably a formal name I am not hip too. I do like just about everything about this Enforcer. The extra feature must be something special Neca is doing for all their TMNT merchandise, take that Hasbro!😁 I for one do not mind the varied blues in the Mirage line. What would make it better to me would be more high lights and some other color accents like grey, black , or silver. The cell shading is fantastic which noone does better then Neca. I have one ordered but I will have to wait 'cause my order has yet to be fulfilled. Nice outro pics glad to see there is a break in the Lair debate. ✌️

[@AkuMayfair]

Official name of the tri section staff is sanjiegun in Chinese or sansetsukon in Japanese.

[@artforpizza]

really cool weapons tho, almost worth the buy just for that

[@andrewmoeller1987]

Neca should pick one shade of blue. Due to that, I'll pass.

[@POWERPRIME01]

Dose it this use the same tooling that four arm clone shredder? even the same mold. So that would explain the hand popping off.
