I’ll have to look when I open mine from BBTS if it comes with that throwing affect piece. Great video, Yimbo!

[@YimboReviewsEverything]

I’m curious! I also think maybe it could be something included in an accessory pack…we can only hope!

[@timpagan71]

So glad I picked up these Mezco Turtles. Awesome Yimbo! 🙌

[@YimboReviewsEverything]

So happy you got them Mayor!! They're the best!

[@AutomaTom1939]

Great review! I was a little miffed that Raph comes with the classic katar/fist dagger from the Playmates line but can't easily sheath it on his back. Seems like a missed opportunity! It'll fit in the tonfa loop, but not well.

[@YimboReviewsEverything]

Thank you very much!! And I totally agree that was a missed opportunity considering it **looks** like it should fit in there perfectly…all they would’ve needed to do is open up the bottom (which maybe if I get brave one day I’ll try out myself)

[@shadowbird]

Really great individual review. I really like mine. The only small complaint. I have they do have a hard time holding their accessories.

[@YimboReviewsEverything]

Yeah it depends on the hand and what piece I’m trying to use. I actually struggled with him just holding a sai last night when I was just posing him up while watching tv. Really appreciate you taking the time to check it out!

[@3rdlegend445]

Some random photos going around internet claiming parts are stressing and cracking for these figures. NO ALARM though because it’s only one individual that said they had an issue with the quality PLUS , with the way I see some of these “reviewers” handling these figures (with no care at all like 4 year olds), they are bound to break under all that extreme friction and tension they use when trying to see how much they can get out of a joint

[@YimboReviewsEverything]

I specifically talk about my toy anxiety with figures since I just buy one of everything and I want to make sure they'll have some longevity...I did see the one instance of a shoulder joint breaking, but again, that's why I take it slow when moving these guys around...they're not Legends! Thanks for checking out the review!

Absolutely Raphtacular

You get me hahaha…thanks my man!!

Where's the sh figuart turtles?

[@JorgeSanchez-xx3fx]

The hype is real. These are great interpretations of turtles in toy form, but not the best. The NECA The Last Ronin figures are far superior.

[@bloodandguts88]

Said no one ever

[@YimboReviewsEverything]

The Last Ronin line is absolutely amazing...I think I'd still take the Mezco set over them but it's closer than most people would expect

[@johnny10grasp3]

Where's the sh figuart turtles?

[@YimboReviewsEverything]

I don't have any...sad face

[@johnny10grasp3]

I picked up Raphael for 50$ and I don't feel like he's worth it.
