Was going to say missed opportunity to pose the Mona figure in the iconic "paint me like one of your french girls" poses lol

[@NostalgiaUnboxed]

Haha 😂

[@SuperMarioBrosIII]

I wonder if Neca will release Mona Lisa in he rare human incarnation albeit only briefly shown in her only appearance in the cartoon! 🐢👧❓🤷‍♀

[@NostalgiaUnboxed]

I feel like they will. They are definitely giving us a lot of one time characters so I would kind of expect it.

[@ricardoaquino1283]

I have avoided this set just because I really only wanted the Dirk Savage figure and had no interest in Mona Lisa. After your video, Target owes you a commission for selling this set lol. Mona Lisa looks like a great figure.

[@NostalgiaUnboxed]

Hahaha. That would certainly be nice. 😂 I’m most certain someone would be interested in buying just Mona

[@ricardoaquino1283]

@Nostalgia Unboxed yeah but after watching your video I don't think I'd want to sell her lol. BTW, I recently found your channel and I have really been enjoying your reviews.

[@NostalgiaUnboxed]

@@ricardoaquino1283 thank you so much! I really appreciate that. And I hope you enjoy both from this set. Haha

Haha seriously. Talked me into Ray fillet and now these 2. I hope they are still there when I go back! 😅

[@madisonlynn2419]

The Mona Lisa figure is so adorable!!!! I hope I can find her in stores somewhere 🥹 your review is awesome as always!!

[@NostalgiaUnboxed]

Thank you! I’m certain you’ll have success! I can definitely help you get one if you join me over on Twitter 😁

[@rogerpettet5628]

Have you thought about doing any "how to" videos on posing figures? You get great poses and would love your advice on how to do it.

[@NostalgiaUnboxed]

Oh thank you! I haven’t, but will think about it now! Haha

[@dravendefay07]

I prefer the flattop Turtle van, as I believe it appears more often like that, but it sucks you don't get your version, rip.

[@NostalgiaUnboxed]

Haha! I’ll be fine. I was super late to all of it anyway. And I’ll get over it unless I have an opportunity to give others a hard time about it. Lol

[@rohantherevolution]

I think i actually saw the Mona Lisa episode as a rerun in 1993. Dont remember the Bruce Campbell impersonator though. 🤔🤔🤔

Different episode but still hard to remember all them! They made too many episodes, really. I don’t know how people remember all of these anymore

[@NostalgiaUnboxed]

[@thomasgoesnostalgic]

I think Dirk uses that to catch Mondo Gecko or Punk Frog? I know the foot trap came with a punk frog maybe. I need to get these out of the box 😂 nice review man!

[@NostalgiaUnboxed]

Thanks, man!

[@nicholashill8724]

@@NostalgiaUnboxed It is really interesting that the Rasputin and Genghis two pack came with a smaller version of the same blue laser foot trap. The one that comes with Dirk has a large base to it. NECA easily could have just included the same trap again but they went the extra mile here.

[@dolbyprologik]

Loving all the Haulathon videos so far dude! Did you manage to find Mighty Hog and Rhino Man? I stumbled across 3 on the shelf at one of my Targets, couldn't believe it! Managed to get everything I wanted so far except for the baby Turtles.

[@NostalgiaUnboxed]

Oh, man, those baby turtles are the most sought after. I can’t believe it. I just have Chakahachi & Lotus left for review. The rest are just missed out on I suppose. How have you been? Feels like it’s been a minute

AAah the Strap is loose... i tried to get the gun in the Holster for over 30 min :D then i put it in his Hand.

[@NostalgiaUnboxed]

Haha. A bit annoying for sure

[@Chalor.]

It makes me reassured with the toon artwork actually coming from Nickelodeon....cause it generally sucks. Going back to the beginning when they first started doing these 2-packs I'd wonder how a company that's so passionate about getting Ninja Turtles out to ppl could come up with such subpar art. At least Nickelodeon doesn't muddle in the art affairs when it comes to Mirage & Archie stuff.

[@NostalgiaUnboxed]

Yes!! And the more I have been studying the artwork for a new project I'm working on, the more annoyed I am with the style. It's like a the modern style of Mickey with the hard lines and angles. Barf

[@leodenverrex3819]

@ 4:30 ... cat sifting...

[@TheShowstoppaTMNT]

Look man… I’ve watched quite a few of your videos since about 6 months ago… and the difference, I’m afraid to say, if obvious… You’re having a lot more fun now than when you started! You can tell from your solo banter (which I greatly enjoy), and self mockery thru your stumbles. Don’t ever cut that shit! It’s what makes me laugh and come back lately. You and Hatter are my top 2 fig reviewers - even on stuff I don’t collect or have interest in. Love the work bro. As someone who is tired of the usual schtick from these online reviewers - something fun and refreshing is always good!

[@NostalgiaUnboxed]

Wow, thank you so much!!! This is such a kind comment!

[@Chalor.]

I'd add in one other guy when it comes to Ninja Turtles (and ThunderCats) stuff...Raz Rentals. Gary turns a figure review into a 1 to 2 hour long documentary. _Every_ single detail is meticulously examined...so you don't just know exactly what every accessory is, but a history on whatever character it's from.

[@nicholashill8724]

Bring it to me baby!! 😀

[@nicholashill8724]

@@NostalgiaUnboxed I noticed that there was heavy shading on the green Mona Lisa this time but none on the green Grunt body, (save for his metal straps) last time. Consistently inconsistent again!

@@nicholashill8724 hahaha. Nailed it!

[@nicholashill8724]

@@NostalgiaUnboxed I tend to obsess over the figures that I collect and I'm a stickler for detail. I see in your reviews that you really study each part of the figures and accessories carefully, so you enjoy noticing the little things too!

[@NostalgiaUnboxed]

@@nicholashill8724 absolutely!! I love details and the art of the figures. This is why I’m over Hasbro and bought the Frontline Chaos figure.

Ah, I got it! You sound like Rob Delaney. Got it. That was bugging me.

[@NostalgiaUnboxed]

Veryyyyyy interesting

[@ethanrelmes6636]

What's the clear stand you use during the posing part?

[@NostalgiaUnboxed]

Obitsu stand, but seem to always be out of stock on Amazon now

[@Chalor.]

7:44 They actually made it overall way more accurate without the huge hump on top. Even in the intro, the roof is flat. I can only recall like one or two times in the first season maybe with the roof being humped. Did some good ol' searchin' on the interweb, and only found a couple outta piles of pics from the show w/the hump. So looks like it was just an artist being cheeky once or twice. Regardless, I'm very glad they got rid of that silly lookin' thing...made It look more like a toy. Surprising that you actually preferred it, and think the (more accurate - throwin' that in again 😏) flat top looks dumb. Hey, maybe a 3D printer guy will come along and make a big ol' humpity hump roof and will gift it to you. So in the end, you might be livin' that hump dream. *And another add-on to why the hump looks dumb...cause the van was a real world van, kitted out by Donnie. Just like BA Baracus with the A-Team van. So the hump just makes it come across more zany, and the show's got enough of that.

[@NostalgiaUnboxed]

My memory of this initial design was they got original drawings and sketches/prototypes from the original show and sculpted based on that. It’s just a visual thing for me, but I’m still happy either way lol

[@emkhet7924]

I had my eye 👁 on this set for Mona Lisa. Captain Dirk is a bonus for me. Great review 👍🏿! Gonna get back in the wild too see 👀 if it's still available.

[@emkhet7924]

@@NostalgiaUnboxed I think you're right and good to know. Usually the toon TMNT two packs don't generally sell out as fast. They kinda linger a bit.

However, I do have an Instagram, and technically Facebook...but it's pretty much blank. I just use those two for the figure groups & occasionally buy some custom item. I went from spending maybe a couple hours a week on social media, to like 0 to 2 minutes. But I'll try to find ya on the two I got...then I can get to the bottom of this CHC mystery.

[@NostalgiaUnboxed]

Haha! Thank you! Let me know if you grab a set

[@spadedonemcdysentery2493]

Really love this set but my Dirk came with two right grab hands and was missing his right pistol grip hand. Oh well. Everything else is super cool. Dirk is a great 90s stereotype and Mona’s accessories are great for Donnie’s lair. Everything this haulathon seems to have much smoother articulation as well. I haven’t had a single stuck joint yet. Mona is especially impressive cuz she’s so skinny.

[@NostalgiaUnboxed]

Yes, what’s a great set and experience so far. Dirk is basically a combination of Escape from New York and Judge Dredd haha

[@SuperMarioBrosIII]

@@NostalgiaUnboxed Just to let you know that is Zach and Smash. Zach appeared in about 6 episodes but Smash only appeared in one! Bonus Zach look allot like the former Burger King mascot character Kid Vid remember him? He has blonde hair and wears sunglasses just like Zach. Kid Vid is the leader of the Burger King Kids Club Gang. The commercials featuring Kid Vid and the rest of the gang aired between 1990 to 1999. kzbin.info/www/bejne/ooKwnmNvn8yooaM🍔👑🤴😎🧢

[@Chalor.]

​@@SuperMarioBrosIII From the Ash Williams to Snake Plissken comparisons, those make _so_ much more sense than the allegedly official answer of being inspired from Nick Fury. Nick Fury wasn't some iconic comic character, and David Hasselhoff couldn't even change that. So yeah, the other two characters actually make sense.

Dirk wasn't evil. He thought the mutants were. So he would trap them for the evil alien slug. Who was posing as a millionaire or billionaire human. I'm surprised neca hasn't made the army of mutant hunters. That's an army builder. The leader is the only one's face that is shown.
