Groundchuck and Dirtbag are two of my favorites (#1 is Scumbug, who is thankfully coming), as I just loved the way their toys looked back in the day. Still do, and these figures look great. Very happy to have them. To note, my Groundchuck shoulder pad came right off, too, and had to be glued on.

It's funny, but these weirder designs really let NECA shine. I was happy enough getting the main TMNT and Foot from them, but these mutants have really been something else. This set is definitely one of their absolute best, and all the colors and paint work really make them stand out. It's making me more excited for the Scumbug and Antrax set.

Turtles creators Eastman and Laird were asked to create some more mutants for the Playmates figures and cartoon, they made 3; a Warthog, a Rhino, and a Bull. The first two were picked and became Bebop and Rocksteady, respectfully. It’s nice they got around to using the bull model.

Great review, and I love the NECA TMNT Cartoon line, but it has some serious issues that make the line almost unworthy of collecting. First and foremost, the quality control issues are absurd. You moved Ground Chuck's shoulder pad once and it fell off. I ordered a Bebop and Rocksteady two pack from the NECA store and it took nearly a year to ship. Once it arrived, Rocksteady's left leg broke off in package. It's unacceptable, quite frankly. There seems to be some leveling out of the distribution issues that plagued the line at first, but the accessibility of people new to the line is an instant turn off.
