These are probably my favorite TMNT figures. No cap. Absolutely gorgeous. I wish these designs are used for the next tv series or video game (I know Rogen’s Mutant Mayhem movie won’t look anything like this… sigh).

I’m a big Mezco collector and these guys are my grail from them. I’ve been a TMNT fan since I was a kid and now my fav toy company giving them a go was an instant preorder. I have many Mezco figures and never had any issues with any of them but Catwoman’s elbows. After collecting most of NECA Tmnt I sold the entire collection because of quality issues. Between these and the Fury line, I’m 10,000% good on turtles 😊

$100 each. Seems about right for Mezco. I just want to know how the weapons store on the figures, they do seem to have pockets...They are including some optional soft goods and plenty of options. I'm loving their version of The Crow Eric Draven! And I've bought a few other figures from them, it's just that $400 at once stings.

I've been trimming down my collection to only movie/tv stuff. I was excited for this until the actual reveal. The teaser stuff had me thinking we would be getting movie inspired figures which is not the case. I will say Mezco has become terrible for their promo images. Everything is photoshopped and you know you are never going to get 90% of the poses in these pics. No way Leo is gonna be able to pull off that sword draw, the fist can't rotate that far with the peg in the way. No way you are getting that Mikey pose, his hand is literally across his body and over his other shoulder. I doubt he will also be able to hold a pair of chucks in one hand like the hoodie pic. Not a fan of the Plunderling/Popeye body proportions for these figures either. My personal biggest turn off is that "In disguise" pic where the hands practically reach the ankles and the stands should have each turtle on them. I do hope that they add in something special for Mezco, a removeable shell section on the back where you can plug in the stand for dynamic fighting poses

We’ll most of us don’t like movie or tv so it is what is. I for one love this. Way better than anything neca has put out cause I like my turtles form the comics. Not the movies or cartoons. So just move along and stay with your necas instead of being sad it wasn’t made for you.

@@vicdamon3551 "We’ll most of us don’t like movie or tv " so glad you can claim to speak for others when I clearly spoke only for myself and my opinion. I do enjoy the movies and TV stuff like the recent Crow, Alien and Predator. Lil tip, you may not know as much as you think about others as I own exactly Zero Neca figures. Maybe in the future they won't give us teaser images that basically copy movie posters, that could avoid such misconceptions in the future

What makes this worth it is unique body sculpt for each figure, and individually colored masks. Their body types, tho, I'm not a fan. I like the ones that SH Figuarts or Super 7 made. Anyway, this is still a nice set.

These are intriguing! At first I wrote them off since I'm focusing on NECA and Super7, but I'm starting to consider these, especially with the added clothes to bring out their individual personalities. It's interesting that they're listed as being about 6.5" apiece, which seems out of scale for Mezco, especially since the turtles are generally pretty short. The larger size is appealing, though...

Anthony, the individual sculpting is what makes the price tag somewhat palatable...do not get me wrong $300.00 would be better..the FF set should be dropping anytime now. Same situation alot of character specific sculpts. I do not splurge often so let these guys impress me.✌️

The individual sculpts is actually only the smallest portion why the cost is what it is. It comes down to more so because of the paint. All manufacturers I know and work with always say the paint is what eats up cost.
