Mondo Leonardo Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 1/6 Scale Collectible Figure Video Review

[@MutatedGuy]

I was leaning more towards the Mondo turtles over the Neca movie turtles but not anymore! QC issues for a $150 8inch figure is beyond excusable! Thanks Dan!

[@alejandrovaldez9848]

Me too!

[@garzilla33]

So glad I cancelled my preorders on these turtles. The massive delays led me to believe that these figures were going to have some problems and it looks like I was right.

[@TheBechtloff]

It's amazing how positive a tone Dan keeps when talking about something coming out of the box broken. Or the one Kraang figure where the paint on the eye wore off. He's honest and makes sure we know about these issues but keeps such a positive tone to keep those review figures coming. It's amazing watching him do it honestly. "The paint on the left eye rubbed right off. Nice figure that aside though" "The weapons on this one all broke as soon as I took them out, that's a real shame. Otherwise I really liked it" "Well folks this was a bummer, if came to life shortly after opening it and tried to kill my family. Thankfully I was able to trap it back in the box but that's gonna really limit display options. But otherwise very cool"

[@tyronleung5276]

It's not krang it's a utrom

[@noface5775]

his katana blades look amazing! Wish I could have them for my playmates turtles

“Putting them with all the Leonardo figures.” Raphael; “Am I nothing to you.”

[@ggoldman43]

for this price, the figure should not come with these kinds of issues

[@MaitreMoebius81]

Luckily my figure had none of these issues. I wonder if the other three will arrive all together end of january or every month one.

[@booyakashas5789]

Now I’m going to watch all the other mondo turtle videos

[@Jacobflamecaster]

I would never be able to get all of them but maybe one if I spend my money wisely

[@jayreCurl213]

I love this figure! I'm really excited for the rest of the turtles! I also had QC issues with my figure I received . mainly in the right arm popping off like yours did, the sword handles are so tight to get into the hands that it actually caused paint rub, the alternate red bandana also didn't fit properly onto the ball joint it came coming off/wasn't really able to articulate much with it so I went ahead and asked for a replacement head.

[@maybetoby]

Perfect amalgamation of the Turtles iconic looks, too bad I missed out on them lol

[@justinbartee4788]

He's looks awesome. I can't wait to get mine

[@tboi0957]

Are u sure?

[@-itstherocketeer-]

The right bicep has been turned backward with the tricep in the front the entire video. Might be the issue?

[@razrentals8897]

This was driving me crazy too. I just wanted to yell at Pixel Dan, "fix that right bicep", but couldn't.

[@joker5063]

I have to agree with the previous comment. i was so very close to getting Leo but passed. after seeing the qc issues im glad i did. You gave a fair review and I hope that your concerns about the figure are addressed. Which brings me to a question, do you film your unboxings to aide in replacement of missing or broken parts if needed?

[@TheSkullReviews]

Great review, real bummer about the broken belt on yours, you should ask for a replacement for sure. I mainly collect 1:6 scale myself and have waited years for just this type of figure to be made, I passed on the movie versions made by threezero knowing this was the turtles I wanted on my shelf, really looking forward to them but kinda worried now about those issues. BTW RED BANDANNAS FOR THE WIN!!!

[@brandonmoore8199]

Love mondo' style , hopefully they can pull there QC together

[@SentinelPrimal]

Wow, how have I not known about this? That’s amazing!

[@zodiacprime]

Great review PD, fortunately my figure didn't come with anything broken, but I did notice the right leg joint was a little loose. The only complaint I have (that you didn't mention) is that the foot/ankle joints don't allow for enough forward rotation. That severely limits the posing opportunities for me. I eventually came up with a pose I really enjoy but I had to abandon some great ideas because of this constraint. Here's hoping Mondo can learn and adapt as they go.

[@Ultrazilla]

Ouch, disappointing to hear abouti the QC issues. Hard to get into the game with guns blazing like this and be firing blanks.

[@jarosbodytko6462]

Man for that price there's really no excuse for this many QC issues. Kinda glad I never preordered these, but the Mirage versions aren't exactly my favourites either.

[@timewarped2the80s]

Mondo isn't a Toy company. Mondo mostly specializes in posters. For this figure to have all these flaws they should stick to making posters.

[@facesbylizstjohn]

timewarped2the80s first of all its a toy company and poster company. No mean reply's on my comment.

[@ActionHankBeard]

The figures look great, but c'mon Mondo... These figures are too expensive for them to be arriving broken.

[@Sal_Sal27]

Nuri Durr among their other apparent quirks.

[@thatmygrain7053]

Right

[@jordannodarse7557]

I waited to years for this

[@robertlunarr5100]

If you could only have one. Would you choose this or the neca 1/4 Donnie?

[@rabidhammer31]

There are things I dig a lot but some funky spots for sure. Sucks about anything breaking. Legends collectors are experiencing breaks with the new black suit spidey in the armpit joint. Great review as always, merry christmas Dan : )

[@squizzy6143]

super cool... i love me some tmnt... thanks for sharing Dan

[@ludan2573]

Wow just realized this was uploaded on my birthday 🎂

[@Exar_Kun]

Great vid! I dig the music you use in it. Fits this review perfectly.

[@boclarke6853]

EPIC COMPARISON TIME!!

[@karenkeller3056]

Yeah, I bought this figure too. It's nice, it looks cool, I do like it, but really should only of cost about $60 to $70. I'm sure the license drove up the price, but it's about $80 too much. Also, Dan, did you contact Mondo about replacing your broken Leo? I'm curious if they'd help out since it is such a pricey item.

[@andrucruz3751]

This is awesome they did a good job on my favorite ninja turtle Leonardo

[@Metalpug79]

That's a major bummer about the broken strap on the back.

[@jonathanmiller3622]

His right arm bicep is posed backwards. I don't think that would be the reason for the forearm popping out so much though.

[@jacobniehaus]

Yeah, this is really bad on Mondo's part for amidst the delay and the price point to be getting issues like these. Sorry to hear that Dan, there's really no excuse for something like that. Thank goodness for NECA.

[@polianadefredinio]

dude, you need to turn around his right bicep, the triceps was facing front, maybe the reason why it's falling is due to the shape of the elbow articulation that was meant to be in the back...

[@trapierjervay46]

Uh, Dan; you have the bicep backwards.

[@stammdersabinerinnen]

ich hab vor ein paar tagen auch eine von den Mondo Figuren ergattern können freu mich Mega es ist der Leonardo

[@kevintaylor3792]

Bummer. I pre-ordered the Donatello figure well over a year ago (which has not arrived as of this post) and now I'm worried about the quality. Hopefully feedback regarding Leo will save Don! If I knew NECA was going to make that Movie Don figure I would have held out for that.

[@brandonf6169]

My belt arrived broken as well And also his left leg refuses to bend at the waist and I'm afraid to push too hard because I don't want it to break. Very frustrating😡

[@MultiSmithy88]

Hi Dan have u got raph quarter scale in trench coat i wanna get tht

[@thefont9]

Awesome sculpt awesome size, but hard to spend that kind of coin if the fig is not really high quality. NECA is the superior product.

[@Jesterclown17]

Picked up a Mikey figure for around $90 on the BBTS, here's hoping they ironed out all the problems...

[@horrorman2269]

Great review! Love the comparisons! Yeah I was a little let down by these as well. Maybe getting the first one out there will give them more confidence. The broken sheath is terrible though, I would contact customer service.

[@goldleader2804]

Wow. Almost was going to buy one this weekend at my local Indy toy store. Have Mondos Iron Giant products and love them. But this is a tad of a let down.

[@sleeplessknight99]

Yipes! Glad I didn't pull the trigger on these. Neca should scale up their classic turtles and make a mint.

[@williamfrankmason1983]

You are one cool guy love watching your videos love your toys wish i had them all.

[@Jrod23_BayArea]

Great review dan....I guess I'll wait till mondo fixes this problem and hopefully re-release this figure, or just wait till they make a knock off and hopefully it's better then the original lol...hope mondo sends you a better one 👌🏼

[@diazdiaz7224]

cuanto te costo???

[@zilvertron]

They need to do Mondo Gecko, just because of the name

[@LiamTheBoy1234]

I was thinking of that!

[@moeinagreen6768]

Why did you can shredder Master are you working for the foot clan

[@tboi0957]

Hey mondo should do the scabbard's like revotech come in the with the scabbard's in the box and then u put it in the pegs.

[@rcny80]

finally!!!!!!!!! i wait for this months dayssss weekss!!!!! thanks dan!!!

[@daddydank7490]

Can you get this on amzon

[@funkifroggi1727]

They should do a 1:12 version.

[@mikkoxB]

my figures left arm is a bit loose too

[@Batman25JM]

I'd be mad with these QC issues on a $10 figure. There is no way that this is acceptable for $150 figure. I'm glad I canceled my pre-order.

[@hectormora6165]

Awesome figure

[@marclussier2042]

It's suposed to be comics meet the original action figure, see it?

[@memesablazin2273]

TMNT Wish For Christmas : 1: NECA 2 : SH 3 : MONDO

[@Gunnerererer]

I prefer the black and white version with all red masks.

[@guillermorendon2579]

Thanks a million for the review Pixel Dan. I just saved 600 bucks deciding not to purchase these. Let's hope their yet to be solicited MOTU figures fair better.

[@PlayedWith]

Mondo should probably stick to making movie posters. I find it cute they're trying to get into the action figure market, and of course they think their designs are worth $150...not sold. I'd rather spend my money on more Figuarts, a company that knows what they're doing.

[@tgonzalez1983]

Good review.. I hope the Raphael i ordered doesnt come damaged :(

[@marcoscindy]

it will, might as well return it before u open it, they all have issues

[@NitroCigarette]

''They all have issues'' Even though only ONE is out right now... lol.

[@optibotimus]

You read my mind LOL

[@marcoscindy]

optibotimus they will all have same mold, just watch and see, if first one comes out like this, what makes u think they will fix issues, why didn't they fix this one before they released it?

[@optibotimus]

Leatherface Maybe you should ask them. I'm not them. It's very possible they'll have the same mold but that doesn't mean they can't refine the process since they will have even longer before the next figure comes out to "get it right". To say that "all" will have issues is silly since we don't know what they'll do with the other ones

[@nicholighkun]

You need to rotate that right bicep Dan! You've got the tricep facing forward! : /

[@marcuswalker3409]

I want that Leonardo toy!

[@leroyjenkinspr-_-7203]

Hey Dan remember the Jakks Pacific giant Michelangelo? So, I was at Toys R Us a few days ago and I saw one of those. But there were also figures of a Giant Leo!!!

[@yauyuso]

Mikey was the first release and about a year later Jakks made Leonardo. Don't know if they will make Raph or Donnie though since Leo was released last year.

[@thefont9]

they are at target and were recently 50% off as well. Almost went for it but then I remembered my wife would murder me.

[@yauyuso]

Mario Fontana The shell opens to technically its a giant fancy storage

[@facesbylizstjohn]

Go on Walmart there will slightly more toys out there. Tmnt toys.

[@juliepios6712]

Recaf.Decaf yeah but maybey

[@logancrawford88]

You have two left bicep pieces, that's why that arm keeps popping off at the elbow!

[@facesbylizstjohn]

Great review. You sill are the best I must say. One more thing: I love the figure 😃😍❤❤💙❤💖💞💞mondo is doing a very good job! Not good great job!

[@battosaipr]

Damm cool figure but too expensive for what you get in the end, im happy with my neca 90s figure for a bit less 🤗

[@mikemedal]

looks like Leonardo is circumcised. nice...

[@dianesmith3118]

.....what? How us that...nice?....smh

[@Rehman_Syed]

Why would somebody sell a broken toy for 150

[@mr.vgamestoys8066]

awesome figure and review man

[@boclarke6853]

I received mine today... thankfully didn't have the QC issues you have...sorry about that Danny...that is a horrible feeling, especially with this costing $150...After checking mine out...these really shouldn't be more than $100...debating keeping my order for the rest now 😒

[@ArielAleXCo]

It has the right arm backwards

[@abepeterson7045]

These are cool I want the Donnie

[@theknightrider3095]

#Leonardo thank-you for the video pixel Dan

[@jacobmidro1357]

Mondo owes everyone an apology

[@Smodlee]

Ya I think u will pass on these that just don't cut it for me the neca 1/4 scale tmnt now those are way better

[@abepeterson7045]

I can see the complaints on this figure but I still like it

[@memesablazin2273]

Nevermind about the MONDO figures.

[@MALDINGAS]

the right arm is reversed, the triceps is in the front instead of the bicep, you should rotate it.

[@1m1337noSh1t]

10 inches, very large, well thank you

[@chrisdaugherty8265]

For that price and that size of figure, you should NOT have QC issues. Broken?! Uh yeah, I would return it.

[@djmajin]

I'm so glad I cancelled this before it came out and got my money back. Money up front, tons of delays and now bad QC. If NECA and Figuarts didn't come out this year and this was the big TMNT figure for the year I could forgive but no way with the rest that we got. YoOu can't delay and then have bad QC across the board.

[@ahmodrobinson8084]

Cool

[@zinqhq.]

time to grab the super glue lol

[@MorKmbt]

Anyone wish they could make 3 inch figures this articulated

[@mbkolli]

I am not saying that these mondo turtles are bad than these neca turtles but actually they are awesome

[@theultimatecomicgamer8633]

dude I'm you biggest fan

[@arnoldtoledo589]

im glad i didnt pick this series up from mondo. Neca's 1/4 movie turtles costs less and tons more satisfying to have and hold. i bet if neca upsizes their classic turtles to 1/4 scale it'll still beat mondo's in terms of price and quality. nice try though Mondo.

[@pictureframerate4540]

Toys should be for play this is what happens when I try to take them seriously broken belt arm head tight arm loose companies need to make playtime toys

[@lipranditoys]

Uhm.. Looks like a bad copy of the ones Neca did several years ago.

[@SpoonDude]

liprandi It IS based on the same art/source material....

[@sagatbalrog]

How do u know splinter is a baby rat. Maybe it's an old rat

[@sharifw1627]

Radical Dan please do the four green dudes

[@Stablemable2]

Great review. I'm a TMNT fan but the price doesnt fit the product. Mondo Disappointment. $14.99 at best.

[@shadowstormstudios519]

aw i'm so sorry it came out the way it did man can u get a refund?

[@kimberlysmith9218]

this is so cool I'm like tmnt Leo is the best like am I right

[@flezo83]

Very nice sculpt....but too damn expensive and too damn big.....i like the NECA figures much much more........

[@dianesmith3118]

$150?!? Wtf? $75 would be stretching it...and for it to have the issues it does is just a shame because aesthetic-wise it's awesome.

[@JOHNN01.82]

I would of sent it back straight away and demanded my money back
