[@madhatterreviews6705]

So apparently the bandaged arm swaps out on the right arm, not left (although it's really just the forearm that gives it away). Also, I guess technically raph is the one with the more scars on the chest and the grimace. Although I dont mind rolling with an evil smile Raph. Thanks for letting me know peeps!

[@aaronritchie7926]

Damn you sir! Making me scream at my phone like this! I’ll never forgive you for this! 😂

[@MrYac-ie8ie]

yeah, felt weird not giving Mikey the smile. but as you said who cares as long as you're happy with the setup.

[@hanimefti6562]

I was like “how does he not see that one isn’t RAPH!” Lol

[@therealguru9019]

I was thinking the same. To me it was a no brainer. Now Leo was the hard one😂.

[@madhatterreviews6705]

@@therealguru9019 hahaha My giant toon Raph has the evil smile head, it's not my fault!

[@razumtazum3246]

As soon as these come out with the different colored bandanas and skin tones, I'll be all over this. These figures look awesome!

[@tj.henderson]

Like 2003?

[@VenicioKriStylz]

You can tell which turtle they are based off of the heads. If you take off the head sculpt of each of them, there should be a letter in the inner side of the head to signify which turtle it is.

[@mommasaidpopyouout6302]

Regarding who is who, if you pop the heads off each turtle has their first initial embossed on the inside. Mikey is the one with the most teeth showing.

[@spacecastleshow]

Bingo. Great call.

[@MOTUprints]

best info yet, amazing bro! thank you

[@therock212006]

If you lift their heads up, it has each of their initials inside that says who is who. I just got done rewatching this video and wanted to let you know. Cause you’re truly amazing!!! Thank you for all you do. 😉

[@M_Romano]

I think Raph is on the left because of all the scrapes and cuff marks on his chest/front plate of shell

[@kaydee1485]

Actually you can look at the back of the box to figure it out

[@mattdavis4056]

That would be my guess as well

[@CarlosSoto-xe2we]

I think the same

[@JonRunner88.]

Ya I noticed that too he's got the most scuffs all over his front plate and he's got a more angry look going on

[@eBayScoops]

@@kaydee1485 🤦‍♂️people are slow. Use your 🧠

[@brandir3988]

I really appreciate the in-depth reviews you give, love seeing all angles of the figures and the box art. Not to mention the links for these in the previous videos! These are absolutely ridiculously tempting. When I started collecting TMNT I told myself it wasn't going to get out of hand and I find that it's rapidly getting out of hand..

[@NostalgiaUnboxed]

The turtles look SO good that I feel like I couldn't even focus on the accessories when you were showing them.

[@moescatobotcollects]

They do look snazzy

[@Plvcky]

I think Raph has way more scratches on his shells than the other turtles

[@Collect2Disconnect]

He be scrappin

[@Plvcky]

@@Collect2Disconnect thousand percent 👊🏽💥

[@267BR]

or you could look at the back of the box and see that it isn't raph 😂😂😂

[@isaiahcruz3260]

@@267BR If you pop off the turtles' head, you can see the initials. The scratched up body does belong to Raph.

[@geraldlouis4766]

Bro this has been the best review for these figures yet I'm a fan of the channel you put me on to mercari got most of my figures from over there especially my neca stuff so bro I appreciate you appreciate you

Love the support brother!

Congrats on 12k subs my guy! 🎉 🥳 Perfect review video of the 4 Lawson bros to celebrate the sub milestone. Well done 👍

[@gregneedham3795]

Need them. City at War is the best TMNT story of all time. Hits home reading as an adult and how much of it is about trying to move on.

[@Marco76o]

Dope review mad hatter. Planning on hunting these this week 🤙🏼

[@robertalessandrini8773]

Great video! the box art is amazing and the figures look great!! I remenber you reviewing the Turtles in disguise a couple of years ago how excited you were but you definitely were pumped for this 4 pack.🏆

[@hugomonstah]

yo man ur excitement gots me juiced!!!!!

[@drewcee_]

There was an old comic book cover, where Michelangelo was in the background, and he was squatting down, holding his nunchucks, and you seen his black silhouette, and the outline of his smile. And it was this same type of evil looking smile that he uses just like in the 2000 series. His smile looked a little evil sometimes. Plus, Raphael is the one who has the menacing face, which makes sense because he has the most scarring and battle damage on him out of all the turtles.

[@alyssahansen1400]

Which issue does the cover you are talking about appear on?

[@Fuzzy_Barbarian]

Given how they're packaged, I wanna say you're right with the one you picked to be Raph, since the disguise and sai are closest to him. Though I kinda like the angry head more for Raph, because... it's Raph.

[@JoseHernandez-on6ly]

Got mine today at Target in Chicago! Love your reviews!

[@forestthomer938]

I can’t get my donetello’s bicep to twist. I’ve used a blow dryer , debating if it’s worth dipping in boiling water or do I just ignore it since it’s not really super important.

[@chewmaniac86]

"Shouldn't you be killing camp counselors?"😂😂😂😂 great review!!!

[@kasu4]

Dope review, but you were right at first. Mickey has the creepy smile and if you look closely, Raph has more scratches around the front and back.

[@elche8177]

Man, love seeing the availability of these. It's like EVERYONE is finding them which is a welcomed change. Too bad that toon accessory pack wasn't the same. Still hunting or waiting for the restock or Neca online order. Refuse to pay the extra via Ali as that is my in case of emergency break glass option 😂

[@terrancemayes2192]

How much do they cost?

[@n87solidsnake]

legit in awe of these dudes. I searched all over and finally got em

[@steve9021oh]

06:58 Raph is easy to tell! His plastron is more heavily scratched than Mikey!

[@reiddutchess9955]

I very luckily got this set from my corrupt Target, super pleased with it. As always, killer review Hatter!

[@AirMasterNeo]

Hey did any ones splinter and foot solider shipped? Allie express?

[@sethtacular]

Hey Mad Hatter thanks for the great video and these Turtles look amazing! Quick question, which would you say is better and worth it the mirage turtle 4 pack or the turtles in disguise 4 pack?

[@MonsieurJimjams]

That backdrop is amazing. I wonder if that's a subtle hint to what comes next from NECA...

[@TheDragonJesse]

How does one get these?

[@JoePants]

I agree with everyone saying the one with more scratches is Raph, and the smiling one is Mikey, but that's not how they're packed or picture on the back of the package.

[@LF-IV]

Those look fantastic! The box looks like it is in great shape. I should have jumped on the Ali Express train like everyone else.

[@jrport4838]

I would display three of them behind the last ronin unarmored . Great review might need to get these too

[@dcb6729]

When will they put this up for pre order? Is it exclusive to a store or what?

[@AndrewSmith-id7zf]

I missed the pre-order and initial release of these earlier this year. Are these going to be released in stores like Wal-Mart of Best Buy sometime in 2024? Have been waiting a long time for something like these.

[@georgepasymowski2508]

Damn dude you better buy that kraven guy a free dinner for finding this for you.

[@someguy13]

Any chance you tried swapping the 08 head to the 23 body? I was planning on attempting myself just for a different set of looks. Those smiles look a bit flat to me tbh.

[@anthonyboodram608]

These designs remind me so much of the 2003 TMNT (I think they may have had those designs from that show based on these Jim Lawson designs?), I feel like NECA should do an accessory pack with alternate heads with the different colored bandannas as a reference to that series since I doubt NECA or another company is going to make any merch based on that era of the Turtles (which is really unfortunate)

[@brennanrobillard3046]

Man if neca was to do a 2003 turtles figures and characters from that series. I would buy it instantly!

[@charleswenger5889]

Hey Mad Hatter, I can’t wait for these. I ordered mine from AliExpress after I saw your video. Thank you very much for the recommendation. How long did your set take to come?

[@erasmosalgado619]

in your opinion witch do you like more the toons or these?

[@johnbest1978]

These figures are beautiful...excellent work on this awesome set.

[@dcb6729]

Can someone explain to me when these figures go up for pre order? Are they store exclusive or what?

[@BriarShinn]

Raph is the one with more battle damage/sketch marks on his shell and belt

[@madhatterreviews6705]

Thanks man, made the switch!

[@ratface44]

Finally they made my Ninja turtles. I guess I'm into buying NECA Ninja turtles now. I started off with the last Ronin and 100% of getting these! So excited!

[@Mike_Fahmy]

@Mad Hatter Reviews Awesome Review Hatter, as always. Yeah this Mirage Turtles 4 pack looks amazing, can't wait to get mine 🤞

[@matto.827]

I found if you pop the heads off, the letter of their name is engraved on the inside of the head. The smile one is Mike.

[@BrianHallmond]

they could have given more uniqueness. Like all the bandanas are going over the same shoulder. Raph could be a little bigger than the others. The shells could be more unique.

[@beaglegod1]

For $150.00 I 👍 agree.

[@johnloz3906]

I found one today. There were about 5 people looking at it. Kept putting it back on the shelf due to the price. Once they all had their share of molesting the box, i went for dirty seconds and just grabbed it. Felt like a rockstar walking back to the register while they all watched me pay for it. lol had to take my pocketknife out as I walked back to my truck just in case they rushed me in the parking lot. lol anyways, i feel like i just purchased a set of predators cause they all look the fkn same.

[@Do_i_amuse_you]

No words, just can't wait to get mine 😢

[@markthompson8246]

Hopefully NECA makes a Jim Lawson Shredder.

[@TiVo67]

Based on the images shown at SDCC Raph is the one with more of the lines/markings on front.

[@mattybats9527]

I'm pretty sure you have Mikey and Raph confused, Mikey was more apt to smile in the Mirage books, and the Raph figure has way more shell scarring. I wonder if the cowl would fit easier on the actual Raph figure?

[@Choom89]

Raph has the most scratches on his shell and equipment.

[@JustAlanDoingAlanThings]

Are these Target exclusives or something? Where can you get them? What is MSRP?

[@mattmcglasson7104]

Also, the turtle design is Jim Lawson, but the box art was done by Kevin Eastman

[@truerc]

It's not Jim Lawson at all. That's misinformation that spread like wildfire.

[@blammers]

THESE are the Turtles I have been waiting for since NECA started making them.

[@saulcortez944]

Are the scratches sculpted on the body or is it painted?

[@gumbo2165]

I love these, but I do have a question. Why are these near impossible to find anywhere I just don’t understand

[@GrnArrow092]

I got a set of these figures the other day at Target. I found just one on the shelf and I knew I wanted to have this set. I've been collecting the NECA TMNT releases and I thought it would be nice to have a set of the turtles that represented their appearance in the original Mirage comics. I thought of displaying these figures with the Mirage Splinter that recently got released. I wish I hadn't missed out on the Ultimate Foot Ninja figures I found alongside this set.

[@MrDarkblade1980]

I have my shredder in the house today😁 from alliaexpress. Thanks to you😉👍🏿. The box is oke 😁

[@ricardorincon434]

My issue with them ( at least from what ive seen in videos) is that the paint looks neon green. The prototypes had an incredible dark green that made seem more adult. Can you comment on that if it is the lights ?

[@NickDoobs]

They do look a little too bright.

[@Tindiil]

Raph is on the left. The beat up chest is the give away.

[@TMNT_1987_]

Can’t wait to get mine!

[@Talisac80]

Tails! That's awesome, I haven't opened mine yet to see that.

[@TheTurtleNexus]

They look great. I am not sure if I will ever get my hands on them, as the only possible option right now is ebay. Which is weird, why would NECA sell half of what they offer on retailers and the rest in US only stores?

[@hq9344]

Madhatter did it again! Can’t stop won’t stop

[@xavierdavila4363]

I believe the backdrop is taken from issue #21 of the original Mirage Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle run where the turtles defeat Shredder and burn his body on a floating funeral pyre. Awesome review!👍 I’m hoping to find this set myself.

I had to call in some lending favors but I was able to grab these and april at target. my only real gripe is the same gripe I have with most figures, if the figure uses melee weapons then they need to have the vertical wrist hinge.
