TMNT New Neca 4 Pack Review! SPECTACULAR!

Here is a full review and unboxing of the new Jim Lawson inspired, TMNJ 4 pack from Neca. I hope you enjoy
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, sometimes abbreviated to TMNT, is an American media franchise created by the comic book artists Kevin Eastman and Peter Laird. It follows Leonardo, Michelangelo, Donatello and Raphael, four anthropomorphic turtle brothers trained in ninjutsu who fight evil in New York City. Supporting characters include the turtles' sensei, a rat called Splinter, their human friends April O'Neil and Casey Jones, and enemies such as Baxter Stockman, Krang, and their archenemy, the Shredder.
The franchise began as a comic book, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, which Eastman and Laird conceived as a parody of elements popular in superhero comics at the time. The first issue was published in 1984 by Eastman and Laird's company Mirage Studios and was a surprise success. In 1987, Eastman and Laird licensed the characters to Playmates Toys, which developed a line of Turtles action figures. About US$1.1 billion of Turtles toys were sold between 1988 and 1992, making them the third-bestselling toy figures ever at the time.
The action figures were promoted with an animated series, which premiered in 1987 and ran for almost a decade. Three live-action films were released; the first, released in 1990, became the highest-grossing independent film up to that point. Numerous video games have also been released, including several developed by Konami. In some European regions, the franchise was titled Teenage Mutant Hero Turtles, due to the violent connotations of the word "ninja".
Eastman sold his share of the Turtles franchise to Laird in 2000. In 2009, Laird sold it to Viacom, now Paramount Global. Viacom commissioned a new comic series, two new live-action films, and new animated series.
In most versions, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles are created when four baby turtles are exposed to radioactive ooze, transforming them into humanoids. They fight evil in New York City where they reside in the sewers.
Leonardo, the leader, is the most disciplined and skilled turtle; an expert swordsman, he wields two katana and wears a blue bandana. Raphael, the strongest and most hot-headed turtle, wears a red bandana and uses a pair of sai. Donatello uses his intellect to invent gadgets and vehicles; he wears a purple mask and uses a bo staff. Michelangelo is the least disciplined and most fun-loving turtle, and is usually portrayed as the fastest and most agile He wears an orange bandana and uses nunchucks.
Splinter is a mutant rat who is the wise adoptive father of the Turtles and teaches them ninjitsu. In some iterations, he was once the pet rat of ninja master Hamato Yoshi; in others, he is a mutated Yoshi. The Turtles are assisted by April O'Neil, who is variously depicted as a news reporter, lab assistant or genius computer programmer. In most versions, she is pursued romantically by Casey Jones a hockey mask-wearing vigilante who usually becomes an ally of the Turtles.
The Turtles' nemesis is the Shredder, who leads the criminal ninja clan known as the Foot. His real identity is usually the ninja Oroku Saki. In most versions, the Shredder's second in command is Karai, a skilled martial artist; in some iterations she is the Shredder's daughter. The Shredder allies with Baxter Stockman, a mad scientist, and Krang, an alien warlord. Krang was introduced in the original animated series, and was inspired by the Utrom race from the comics. Also created for the series were the Shredder's buffoonish henchmen, Bebop and Rocksteady, a mutant rhinoceros and warthog

I actually like the different colours. It gives them more of a personality, in my opinion. And I think the choice of colour for each turtle with their personalities are perfect!

[@sevenproxies4255]

Donatello was my favorite as a kid. Because in the cartoon he built the Turtle'a wacky contraptions. And in the NES game his Bo gave him the greatest reach.

[@ShagShaggio]

Oh these are really cool. Love how they look! Personally I like the different colors, it just gives them more unique visual personality. If the original designs would have given them a bit more distinguishing physical characteristics then I would be all for the red. Awesome video! Looking forward to more! Cheers! 💚

[@monalisadavinci7076]

When I was in Spain during the 500th anniversary of the Columbus voyage, TMNT posters were everywhere advertising the movie. So, this summer will see my second one on the big screen.

[@billofthepeople5978]

I was a kid from a lower class neighborhood. I didn't have money for any comic books so my introduction to TMNT was the cartoons that I really enjoyed. That makes me more partial to muti color version but I still think I get a set of these for myself

[@thelbs6500]

Ahhh some TMNT nostalgia! I remember a holiday resort we used to go to had the arcade game and year after year I would enjoy watching the repeated sequences. Would like to hear you talk more about the video games in your collection, please! I only learned a few years back that the comic books existed before the cartoon, but the latter is what introduced me to them, so the different colours are what I'm used to.

[@dominic.h.3363]

Loved the TMNT cartoon as a child. Heard it from you first that it was a comic adaptation! :D

[@richardharrow2513]

Definitely check it out! You’re in for a surprise 😉

[@joels5150]

Makes me miss some of my older Turtle merchandise. Like the D&D-style RPG book and the original poster of the image they used for the first TMNT NES game. I need to dig through my comic collection, I should still have the one where Raphael gets his mutagen drained my a leech, (which grows into a murderous humanoid).

[@Zagranth]

You got a new suscriber here. As a fellow TMNT fan and in fact a fan of 80s/90S in general. Movies and video games of that era are just so good and nostalgic. So definitely I will follow your channel with great intertest

[@VincentSeeger-oc7gi]

I prefer the multi-colour head bands partly to nostalgia for the cartoon and in old martial arts movies the good warriors were distinct from one another and rank and file hench men were uniform.

[@st0rmrider]

With 50 bucks you are getting a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle. We haven't had a deal like that since Jean Claude Van Damme!

[@obi1shinobi140]

Those ARE THEE ninja turtles!!!! Awesome video!!!!

[@juanbarbosa1405]

I was first introduced to the four color turtles, so I prefer those over the comic ones.

[@nostalgicmusicbox]

This was randomly recommended to me. I was happily surprised who the host is! I was not expecting to see an angel.

[@nostalgicmusicbox]

I still need to read the Last Ronin.

[@KakashHatak3]

I think I prefer the multicolor just for my nostalgia, but wouldn't be upset with all red. It'd be more practical in combat anyways. They enemies would have more trouble deciding which turtle uses which weapon and fighting style. Especially when fighting intense battles.

[@boaz08]

I think I prefer the different colours. Because it just makes it easier to tell them apart in action scenes, but also because it gives them more personality.

[@juanbarbosa1405]

Im new to your channel, metatron, so don't know how nerdy/geeky you are, but happy to see you are one of us :)

[@oberstul1941]

Quality content, maestro! Cheers!

[@timewellspent8137]

Woo!! I love this style of video!! I grew up watching these, so I'll always appreciate this. Sometimes it's nice to do something more easygoing, so in sure you enjoy it too :)

[@TheKotor2309]

I’m surprised they included the tails. Well worth the price, then.

[@agingerbeard]

Awesome! I grew up on 4 colours, but nowadays I prefer the all-red. These figures look so fun to pose!

[@plushie1019]

Awesome review! I'd love to see more!

[@veritanuda]

Loving Shedders Revenge on the Deck. Really takes me back to playing in the arcade.

You're obviously a man of culture, my friend. Huge thumbs up and looking forward to the new videos on this new channel!

[@faustolasso9859]

Great idea!! Your a history professor next time tell a little history of the toys!! I would be interesting

[@Leprutz]

i like the colors too. I found it weird, that Laird and Stevenson didn't really agree with it.

[@zoddlander]

Cool to see this! When I was a teen, I was a Donatello fan! Mostly cause I could spinn a wooden stick like he did! When I got older I started to loved Rafael more! the edgy character flaws felt like they appealed to me!

[@theknightofart8169]

Si inizia già bene. Amerò questo canale e i suoi contenuti. Grande Raf!

[@TheProtectorate-yq7vi]

Oh yeah!

[@davesmith7432]

I grew up with the TMNT. I played all those games and between myself and my brothers, we had all the toys. They don’t make them like that anymore. They were detailed, stout, and had cool accessories. Now everything is cheap crap from China. Good video Met

[@DG53]

Mamma mia che spettacolo. Faccio finta di comprarli per mia figlia, ma so pe me :D. Devo prenderli, per forza. Grazie della review!

[@Vizeroy9]

Currently, about 15€ buys you a 90s cartoon style turtle with accessories - or the newer anime style ones.

[@AnubisTheMaster]

Fantastico! I love them turtles, Infact I plan to make some animations with my animator collaborators soon!

[@ReyPikoro]

Love it! More old school TMNT, please.

[@EstNix]

I definitely like the all red over the varied colors, it seems more serious and less for kids if that makes sense. Also wanted to say I know what you mean about Raphael, he experiences the same problem that I feel like the wolverine from marvel experiences. They are violent characters but in the show they never once use that weapons/claws because that's too violent for kids I guess. Though thinking about it now those also happens with leonardo because he also has bladed weapons

[@LadyGrelka]

I never read the comics, I was introduced to the Turtle's back in the late 1980s (I was around 6 years old) when the cartoon came out, and then the 1990 movie, so for the longest time I had no idea the 1980s cartoon was not the original and when I did find out about the comics I thought they came out after the cartoon. But I prefer the different color eye masks. Splinter was always my favorite followed by Donnie. I won't lie, I don't like the newer Turtle's stuff, give me the 1980s-1990s cartoon and the 1990 and 1991 movies (although I did not like the 1991 move as much as the 1990 move), but keep the rest of the it far away, but to each their own.

[@maverick7291]

They did a great job with this set. Looks like they have jumped out of the original comics.

[@zoddlander]

Rafael is always the grumpy one! But, yes nice art work, making them look like they are comic book characters!

[@Kargoneth]

Neat. Nostalgic.

[@mytzyxptlyx]

I prefer them with the different colours
