NECA Reveals Details About Baby Turtles From 90’s TMNT Movies

Earlier this year, NECA unveiled their plans for a series of figures based on the baby turtles from the 90’s TMNT movies. At the time, they had yet to reveal any additional information about these collectibles, but the early images looked very promising. Now that they’ve had a few months to work on the product, additional details about pricing, release date and accessories have finally emerged.

Rather than splitting the baby turtles up and selling them individually, NECA has decided to sell all four in one set. This set of TMNT figures will include three accessories: a bag of chips, a pizza box (with four slices), and a turtle hand twirling nunchucks. The pizza box will apparently be big enough for at least one turtle to stand inside, so chances are that the chip bag will also be appropriately sized.

Now we come to the issue of price. Although NECA’s products are usually at least a little expensive, fans will probably be pretty happy to hear that they can pre-order this set of baby turtles right now for only $49.99. As if that news weren’t good enough, NECA has also revealed that these collectibles will be shipping in March of 2018. In just three short months, you’ll have the opportunity to get your hands on these awesome TMNT figures.

This announcement comes just a few months after NECA revealed their plan to release two pieces of memorabilia based on the 90’s TMNT movies – including a TCRI Mutagen Canister. This collectible is still available for pre-order and it would definitely make for a nice companion piece with the baby turtle figures. I don’t know about you, but I’m pretty impressed with NECA’s plans for 2018!

NECA Announces 90’s TMNT Movie Prop Replicas

After the success of their 90’s TMNT movie figures, it probably shouldn’t come as a surprise that NECA has decided to continue working with this property. Having said that, it might surprise some shellheads that they’ve decided to start making prop replicas from the film. This won’t be the first time the company has made a prop replica, but I’m sure the fans will appreciate these collectibles nonetheless.

The first two prop replicas will come in the form of a Casey Jones Mask and a TCRI Mutagen Canister. Although one of these items is perfect for display, the other can actually be worn. As if that weren’t cool enough, both of these collectibles will be available for a very reasonable price. The Casey Jones Mask is already available for pre-order at the price of $29.99 while the Mutagen Canister will be sold for $45.99. Both items are scheduled to ship in January of 2018.

If you’re like me, right about now you’re wishing that the mask was available before Halloween. There have been many imitators, but few companies have managed to accurately recreate the hockey mask used by Casey Jones. This incredible 90’s TMNT movie prop replica is the closest approximation of the actual mask that I have ever seen. Similar masks currently on the market are sold for between $10-$50 on average, so $29.99 for a film accurate mask is an incredible deal.

The TCRI Mutagen Canister is also very nice, and it actually glows green when you press a button. This added feature is likely one of the main reasons that the prop replica is going for a slightly higher price. The canister is 13″ long, so it’ll probably look very nice and stand out among your collection. We don’t yet know if NECA has any plans for future 90’s TMNT movie prop replicas, but something tells me they’ll definitely consider it if these items sell well.

What do you think? Will you be picking up either of these 90’s TMNT movie prop replicas? Are they priced well, or is NECA asking for too much? Share your thoughts and plans either in the comments below or on Facebook/Twitter.

NECA Plans Shredder and Foot Clan Figures Based on 90’s TMNT Movies

written by Justin W

This probably won’t come as much of a surprise, but it’s looking like NECA has decided to continue working with the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1990) property. Although they recently finished up their line of all four turtles from the film, some fans have been asking “where are the villains?” Thankfully, that question already appears to have been answered, as images recently leaked indicate that the popular toy company has plans to develop both Shredder and his Foot Clan in 2018.

Unfortunately, NECA has yet to release pictures of these figures. However, the signage used in a photo provided by a fellow shellhead suggests that these collectibles will in fact be based on the 1990 movie and they will be coming next year. I think it’s safe to say that this property has proven very valuable for the company. After all, they probably wouldn’t bother developing a set of action figures like this unless they had good reason to expect that they would sell.

Donatello, Raphael, Leonardo and Michelangelo are now all available to purchase for about $100 each. This may be a bit pricey for some, but considering the level of detail on these figures and the cost of similar items on the market, $100 is actually a very good deal. It looks like NECA will be using the same general scale for their Shredder and Foot Clan collectibles, so we can probably expect them to sell for a comparable price.

Sadly, we won’t be able to tell you anything else until NECA decides to reveal more details about these figures. Chances are that we can expect them to make an official announcement and provide teaser images at some point in the next 6 months, but I wouldn’t hold out hope for any additional information during 2017. For now, we’ll all just have to rest comfortably knowing that they are indeed working on a product that several fans have been asking to see.

What do you think about this news? Are you happy to see NECA continue their work with the 1990 TMNT movie franchise? Are you excited to hear that they have plans for Shredder and Foot Clan figures? Share your thoughts either in the comments below or on Facebook/Twitter.

NECA Reveals All Four Turtles Based on 90’s TMNT Movie

It’s been a while since we heard anything about NECA’s latest Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles figures. For those who are unaware, NECA announced plans last year for a 1/4 scale Donatello based on the original 90’s TMNT movie. At the time, we were fairly sure that they would also be producing Leonardo, Raphael and Michelangelo, but they had not yet revealed their models. Thankfully, we now have confirmation that all four turtles will be a part of this collection. As you can see from the picture above, all four turtles have made their debut and they’re all looking very nice.

As we previously discussed, the Donatello figure is currently up for pre-order at a price of $96.99. If the other characters follow suit, chances are that they will be sold at a similar price point. Let’s just say that it would be very surprising to see these figures being sold for more than $100 each at release. Considering the size and detail of each figure, this is absolutely a fair price. Heck, these 90’s TMNT movie collectibles are large enough that you should probably make sure that you have room for them! Each figure is 16 ½ inches in height and comes with 30 points of articulation.

Unfortunately, we don’t have any information yet on when these figures will officially be released. The Donatello figure is due for release this month, but it’s still only available for pre-order. That being said, it’s nice to see all four turtles on display here, because it serves as confirmation that NECA has indeed been working on all of our favorite heroes in a half shell. Fans of the 90’s TMNT Movie will want to get their hands on these Ninja Turtles figures as soon as they are available in order to avoid paying collector’s prices if and when they go out of print.
