The picture comes from a NECA staffer.

My god Leo looks flawless! The paint job on the these test figures look better than the production Donatello IMO.

If you follow the NECA twitter page, they post a lot of work in progress shots, first looks, and teases. Monday's are "Monster Monday's", Tuesdays are "Turtle Tuesday's" or "Terminator Tuesday's", Wednesday's are "Prednesdays", and Friday's are "Face Hugger Friday's" to cover NECA's horror, monster, TMNT, Terminator, Predator, and Aliens licenses.

The twitter page is curated by Randy Falk who is the Director of Product Development (or something like that- not sure of his exact title). He's created a very fun and faithful community over there and it's great to get the first looks and news as it drops.

Raph is up for preorder now, scheduled release Q1, 2017. Leo will be up for preorder once Raph releases. Leo will be released Q2, 2017, and Mikey released Q3, 2017.

Anyone know if Donatello has been spotted at Toys R Us?

I see a product page on their website, but thats it. No online purchase or store pick up.

I received Donnie today from Calendars.com, I was surprised that it got here so fast! :D

Had to pay €34,85 for the import costs, could have been worse I guess.
Anyway, it's an awesome figure, would be great if Calendars.com got the others too! :)

OK, thanks!

I've never seen any 1/4 NECAs at TRU. I think the only big NECA figure I've ever seen there was Gypsy Danger.

Here's my review, sorry it took me so long to post I've been very busy.

Monte Williams 01-04-2017 11:24 PM

How many of you are planning to get all four Turtles from this series?

How many are planning to get only your favorite Turtle or two?

'Cause Don is the figure of the year, for me, and yet I am uncertain whether I want the expense and space consumption required to own all four, not least 'cause I seldom capture good photos of all four Turtles together anyway.

Still, I bet they'll make a beautiful set.

VaughnMichael 01-04-2017 11:39 PM

I'm going to get all 4 after getting Donatello for Christmas I can't pass them up!

Monte Williams 01-04-2017 11:44 PM

I'll probably cave and do so, too. :)

Curiously, despite my affection for the character, Raph is the figure I'm perhaps least interested in, and I am disproportionately excited about Michelangelo, about whom I normally don't much care.

No question I get all 4 of these. The price point vs quality is just insane. I wouldn't pass these up if you can help it. The prices floated up to 150+ online in the after market when I sold off my spares. The rest may do the same.

psychturtle 01-05-2017 07:42 AM

These are grail figures for me. I doubt we get any others that either look this good or have this price. So for me, I'm having to grab them all.
