I caved and got the set. Surprisingly, I think Mike looks the worst. The paint on his bandana just doesn't work for me, and there's a certain "deadness" to his eyes that the others don't have. I think Leo turned out great--it caught me off-guard, honestly, because I really didn't like his face in the prototype pictures.
I do wish that the faces of the TMNT showed more emotion (baring teeth, scrunched eyebrows, etc), but in general these do look very nice in person. The NECA figures look great, especially at their price, but these statues are in an entirely different arena. It's not a simple 1:1 comparison as many are making it out to be.
Are these the best or most amazing statues in my collection? No, not close. But they're well done and are strong representation of the Henson designs.
