PSA-Mondo Turtles down to $80 at BBTS

PSA-Mondo Turtles down to $80 at BBTS



I bought mine on the second hand market for 100, but they are on BBTS right now for 80-90 brand new.


WORTH IT if you were on the fence. I disagree with the 150, but 80? Grab em!

Only Leo is $80. Raph $83, Donny $90, Mikey $100. https://www.bigbadtoystore.com/Searc...ing&Brand=2431

If they had done more than just the turtles, I would be tempted. But most licensees just do the 4 TMNT for easy repaints then drop it.

As far as I know they are still being made. I do want to be reassured though so hopefully they will be shown again at San Diego Comic Con in a few days.

I honestly can't remember what I paid for all my Mondo turtles, but I definitely got them at discounted prices (roughly $80 - $100 each). While they certainly have their flaws, I absolutely love this set.

I seriously hope more are revealed at SDCC, but I won't be surprised if they get cut. Mondo seems to be getting better and better with their figures, so hopefully we will still see Casey, the Foot and Shredder. I'd totally snag them.

My wife collects MOTU and the He-Man and Skeletor are amazing. They definitely have QC figured out at this point IMO

Is it weird that I am super tempted to get these, solely to have Turtle figures holding laser-blasters? I want to re-live the Triceraton arc from Mirage studios.

Size aside, how do you all think these compare to the Neca Mirage figures?

Edit: Wow! Raphael comes with a mask-less head and a laser-blaster? That actually makes for a pretty unique Mirage-inspired figure. I'm sold.

The Quality is different for each turtle. Leo was released first and has the worst QC. If you can get past one of Leo's head not fitting right, and the little parts issues (sword sheaths etc) then get them. The other 3 turtles all were good. Donny was turtle #2 and ironed out about 99% of issues, then Mikey then Raph. Each one got slightly better with a large jump in quality after Leo.

I got Leo years ago but am so tempted to get Raph at that price. Leo is the only one I have currently. I'd love to have a shredder in this style....maybe one day we'll get some more continuation on this line.

I actually caved and bough Leo when he was $65, it's a manageable price for what's a non-cloth 1:6th scale figure in my opinion. So I'm a little excited now that he's shipped.

That's definitely awesome news! I was hoping that was the case because the MOTU figures have looked stunning.

You won't be disappointed! Yes, he was the most flawed of the four, but still a lot of fun to pose and display. Enjoy him once he arrives!
