I am looking for a decent deal on the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Classic Collection Action Figures on ebay. I am fine if they are bootleg but i see a lot that dont have movable fingers and toes. Does it matter? has anyone got any that dont move?

http://www.ebay.com/itm/171921742600

that is the link for a set i am considering. thoughts?

I have no experiences with the bootlegs, but I did have a legit set. The finger articulation was a huuuge pain in the butt, it served very little purpose & made it near impossible for the turtles to hold their weapons. My opinion is that they'd be better without that feature. Never paid the toes any mind, seems inconsequential.

i do know a member here purchased the bootleg ones and right out of the package Mikeys arm snapped off. i would stay away from them and find a decent priced authentic set

Probably a fair point, I imagine their market value will decrease as all these new figures come out.

I have the bootleg Necas, RovTech, and Classic Collection Cartoon figures; the Necas are by far the best looking. I'd say near perfect.

So do i go for the Neca Red or the colored Headbands? I kinda dig the colored ones. I know they were all red originally, but those are cool.

Mine are colored. Not sure about all red, but I'd bet they are about the same. I guess it's just whatever your preference is.

Revoltech bootlegs are very much bootlegs. Mine came with all accessories, but others have said stuff is missing. Also the swappable heads sometimes need work to clean out some extra plastic in the joints. All my arms and legs were sturdy. Minor paint blemishes here and there but still display worthy.

Just be aware of all these things.

Yeah, they are not as good as the NECA bootlegs, but they are very nice indeed.

I have ordered my Revoltech via Aliexpress as usual and everything went fine.

So another opinion needed. I am tempted to get the SOTO walmart exclusive figures but i am not sold on the face sculpts. would my money be better spent on the Revoltech bootlegs?

Yes. It's also a matter of luck, but I have never had any trouble with aliexpress bootlegs.

Never. But you have to wait 2+weeks for the items to arrive.
