No bad quality control on the figures except one of Mikey's pupils is slightly smaller than the other but it doesn't bother me. I am so in love with these, especially Shedder! I already have them displayed in a big fight scene with the Classics Bebop, Rocksteady, Party Wagon, FG Android body and my custom Pizza Monster. I am gonna start building a huge diorama now. I dont have a phone that can post pics so I'll upload some from my laptop later

I'd like to see that pizza monster if you don't mind.

I will post some pics later this evening. Its an older Xenomorph I started customizing a few years ago. When NECA announced theirs I decided to finish it

Anyone know of a site I can upload photos to and post them on here with? I tried photobucket and apparently I have to upgrade to share them now.

Flikr is just as bad. Imgur is what you want to use

[JonesyKitty]

Flickr works perfect WARNING! Spoilers because they are gigantic and won't downsize for some reason.

for tmntfannumerouno:
Pizza Monster was an old Xenomorph figure I found a few years back. I had started painting him but lost interest. After NECA announced theirs I decided to finish him off. His arm was broken and missing so I hot glued it to make it look like dripping cheese. I imagine Leo probably cut it off. I still gotta do some detailing on him though.

Thank you I'm gonna be starting a full diorama. Depending on if I decide to do it in this cabinet (which has 4 shelves) it will be:
Top Shelf - City level (Channel 6 Building, going to customize the 2007 van to be the News Van, background with Ninja Pizza and Ninja Dry Cleaners buildings)
2nd Shelf - Sewers/lair
3rd Shelf - Underground with the Technodrome painted in distance
Bottom - Technodrome portal room.

Nice setup man.

Is the SDCC NECA Xenomorph an actual thing in the movies or strictly a reference to Attack of the Killer Pizzas?

This on in particular is an actual reference, with a back story that does a lot of references to the TMNT, although there really is a yellow variant of a Xenomorph on the Alien comics so an Alien fan can actually have this as a figure based on that one.

My Shredder has a stuck bicep swivel... any suggestions on unsticking it?. I def dont wanna snap it and have to glue it in place. I heard freeze method works well

Never heard of the freeze method but you could microwave a bowl of water for three minutes and then stick him in there or use a hair dryer. Either way work the bicep swivel afterwards to loosen it up.

Hairdryer, then freeze for 30 min. My Shredder had the problem, and I fixed it this way.
