I am a very happy customer! I got mine from BBTS very promptly and they looked perfect. The one slight issue I have is my Leonardo's eyes don't roll completely white (A slight sliver of blue from his eyes are visible in ninja mode), but its not noticeable unless you're up close and scrutinizing it.

I meant to post these when I got them, but here they are! I have a few other Revoltech figures so I made a...umm... Fight fic? Is fight fiction a thing? All I know is that this would make a hell of an 8-player Smash Brothers match.

Spoiler:










Sorry they're huge! I'll try to shrink them.

Try to roll them to the other side, all my turtles show a little bit of their eyes when I roll them to one side, but they stay completely white if I roll them to the other side.

Got Leo yesterday. So I now own Leo and Raph.

Everytime one of these guys turns up in the post I feel like a kid at Christmas again! They are great, and the packaging is super nice too.

Really can't wait to get Mikey, but my next purchase won't be until the new year now. Prob get Mikey and Don in one hit.

Those of you who have all 4, if you could only have 1, which would you choose, and why? Random question!

Well, Leo comes with the most accessories, and his weapons fit very nicely in his hands. I would have to say that if I could only have one, it would be Leo. Mikey is pretty close in accessory count, but it's just so hard for him to hold his weapons.

I just got in the mail all 4 of these Revoltech jewels. They truly are beautiful in every way. The accessories, articulation, paint, its all great.

My 6 year old daughter is used to the Playmates Nick figures that we have. When I busted these Revoltech figs out, even a 6 year could appreciate how awesome they looked. She was like, "Daddy these are so much nicer than our other ones, they look just like from the cartoon".


I got all 4 from BBTS. They cost about $240 bucks with shipping, basically $60 bucks a piece. To anyone else who has recently purchased these, does this seem to be the going price? Did I get a good deal, or did I pay to much? I don't really care either way, cause I love em, but I was just wondering, thanks in advance.

I got mine from Hobby Link Japan but they are discontinued now. You can find them on Amazon.co.uk but they cost around 70€ -80€ each figure, I paid 150€ for all four plus 50€ on taxes. Also they pop up on eBay every once in a while so you can try there.

BBTS was one of the more expensive places to order from but you didnt have to import them and most of the other places are sold out of them so if your happy with them then it was worth it

Leo or Donnie. I honestly think Donnie, proportion-wise, looks best because he's tall and doesn't suffer from that no-neck look that the others get a little. His alt face is also pretty funny.
And Leo has the pizza, swords, and a great alt face.

I had a feeling that I might have paid a little more than some. That being said though, it was really the easiest way for me to get all 4. Also, according to what you said and I have been seeing, it seems to be one of the few places left that have them in stock. Checking ebay, not that they are a good barometer, it seems most of them are usually going for around $60 to $70 a piece, so $ 60 bucks each with shipping and getting all 4 in one shot, I am happy.

My mom surprised me with $300 in cold, hard cash for Christmas. I knew exactly what I was going to spend that on. Just sucks I wasn't able to pay a cheaper price by having them imported from Japan. For the four turtles, it came out to just under $250. But I'm happy. Can't wait to have these damn things already!
