Yeah, I was pretty pumped to see that one, too. Here's hoping someone does a run of TGRI variants! I can't wait to see the other accessories. Has anything been announced?

Dominos pizza box for Mikey... straw farm hat for Donnie... fedora for Raph... ooze canister for Leo?

I'm usually not a big action figure/statue guy, but these have me really jazzed. I'm REALLLLLLLLLY hoping for Shredder and a Foot Soldier.

I wonder if the same sculpts will be used for the rumored 1/6 scale line. Any clues why they wouldn't just sculpt in 1/4 scale and work their way down?

Good question and I have no idea . Regarding accessories I was told only the ooze canister and pizza slice.

Wow, totally missed the canister decals. That is great.

Looking forward to seeing all four put together at SDCC. I'm really torn at the moment, the only large scale collectible I own is the Hot Toy's Bespin Luke set. I just like 5-7' scale better. NECA Horror stuff, Walking Dead, Mattel's WWE figures. I just worry that waiting for these to be released in the smaller scale is a lost cause. Sucks considering I have perfect renditions of the Mirage Turtles from NECA, 2K12 from Revlotech, and soon '87 toon from SH Figurarts in the 5-7 range.

I think I'm going to have to break down and get these at 1/4th. It's most likely going to be the only way.

Time to start working on building a 1/4 scale circa-1990 Dominos Pizza box. Maybe a 3D printed pork rinds bag.

NECA confirmed today via Twitter that the turtles will have different shells from one another. Cool.

Thank you.

And different shells? Head sculpts that look that good, articulation below the pads, attention to detail, the sculptor who created that amazing Raph piece...

Just wow. What an astounding difference when people actually care.

This is ninja turtling correctly.

Trevor Sculpted the bodies, belts, and Donatello head and another artist named Jason sculpted the other 3 turtles. Trevor called this guy the very best!

So I decided to order a single case of each turtle. They are 2 per case. Listed MSRP is 99.99 for each turtle.

Keep in mind I was only able to put in orders for Donny, but they are sold out for retailers. Grab these as soon as you can if you are interested. They will go after market quickly.
