The NECA Wishlist
 

Alright, I'm sure pretty much everyone here has been following Murph's blog, and I know just about everyone has a wishlist of figures they'd like to see made , so I figured let's just make one big post of it all right here. Surely someone from NECA is likely to see what we've posted and I'm positive someone at Mirage will see this, so here's our chance for some creative fan input!

Personally, I'd love to see a City At War style Rat King. I think Jim's iteration of the character there is perfect.

Here's the rest of my list (in no particular order):

1. Baxter with Mousers
2. Shredder's Elite
3. Karai
3. Casey Jones with Hockey Mask and sports gear/weapons.
4. Casey Jones without Hockey Mask and maybe some other accessories (a motorbike maybe?)
5. The Shredder
6. Oroku Saki (the worm version)
7. Leatherhead
8. Utroms with Human disguises
9. Utroms without Human disguises (just the exoskeleton)
10. The Justice Squad (both in casual gear and costumes)
11. Complete Carnage
12. Radical
13. Savanti Romero
14. Renet
15. Nobody
16. The Thief God
17. The Baxter Robot
18. Zog
19. The Mutant Shredders

I should probably stop, otherwise I'll be here a while :lol:

I'd love (but I doubt they'd ever get made) show accurate versions of the old toon characters.
The Boys and Splinter of course (maybe even Hamato Yoshi.)
April, Burne, Vernon, Irma
Shredder, Krang, Bebop and Rocksteady, Tragg, Baxter (human and fly)
But again...yeah...right.

My wishlist is heavy with Turtle variants with the assumption that all of the obvious secondary characters that I'd be interested in are already on "the list."

Basic Turtles (from Leo Solo + 10-11)
Mike in Winter Gear w/ Klunk (from Mike Solo)
Pre-TMNTs (from #9)
Leo in Hunting Gear (from #11)
The Unmentionables (from #14)
Mike in Travel Gear (from #17)
#50 Turtles

And I really can't beg for these enough: Turtles in the styles of the different Mirage artists! Dooney, Farley, Lawson, Berger, Brown, Lavigne, Talbot .. Zulli, Bode, and Allan, too. Anyone else - It's all good!

And to put some secondary characters on the record, just in case:
Elite Foot Soldier
Gizmo & Fluffy ... maybe?!
Chet w/ Turtle Bowl (Ok, so I don't *need* this one, but it would be pretty neat!)

That's cute overload right there!

Personally I just want them to hit the big staples

1 ) The Four Turtles
2 ) Generic Foot Soldier
3 ) Shredder w/armor
4 ) Splinter
5 ) April
6 ) Baxter
7 ) Casey with removable accessories
8 ) Savanti Romero
9 ) Renet
10 ) Karai
11 ) Foot Elite
12 ) The #&$%ing Rat King!

OH a Miyamoto Usagi would be awesome! But I don't know if they'd be able to do that...Someone tell NECA to talk to Stan's people!

Yeah, that's pretty much the list of characters I expect them to cover.

Usagi would also be good, although the Dark Horse figure is pretty nice.

I like what everyone else in this topic wants.

My most wanted:

1. 4 TMNT
2. Shredder
3. Splinter
4. Baxter Stockman with Mousers
5. April O'Neil
6. Leatherhead
7. Usagi Yojimbo (if you are able to)
8. Foot soldier
9. Foot elite
10. Oroku Saki not in armor
11. Casey Jones
12. Karai

From the original 80s toon:

1. Krang
2. Shredder
3. Rocksteady
4. Bebop
5. 4 TMNT
6. April O'Neil
7. Foot soldier

All of those figures would be awesome!:)

I know this is off topic, but while I am at this topic I might as well list what I would like to see for Gears of War series 1 (because you are going to make figures):

1. Marcus Fenix
2. Baird
3. Raam
4. Locust Sniper
5. Caramine

The Fugitoid perhaps?

I'd also like to see a movie line. The four turtles, Splinter, Shredder, Casey, April, foot soldier, and maybe Tatsu. But before that I want to see a good set of comic figures. So hopefully the line will be successful enough to warrant such a set.

The 4 Turtles as they appeared in the first issue....

The turtles as drawn by Hedden /McWeinie

I'll just cut to the chace.... all the turtles drawn in the style of the different guest artists that drew for them.

Shredder

Baxter

Casey Jones

Renet

Savanti

Hildagaurd Rail (no chance in hell, but I'll give it a shot)

Plus a very small line of ones based on the cartoon series and Jim Henson company Movie suits.

Of course, since I got introduced too the Turtles in the original toon, all my wish lists are from there.

ACCURATE Versions of all the main characters, in a decent size. Maybe 7" statues.

A Channel 6 gang interlocking one like the four $125 turtle statues.
A Villain interlocking one with a Technodrome backdrop.
Dimension X backdrop with Creatures.
Bebop and Rocksteady in Battle action post with Blasters.
7" Mouser (static statued)
7" Technodrome(Static, maybe moveable wheels)

But the most important thing too me is accurate detail and scale.

I want a big-ass Triceraton! As big as the packaging will allow it to be.

Everything else I want has already been mentioned.

Altho a Mirage style Nobody and Savanti Romero would be nice...well I already have the current series figs of em....but of course that wouldn't stop me from buying the Mirage varients! :lol:

Klunk (ATM I have this small orange cat toy I baught at Michaels. Closest I have to a Klunk figure. And yes it's standing at the base of my movie Mike figure)
Shadow Jones
Gabrielle Jones
Robyn (and possably her son. Even tho he hasn't been seen since CAW)
The 4 Turtles
Renet
Savanti Juliet
The Justice Force
Raptarr
Radical
Karai ( I currently have the movie style and the 2K3 style. But a Mirage style would be cool too)
Zog
Splinter (I'd love to see a Mirage style variant of him. Course he'd be standing next to my 2K3 and Movie variants)
Casey Jones
April (vol 4 style with the shortened hair)
Chet (dude..that would be awesome to get a Chet! )
Hamato Yoshi (Just as long as he's not wearing a fricken hat like the 2K3 version...:ohwell: )
Teng Shien
Shrunken Don with the robot he made to fight in
The Regenta/Seri
Gameraph :D

And how about some Archie figs too? I know they're making a Jagwar but a Ninjara would be really nice....I mean come on.. Ninjara's gonna be in the Forever War book that mirage is so ever nicely doing...so she'll TECHNICALLY become a Mirage character....kinda...sorta...kinda...um....yea... :P

I'd also like an Ancient One figure please...and the Ninja Tribunal...and the human Acolytes....

For the last time: NO, she won't be.

I just thought of another character I'd like a fig of. Cha Ocho!

I second that!:D I would also love a big triceraton.

This topic is too similar to the "What would you do?" thead on page 2.

I'll just copy and paste my reply from that below:

Id make every character from the original cartoon,2k3 series and every movie(except part 3 ),they would be large highly detailed figures,about as big as the "Masterpiece" line of Transformers and they would have the articulation of the recent movie figs and then some.

I would also include all the characters from the "Lost Season"....especially Demon Shredder and the Dragon Turtles(they'd have too be even bigger).

Heck,Id even include 'Fast Forward' in all this,as boring as it was,IMO alot of the character designs were pretty cool.

Might as well throw in a talking feature where each character says at least 3 diffrent phrases too.

I mentioned that Id make them as big as the Masterpiece Transformers,but I doubt the NECA figs will be that big also I doubt they would include that talking feature I said Id add..... but everything else I said applies too this wishlist though.

NECA didn't buy a magic wand to make all of the figures Playmates has been unallowed to make and they're not replacing Playmates. Anything they produce still has to be approved by Peter, which means that all old toon stuff is out.

From Murphy's blog:
While I hope that the line is successful enough to eventually expand, it's kinda wasted effort to ask for characters from universes other than Mirage Vol. 1 right now.

OH! That's a good one! I'd be down for that!

I am excited about these, I always wanted playmates to do a Mirage style, I quit buying the playmates toys a whiles ago, had to get the movie ones tho :P I wish they were more realistic looking tho.

TMNT Vol 1:

4 turtles issue one style would be sweet.
Shredder issue one style.

The ealier Leo one shot book style art would be great that and issue 10 I think where where Eastman and Lairds newer style really came together imo.

Those would be the styles I'd like the sepia toned style of the first book from First Books would be nice to have turtles in color and not just black and white. I'd like to have both black and white as well as color versions.

Yeah, I think a lot of people still need to realize that. Everything still goes through Peter, so I wouldn't expect much outside the Mirage universe.

Well I can think of a million figures I'd like to see, but only one I can't live without. I want an early Mirage styled Casey Jones. The poor guy has never had a figure that makes him look half as mean as he should.

I'm praying to the toy gods that NECA will find it in their hearts to give it to me.

Since the title of this thread is "NECA Wishlist"-- I see nothing wrong with people suggesting whatever they want. True, it's not gonna happen, but what the heck?

I personally would LOVE to see SuperTurtles from the current series (and the 2K3 series)-- As well as "The Sliver"!


OOOO! That would be AWESOME!

Making a wishlist full of things that you hope for knowing the chances are slim to none of them coming true is one thing, but that wasn't how this thread was setup. And I never got the impression that the people asking for old toon toys knew that it would never happen.

We were told specific information of what to expect from NECA. To create a wishlist with the intention of it being seen by the people in charge, yet completely ignoring the provided information, is, IMO, more than a waste of time, but also a bad representation of fandom.

We're already facing an extreme uphill climb as fans. If we can provide TPTB with good, realistic ideas now, perhaps there will be a chance of those hopeful, farfetched wishes actually coming true in the future.

At least that's how I see it. Of course, you're always free to do what you want.

My apologies. I had no idea it was that serious.

I don't think it's a bad representation of fandom for anyone to say what they really would like to see, when Murphy has said that Laird IS interested in what fans have to say regarding what they might like. Personally I have NO real memories/fondness for the original toon, NOR the Archie series (what I do remember of THEM is through reading recaps/synops-- I was not a huge fan myself). Murphy has the wishlist going at his blog. Despite what I've heard, I doubt that anyone posting here at the Drome have to worry that Laird is gonna hunt them down and take them out.

And so, I want to see a LOT of different Splinters, please-- except the Lawson version of the recent series, where he looks like a caricature of Fu Manchu.

And I still hold out a desperate hope for "The Sliver"!!!!!!

Great lists...

But I'd like to add in:

A two pack of, "Raph VS Lucindra." Training equipment accessories. http://www.ninjaturtles.com/comics/m...me01/44/44.htm

I think that this two pack would show an intimate (but not romantic) side of Raph. Being that he is always seen as the loner, it would be nice to see him have a forgotten side.

Dr. Dome with Domebots as a basic package, however a Domeoid vehicle with him, and possibly something to make it an exclusive; IE extra Domebots and some promo piece. Or the the Domeoid mech could be a build-a-figure?
Or perhaps come with a PVC Captain Deadbolt... ;)

Bloodsucker with a tiny turtle, and a red cloth bandana.

An exclusive "Kirby" figure. Perhaps proceeds could go to a charity of Kirby's family's choice.

DARPA Soldiers?

"Pete and Kevin" from TMNT Volume 2, Issue #13, with their signs.

Random street gang/punks. Easily could be 2-3 molds but varients in the clothing/skin/hair colors. Also reusable for gift sets, two packs, mailaways, etc.

Zulli Shredder with Zulli Splinter, comes with the raven as well. All Zulli turtles, the two pack, etc, could come with BAF Zulli Foot Soldier?

The Jackal. Molly. April. http://www.ninjaturtles.com/comics/m...me01/32/32.htm <ok, so I'm a fanboy for that request.>

Loki. Various mythological monsters/characters. http://www.ninjaturtles.com/comics/m...me01/43/43.htm

The Beast/the Night Stalker - http://www.ninjaturtles.com/comics/m...me01/37/37.htm

1,Nightwatcher
2,Raphael
3, Mikey with his kitten

I'd hope that they'd make a Raphael and at least a Mikey. Klunk would be the obvious accessory. Nightwatcher? I highly doubt it. Such a minor, minor piece of TMNT history.

Looks at above screename.

ohhhhhhhhhhhh..........keeeeeeeeeeeee...

Minor characters are a no? Interesting...

Personally, as far as the comics go, I want (Out of the less sure figures)

1. Cold weather Mikey with Klunk.
2. Shredder (V1 num. 10)
3. Donnie w/Kirbyworld Accessories.
4. SOuls in Winter Turtles
5. Casey (Circa issue 10)
6. Ultrom Multi-pack (3 Ultroms, 1 Ultrom in Exoskeleton.)
7. Rat King (CAW)

For starters, I never said minor characters. Nightwatcher, as cool as it was for the movie, was a single shot use. Granted, it was used in the video game as well, but overall, it's not as imperative that we get that considering it's from the movie, not the Mirage, time line, and that figure set is just a peg warmer. It's sitting at every store I've checked so far. So why make another Nightwatcher when it's not selling and is waste of space.

Slash is not a minor character. The Archie comics made him that way. He was reoccurring in the cartoon show as well.

Nightwatcher isn't Mirage canon and won't be. Just like Slash, Ninjara, etc.

That certainly belongs in a Playmates wishlist, not NECA. You know that was just 2k3 (I personally hated that episode and I'm glad they were never made, but I hope you can make some customs some day).

Um... Yeah.. About that.

http://www.ninjaturtles.com/comics/m...07/07cover.jpg

I'll be damned...

I never bought volume 4 avidly (Tales I do) but you'd think I'd know about this. Wow... is it a good issue?

To an extent, yes. They're just computer programs though, not actual characters.

Meh, still stupid.

I bought NECA's Gremlins line a few years back, and they were so perfect. that I have pretty high hopes for this line in terms of quality sculpts.

Can't wait.

I haven't bought toys so much in the past few years for several reasons, but this could certainly pull me back in with a vengeance... if my bank account is winking at me on the right day.

I just hope Mirage doesn't hold them back too much in terms of letting them do what they want to do, but I will remain optimistic, as there's enough pesimism here already.

it...it was a joke....

I actually like Slash. I just..was trying to make light of the issue......

Honestly, I'm a little surprised he never appeared in any later turtles formats (Besides Archie and the OT), given his obvious parody of an existing comics character (Bizarro) which is most of what turtles origionally did. hence why raphael was origionally a total PSYCHO. And naming a Ninja clan "THE FOOT"

Anywho....

I still support a Cold weather Mikey with Klunk, a Kirbyworld Donnie, and an ULTROM multipack.

TO the Death

ULTROM?

Anywho, Tristan, I like your list. Honestly though, I think you need to make an abridged version. Will NECA even look at a list that long? lol I do like the list though. Anything Vol 1 should be considered, and I guess Vol 2.

Could NECA get a license to do characters from Vol 3? Thoughts on that?

Who's to say their current license excludes Vol. 3? But it doesn't matter, since I think Peter's as likely to approve Vol. 3 figures as he is Next Mutation figures.

Volume III, TNM, Archie, and Old Toon are lost with Pete! :)
