I wonder how much they will run and how hard they will be to get... this is a freaking blast from the past.

sdp 05-23-2016 12:36 PM

This is pretty big news to be in that convoluted NECA threa only regulars of this section visit.


Will these come out only as sdcc exclusives or will they get separate releases?

i need that set

sdp 05-23-2016 01:29 PM

Man, are we living in turtle heaven or what?

We've been getting so much awesome merchandise the past couple of years, specifically after Viacom bought the license. Was Mirage just really bad at getting deals/chosen poorly or the turtles being mostly early 90s means it is just hitting the nostalgia sweetspot now. like Transformers did ten years ago?

Pretty sure we are in the nostalgia sweet spot, plus a resurgence of interest with the new Nick show, Bay movies, 30th anniversary etc.

I have no chance of owning this do I :'(

Lil Karai 05-23-2016 01:44 PM

Details on purchasing and preordering will be released later this week.

For people at SDCC or... ? Says SDCC exclusive but I don't believe they will be. At least entirely.

Lil Karai 05-23-2016 01:50 PM

"Only way we are able to make TMNT in this scale is for cons only and sold in sets. License restrictions no retail"--Randy via Twitter

$100 per set according to Randy as well.

TheBlueTurtle1 05-23-2016 02:41 PM

Do you guys have a guess at price range? I am 100% locked (if gettable in the UK somehow) on the 4 turtles and if they are priced fair Ill get the Shredder pack.

I know they are saying no retail, but will places like bigbadtoystore get them in?

Either that or I am going to have to buy after sale prices :(

Autbot_Benz 05-23-2016 02:42 PM

NECA says "only way we are able to make TMNT in this scale is for cons only & sold only in sets. License restrictions no retail"

**** Playmates

Lil Karai 05-23-2016 02:46 PM

They are $100 per set. And no retail means no online sellers like BBTS either. Licensing is what it is. Let's just be glad NECA spend 8 years trying to get these made.

That's a very fair price. :)

TheBlueTurtle1 05-23-2016 02:55 PM

The base price of $100 is fine, I guess it will come down to availability, if the only means is to get these on ebay, with import and shipping costs added, Ill have to pass:(:(:x:x:x

I guess Ill have to wait and see what happens.:-?

sdp 05-23-2016 03:10 PM

It means they can't sell to retail but a store like BBTS can still go to the con and buy them and later sell it on their website. Sadly SDCC exclusive stuff on BBTS sells out pretty quickly.


Anyone here only interested in a single figure? If 4 people are interested it'd be $25 a turtle. i only want Donatello.

I see where your coming from, but for me it's all or nothing:(

But I guess If I had to go for one, it would be Leo all the way, since he was the Turtle I used the most on the game:lol:

TheBlueTurtle1 05-23-2016 03:42 PM

Wow, I can see how this is going to go. I guess I won 't be getting these. Good job the SHF figs are coming.

i wouldnt worry those people are scalpers. dont pander to their crap just wait till they are around you will find them cheaper or regular price

Excellent looking sets.
Best Shredder ever to be released, by the looks of the pics.

Redrumh2o 05-23-2016 04:40 PM

I wish the box didn't have that flap...... It's cool and all but you need a lot of shelf space to display it opened.....my complaints for the day

DVD 05-23-2016 04:56 PM

I'm liking that drop down lid a lot. These sets are going to dispkay very well indeed.

I Crave Pizza No More 05-23-2016 05:31 PM

Sigh. As a SDCC exclusive, there's a good chance that if retail is $100, we'll have to pay $200. Most exclusives aren't that hard to come by after the show, but I have a feeling this one is going to be different, especially if the edition size is low.

Redrumh2o 05-23-2016 06:17 PM

Those eBay auctions could very well be a decent price.

brockotter 05-23-2016 06:21 PM

These are sooooooo awesome!

Least you're providing your stuff to everyone.

oldmanwinters 05-23-2016 08:28 PM

What a great surprise! Too bad I'll never own these, but still! Maybe they'll be some decent Chinese bootlegs made a few years down the road.

This is pretty big news!

turtlefan27 05-23-2016 09:03 PM

UGHHHH!!!! I want both sets,too bad there only being sold at the con.

DVD 05-23-2016 09:13 PM

http://www.ebay.com/itm/SDCC-2016-NE...MAAOSwepZXQ3TU

$100 less than the first presale shown above. These will be available pre - $100 after the event.
Im sure we've all been through our first SDCC exclusive purchase. Mine was a B/W set of First Doctor / DALEK. Paid a ton of cash, and happy to do it. Its still available, years later at about 1/4 what I paid. Worth sitting on a fence for a bit. Once sold to the flippers, there will be eBay competition. Advice - Don't preorder.

What is big news? I refuse to click through on pages that require me to disable ad block.

Also- As someone who grew up in arcades I can say I dont think I like these...if it wasnt for the pixel block shading they would be sweet. Just give us the figs not the silly shading.

sdp 05-23-2016 10:37 PM

Do all NECA figures get bootlegs?

The vg pixel style doesn't worry as well with 16bit as it does with 8 bit but it's fine and different. Normal paint jobs are not needed for me since we have the superior SHFiguarts coming out but I would like the best shredder figure to date not to be pixelated ....

tw2thr3 05-23-2016 11:05 PM

I just pre-ordered both sets for a good price shipped. I'm pretty pumped hopefully the guy comes through. I don't mind the pixels as much, I'm sure someone will paint a set. I really caved just for Shredder and the turtles look awesome. Call it impulse, my excuse is I didn't buy the 1/4 Neca movie line. Who knows maybe we get mirage shredder, one can wish. Between these and the Figuarts its been an expensive day to say the least

The shading is personally the charm of them for me. I played the ever loving crap out of this game back in the day and actually almost bought an arcade cabinet of it a couple of years ago and got sick with some gallbladder problems that put me out of work for a while and kept me from being able to get the machine. It is still one of my dreams to own it. I definitely could see how these wouldn't be for everybody though.

I am determined to have a 4 player TMNT cabinet at some point as well. That and the 6 player X-men were huge in arcades.
