Those are cool model kits Phelous - well, you know. Aside from the stickers.

The hands remind me of a bootleg figure I have - which I think is Korean also;

[QUOTE=Phelous;1221340]TMNT Model Kit from Korea with awesome yellow turtle and horrible sticker decals. Also the way the hands and weapons are made they can only actually hold the sais and bo staffs.

I saw this over at another forum but, i just had to share...just..look:


These were on there aswell:

Raph on the right is stamped 1989. Im guessing they used a toy casting. Sadly the belt was not molded on. The seller told me they dont carry donnie or i would have the all 4 =(

edit: the raph on the left is a pillow and the Raph on the right is a piggy bank.

That first image.....is that supposed to be a cross between Splinter and Mighty Mouse???????

[Nickokapo]

Were they going for a 'robin hood' type of look?



What went wrong?

Here are some soft-vinyl/chewy dog toy looking type of figure set based on the nickelodeon toon:

The differences are pretty negligible actually. But they are there, and numerous enough to give away that they aren't the real deal.

Heh, bootleg Raph's right foot is a left foot.

Dude the splinter and he man look a like cracked me up. These would be great to find mint.

So here's my latest imports from China:





Didn't realize until a couple of weeks ago that the movie figures were being bootlegged. I should be receiving mine very soon. Will post pics of the actual figures when I get them. 6 figures for less than $20.00 shipped from China! Not bad!! I will most likely have to give them a new paint job, but at that price I'm not complaining.

I thought so too! I will definitely touch them up a bit (things like their shells) but overall I think they will be a decent set (especially for customizers). I'll post pics when they arrive. They were only $11 bucks and some change, but the shipping was just over $8. So around $20 shipped. I started to order a couple of sets for customizing but wanted to see a set first before buying more.

These are available for three pesos at the "tienda" in Mexico City. If I remember correctly, These figures were passed as "figuras de los estados unidos" there. Some figures I came across had strong ABS plastic but poor assembly.

[cinzel]

where did you get those figures?

aliexpress! There are lots of sellers posting them, most averaging around $20 or so. I just found a seller with good feedback and they also had some other stuff I was looking for. I've ordered from them in the past so I trust them (as much as anyone can trust resellers of bootleg products anyway...haha!).

If you need links, let me know. I'm hoping to have them in the next 1-2 weeks tops and will definitely post pics asap.

Thanks. The figures look nice but I think I will wait for your review
