Neca TMNT SDCC Video Game sets - Page 21

I don't think any actual knockoffs have turned up yet. These seem to all be factory fresh, just of questionable... distribution, let's say.

The shredder/foot one this seller has is $127 ... Price must have changed?

This guy is acting as an agent, so to speak. He is accessing multiple Taobao sites within his 'shop'.
So you'll buy from him, he'll buy from them and send it on. Neat way to access Taobao !!

Good info to know. So you'd be confident in receiving some high quality merchandise?

Yeah it must have. I think because I ordered it but haven't paid yet is why.

Up to a point . I noticed that when I Use Taobao, I pay up front, into my online Taobao account. The seller forwards the goods. Only after receiving the goods do I confirm with Taobao and the funds are released into the sellers account. It's a great safeguard against a number of problems. The best thing is that it's then in the sellers interest to get product to you as quickly as possible.

What about in this particular case? You seem to be quite knowledgable with these arcade figures and the Chinese sellers. Thanks!

*DVD* · 09-02-2016, 05:00 PM

There are only a handful of sellers with the Neca figures.
All were selling at a good price. Let's say, something got in the way of that and the standard price was moved up to 1200rmb. X-Rates will determine the final foreign price but you are looking at around $100 which will include postage.
All Taobao sets at 1200 are legitimate . If I discover that any are not, I can let you know.

It took a few minutes but I found the original Taobao sale in question.
It did have an original sale price of 1200 but it was reduced. Seller only has these as far as Turtles products go. I'd get them.

Thanks for your expertise. I think I'm going to go ahead and snag those bad boys.

Depends on what you are expecting
Because it's shipped from far away there is always a chance that the box might be damaged. However, I find the Chinese sellers are usually very careful at packing. My order was thickly wrapped in bubble wrap and some newspapers were used to add cushion to the box.
The figures are standard NECA quality. Mostly good paint jobs. Joints may have some QC issues. I'm just basing this on my experience with NECA figures. I kept mine MOC because of how cool the arcade game inspired packaging looks.

*DVD* · 09-03-2016, 09:05 PM

Firstly: yes- every time I get a package (that's almost every day) delivered, the product is very securely wrapped up. Nothing to worry about on that score.

Today, I wanted to bring all my Neca Turtles onto the one shelf, and I found a way, kinda!!

First, move some Space Turtles onto there own shelf:

Then, put all the Neca Turtles onto one side of the main lounge unit:

And balance that on the other side with the foot:

More internal balancing with sdcc stuff n playmates Collectors figures, and I think it all looks about right...... Until I bring home Leo and Don!!

*Powder* · 09-03-2016, 09:41 PM

Very cool display, my friend.

*DVD* · 09-03-2016, 10:22 PM

Cheers.
I am planning to switch out the 2012 and 2014 sdcc figures with the new Leo and Don figures.
Also, I've been meaning to switch out the two framed prints, as I had a couple if the ones you sent me framed up. Thing is, they look kind of cool in my office

cloud · 09-04-2016, 04:41 PM

I regret not picking up the NECA black and white Turtles. Thought I would find a better deal for them eventually but that never happened.

Greenteam4 · 09-13-2016, 07:18 PM

Just got my sets in from aliexpress today. I haven't gotten to open them yet but so far they look great. They even have an SDCC sticker on the box. But I'm going to take them out and play with them anyway. Thanks DVD for vouching for the Chinese sellers since I was afraid of knockoffs.

That's excellent news, which seller did you go with in the end?

Meow · 09-14-2016, 01:42 PM

Again, I am thrilled by the pictures and information you provide to your threads viewers - "Simply amazing" is all I have to say looking at the pictures of your shelves you actually put in order a real impressive way. Hats off sir, I like a lot!

I got my money back for my order. So did these turn out to be legit? I've been too busy to go read most of this thread.

They look good to me. They do have an SDCC sticker on them, I'm not sure how legit that is though. I haven't gotten a chance to open them up yet with some family in town, but I will post here when I do. But just looking at them in the package I'm already happy.
