Very, very nice. Looks just like I would imagine a Neca Splinter would have looked like.

Awesome! Saw this on eBay a few days ago. Nice to see that it came from the Drome. I'll need to keep my eye if there are any more made. hmmm...

congrats on the winner of the auction. $91! nicely done, the sculptor should be very proud of his work.

I would love to own it but could not justify the cost, personally It looks VERY close to what I believe an official NECA Splinter would have looked like. Every time I look at it I just can't help but admire it.

Yea definetly congrats. I would have loved to bid myself, but I just picked up the NECA turtles off another board for a pretty good price. I'm trying to watch my spending. Maybe next time gadget. Next time.

That's a pretty good Splinter custom, he fits perfectly with the NECA TMNT, I need to get me one of those Splinters. Not sure if you were going for an exact Mirage comics style or not, but I think his outfit was white in the comics, kinda like in the movies.

I've seen a couple of people create this custom but your version is my favorite. The little details on it make it really stand out.

i love seeing these NECA style figures... but only if they look great. and this one is great. it actually fits in with the Turtles figures. Although i have to agree with Playhouse that Splinter always had deep shading in the face back in the early issues of TMNT. not sure how it would look on this custom though... might just ruin your awesome work. so...

Here's a somewhat better pic of height comparison:

I've seen covers where it was closer to the 80s cartoon splinter in color, that's what I decided to go with. That's not to say I don't have plans for a white/brown combo one......

Yeah, the hardcore shading looks really weird. I think that's why NECA didn't shade their guys either, and just did the detailing.


Thanks for all the kind words everyone, great to see such a response from other 'dromers!
