just look up the art on the backcard on the reaction line and you see .as mikey0 said its turbopork that did design this artwork,same guy that do the artwork fore the reaction line. That woued been fine if he did change his style/art to fit the ultimate line. i woued have preferd something close to the orginale boxart but change the mirage turtles with the ultimate turtles instead. Hell he coued have keep the same consept but the turtles etc shoued look like the ultimate line and not the reaction line like it is now. To me it just dont make sense. its like selling a pizza and you Get a calzone deliverd. Or getting the Neca 90 figurines In the 88 toon pacage and vise versa. If this was the artwork fore the reaction van it woued be great but not fore the ultimate van. On another note is it just me that thinks that rocksteady looks like he jumpt out of the nes games just without the pixels on this artwork? Last edited by The Purple Dragon; 12-13-2021 at 07:10 PM. |

I know I’m in the vast minority, and that’s ok, but I do like the super7 van and the box art for it. I expected a modern artist homaging the original playmates art, but this is just fine.
The only thing I wish the van came with are a second set of painted modernized detailed sculpts for the cannons and radar that could swap out with the retro orange ones. |

this line, to me, is taking the original sculpts, staying true to the vibe of those designs, and upgrading them. this means adding more sculpt detail, more paint deco, more texture, and ensuring that no glossy plastic is left un-matte. Bebop is the best example of this. so much more detail added, so much more color added. It remains faithful to the original design vibe, but also adds SO much. this Casey, to me, does not add much. it's effectively the same figure as the original. as such, i'm cancelling my preorder for him. in order for me to continue to support this line and pre-order these figures, i need to see Bebop-level jumps in quality from the original figure to the S7 ultimate. not changes to the original designs, but refinements. especially with the $10 price increase coming. as a final personal note on Casey, i don't like the shoulder/bicep articulation cuts. they look bad. i know some may disagree because they like the added articulation, but you can't tell me this final product looks as good as the concept that they showed originally (that had no cut in the shoulder/bicep). |

Mondo, though, looks really cool, and it's great to see that they listened to the community and fixed his eyes. That would have been a deal breaker. Still, his shirt, shorts, and skateboard are essentially 1:1 copies from the toy with no added refinements. I think this was a missed opportunity and prevents this good figure from being a great figure.
Super7, DM me if you want me to art direct your TMNT figures on a contract basis.

Would be nice if Super 7 would start shipping these to their customers that pre-paid years in advanced. They really know how to drag everything out (including shipping)
