TMNT Action Vinyls! The Loyal Subjects

The Loyal Subjects TMNT Action Vinyls! These are badass but I will let the pics speak for themselves. The amount of articulation of these small vinyl figures is awesome!

What's with the arms? They all look like they're falling off. Also, for the price (their prices, not yours), it's a shame their paint isn't neater.

I was excited and snapped these photos right after unboxing. Because there is so much range of motion, the joints can be pulled out to the point where there is a slight gap, but easily pushed back. These joints are pretty tight so it's very difficult to pull them all the way out of the socket.

I wasn't trying to diss your goods or anything, mind you. These are the first "in the wild" photos I've seen of them, so I'm curious. What's the range of motion supposed to be like? I thought it was like the OT turtles, just the whole up & down kinda thing, but those joints make it seem like they can swirl around like a Nick turtle does sorta (I have no idea how to describe these kinds of things, hopefully you understand me).

It's all good I'm still playing with my collection and seeing what they do and don't do.

Range of motion depends on the figure. Raphael for instance has ball jointed neck, shoulders, thighs, and ankles. Wrist swivels. For the shoulders if the joints are snapped all the way in, you get back and forth motion. If you pull them out to where there is a slight gap, you get the rotation.

Gotcha. The arm thing though, is it designed to do that? Or is it just a result of how they made it? & thanks for answering my questions.

Not sure if that's intended or not….

I will say the only glaring quality control issue I've encountered so far was a red/gray foot soldier with 2 right hands. Bummer since this is a rare figure. But I'll be keeping that one for myself anyways.

That's the risk of blind boxes. Blah.

I gotta say, first I was all in for the Casey figure, but judged by your pic, I don't like it anymore. The mask is wayyy to shiney. Shredder still looks cool though.

Maybe you could show us some pics of the rest of the gang

Lol don't judge too much by my pics. I have an iPhone 4 still
His mask is a matte silver color. Same as shredder's helm.

Yeah, these look amazing! I'm so thrilled that we're finally getting original Mirage styled stuff in the general collector market. It gives me a good feeling like back when NECA first released their turtles figures.

Well I went ahead and bid on Shredder and I won! I payed for Shredder was considering going for Casey but I don't think I can afford to pay so much a two 3" figure righ this second it would have wiped my paypal account clean. Maybe I will look for casey after a guy who bought an item from me pays for it glad to get Shredder though, I've been wanting a mirage Shredd for a while
