- What’s going on guys? Today we look at the Black belt versions of the Storage Shell ninja turtles. We ask the question if they are worthy of being titled a TMNT Holy Grail. What do you think?
Incredibly fun video, I love the archival footage spliced in as well, really informative and engaging, shell yeah!
Dude this brings back so many child hood memories. I am almost in tears. I remember seeing stuff like that on the news as well and I loved seeing the turtle toy commercials. The few times I loved commercials!!
The storage shell turtle figures saw a second rerelease in early 2023. I found mine at Walmart last month and was thrilled to get them. I had the originals when I was a kid and wished I still had them.
Yup , I got mine to ! Wish they would have been out when I made this video so I could have included them in the vid. Thanks for watching !
I never knew they made black belt versions of these guys. I will say however, as cool as they are, the Purple belt was what initially drew kid me to Donny in the store in the first place and made always want all 4. At the time of discovering Donny, I think he was the only one like this Meijer had at the time. Still a Fond memory.
I only ever had the black belt version of the storage shell Mikey. I didn't know they came with color belts before. That explains my confusion when I saw the re-release had color belts.
Yup , still have it ?
I found a black belt RAF in my collection! Thanks man!
I still have a couple in a box somewhere. I remember not liking them as much because of the belts being black. Didn’t like the colored weapons either but kept them because of the cool head sculpts. I favored the originals because the belts on the NES games matched the bandannas too.
I got a mention! Hell yeah! Loved this vid man. Very informative!
Wow! The first clip was my hometown - Southend (U.K.) I didn’t like the way they were pouring those MOCs into that trolley 🤣 Great video man.
Wow cool! Thank you !
These are so hard to find and imo the best looking tmnt figures.
I agree
1 word- AWESOME!!!! Huge fan of TMNT. Especially Raphael was always my favorite turtle. Nevee knew they made black belted variants if these! I just picked up a 2023 re release Raphael from Wal-Mart for $9.99 only other one they had was Leonardo, definitely no Donnie or Mikey. If had all 4 I would've gotten all of them for that price for my collection. Between Turtles, Power Rangers, Wrestling figures and Hot wheels cars that's what I mostly collect. I also have the 1988 Toys R Us 2012 release of the OG Turtle figures carded.
Heck yea ! Nice man! Sometimes it tough findin em especially these black belts.
I frickin' love the translucent accessories...🤘🏼💯✔️
Absolutely, that’s what I’m talking about ! Someone fired up for these !
Just amazing 😳 and totally agree I view them as a grail rarity alone and how crazy they are to complete must be among grail’s
Lol hearing "Cowabunga" in a British accent was awesome. Not a huge collector but growing up with the turtles, I've been dabbling in the reissues. I picked up all four of the newest SS Brothers at Target here in the states. The quality isn't what it was, obviously, but overall they feel and look good. The black belts look so good though.
Yea I’m not picking up everything just some things here and there. UA-cam isn’t exactly paying the bills yet. Lol but I appreciate the support and wasn’t it cool to hear that. I was so happy he did that for me !
Finally a video that that shows an comparison.. You can see the 94 version is a new mold based on some of the details are thicker than the original.. The peg that pokes out on the black belt looks bigger, even the seams are molded differently. I own a few of these reissue figures and they all have variations in the mold. I would say the numbers underneath the feet is what determins it's a remold. Look at the Bebop reissue and you'll see he under his shoes he has edges which the original is just flat.
Yea man , I was really surprised that there wasn’t that many videos on these fantastic figures. Glad you like it. There really isn’t a whole bunch of info on them so , did my best with what I had . Lol
Look what we pay now!
Right.. lol
I just sold Leo, Don, & Raph LOOSE black belts storage shell turtles on ebay for $323. I never knew the belt variation until I listed them. I have the original releases still MOC...
Another awesome video!
great video!! where did You get the stands for the figures?
They are neca stands from target
Easy to do Just paint them. I bought a extra slam dunking don. I casted the 2 parts in Orange plastic. & I painted one of them into the white jersey don. & now can't tell the difference. I did that with a Original Heman too[ I painted him into Wonder bread He-man. I bought a extra mike sewer surfer. Loose with nothing. I have a complete one. I am going to cast his accessories into Surfer leo's too.
Very cool . Hit me up on insta . Maybe send me some videos of them to use in a video
Some how I missed every rerelease. Some reason I thought only one of the turtles had a black belt. With the others colored. Since no one had full sets as a child I developed my understanding of them.
In blunt I assumed the black/colored were a single release.
Don’t feel to bad , I Hadn’t ever seen one till last year
Just found a loose black belt Leonardo with his two swords in good condition at a local Toy Show yesterday.. someone actually had him in there hands and decided not to buy him and put him back down in the pile.I picked him up right away and only paid $5 bucks!
Score!!!! Nice !! They are such cool variants !
@@ShellbackToyRewind is it common for the shell hinge to be loose it does come off the body easily but it's not broken.
Yes , can be pretty loose at times .
@@ShellbackToyRewind I just sent you a Photo on Instagram.
idk, a little too niche to be a grail, only to people who have to have every release of every thing
For some reason I feel like your right but I’m still gonna disagree. Haha
Where did you find the turtle holder/disc?
NECA stands at target I believe
Where did you get the clear stand?
Target. Made by NECA
🔥🔥💯💯💯💯🙏🏻🙏🏻🤤🤤🤤🤤
The originals are better in every way.
I like them both.
Now in 2023 they are back again. 😆 🤣 😂 😹 😅
Not the black belts though!
@ShellbackToyRewind true, those will always be the Goat. But yeah they brought them back. And those things are still selling.. it's awesome!
