The commets: 80 percent: whineing that the 2012 show was better and that these look bad without ever giving the new show a chance 10 percent: like the figures but not the show the other 10 percent: love the show and will totaly buy these because the new TMNT is actually pretty good (includes me)
PastellTofu 1% people like you listing things in percentages while whining about how people didn’t give the show a chance, when some people actually didn’t like it. P.S I actually really like the show
Found Everyone Except Baron Draxum at Toys R' Us today in Canada. Picked up the turtles and Meat Sweats. The paint apps on the regular release turtles is actually excellent with a few improvements in some places, Donnie's goggles however did lose the colour on the lenses though. Obviously the weapons are all unpainted, but some great accessories included too. Splinter is Huuuge oddly enough
They actually lost their priceless weapons and when April went through the portal, the turtles went there to and April showed them those new mystical weapons.
I think Raph's head is a little too big. But still, can't wait to see TMNT figures on shelves again. With the 2012 line all I ever saw was that Mutated Squirrel and the Shrimp Shredder.
I’m so excited for the retail releases! And I’m looking forward to the bad dudes too. I watched the first five episodes and it was really good! A nice change after the excellent 2012 series. The designs, animation, and overall feel is so vibrant and fun. I am bummed that the retail releases will have less paint though. Come on Playmates! You can do better with TMNT figures. They deserve it 💕
I actually like it that It's different. I never watched the 80's one bit watched the 2003 and 2012 one. I actually quite like thiaa one, the Artstyle is awesome and I like it that it's not serious
Looking at the retail releases in hindsight, $20 was pretty steep for these. The retail releases kept a surprising amount of paint apps. The SDCC packaging was much better however, more "collectible".
You can get these rise of the tmnt nick exclusives On eBay for about 80$💵each, or you can bid them higher like I did, and I won the bid. I got them a home right now, I ain’t lying.
chanelle shaffer thanks for telling me about these figures but I think I am going to wait till the basic figures come out cause it's a lot of money for these but thanks anyway though
I don’t fully understand these figures. Playmates wants to appeal to kids, over collectors, the style points to that too, but these are pricy clearly collector aimed exclusives, and for what you pay, I don’t think they stack up value wise.
Dan, curious to know your thoughts on how they remade Splinter? My thoughts & I'll be releasing a video on this tomorrow on my channel, is that it's a complete disgrace that they made him a "chill" aka Lazy Rat... how can the Master Teacher of Ninjas be lazy? like he's some kind of teenage dropout? Ya know! I mean come on!!! haha.. but I love the new look and everything else so far.
Playmates are so cheap, their exclusive figures has nothing special except for paint details that every other company has on their regular figures! And we end up with extremely cheap figures without any paint details has their regular figures! Thats the reason why ill never buy anything from playmates, they are by far the cheapest toy company
I like the new designs well enough but I would love to see a fun offshoot the way the nick turtles first wave was a bit different than the cartoon style itself. Thought the Nick cartoon was excellent but the aesthetic of that first wave might be my favourite
Hey Dan, if you go to Nickelodeon's UA-cam channel, you can watch a free episode. I just wanted to let you know that Leo's painted sword is not one of his original katanas. His new sword powers up when he's using the special power, but looks like a regular sword when not channeled. I think it's pretty cool that he came with sword in both states!
Looking forward to seeing more of the new ninja turtles franchise. The cartoon and the figures look great. Yeah, there were some major changes, but it all still feels like the turtles.At least they're doing something different with the franchise. It's been recycled over and over. I'm not saying that that's bad, the turtles are one of the few things that that's OK with. I'm really impressed with how nick handled the action of the series. But if people don't like these turtles, well, there's another tmnt film in production. That said, I don't know when it'll come out or if it's a sequel to out of of the shadows or a remake. I'd be fine with either. I love your reviews Dan! PS that smaller sword that comes with Leo is SUPPOSED to be his new LARGE Ōdachi. But I can see how someone would get confused.
At least articulation did not take a hit. And its thoughtful to make them four different types of turtles, with different abilities than were used to its certainly a new generation. Donatello having a shell cover, and more technology in in his regular gear, and michelangelo as an artist are cool changes I like.
I like the new look of the Turtles. It saddens me to know that the retail release will have the already minimal paint work reduced to the bare minimum, colored headscarves. Please don’t cut corners on the articulation!
Both of Leo's weapon accessories are the new sword! His odachi is shown as a regular sword, until he activates its portal-creation power. By the way, can Donatello's hoverpack attach horizontally?
I think these look pretty good I actually like the new series so far it's something difference which isn't bad. TMNT showed that there are different dimension and some of them are bound to be weird and different I like that's they're not doing the same over again!
Hey pixel Dan! I've been a long time TMNT fan since the original cartoon but these action figures look more like ninja frogs! So TMNF!? I think it's because the legs are so skinny! Don't get me wrong, I still want this new series to do well/be successful so TMNT will continue and live on!
Pixel Dan, your reviews are awesome and cool. 😎😎😎 I ❤️❤️❤️your new rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles nick exclusive, man. I got those nick exclusives too. I ain’t lying, I got those from eBay.
Mikeys weapon is a tri sectional staff which is still kinda cool like u said he used em last time and its basically a boe thats nunchucks hehe i have one i loveeee it ✋
I watch about 2 minutes of Rise....not for me. For those are are happy with it, thats fine. I've liked various incarnations of the TMNT (my favorite being the 2003 TMNT series) however this isn't for me.
They look good just expected them to be slightly bigger with bigger legs like in the cartoon. Im battling to decide which Turtle I would get. Donatello does pop
Prefer the new designs, they're actually different to each other besides the variations in colour, and have a personality. If I do get the retail version, I'll just fix up the paint job myself. I've done a custom Amiibo that I'm proud of (and has been very well received be everyone who's seen it), how hard could it be?
Man, those hands look like they're gona drive me crazy. The Nick Turtles had great hands! Why did they make them so wide open this time around? Ah well, I'm probably down for Raph, when the regular releases come out. Gotta add to the Raph Stash.
One thing they have never done is a Yellow turtle... they did light blue for a female turtle in the live action series... they have both primary and secondary colors except green as thats their skin color...I do like the fact they often are shown in different shades of green...but never a Yellow bandanna not even a villian. anyone ever notice this?
I'm a big TMNT fan but these figs and the cartoon I will have to pass. But if this generation likes these dudes then enjoy 👍 theirs still plenty of TMNT stuff out their that will keep the older fans satisfied. All I have to say is good luck with sales because it seems that the audience market was cut in half from what I'm reading and hearing.
The whole point of the turtles is that they’re supposed to be brothers but for some reason and this new version they’re all different species of turtle 🙄
He was talking about how they're suppose to be the same species of turtles, which makes them brothers. The show runners were seemingly unaware of Slash before making Raphael into a snapping turtle.
You can still be brothers despite not being born from the same parents. And as someone else pointed out, Splinter has always been a rat and the boys still consider him their father.
dan have you seen the intro and the 5 episodes the turtles have theyre original weapons from the start and the n get the mystic ones in episode 1 theyre great
Sorry to post a bunch of comments, but in the comparison shots with 5 different ones of each turtle, which line is it over to the left, where Mikey's got the tonfa?
For all the mixed feelings I had when this series was first announced, the designs are growing on me and I love these figures!
The boxes and paint are amazing, these are impossible to come by, I've tried every single search and nothing!
The commets:
80 percent: whineing that the 2012 show was better and that these look bad without ever giving the new show a chance
10 percent: like the figures but not the show
the other 10 percent: love the show and will totaly buy these because the new TMNT is actually pretty good (includes me)
PastellTofu 1% people like you listing things in percentages while whining about how people didn’t give the show a chance, when some people actually didn’t like it.
P.S I actually really like the show
Tbf it wasn't a worthy secessor
Donnie is totally my favorite turtle from the others. I also love his paint job on the elbows and legs.😎
Raphael Is The Leader In The New TMNT Series
The articulation on these look great.
Ahhhh I love that background music it just takes me back!!!
Neat looking figures. And they didn't even ruin my childhood!
Found Everyone Except Baron Draxum at Toys R' Us today in Canada. Picked up the turtles and Meat Sweats. The paint apps on the regular release turtles is actually excellent with a few improvements in some places, Donnie's goggles however did lose the colour on the lenses though. Obviously the weapons are all unpainted, but some great accessories included too. Splinter is Huuuge oddly enough
They actually lost their priceless weapons and when April went through the portal, the turtles went there to and April showed them those new mystical weapons.
am i the only one who didn't forget about the battle shells turtle, they were my favorite
I think Raph's head is a little too big.
But still, can't wait to see TMNT figures on shelves again.
With the 2012 line all I ever saw was that Mutated Squirrel and the Shrimp Shredder.
Hay Dan can you please bring back the history of TMNT toys man it's been years man
I've waited for so long and you NAILED it
I’m so excited for the retail releases! And I’m looking forward to the bad dudes too. I watched the first five episodes and it was really good! A nice change after the excellent 2012 series. The designs, animation, and overall feel is so vibrant and fun. I am bummed that the retail releases will have less paint though. Come on Playmates! You can do better with TMNT figures. They deserve it 💕
Why did they make the weapons so loose for most of them? It makes it harder for me to want them more, unless the retail versions have better grips.
I actually like it that It's different. I never watched the 80's one bit watched the 2003 and 2012 one. I actually quite like thiaa one, the Artstyle is awesome and I like it that it's not serious
Iike Captain America: Civil War I wanna see 2012 Turtles vs 2018 Turtles. That would be awesome!😀
These simple designs have grown on me,I will be picking them up
Oooooo I really like em! I’m definitely going to pick them up
Looking at the retail releases in hindsight, $20 was pretty steep for these. The retail releases kept a surprising amount of paint apps. The SDCC packaging was much better however, more "collectible".
12:17 Try putting the weapon upside down so the chain part hangs down :)
Pretty sure the retail releases for Mikey and leo will have skateboards right?
mikey has a sticker sheet
Those toys are awesome TURTLE POWER!!!! 🐢🐢🐢🐢
You can get these rise of the tmnt nick exclusives On eBay for about 80$💵each, or you can bid them higher like I did, and I won the bid. I got them a home right now, I ain’t lying.
chanelle shaffer oooh cool are u satisfied with the figures?
Yeah, I am satisfied and please with these rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles nick exclusives.😁😁😁
chanelle shaffer thanks for telling me about these figures but I think I am going to wait till the basic figures come out cause it's a lot of money for these but thanks anyway though
You’re welcome,😉 Dude.😁
I am planning to pick up a set of turtles and Splinter. Probably won't open them.
Definitely will get the playset.
I don’t fully understand these figures. Playmates wants to appeal to kids, over collectors, the style points to that too, but these are pricy clearly collector aimed exclusives, and for what you pay, I don’t think they stack up value wise.
After 1 minute watching the series i was like, wow, this is prett bad, but the kids will probably love it.
Dan, curious to know your thoughts on how they remade Splinter? My thoughts & I'll be releasing a video on this tomorrow on my channel, is that it's a complete disgrace that they made him a "chill" aka Lazy Rat... how can the Master Teacher of Ninjas be lazy? like he's some kind of teenage dropout?

I LOVED THEM I HOPE EGYPT WILL GET SOME OF THEM
12:08 actually the donnie came with it but that’s just a silly mistake. Love your content keep up the good work
Both the swords that came with Leo are the Odatchi, one is just the resting sword and the other is the activated sword
I like the new designs well enough but I would love to see a fun offshoot the way the nick turtles first wave was a bit different than the cartoon style itself. Thought the Nick cartoon was excellent but the aesthetic of that first wave might be my favourite

Robert Peterson
It also looks like Michelangelo doesn't come with the stickers that's shown at Toy Fair.
When do these hit mass retail stores??...i like to collect all the different types of tmnt variants
October 1st
Donatello looks really awesome!!!!
Congrats nick you failed not only on the show but on the toys as well you truly are amazing 😉
I think Leo's normal sword is the mystic version when he's not using its powers
Looking forward to seeing more of the new ninja turtles franchise. The cartoon and the figures look great.

Wow they're different species, I never knew that!
Plus I think they're growing on me
At least articulation did not take a hit. And its thoughtful to make them four different types of turtles, with different abilities than were used to its certainly a new generation.
Donatello having a shell cover, and more technology in in his regular gear, and michelangelo as an artist are cool changes I like.
These new turtles kinda look like animated an next mutation to me
I'm looking forward to seeing how the enemies will come out in figure form.
Yeah, same
SupaPixelGirl, yes
Most likely less articulated like they were I'm the previous line.
Thanks yep me too 😃
Back of super pixel girl is mine 😈😈😈
I like the new look of the Turtles. It saddens me to know that the retail release will have the already minimal paint work reduced to the bare minimum, colored headscarves. Please don’t cut corners on the articulation!
the revoltech cost as much as these..and these figures are 80$ on ebay..?
Could the flag on the back of the bandanna come off?
Quick side note: Leo has Odachi swords not katanas.
can we see a new version of The Many Versions of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
Dan have you seen all 5 episodes?
Both of Leo's weapon accessories are the new sword! His odachi is shown as a regular sword, until he activates its portal-creation power.
By the way, can Donatello's hoverpack attach horizontally?
I agree with you Dan we have to give the show a fair shot I like it and I can't wait for the figures to come out
I think these look pretty good I actually like the new series so far it's something difference which isn't bad. TMNT showed that there are different dimension and some of them are bound to be weird and different I like that's they're not doing the same over again!
I like the way the look in the cartoon...but these designs do not translate well to toy form..they look like Happy Meal toys.
How's the show?
(Asking someone who actually watched it)
Hey Pixel Dan Do u know when the toys officially come out My name is Carlos
October 1st
Have you seen the free episode on UA-cam
What turtle is Leo again?
Will these toys be hitting Target #riseofthetmnt
I hated these turtles but after watching the first episode they grew on me i actually liked them
Alan_ 14 how do you like the figures?
Alan_ 14 same
actionfig21 AL they capture the look of the show pretty well do i like them um Yeah i think they’re cool
Were you high when you watched it lol had to be kuz its trash
Arlando Frazier no lmao😂
Dan on Mikey the clip is for the handle of his weapon and the chain is supposed to rap around his body
Hey pixel Dan! I've been a long time TMNT fan since the original cartoon but these action figures look more like ninja frogs! So TMNF!? I think it's because the legs are so skinny! Don't get me wrong, I still want this new series to do well/be successful so TMNT will continue and live on!
QUANDO CHEGA NO BRASIL VOU COMPRA ESSE BRIQUEDO NO NATAL
why doesn't Raf have his Sai???
No Turtle Shadow + Raining Intro?
I look forward to seeing these at the local flea market .
Pixel Dan, your reviews are awesome and cool. 😎😎😎 I ❤️❤️❤️your new rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles nick exclusive, man. I got those nick exclusives too. I ain’t lying, I got those from eBay.
Mikeys weapon is a tri sectional staff which is still kinda cool like u said he used em last time and its basically a boe thats nunchucks hehe i have one i loveeee it ✋
For leo hits not actually his old Katonah its his new one with
Out the mystical powers
Didn’t all the turtles used to be red ear sliders but now they’re different species even though they’re brothers
I watch about 2 minutes of Rise....not for me. For those are are happy with it, thats fine. I've liked various incarnations of the TMNT (my favorite being the 2003 TMNT series) however this isn't for me.
2 minutes?? dude… give it more of a chance.
They look good just expected them to be slightly bigger with bigger legs like in the cartoon. Im battling to decide which Turtle I would get. Donatello does pop
I don't like the eyes. I like my turtle figures to not have eyes
Paint them.. Whote.. Lol
Wish I was at sdcc this year :-(
Leo second sword is the same as the mystic weapon
I'm holding judgement for the cartoon, but I really like these toy designs. They look like fun.
My only gripes are just I don't like colorful stripes on them and colorful armors.
I love ninja turtles
Cant wait to get those toys
Leo's sword that is blue is the same sword as the other one the blue one just is using the mystical powers
I have a red ear slider turtle which is why he is my fave
Prefer the new designs, they're actually different to each other besides the variations in colour, and have a personality.
If I do get the retail version, I'll just fix up the paint job myself. I've done a custom Amiibo that I'm proud of (and has been very well received be everyone who's seen it), how hard could it be?
Ninja frog
Pixel Dan, that’s a odachi katana sword, not his classic katana.🤨🤨🤨
why does everyone keeps attaching this mikey's weapon in the wrong orientation
Hey, I got all of them figures. I got them all at eBay for 199.99.
Thanks for the video, the box are very nice but i hate the new figures
this new look is growing on me.
tawess, me too
Yeah we just need new weapons for raph and mikey
Plus leo should be the leader
Man, those hands look like they're gona drive me crazy. The Nick Turtles had great hands! Why did they make them so wide open this time around? Ah well, I'm probably down for Raph, when the regular releases come out. Gotta add to the Raph Stash.
Can I have those if u buy another case of them
The first episode is out online from Nick. It's not bad. I am.picking up these figures tho. They look great
One thing they have never done is a Yellow turtle... they did light blue for a female turtle in the live action series... they have both primary and secondary colors except green as thats their skin color...I do like the fact they often are shown in different shades of green...but never a Yellow bandanna not even a villian. anyone ever notice this?

The whole point of the turtles is that they’re supposed to be brothers but for some reason and this new version they’re all different species of turtle 🙄
And in each iteration Splinter has been their father and that's never been biologically true. Blended families are pretty common nowadays.
So you’re going to defend the way they look and how they change the characters?
Leetha K7 No, I'm not defending those qualities because you didn't mention those in your post.
He was talking about how they're suppose to be the same species of turtles, which makes them brothers. The show runners were seemingly unaware of Slash before making Raphael into a snapping turtle.
You can still be brothers despite not being born from the same parents. And as someone else pointed out, Splinter has always been a rat and the boys still consider him their father.
dan have you seen the intro and the 5 episodes the turtles have theyre original weapons from the start and the n get the mystic ones in episode 1 theyre great
Why do they have to be exclusive
Sorry to post a bunch of comments, but in the comparison shots with 5 different ones of each turtle, which line is it over to the left, where Mikey's got the tonfa?
These look pretty barebones... can you have any less paint ???
Actually Leo has an odatchi sword not a katana
Can I buy Donnie off your hands, he's so cool!!!
They look like the playmates rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles
