OMG, I LOVE THESE!!! I like to imagine these characters are AU versions of the turtles in a cool, Steampunk-style, Usagi Yojimbo-type universe, which would totally fit my personal aesthetic! And if you're worried about fraying fabric, you could easily fix it by just adding a dab of fabric-glue on the edges. Also, another name for those types of items is "sheath". Keep it up! =)
A curse on your loins! You got me into these and the Joytoy TMNT line. So I’m going broke 😩💸💸 But seriously, thanks. These are so cool “alternative” figures I never knew existed 👍
Awesome. I’ve been wanting to see what you do with these. Still waiting on my Splinter to ship. I really like the different looks that come with these. The Donnie looks alone are so versatile. I really hope this line continues to flesh out after hitting all the main character beats. Could you imagine a Not Muck Man or a Not Baxter with this take?
@@NostalgiaUnboxed oh yeah it was a few days ago. It feels like the Bebop's Bay movie Turtles style. But in scale with the Fury line. He will be amazing for sure. But let me ask a question about a feeling: isn't anybody missing a good NOT SHREDDER 1/12 figure?? We have a lot of 1/12 new brands in the middle of an antropomorphic mayhem and I am wondering if anybody could make a decent 1/12 not Shredder...
I like that all you have to do is change the names weapons and add clothing to avoid being sued. I like stuff like that. These figures look amazing. I am wondering why the Rat is more expensive. What is cool is they'll fit in with other turtle lines. Say they're alternate versions from other dimensions or worlds. You can call them samurai Splinter Donatello etc. it's your collection nobody can stop you.
The "company" is based out of China, and has ALREADY changed names once after the "Leonardo" figure was released. It seems like it's one guy who knows people at a factory who can get these made in quality comparable, or better in some cases, to mass retail lines. There continue to be unlicensed Transformers toys put out by countless companies because of them being based out of China, it's not worth the cost and hassle to Hasbro/Playmate/.etc to go after them, BECAUSE they'll just open under a new name and keep doing it, because it's not frowned upon there. Hell, it's a thriving industry. Just look at Wish.
A String walks into a bar. The bartender says "We dont serve strings!" So he goes outside... ties himself up, and musses up his hair and goes back inside... The bartender says... "hey, are you a string?" The String says, "Nope, Im a frayed knot!"
@@NostalgiaUnboxed i like how you comment in each vid, you makes vids with dedication and love. also how did you get that mikey is it the 2024 exclusive l?
These figs look good but the one thing that's throwing me off from buying them all (especially now Mikey is up for preorder) is the size. Would've much preferred them to be closer to 6 inches
@@NostalgiaUnboxed Yep, in the 90s live action films, the ninja Turtles were just 5'2 tall. The vintage 90s Mattel Turtles toys were also only 4.5 inches and kids were buying them all up. Hell, even the newest iteration of Turtles "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem 2023" are just 4.5 inches in toy form.
@@NostalgiaUnboxed After putting more thought into it, you're right. But when looking at the reissue of legally distinct Leo I can't tell if it comes with the bonus stuff to make him accurate. Did you have to buy it separately or does it come included? I only ask because Donnie has his included but you have to order Mikey's separate
i convinced my self with this review, and they came up today, thank u now i get in another collection hahahaha. awesome review man, they are incredible
@@NostalgiaUnboxed did you get the Mezco turtles? They look great. I didn’t preorder because I didn’t like the promo pics and thought it was too expensive. Now looking at the reviews. I regret not putting money down. Have you looked at the loyal subjects IDW turtles? They have rat king and Alopex coming out soon.
yeah I have the Don and extra pack and the baby turtles and Don are really well painted. I have the Leo on pre-order since he is getting a second run. Mikey looks good and they are making a Bebop as well. I want to get that FuRay Planet Wilderness Hunter Crocker to go with these guys since I like the look of the scale.
Hey! Great video, I’m torn between getting these Samurai Force Not turtles or the NECA last ronin line, if you HAD TO pick one which would you pick? Keep up the great work!
@@Sammo212 haha! There’s a comment section when buying. Let em know! They really need some referral links, but they do have that points system that can save you some when checking out
Kinda wish NECA would have gone this route for splinter in the TMNT X UM line. A werewolf rat, would have been great! But I guess Splinter with a fedora and glasses is good too... 🥲 (Crying in the corner)
This line is such a hidden gem, I would never have known about it without a very small list of UA-cam channels
They really are great!

Great point! Thanks
The detail on these guys is amazing. Very tempted to pick these up. Also those baby turtles were really cool especially posed with Not Splinter.
Thank you
I'm torn about this series... They're TMNT but they're NOT. They're beautiful but not quite familiar enough (looking at you, master)
There's always room for new
@@NostalgiaUnboxed I bought them 🤣
Hilarious about the “worm”! 😂 You called out exactly what I did 😅
😂
Great review, great visuals and an even greater personality! Thank you sir! I just ordered mine.
Thank you. Hope you enjoy it!
Omg these figures are GORGEOUSLY detailed!!!! 😃😃😃 Excellent review as always!!!
Thank you!
I have everything from this line so far! I cant wait to get the rest! And it looks like they teased the upcoming figures on the back!!!
Mikey is up for preorder and he looks like the best one so far
A curse on your loins! You got me into these and the Joytoy TMNT line. So I’m going broke 😩💸💸

Hey, where is that worm going @4:40?
Lol
You got me with the tail thing in the first half, ngl. 😅
😂
Gt goku in the backround again 🔥🔥🔥
So much to review so little time
@@NostalgiaUnboxed i like how you comment in each vid, you makes vids with dedication and love. also how did you get that mikey is it the 2024 exclusive l?
Aww man I am so tempted. I have the Leo figure but was considering selling it instead of spending another $200 on this line at least.
The new Mikey looks insane
If they sent you some samples, I hope that means they're getting their stuff in. I've had them on order since they were first offered and cannot wait.
I was worried for a second they were available now. And I might have missed them! I've had mine on pre-order for long while, too!
Soon!
That gun is called a match lock it is a single shot muzzle loader
Thank you!
@@NostalgiaUnboxed you are welcome, I enjoy your videos
I did get the non-Leo. You are welcome to borrow it and review it! I haven't opened it yet.
@@oteror I appreciate that
Man i really want the Not master Splinter. got some great detail and articulation. that price is a little on the steep side but looks super cool.
Worth it!
These figs look good but the one thing that's throwing me off from buying them all (especially now Mikey is up for preorder) is the size. Would've much preferred them to be closer to 6 inches

Wow master splinter looks very unique. Kind of almost like a mcfarlane style. Missed you my friend. Tmnt is the coolest
McFarlane?? Haha nooooo
@@NostalgiaUnboxed I'm assuming they meant the old mcfarlane statue line lol, they did a reimagining-thing like this a way back
i convinced my self with this review, and they came up today, thank u now i get in another collection hahahaha. awesome review man, they are incredible
Glad you like them!
This just reminded me, when we getting Mikey and Raph preorders?
@@lobo11180 Mikey has been up: 5ktoys.com/products/preorder-rage-toys-1-12-samurai-force-wave-3-the
I finally gave in and ordered these. Should be here in two or three weeks. Plus preordered “Not Leo”.
Awesome!!

5K needs to hurry up with my preorder!
In time! Haha
I don't like thinking about your process for figuring out where to stick the worm...
🤷♂️
You almost got me with the worm ngl 😆
😂
Great Not Not joke at the start of the video Jonathan!🐢🐁🦯📜
Thank you!
Which head sculpt do you like better? For Leo I prefer the helmet look but for Donnie I love the one with goggles
Helmet-less, but I don't have Leo to try
@NostalgiaUnboxed yea I heard you say that at some point after i made the comment, are you gonna grab the re-release?
That “worm”
lol
Another awesome post from nostalgia keep up the good work and entertainment
Glad you enjoyed it
Great review! Love your posing... subscribed!
Thanks!
No lie the story on the back of the box is kinda badass.
Thank goodness haha
Hey! Great video, I’m torn between getting these Samurai Force Not turtles or the NECA last ronin line, if you HAD TO pick one which would you pick? Keep up the great work!
Last Ronin
@@DantesToyz both!
Both!
⚔Amazing video Johnny!🪱🐢🐁🪤
Thank you very much!
Getting these of if I can find them!
If you can find them?
@@NostalgiaUnboxed yes they sellout or have to overpay on eBay
The worm is probably the tail😂
I didn’t know you knew that😂
lol
Wow where did you get this?
In the video description
Dude I couldn’t tell if you was joking about the tail being a worm or not lol.
got em
Erathworm Jim, he’s really mighty fine. Earthworm Jim he’s a hero for all time.
Hahaha
Order off Gundamit? Still waiting on my order from 5KToys 😢
5k is still listed as preorder
@@NostalgiaUnboxed yea I just meant they haven’t done the 2nd payment thing. I was asking did you order from Gundamit,they have “Don” in stock atm
@@NostalgiaUnboxed yea I meant did you order off Gundamit because “Don” is in stock there. Yes I’m waiting on the 2nd payment soon as 5K gets them 😞
the Splinter is pretty much the Michael Bay movie design
A bit
"he needs to brush his teeth" laughed my face off
😂
just pre-order (not) Mikey and bought donnie, Splinter, and the extras pack....guess I'm spending $150 on Leo on the after market :(
They are releasing Leo again. So no need
@@NostalgiaUnboxed awesome! Would be rad if there was a way to let 5K know your channel lead me to them and spending all my money :D
@@Sammo212 haha! There’s a comment section when buying. Let em know! They really need some referral links, but they do have that points system that can save you some when checking out
If these turtles didn’t have visible nostrils I would be invested in this line
I think it’s actually done well. Usually I don’t like that look (Michael Bay poop)
Bandolier is the word I think you're looking for to describe the grenade holder
Thank you!
Wonder if “Samurai Force” how some other form of media
I don’t understand
I meant have not how like comics or tv shows because some of these bootlegs actually have more than just toys
The worm! Ha ha. Oh man, that is funny.
😂
I’ve searched everywhere but I haven’t seen Raphael yet…
He hasn’t been made yet
@@NostalgiaUnboxed oh😭
The worm was a tail lol
No, i don’t think so
The worm is his tail ?
I don't think so
@@NostalgiaUnboxed i didn’t think so either, I’m pretty sure it’s just a worm !!
@@prollydatboi8841 😐
Geek Dad Life and Mad Hatter brought me here. And I ask what did I ever do to them 😢
😂
💔
Mainly Donatello
🤷♂️
Wouldn’t the scroll teach you ninjitsu and not karate because they are ninja turtles…
🤷
Those long ass arms and hands on splinter look a bit strange. Almost werewolf like.
A bit, yeah
🐢🐢🐢🐢 Great review.
Thank you
Reminds me of Michael bay splinter
lol
Splinter reminds me of Chucky cheese after a spiritual journey
lol
For me was a no for the size of the turtles, but splinter, sorry, master scales good with Neca
I love them for their own section on the shelf
Man, I want them so badly. Don't even collect tmnt. I just like it
Yeah, quality stuff can make you feel that way. It's art!
im so confused about these turtles and rats they look cool though
Very cool
I'm going to ask for that donnie for my birthday
do it
@@NostalgiaUnboxed I will
Hella turtles lately
Yeah, boi
It’s a tale
“Tail”. And I’m glad you didn’t edit your comment
😂@@NostalgiaUnboxed
It's a tail
yes... it is a tail
Earth worm jim
Oh the worm is the tail
@@chaunceybillips2533 yeah haha
These are not not amazing and I don't don't like them. Two negatives = positive.
🤓 Now if only I could find them somewhere.
Wild 😂
worm hahahaha youre so cute
🪱
Why is there a worm in "Not Splinter's" bum bum?
He must have eaten some trash and got worms
Kinda wish NECA would have gone this route for splinter in the TMNT X UM line. A werewolf rat, would have been great! But I guess Splinter with a fedora and glasses is good too... 🥲 (Crying in the corner)
Haha, that would look cool
