Went back to read the “bio” on the box…. It’s just about the Turtles 😂 Not even about these two
That is the one flaw with the packaging in this line, that it is just the same old blurb that has appeared on every single two pack since the line started. I really wish they would change it and just put a few words up to describe the specific characters in each box. I don't even care what they say, just give me some different words to read so I can get a small dopamine hit from it. 🙂
@@nicholashill8724 haha. I agree! And put the episode name and number on it
@@NostalgiaUnboxed I’ve been brainstorming little cards (sort of like the bio cards included on the vintage Playmates card backs) with character & first appearance info to display with my NECA cartoon collection.
I love all the custom stuff you’ve been putting out so far; feel free to run with the idea, if you’d like, and put it up on your ko-fi. I’d buy ‘em. 👍🏾👌🏾
@@_Sesquipedal oh that’s a cool idea!!
Jersey Red, when standing side by side with Marvel Legends 2 pack Mary Jane looks like a before and after, at whichever order.
Oh, interesting haha
Hey man, I'm a long time collector, and have been a very frequent watcher of toy reviewers for loooong time as well, and I gotta say, you've very quickly become a member of my top 3 favorite reviewers. love the two way split of seeing you and the figures, love the personality, and love the humor. You've got a big fan in me man, i even watch reviews of yours for toys i've literally no intention of ever buying. k
Keep up the good work!
The ultimate compliment and words of kindness! Thank you so much!! Now how do I get to number 1? 🤔😂
Jersey red is totally crush worthy.
Haha
Speeky geeky and geek dad life would be a perfect fit for you. I love mascotbot. But his content so so funny! Maybe with the mad hatter
In talks with GeekDadLife and MadHatter! Haha. Thank you!
@Nostalgia Unboxed oh man really! This is going to epic!
Deud, luvd the great vid!!!
I completely feel the sameway about the new wave NECA Toon Figs and the state of this epic Toy Line in general. :)
Also, the posing segment was DYNAMITE!! Thats sum absolutely awesome LA Fearfactory Heavy-Metal right there. 👍😎👍
Hahaha, thank you so much
Grunt and Jersey Red are my two favourite characters from the entire TMNT series, this box set was a dream come true for me, how dare you say that no one cares about these characters! 😀
Excellent review as always!
Thank you! Hey, I said she was everyone’s favorite! Haha
And despite Jersey Reds fanfare and first ever action figure release she's only ever appeared in two episodes of the 1987 tv series! And ditto for the rest of Bebop and Rocksteady's Gang.😉🤔📺🐢
Two episodes is more than a lot of others got. Haha! Thank you for always sharing the knowledge!
Stop making me want things I wasn't interested in! Great review!
Haha! Thank you! Let me know when you get your set. 😂
Have you come across the channel The Turtle Nexus? It's a bit silly at times with the random A.I. voiceover work, but it's definitely an awesome channel to learn about a particular Ninja Turtles character, to the history of the Archie comics run. And the videos aren't too short, nor too long, they're _juuuuuust_ right.
That’s great! Thanks for the heads up
I see no one has said what that can is really supposed to be yet, so I’m your Huckleberry.
“Umm, actually… according to Trevor Zammit that can is supposed to be the aerosol antidote that they spray Michelangelo with to turn him from human back into a turtle in the episode featuring Jersey Red (S3 E40)”
🤓🤓🤓
Whaaaaaaa!? That’s awesome. Thank you so much! Haha
@@NostalgiaUnboxed It can still be a water bottle, if you like. “We are the music makers and we are the dreamers of dreams” 🤙🏾
@@_Sesquipedal haha!
Excellent (and funny) review - loved it!
Really good to see you bringing something new to the toy review space.
Your channel deserves to keep growing and to be a real success.
Keep 'em coming.
Thank you so much!! That’s so incredibly kind of you
I look forward to the posing every time
Thank you!!
Red is definitely my favorite!
She’s a rockstar for sure!
Theres more to fun than numbers but if you were a 9 to 12 year old kid with your same enthusiasm and knowledge of the stuff , you’d have 3.2 million views.
All of us adult children aside. Kids still rule the toy world. We merely cling vicariously to the memories of childhood ,then secretly break out our 1966 era G.I. Joes and Jonny west action figure’s , ect..
Great work!
Thanks for the upload!
Long live the youth in us all and the joy a toy brings.
May we never get old
I had to pass on them partially for space. they do add some variety to the Foot clan side of your display. Cheaper than Foot Soldiers.
Yeah, that’s understandable. Space is always an issue over here. Gotta be very selective
Those extra hands are so bizarre aren't they! The longer monster nails don't look right on the human skin hands, but was that just because they wanted the gripping fingers to fold in and so didn't want the nails to be too long with the fingers in that position? Then with the green grabbing hands they could 'afford' to make the nails longer with the hand in that position? Really weird.
That’s my thought. Easier to add them onto the default mold too
@@NostalgiaUnboxed The more I think about this, if we look at the other members of Bebop and Rocksteady's gang, we have Scrag, Tall Thug and Short Gangster. Now Scrag's mutant bat form only really has 'Gotcha' grabbing hands and he doesn't have mutant bat hands that can grasp his human weapons, (you can balance the sledgehammer in the bat hands but I wouldn't really count that personally as the weapon falls out fairly easily).
Then we look at Tall Thug, and I think he comes with one big mutated shrew hand, and one small shrivelled up shrew hand, and neither can grasp his human weapons. This is also true with Short Gangster where his mutated dog hands can't grasp his weapons either.
So the other mutant members of this gang haven't been provided with different hands for grasping weapons, so maybe Grunt's lizard form wasn't supposed to even come with two sets of hands and the real factory error was including these extra hands in the box period, as opposed to correctly including them but in the wrong colour. If Grunt had come with lizard green weapon grasping hands then that in itself would have been weird when comparing him with the other mutant figures.
The plot thickens! 😀
@@nicholashill8724 oh wow! I haven’t messed with the other sets yet, so thank you for sharing this! What a wild choice then to have these extra hands with claws. Haha
@@NostalgiaUnboxed No problem, happy to help!
I wish Jersey Red had a mutant head, but she is pretty darned badass, regardless.
One of the few female characters too. Still waiting on them to announce the old lady with the machine gun from episode 1! Haha
@@NostalgiaUnboxed Grandma with gun yes!🧓🔫🤗👍
@@NostalgiaUnboxed How about Mirage comics version of April O'Neill whom is actually a mixed race and not white! It would be cool to see that!🤔🤗🙏👍
Jersey Red was body positive before body positivity was a thang 😂
#JerseyRedLifeStyle
@@NostalgiaUnboxed She is actually voiced by Renae Jacobs whom's also voiced April O'Neill, Lotus Blossom among others in the 1987 tv series. 🗣🤗👍📺
@@SuperMarioBrosIII that’s cool!
such a good haulathon! totally got what i wanted!! great review!
Thank you! Glad you got everything!
do we really say "up the camera hole!" tho? hahahaha
@@durkadann2943 it’s possibly going to be my catchphrase 😂
@@NostalgiaUnboxed well you know theres been worse...no. no there really hasnt.
@@NostalgiaUnboxed lol oh i didnt. not even close.
Love these videos! Mad hatter is awesome too
Indeed he is. He is who I watched before I started my channel
Jersey red is amazing.. that big red bush under that fat stomachache
oh my
I agree with you about the inconsistent cell shading too. For example Casey Jones in this line has darker shading on the backs of his bare skin arms, but Grunt and Jersey Red don't have any shading on their skin? And I would expect there to be dark green on the back of the Lizard body too, but it looks like it is all just one colour. Maybe it was to save slightly on cost due to the fact that this pack gave us two and a half figures?
That’s a good point, maybe so. I’m the end, I definitely prefer no cell shading, so I hope they need to save more cost on the rest of the figures. Haha
@@NostalgiaUnboxed Ha, do you know what, I thought the cell shading was a bit odd at first but I actually kinda like the cell shading now because it gives you more colours to look at with each figure. Since they are from the cartoon, many of the figures only have 4 or 5 colours on their whole body. However, with the cell shading, this increases it to maybe 6 to 8 colours now, and it gives you a reason to occasionally turn the figures round 180 degrees on your shelf to allow your eyes to take in the different colours that are present.
With the different front and rear colour palettes, it basically gives each figure in the line two different 'looks' for the price of one.
@@nicholashill8724 a very nice way to look at it! More for less for sure!
I like these guys alright…have to admit that I have little to no memory of them from the cartoon, though!
Same! Haha!
I was patiently waiting for you to review this two-pack set! Interestingly enough Jersey Red seemed to luckout on not having a mutated form LOL! 🤗❓🙏🙋♀
Thank you for watching. I took a little too long to get to it because I was occupied with all my prints. Haha. She does change in the show right?
@@NostalgiaUnboxed Nope! I guess she missed the Ooze? Maybe we'll get a custom mutated version of her someday?🧟♀🙏😉👍
@@SuperMarioBrosIII I hope so!
Yesssssss!!!! I've been waiting for this review!!! Jersey Red for the win!! Great video as always!
Thank you so much!
I think I'm the dummy who doesn't like it lol but that's just cause I don't collect animated tmnt (haulathon was an easy pass this year believe it or not lol) and I have no clue who these two are haha
That’s a great place to be as a collector! Haha. You saved about $600!
@@NostalgiaUnboxed Actually at scalper prices that would closer to $900!😮💵💰🤑
You need to be in a livestream with the Mad Hatter dude
Haha. We have been talking!
@@NostalgiaUnboxed Wow, that will be cool as you guys have great channels! You both don't do any pandering and just tell it like it is!
@@nicholashill8724 haha, definitely! And thank you
😂 Elbow drupe
😂
Wonder why we have 2 different tmnt logos like we get our old school and the Nickelodeon one I know Nickelodeon owns tmnt but still just a little odd.
I think the other one is just to establish the “modern” branding partnership with Nickelodeon. Like to make it official or something maybe?
@@NostalgiaUnboxed Fo sho
Awesome review, once again! I didn’t realize lizard boy came with those unpainted hands. I’ll have to look at my again.
It’s a strange issue. Apparently none of the other gang members have gripping hands for their mutated form so this doesn’t make sense as a choice for him.
Shred mondo shreeeed
haha
