You are one of the few reviewers that addressed the unnecessary heavy wash, paint sloppiness and the over sculpting of the limbs. Thank you I thought I was losing it... They've made significant progress sculpting wise. But they got a loooooong way to go overall.
Got two of mine this week. Waiting on two more and Shredder. I ordered 1/12 weapons for all of them to replace the ones they came with. Stainless steels katanas, wooden nunchucks with chains, a very detailed wooden Bo, and stainless steel sai. So far, so awesome. These are way better than those $400 turtles that look the same and have too many accessories to use.
just ordered the B&W version, the presentation is sick and the same sculpt, can keep in box and not worry about the QC issues... although I am debating getting these too lol....
Been waiting to see your review! Love the detail look, but I see the same issues with everyone elses figs. The paint looks sloppy and Leo’s scabbards break. Im waiting on the non painted the sculpt is awesome tho!! 👍🏽👏🏽👏🏽💯
Awe, I feel so honored. Thank you! Yeah I knew going in the bst axn was riddled with issues. These aren't as bad as I expected, but I definitely don't blame you for waiting for the $20 version
Thanks for this. So I really wanted these after SDCC, have a set of the normal ones pre-ordered (I canceled this from BBTS cause I got charged at a bad week) but I been thinking about it, and I dunno if I wanna drop 90 bucks on these after buying so much NECA the past few months, Super7 and 2003 TMNT and all the QC issues sorta make me wanna cancel all but Raph- but I'd feel weird not having the others and I do like IDW- but money got tight.
I have definitely been there many many times haha Yeah theres so much coming out right now its rough. I will say given the Loyal Subjects history, These probably wont be hard to find. And the standard versions will likely be even easier to find. IMO definitely worth buying, but they aren't perfect.
i really liked these turtles the accessories are nice , the weapons could be improved as far as durability of the swords mine broke while trying to put them in the hands, as well as the sheath was part broken when i opened it. I got the clean version before they had these washed version . the wash looks like it was done fast, i feel it could have been done better in that they put it everywhere and alot of it in some parts. . kind of takes away more than it adds . good video .
I'll be honest, I've been put off by the very lukewarm reviews from Pixel Dan, Unparalleled Universe and now you. It just seems like they have a lot of the flaws of other BST AXN figures and the ugly knee and elbow articulation cuts are still the major hurdle.
Yeah I haven't seen anyone blown away. I will say if you are a hardcore IDW fan, they are worth having until something better comes out, but if not then hold off.

That's kinda surprising to me tbh. I agree though they are steadily improving but have a long way to go

Damn dude that sounds awesome. If you posted pics anywhere tag us I'd love to see them.
Are you talking about the mezco ones? Lol
Cool review man. They look extremely spectacular and badass 🤘🔥🔥🔥
Thanks man! I appreciate it
@@ModernToyfare it's been a great pleasure man 😊🤙
They look good but lots of QC issues I hope mine are okay I’ll definitely touch them up. Thanks for the honest review
Yeah of course! 2/4 of mine were pretty much fine so fingers crossed. I'm keeping my ee preorders hoping they will be better

I keep seeing that set at Walmart. It's very very tempting
@@ModernToyfare value for money is pretty good. Do it!

Nice review. Nice set. Where did you get these 4 from?
Thanks! I initially had a set preordered from entertainment earth but then found them at them at a convention last weekend
@@ModernToyfare OK thanks. They look great.

Im a bit late but I planned on getting these unwashed, print some heads I sculpted and just switch out those heads
Loved the review tho🔥
Thanks!!!
These TMNT are the CORRECT height to 6" figs. They're SUPPOSED to be in the 4' to 5' range
Couldn't agree more. its a nice change of pace
"Sir, the painjobs on our figures turned out terrible."
"Just dunk them in some blackwash, they'll never know the difference"
mega cool
Yeah they are pretty dope

I like the bodies but the heads are just awful. Hopefully I can find some 3D prints
If you do let me know cause I'd be curious to see what's out there
What’s bad about the heads
The sculpt looks greats
Raphael had a stroke
🤣
