    5:14 The manhole cover isn't unique to this set, it comes with the Figuarts Leonardo. Granted, it's a slightly different & inferior sculpt, but they stole every single aspect from the Figuarts releases.

    Always happy to hear a critical review on an action figure. I don't own these or think they're completely awful but comparing these to other collector market tmnt figures due to the drastic lack of knee bend and gummy weapons they definitley could be labeled as the worst for sure.

    I actually got these on a lot cheap a few weeks ago, not realizing how bad they were. I have no idea what they were thinking with the articulated shell and replacing the heads is horrible.
    Though sadly, not the only Turtle line I have problems with.

    So I'm a major TMNT fan/collector since I was 7 when the original cartoon came out. I've had multiple chances to pick a set up for about $5, and passed each time. Yeah, they're all not even worth five dollars. Even though I love getting every iteration of the Turtles, these aren't acceptable even if they were given away. They're an oddity, a sideshow curiosity. An abomination to show spectators on why you should steer clear of these "things."

  • @luisg.407
    @luisg.407 2 роки тому +11

    They're obviously not NECA's outstanding version of TMNT, but those are expensive as hell now and they're still one wrong move from breaking off. Because.....NECA.
    What did you really expect for an $18 price point? For that price, these are fine. It's not like you're gonna go outside on your porch or in the dirt and play with them. They're far better looking than the vintage figures.
    These look like the TMNT Arcade versions. Stand them on your shelf and these are more than acceptable if you don't wanna break out more than $100 for breakable faulty NECA figures.

    • @wumpus976
      @wumpus976 Рік тому

      If you want good Turtles figures, I’d go with NECA.
      They’ve done ones for the 1987 cartoon, 1990 movie, and even the original 1984 comics.
      Though fair warning, if you want the 84 ones, your best option is to buy the bootleg ones, as they’re comparable in quality and are at a fraction of the price, due to the fact that NECA stopped producing them a decade ago.

  • @mitchfletcher2386
    @mitchfletcher2386 2 роки тому +3

    I considered buying these since I wanted a set of affordable Fred Wolf TMNT figures. Thanks to this review, I'll rule them out unless I find any better recommendations.

  • @pmgerard
    @pmgerard Рік тому +2

    I mean, they did do an original Bebop, Rocksteady, Shredder, Foot Soldier, Krang, and Casey Jones. They forgivably redecoed the Foot Soldier into all of the arcade variants. They unforgivably redecoed the Turtles THREE TIMES into Mirage variants without adjusting the heads or removing the sculpted letters from the belts. On the other hand, they did a halfway decent job retooling toon Shredder and Foot Soldier into 4 distinct Mirage Foot Clan figures. This is a line of cheap, pointless shortcuts but I actually think they're doing enough stuff right that I could see the line improving.
    They'll soon be doing multiple TMNT retools and redecos. Fred Wolf cartoon looks, with no irises for some reason. Pixelated 8 bit decos that use a surprising amount of paint and actually cover the joints.
    And then there's Street Style, which looks legitimately decent. These Turtles are decoed exactly like the Fred Wolf toon, wear jackets (distinctly painted for each turtle), tennis shoes, and have unique accessories like Mikey's 3D glasses. These look kind of like a cross between NECA and screwball Playmates variants. I think the new jacketed arms will get better range.
    In fact, all of the newer figures that aren't actual Ninja Turtles get MUCH better articulation than the TMNT themselves. At the expense of very ugly joint/articulation cuts. But McFarlane does ugly joint cuts all the time too.
    So I'd say: try the non-TMNT if you like, which are much more original and don't copy Figuarts figures. The endless TMNT repaints don't fix the issues with the Turtles. But the Street Style Turtles coming out soon may be the line's first good turtles.

    I have Leonardo, it's got loose joints but I have no problem posing him. Repainted his Katanas and soon will repaint the whole body and head a darker green. I don't play around with figure, but have him on my shelf, he looks great, most likely will buy the others. For the price point they're better than paying the ridiculous amount people are asking online. I grew up in the 90's playing the TMNT games on NES and watching the animated series so I like them.

    Completely ignore the price and scale, sure its the worst. Name a other collector series of generally poseable figures that fits with the original line for the price. Have fun with that $150+ turtles neca set and the $500 turtle van, though

    • @Lio_Convoy
      @Lio_Convoy  2 роки тому +2

      1. The price is listed in this video, and the scale is demonstrated.
      2. Compared to other toy lines around the same cost, they’re grossly inferior in every way.
      3. These do NOT fit the original line.
      4. I never paid $500 for a van, and the $150 neca set comes with a lot more stuff and is a higher quality than this joke of a line.
      I’m sorry that an objective review rustled your jimmies so much.

    • @LordGrim1313
      @LordGrim1313 2 роки тому +9

      @@Lio_Convoy 1. Listed or not clearly not taken into consideration.
      2. Not talking about another toyline. This is ninja turtles, not power rangers or he man. You want turtles these are the only budget choices with articulation.
      3. They do fit in vehicle from the original line, like the original rereleased party wagon at $50 for example...
      4. Don't care if you didn't buy it, again using price as an example. If you don't have a lot of disposable income but still want to collect something, this is your only option.
      Your video is as far from objective as it gets when price and availability are no longer issues.

    • @Lio_Convoy
      @Lio_Convoy  2 роки тому +2

      1. It was taken into consideration. It’s why I compared it to something close to it.
      2. The reissue of the Classics TMNT are $35 for a two pack. They have better articulation and are a higher quality than these. Your complaint is null and void, and therefor rejected.
      3. You said “original line”. Not “original vehicles”. And even then, a lot of modern things do; that’s not a “win”.
      4. If you don’t have a lot of disposable income, and want TMNT figures that aren’t hot garbage, for for the Classics two packs. It’s that simple. Broken down, they’re actually CHEAPER than the BST figures.
      The review is objective. Everything you’re crying about what taken into account. I just don’t consider it to be an excuse for how bad these are.

    • @LordGrim1313
      @LordGrim1313 2 роки тому

      @@Lio_Convoy This is the most autistic argument I've seen outside twitter.
      1. No you didn't. You claim they are the worst but there is nothing else in their scale and price range to compare them to. They are the wost of nothing.
      2. The classics packs are discontinued and are of a completely different 7" scale, they dont work with the original figures or vehicles and will not be continued to include any new figures or vehicles.
      3. Doesn't matter, the argument is the same. You want a collectors line at 7" you have to spend $50/figure and $500 per vehicle. This is a $20 figure compatible with the old line.
      4. Repeating yourself because you don't have a point. Again classics are discontinued. It's fine if those are the only four figures you want, and you don't mind Shredder being smaller than everyone, it's fine but that's very exclusive.
      You just want the four turtles and don't care about scale or vehicles you have a point, but if you want a line to collect, foot soldiers to troop build, vehicles, other characters, it's this or the originals. Everything else is going to be marked up significantly in price.

Same manufacturing different turtles.... Like it feels like these are the Dragonball star to the figuarts dbz you get me? Cool toys yet not cool enough to be collectables

    These are absolute trash and shouldn't exist at all. It's even more infuriating that the company has the audacity to name their line with the "best" in articulation, features, etc and these figures break apart at the slightest touch, features the worst paint applications, and not a single figure in their BST AXN lines scale properly. What do I mean by that? Aang from Avatar is the same height as Zuko from the same figure line and it looks insanely goofy.
    I just want BST AXN to go belly up so they can never peddle this garbage to anyone.

    U can custom paint them to the green neca cartoons ones and if u disassemble the shells and trim sand u have torso crunch... But yes they made them more teenagerish less buffy but they scale in size compared to some oversized super 7 ones...
