NECA 1/4 Scale TMNT 1990's Turtles

[The Mike]

I have received both Donnie and Raph from EE. I ordered them both on December 29th, 2016.

I ordered both from EE around the same time. Got Raph but never got Donnie. It's still "backordered" in my account on their site.

Leonardo is on May on Neca ebay?

Neca confirmed on FB that Leo will be in their store in Late May. (Last week of May)

I think NECA will ship more Donnies when they release Leo. I imagine EE has them on order for their customers.

Anyone come up with a fix for Raph's loose torso? I'm thinking about boiling some water and pouring it in there to see if I can pop him apart...

Can he still hold a pose or does he slouch forward?

Still considering to order 2 of each.
Just feel like it's worth having an extra set.

If they did, it would likely be as a DVD/BR promotion, Playmates probably has the license for the 7" scale. NECA tends to use the 18" scale for licenses like DC and Marvel where they want to do figures and that's the only scale they can get a license for.

It's gonna be an con release you can count on thst.

That sucks too. That's why it's smart to grab these.

He was pretty loose and slouched quite a bit. I ended up soaking him in boiling water and he popped apart pretty easily. I tried a few things to stiffen the joint but ended up wrapping a rubber o-ring around the shaft of the barbell joint. It provided enough friction to keep Raph from slouching and help him hold poses.

Any idea when BBTS will be getting their next batch of Raphael?

Tons of awesome accessories out there being made for these guys.

So far I've seen a

replica VHS cover of the original movie
straw hat for Donnie
Dominos pizza box
turtle wax bottle
coat/hat for Raph

anyone seen anything else?

A little more detail on the Raphael torso joint fix: I popped his head off and soaked him belly down for a minute in a pan of boiled water. The torso joint popped apart quite easily. The joint is a simple barbell/socket arrangement. After a couple of failed attempts to tighten things up, I ended up using a large black rubber o-ring that I wrapped around the barbell shaft 3 times. I reheated the socket for snapping the barbell back in by spooning some boiling water into it and waiting about 20 seconds. At that point I dumped the water out and snapped it back together. Raph is now as tight as his turtle brother, Donnie! Los Tortuga Hermanos!

Re did the figure stand I made with an leg grabber. I don't trust the hot toys crotch grabber.

Mid to late June. Necas ebay will get more Raphs before BBTS.

I'm too afraid to boil my turtle... I'm pretty sure I'd ruin him.
[emoji217] Makes me think of turtle soup!

Nah. Lots of ppl do it to loosen the stiff joints. I did it with my elder Predator.
