NECA 1/4 Scale TMNT 1990's Turtles

[guyver1]

I got a weird email from something called UPS quantum view saying I'm getting a package tomorrow and thought it was bogus or I got hacked.

I'm guessing based on this thread that it's probably the turtles.

Damn you guys get UPS in a day delivered..I guess NY

Yea. I thought they were shipping from Cali for some reason. But it's hillside! If it were so it would be Thursday delivery for me.

It always says that it's from NJ. But once tracking starts rolling it will say California.

No notices yet..tomorrow maybe which means I have to wait almost a whole week o receive it

Oh well..at least it’s paid off, so that part I don’t have to worry about

UPS usually only takes 3-4 days.

It might just be the way you have them posed, but Mikey looks shorter than the others. If that's the case I'll be stoked. The 1/4 scale version has him the same height as the others which kind of looks weird.

It's the way I posed them, it bugs the **** out of me that Mikey is the same height but at the price point you really can't complain, they're amazing

I'm going to copy paste this from my instagram, took some shots of the spare hands that come with them and how they can be used to enhance the poses:

For Mikey I’m using two different hands, one of them you have to fold and twist the nunchaku in his hand for him to get a light grip on them, the other is a loose hand but pressed against his leg to keep the nunchaku in place. For Leonardo the left hand is the closed fist that’s already on there that holds the sword at a 90 degree angle, but his right is an open palm that the sword can rest in comfortable and gives a nice downwards angle, or you can point it straight. The finger pointing hands are perfect for Raphael, this is my favourite way to pose the sai, with the handle pointing outward and the tip towards the elbow, but alternatively you can have the tip pointing straight out as well. I haven’t explored the hands with Donatello yet as I’m happy with how his staff is positioned, though I do wish he had a spot on his belt to hold the staff

Don’t know if true but supposedly the Chinese KO’s are already being made (or they overproduced official ones for chinese market).
Again not 100% certain as this could just be a pic of the originals and a chinese seller is trying to rip people off but time will tell. No doubt wonky eyes, weak joints and sloppy paintwork will easily seperate the real from the fake but just a heads up in case you see some being sold at a reasonable price and seems too good to be true....
(The person posting said they over produced these in Asia but I’m sceptical)

you mean fake will have normal eyes, good joints and nice paintwork, unlike "real" directly from Neca?

I still haven't gotten a shipping notification, so your post gives me hope!

However, you left out the last three words of their Instagram post (or maybe they edited the post since you posted here?)- the last sentence actually reads "We will be sending out more e-mails tomorrow, into next week!" So apparently they won't be getting them all out today, even!

Of course I can wait a bit longer for some toys to be delivered, but I am surprised- I was lucky enough to order a Turtles set on the first day, so I hoped that my set would be shipped out at the start of the process, assuming they're shipping them out in the order in which the orders were received!

Oh brother what’s going on with the new posts page..somebody has spammed it again

Wonky eyes are Neca's trademark

Still says labeled created for mine so no delivery today.

 

[guyver1]

Got my shipping ..and shipped USPS as well

Interesting it didn’t ship from NJ..did anyone get a different location as well

 

[Yodasodabo]

Yep, mine was estimated to be delivered today but tracking still only says label created... what a tease. Unfortunately UPS is usually a lot more reliable so I trust their tracking unlike USPS which prob wouldn’t even update till it’s delivered.
