TMNT (teenage mutant ninja turtles)

[ironwez20]

Found this super interesting. Bebop and rocksteady in 1990 concept figure form. Would have been a crazy movie if those two were in it. I think these look cool !

I missed out on the original. So, I'm glad they're do a reissue for the 35th anniversary. I'll definitely be picking these up.

Those concepts...are interesting...

Wish NECA would reissue spirit Splinter.

Missed the Lootcrate and don’t want to pay aftermarket prices.

Crazy how much that goes for. It’s a decent figure. Mine has been opened but is still in the box at the moment. I should put it on display somewhere but it doesn’t really fit in.

McFarlane Toys and Paramount Consumer Products Announce New Licensing Agreement for Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles​

McFarlane Toys, an industry leader in the collectibles category, proudly announces the landmark signing of a new licensing agreement with Paramount Consumer Products. This collaboration marks an exciting new chapter, as McFarlane Toys expands their comic collectibles with the iconic Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles brand.

The upcoming series will feature highly detailed 5-inch collectible figures, each crafted with meticulous attention to detail, designed to capture the unique essence and personality of the TMNT characters. These figures are fully articulated and come with an added bonus for collectors and fans alike – a re-printed classic comic book of an iconic Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles story from IDW Publishing.

The anticipated collection is set to launch in Fall 2025 and will be available online and through select retailers.

From Todd McFarlane, Founder and CEO of McFarlane Toys, “As a lifelong comic fanatic and professional, this partnership is something that is near and dear to my heart. I was there many decades ago when the very first issue of the TMNT comic came out for sale and have watched from a distance as this franchise has blown up into a full-scale phenomenon worldwide. To be able to join forces with the good folks at Paramount Consumer Products and bring some of the exciting figures from those original comics will set comic fandom on their heels. This is going to be fun for all of us!”

“We’re excited to partner with McFarlane Toys on a new line of collectible figures for Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles,” said Lourdes Arocho, SVP of Consumer Products & Experiences at Paramount. “These figures are crafted with exceptional detail, capturing the dynamic personalities of TMNT, and we can’t wait for fans to get a hold them.”

What are McFarlane gonna do that NECA haven't already done? A slightly different scale?

 

[Johnny Utah]

Todd and NECA have been redoing each other's stuff for years. Now Trick or Treat are redoing NECA with their horror line.

Their Cenobites look great but no major improvement over what was already perfectly done in 2003.

I'm guessing Playmates still has a "master" license?

This sounds like Paramount just carved out a little piece for McFarlane.

Is Mcfarlene going to do 1990 or just there own spin on tmnt?

Where the **** are my 1/6 90s Turtles

Where the **** are my 1/6 90s Turtles

1/6 90s is what I’ve been wanting for years - movie or animated.

Mondo is making 1:6 Turtles but that looks more like a hybrid of several eras like what they’ve been doing with MOTU and Thundercats.

crazy right? Like that has been proven to sell time and time again. We have freaking 1/6th Bay turtles for crying out loud. TWO VERSIONS! So whhere are the best turtles in Live action? Hot toys won't touch it. Threezero SHOULD do it but they are random so maybe one day when I'm like 48 we may get them but for now I am happy with the neca stuff we have becuase those are so good but we nned more 90s tmnt love.
The movie still holds up to this day and again no other turtle movie has been able to surpass it.

Yea wheever people get the license they do these kinda Hybrid versions that are a cross between comic, cartoon and a bit of 90s movie. Like those 1/6th turtles from long ago.

Just boggles my mind. 1/6 90s movie turtles would do NUMBERS. One mold for the bodies with a few paint changes here and there...simple weapons and spare hands...and four head sculpts. WTF is the hold up?

The movie is disregarded and disrespected tbh. No blu ray release. Nothing for the anniversary. No special edition. I think the powers that be view it as a movie that was forgotten and only holds nostalgic weight when in reality it was a damn fine film that holds up to this very day. I think neca may be the only company that saw value in it
