Loving the line. Hating that I never find them at retail and that since it's a third party deal, they aren't even available for online order through Target.com. I don't own one set and would have bought them all if I had the chance. And I refuse to pay Ebay/Second market prices. These are pricey enough as is.
So glad they are re-releasing the turtles. I missed out on Ralph and Mike during the first round. Hopefully they're packed together. Dont mind them in the lighter shade since they were both the lighter ones out of the 4. That Metalhead looks amazing! Krang holding the Blueprint for his Android body... a possible tease?? ??.
Oh God I'm getting flashbacks from that TMNT movie by Imagi. I loved watching that as a kid!

I never even dared hope we'd get an animated Casey! Add Metalhead and the robots . . . that's it, I take back every bad thing I ever said about Neca.
I would've preferred a smiling expression but I honestly don't have any problems with April, that is until the final product comes out. I hope it's not a case of "It doesn't look like the prototype" as that happened with Linn Kurosawa which final product looks awful. Hoping April's retail release looks better.

I think it's her expression. I would've preferred a smiling face but everything else is good.

I need that Leatherhead to happen!

Also, is it me, or are those Turtles lighter than the original release? Maybe a running change?
According to the Pixel Dan SDCC Neca interview, the lighter Turtles are going to be released in Series 2 in 2 2-packs and are based on the coloring of the Turtles from the shows original style guide. They'll also include some new accessories. The Neca guy also mentioned a crap-load of Foot Soldiers of all types: battle damaged, security (Foot Soldiers in police hats), and an "Ultimate Foot Soldier" (a single Food Soldier packed with accessories and alternate heads including the "Alpha" head).
Looks like it's gonna be a big year for the Turtles.

These looks great, and since I had only been able to found one of the original two-packs, I really hope I have better luck with these guys.
I also love the little tidbits like the little killer pizza monster, the unmutated Slash and his palm tree, and Pigeon Pete.
