Sorry for the long post, but I just need to vent. Back in July, I ordered the Zombo Retro Cloth figure from The NECA Store's online flash sale. It took nearly a month to ship out. In that time, my life took an unexpected turn and a move was in my immediate future. I'd heard horror stories about...

Found them at Wal-Mart and picked up Eddie for $30 (overpriced, imo). Despite Bandai describing it as 6-inch scale, I think Eddie fits in quite well with the existing McFarlane figures. Just wish it came with a few accessories. With what these cost, including a guitar should have been a...

It's funny: it appears they did away with the unsightly double elbow joints for unmasked Casey Jones, yet they've introduced those far more hideous double knee joints on April (which is pointless articulation considering the skirt hinders leg movement). At first, I thought they might have...

Probably not necessary if the sunglasses aren't removable and are glued on to a duplicate of the same exact head sculpt (like the Terminator: Dark Fate figures). It appears that's what they're going with instead of an alternate head with a different expression. If the hair was re-sculpted to...

I know it saves NECA money, but it would have been nice if the sculpted hair on Pt. II Doc was a bit longer/straighter. They just reused the 50s Doc hairstyle that has a noticeable gap on the sides and back to accommodate the strap for the goggles (which isn't necessary for this release)...

It makes perfect sense, considering NECA bought Loot Crate about a year and a half ago. Getting figure collectors to pay extra for a few cheap mystery items they don't want is just more profit for them. So it's just like The NECA Store when they do their SDCC pre-orders?

I'm probably in for unmasked Casey as well, but I was just thinking how it would have been decent of NECA to throw in the Koteas head sculpt (as well as Splinter's slippers and extra hands from the 2-pack) into the upcoming movie accessory set. Would have been a nice gesture to show they weren't...

Sure, but Falk was telling folks on Twitter that no reissue was planned and they still had no likeness rights in place - even after Koteas implied it was a done deal.

Randy Falk just mentioned the movie Casey Jones reissue will be "better than before" (likely an Ultimate): https://twitter.com/NECA_TOYS/status/1364258737620459521 Elias Koteas confirmed back in July that he had agreed to the figure, despite the NECA Twitter feed insisting it was news to...

Do the NECA crates ever work with coupons? I found a ton of Loot Crate codes online, but even the valid ones don't take anything off the total. I also passed on Spirit of Splinter, mainly because he was a variant. I only slightly regret it, but certainly not enough to pay scalper prices. My...

The accessory set? The open pizza box is shown in the product photo: EDIT: Sorry, just realized you were probably referring to the cartoon turtles in disguise 4-pack that was just announced. I was posting about the 1990 movie figures.

The pizza box was the only remaining accessory that was exclusive to the SDCC pack, but it's now being included in the accessory set.

I seem to remember screenshots from the GameStop pre-order listings (the store computers, not the website) being posted here before SDCC 2018. So a wider release was likely already in place, NECA just kept it to themselves for obvious business reasons. They later backtracked by stating the...

Randy Falk mentioned on Twitter that Ultimate TMNT movie figures are coming to Wal-Mart this year: https://twitter.com/NECA_TOYS/status/1362403046395944962 I called this last summer when they announced the accessory set with the alternate turtle heads. I predicted some of the contents of that...

They have a lot of nerve, considering they're not only the seller but also the manufacturer of your defective product. Why should you lose out on shipping costs both ways with no figures to show for it? NECA would never get away with pulling this via their Amazon or eBay stores. It's...
