The articulation would be so much better if they gave them some ab crunch / ball joint waist like what NECA has been doing with their Last Ronin figures.
This looks great and is a great step forward for Super7. I remember a lot of folks being almost ready to dump Super7 altogether. My one main criticism is that the 3 faces for each turtle are all very similar and almost redundant. I don't need 3 angry faces for Ralph. I need an angry/battle face, cocky aggressive face and maybe a remorseful/contemplative face. Mikey needs to have a serous battle face, his cowabunga celebratory face, and a funny smirky smile. Donna should have one that looks like he's doing calculations, a funner smiling face and again a battle face. Leo a battle face, a confident face and then maybe meditation face. These guys aint one dimensional characters afterall.
The extra heads should be on Ralph should be a happy face or smile. On Mikey should be a serious headsculpt and Donatello more angrier with teeth/open mouth..i'm definitive gonna preorder the 4.
I hope they reveal the Shredder next, I love the Utrom Shredder, he is my favorite incarnation, wouldn't mind seen, April, Casey, Splinter, and Hun down the road.
OG turtle fan here been a collector since the first season when I was 11 got me a paper route lived in Escondido California with my first paycheck was across the street from where my apartments were bought all the turtles was splinter and shredder been hooked ever since the cartoon was amazing and the black and white comic was awesome as well so violent for the times LOL as I wore my ninja shoes Cayman black or white with tan bottoms all the sixth graders had them lol this is an awesome set to going to have to get them
Hatter, happy to hear you made print. Well deserved and check one off the bucket list 😁. These turtle boys look good. 'be honest I got my last bout of sickness treated by the 5-points Mezco Tmnt set. I also picked up the Neca mirage 'wanderer as well. Happy Thursday ✌️
Preordered these guys immediately 😂 I’m excited for a super7 figure again the way I was prior to the playmates turtles release. Also, Pixel Dan finally saw the light, so that is nice 😂
I think Super7 needs to put out a video that shows these actually being moved and posed. Those joints could be really good, but I can’t tell which they remind me more of. If the joints are like the Xesray Red Rhino, they will be awesome. If they are like BST AXN (which that crouching pose Raph is in isn’t filling me with confidence), then these are a pass. $55 is also a big ask as they are really light on extras. I don’t need 80 sets of hands, but couldn’t there have been something these could have had? I am not familiar with the 2003 turtle line or cartoon. I want these to be good. I am happy for everybody that was in from the get go. I just need to see some movement out of these before I plunk down a preorder.
I'm a 2k3 TMNT fan but I am not very happy about this release. The figures look great but did they really cut all the accessories for the articulation just because they had to engineer one new body? Like these don't feel like $55 Ultimate figures anymore especially with the heads from the opening credits being held hostage by S7's store. Like why doesn't Leo have the Tengu Sword and gloved hand? Donnie could have his Kirby gauntlet or some of the underground crystals, Mikey could have a pizza or Klunk, and I'm not even going to lie I don't know many smaller accessories Raph could come with minus his motorcycle helmet but maybe some weights? S7 just keeps cutting and it's starting to not feel great anymore.
_"Stepping up their game"_ w/ like 20yr old out-date articulation. They're NINJAS! The Turtles are Acrobats like Nightwing & DD, whose figures would get laughed out the room- if they didn't have abb crunch & torso swivel. So why don't these over-priced _Playmates_ looking turtles,,,, its 2024 people. I don't get it ??
@@floorboss Most TMNT figures I have don't have ab crunches so I don't see it as a necessity. I think the only ones that do are the 2012 Revoltech ones, and that fit because those were done in the style of that show
when I get in the film industry I will make Flip-Or a canon MOTU Character in my MOTU show ^v^ also OMG THE FIGURES ARE SO FUCKING GOOD BUT THERE'S WAY TOO MUCH THEY'RE MISSING OML
I'm torn on these ones. 2003 was my favorite version of the turtles. I just watched the entire series last month, so they look a bit off to me. Some folks have mentioned the fact that they were slimmer and have longer legs, and that definitely is true. Also the shoulders look a bit pointy, though I have seen a few stills with the pointy shoulders, but they don't look great. Also I'm not thrilled that they cut down on the accessories to make up for the added articulation. I get that added articulation means increased cost, and I end up throwing most of them into my accessory bins anyway, but these figures were drastically overpriced to begin with, when you compare them to other lines like NECA that offer fully painted figures, with a comparable amount of accessories, for less. After the massive clearance sales last year, the last thing Super7 needs to be doing is giving people the impression that they're providing less value.
I so badly hope I have to pay for a giant hun figure. The best part is that a lot of the neca Mirage figures will fit in the storyline since a lot of the 2003 series are in line with the comics.
Im happy for all the 2003 fans! I, for one, needed more of the original line. I understand that Playmates wasn't cooperating. We needed Wyrm, Hot Spot, Groundchuck and Dirtbag. Maybe even Shoate and Pizzaface.
Well, remember, he didn’t flat out refuse. That was Fwoosh. Like they literally said that they won’t do it, but I’ll even forgive them if they wanted to jump on the flip or train. I am magnanimous!!
These are dope and i immediately preordered them as i do all super 7 tmnt. One wish tho and this extends to all companies that make tmnt figs. It’s ok to give Raph a smiling or smirking of happy look. That’s especially true when you give him 3 different head sculpts. Raph is not ALWAYS mad, just most of the time. It’d be fun to get a raph laughing at mikeys jokes look.
Since the bonus pack head sculpts are similar for leo and raph, honestly, it would have been dope to have their vehicles replace the heads in the accessory pack. Scooter, skateboard, roller skates, and bike like in the intro omg🔥🔥🔥
I'm definitely getting this. Ive never seen any issues with SUPER7. I've always been happy with my figures. The articulation is limited but they seem to be super robust. Mcfarlane, MAFEX, even MEZCO, Those copanies have ridiculous prices for their chronic QC figures. Big UPS to SUPER7 for moving forward. These look amazing. Can't wait to mess around with their new articulation.
I've heard they sometimes have QC issues but I'm hoping the best for these, I think most companies know fans have been asking for 2003 love for years now and it's finally coming
Can’t personally can’t help but be bummed out S7 dropped the ball and didn’t get around to making ultimate versions of Wyrm, Antrax, Hothead, Groundchuck, Pizzaface, Fugitoid, Monty Moose, Panda Khan, Chrome Dome, Shogun Shotae and Irma when they were doing the playmates line. That’s the ultimate FAIL for Super7 I personally would’ve taken any of these over more versions of the turtles.
What is up with the obvious lack of accessories??? Super 7 is falling off from what was offered in their previous TMNT waves. That first TMNT wave they did set the bar... Hard to get excited by anything Super 7 puts out now
Guess it’s time to pack up my Super 7s TMNT was all I was buying from them..The 4 OG turtles probably my favorite out of all the stuff I have..It’s cool people who like 2003 or that was their turtles can get a version they love as much as I like the OGs but I’d of taken more playmate versions with same articulation..I know it’s not Super 7 fault they can’t do them..I see no point in buy the remaining Ratking,Robo Bebop or Triceraton when that era is over and it’s 2003,trash can hat Leo,Ninja April and other made up versions.
I never watched the 2003 cartoon. Other than when it came out, I saw a few episodes, and since Shredder wasn't the main bad guy, I passed. Though I was kind of old for it anyways by then. I do want to check out the cartoon one day. I have no interest in this Super 7 version of the figures. Though I like their 1987 line.
Excited for the future of super7 if they stick with double joints. That said, I'm not into stylized musculature on figures, but they look good food for what they are.
Wow, crazy expensive for this era! You can still find the originals for super cheap. Definitely not a buy for me since I'm an 80s kid and don't have a strong connection to this era.
I’m pumped for these guys. Went ahead and preordered from BBTS. I have a Super7 The Worst figure and he’s a little rough. Also does Super7 charge for a preorder right away or when they ship? I don’t need the extra heads but they’d be nice.
These look okay, but I want to see a real production figure first; and I just don’t trust the double joints. I’m hoping these end up being fantastic, I’m just not willing to pre-order them right now.
I'm surprised Mafex hasn't done any TMNT. Shf did some they ok pretty nice figures but they stop the line. I wonder if they gonna go back to it just like shf did with the street fighter line.
So glad we are getting these 2003 turtles. I’ve been upset with zNeca for ages since they decided not to focus on these iterations but now the joke is on them because Super7 clearly has every intention of knocking these out of the park and taking my money. If they are as good as the Godzilla figures then I’ll be set for life. Might even start selling off some of my x, y and z listers from the neca 87 collection
Got my order in for just Raph. Gotta see what they’re like before getting all 4. Also, it said estimated delivery was next Tuesday. Was I seeing that right? That’s kinda crazy
Looks like they don't have ab crunch or waist movement which is a shame as other companies have been able to add those joints, but I guess double jointed knees and elbows broke the bank. 😅Still a nice looking set though.
