Me to myself: "I do not need the pizza club turtles because I have the turtles in disguise. I do not need the pizza club turtles because I have the turtles in disguise. I do not need the pizza club turtles because I have the turtles in disguise." Me *Goes to Target
Man, if you actually find these in a Target, you live in one hell of a beautiful reality. Pretty much the newest NECA stuff at my Target is the Colossal Napoleon figure, and one of the Rocksteady & Bebop gang packs.
You don't need them, they are a waste of money. Stick to one set, otherwise you'll end up selling them like most Americans, who believe they need to collect everything.
These are awesome, but I already have the light green turtles and the turtles in disguise. I’m not in a financial position to drop another 150 bucks on these as much as I’d want to hahahaha I did pick up the punk rock turtles though
Thanks for all the videos comparing all the new Haulathon drops to previous versions of the NECA Turtles - it’s “edu-tainment” at its finest Strong Work, Broski 💪🏾
Awesome review. I’m new to this adventure and was able to find all 4 brothers. I even found The-adventures Of Samurai Usagi just in time for Easter. lol…. What have I gotten myself into??
Have you decided if you’re going to get Donnie’s lab? I am am 90% sure I’m going to grab this one. I just want a play set and I’m too lazy to build my own. Plus I’ve already got that portal.
Got all the 4 bros, I’m only concerned about the dark green of them, in my memories on cartoon I think it’s a lighter green. But I need to see it on hands, there’s some videos that they look to dark on green. Does this green matches with the original 2pack on the past?
I do want these also but I’m holding off on them because there’s so much stuff already. I grabbed the 4pk and I got the rerelease of the OG Bebop and Rocksteady and Usagi. If these hang around a couple more weeks I’ll grab them.
8:03 The colours on the TiD set is more accurate to the cartoon. I mean I know the scheme changed here and there, but overall, the darker green skin and more vibrant shell on these aren't how they typically looked on the show. I wish they kept the front shell the same colour as the originals, and lightened up the skin tone. That would've definitely been the more accurate way to go...plus some new expressions, where we don't have to spend $210+ on the Punk set & samurai/space 2-pack.
Awesome review as always! Looking forward to Leo and Raph. Are we confident on these releasing via Haulathon for international buyers? I'm new in the line and will have to collect these 4 but we dont get them in Australia even though we have Target :\
All we can do is guess right now. Historically, this is the case as Haulathon has its own website through costumes .com which seems to be a NECA owned site
What if your only version of the turtles is the very light cartoon green from the previous 4-pack? Those were only briefly mentioned in the review. I am debating getting these new VHS style figures because the color differences are so pronounced & I do in fact love the accessories. Your opinion might help.
Only briefly mentioned in the review because I don't have them and they are from the promotional images of the Turtles, not the show. So I classify them as two totally different versions for different use.
It's nice they are reissuing this so people can get into the line. I'd rather have more hands and faces, but the spinning bo is wicked cool. Pretty looking figures, but the line is too deep for me. I don't want to even start collecting it.
It's still hard to get these tmnt regardless of having a set already, I prefer paying necas expensive shipping fee and KNOWING I will get my figures instead of burning gas going to multiple targets and finding NOTHING ($60 in gas that could of gone to shipping F my tmnt collection life
@NostalgiaUnboxed For a second, I was flipping out that I lost something when I finally got my hands on these figures, but thanks for clearing things up.
Kinda upsetting lack of second happy head. Old turtles were too hard and too expensive to get so I will finally try and get my hands on cartoon turtles.sucks there pricey but what can you do. Well see..target exclusive yay
I’m content sticking with the disguise set, I like the more olive color in them better. But if they gave these guys the colors from the old Playmates toys (comic according to Turtles in Time), I’d be down for that.
Haulathon, for international buyers, uses that site. Which I’m pretty sure is owned by NECA. There’s always LOADS of NECA stuff on there and sometimes old items come back
@NostalgiaUnboxed So the last ninja turtle four pack I saw at my local target was 159.99. I was just making a joke at how the pricing of some of the products does not make sense. That 160 price tag was the reason I didn't take the 4 turtles home that day.
Are all East Coast Targets absolutely poop? Or.. just the ones in PA? ……. Or just mine? Also, the Bo staff spinny thing is great but looking at it weirds my eyes out lol. PS: Avocados didn’t exist during this time. C’mon Neca! lol
When they do make it to the shelf it’s low quantities, it seems. One of each and gone before we get there. Haha. This is thanks to a local collector searching their area while I searched mine
@@NostalgiaUnboxed okay, but (if you don’t mind) I could use your help so, on EBay I found a matte Turtles in Disguise and got it cus it’s rare to find but the Joints in all the turtles are stiff and I already tried hot water if I did it right and didn’t work, do you have a way of loosening the joints up for posing?
Yayyyy!!! Donatello wins! He is the best Turtle, after-all. I really like the colors on these better than the olive on the TiD. However i still actually prefer those Light-green Style Guide colors because its so bright & cartoony. I'm just glad the world of TMNT fans now have a better chance at making their dreams cum-tru! = -D
This is clearly aimed at people like me who are late in the TMNT game and want the turtles but don’t wanna pay scalper price for the other set (Comic-Con 4 pack, 2 packs, TiF, etc) … as much as I will like them (cos I don’t have any others) I have to say objectively, it’s a somewhat average offering, limited hands, random accessories, no second head or expression option, etc… side note, I’m getting the baby turtles accessory pack so I’ll hit you up for the tiny vhs sleeves 👍🏽
If you think you’ll buy other versions of the turtles (space adventure and samurai adventure) then these will be perfect. You’ll eventually have a lot of expressions and some that are new.
@@NostalgiaUnboxed yeah I’m still on the fence on those. On the one hand they mean nothing to me but on the other they look cool as hell and I agree with you on the plus of having extra expressions. That said £75 for expressions is a tough pill to swallow
I'd grab this one first, and all of the rest too. IF I ever saw them in the wild which apparently will never happen. Apparently the San Fernando Valley Targets never stock any of this. Been to 6 Targets out here. Have the MATTE Turtles in Disguise but REALLY WANT the pizza dough head, spinning bow, and Gorgonzola. Would prob resell all the bodies after vulturing the accessories. 😂😂😢
U forgot to put the mean face on Donatello from the punk turtles that’s what I’ve been wanting too see shoot me a PM if u decide to do this I would love to see see the angry mouth on Donatello pls thanks man
I prefer the matte finish but do not like that cell shading has been abandoned. So many companies fumble with the cell shading of characters but NECA happened to do it right. Now they stop? Obviously a way for NECA to save $ - leave off some paint. But is this the new trend for the series? There was no cell shading on the turtle van either which was also disappointing. For me the cell shading is part of the charm of the NECA TMNT cartoon series.
These new turtles are really nice with the matte finish but not being able to change expressions is a downer👎 If someone gave me a choice between the TID set or all four of these new pizza club turtles , id have to go with TID, just for the fact that id be able to capture emotions with the different face accessories opposed to being stuck in one emotion with the pizza club turtles,… however… If they come out with a NEW set of turtles that have this matte finish and brighter shell color with☝️the different face emotion options, that would probably be the best set of all.
Great review. Sadly a lot of people that have the previous iterations are also getting these (based of some forums I've been on). Completionists I guess. Makes sense Donatello is upset if all he does is machines. Hehehehehe stupid!
Agreed that it's not a cash grab, though I will say the price sucks. NECA definitely has a "Turtle Tax" since the $150 four-packs aren't a great value to begin with and they clearly priced these individual releases as that divided by four (or close to it - congrats on saving two bucks). The lack of both eye options, at the bare minimum, is lame. This would have also been a great time to add double-jointed elbows, but I guess I should be happy they didn't because then I'd probably be buying these new ones. I do have a matte set of Turtles in Disguise, and comparing them to the Punk Turtles, the shade of green is still different. It also looks like the matte is far more consistent on these new ones as even my matte set has parts of the body that shine and parts that don't. Those who are getting these are almost certainly getting the best looking set of turtles NECA has made for this line, but the lack of display options for the heads is a killer. Made especially so since it looks like Space Adventure Donatello comes with angry eyes too.
Collecting this line has really gotten me questioning my sanity. I have the TID turtles and I am getting these new ones for the new look and accessories. I may not be sane anymore but at least I have some cool turtles 🤣
The bow staff is the thing I ALWAYS wanted
I hope you can grab one
It's the only thing out of all these releases that interests me.
Strongly agree

“Of course you gotta collect all four turtles if you can’t” and with said I agree. I plan on buying them all! Great review keep up the good job!
Thank you
you should be at 1 mill subs. your personality is amazing
Thank you!
its a super duper niche channel so, it will take some time.. but i agree. EVERYONE NEEDS TMNT IN THERE LIVES!!!
These are awesome, but I already have the light green turtles and the turtles in disguise. I’m not in a financial position to drop another 150 bucks on these as much as I’d want to hahahaha I did pick up the punk rock turtles though
Keep what you got
Pretending most people have the option to buy these at retail is crazy. Especially since pizza club isn't even officially released yet.
Nobody is pretending. If you’re buying on eBay you’re a fool. Especially once these show up online
So glad Donatello won this comparison 👏🏻
It was close!
It would be dope if NECA made 2003 Turtles
Absolutely
Or 2012, I just loved that version

I bought it lol
6:40 this easily one of the best poses you ever done with a figure
well thank you
Got all the 4 bros, I’m only concerned about the dark green of them, in my memories on cartoon I think it’s a lighter green. But I need to see it on hands, there’s some videos that they look to dark on green. Does this green matches with the original 2pack on the past?
@@diegoabreu9819 it is still different when compared to the original
yes, the can put the open Roadkill Rodney head on the actual figure. So now, we can give them another look.
I love it. Hopefully I can grab one
I must have the spinning bow staff. It’s a necessity to me. That’s pretty much it. Having another Donnie isn’t a bad thing.
Haha, it's a great item, just make sure you get the hand with it if you buy it from someone
When did they start releasing these in stores? Has haulathon started already?
In store started Friday. Online starts the 12th, but it's all a mess and random in store
@@NostalgiaUnboxed thanks. I've never got lucky in store. Guess I'll wait for online.
Your poses are always soooo freakin good, they always make me laugh haha, 🤙🤘
Thank you!
I do want these also but I’m holding off on them because there’s so much stuff already. I grabbed the 4pk and I got the rerelease of the OG Bebop and Rocksteady and Usagi. If these hang around a couple more weeks I’ll grab them.
Smart move
Worth it for the Bo Staff to me FOR SURE. That thing is sick.
It really is
Does anyone know if Super7 are still planning on releasing TMNT figures from the 2003 cartoon series?
Pretty sure
8:03 The colours on the TiD set is more accurate to the cartoon. I mean I know the scheme changed here and there, but overall, the darker green skin and more vibrant shell on these aren't how they typically looked on the show.

It’s a wild swap of colors, so I understand

Has anyone compared the Pizza Club turtles to the TIDG Matte finish? I've only seen the glossy side by side
I don’t know
mark my words: new accessory pack coming with head sculpts
And hands, please
@@NostalgiaUnboxed🙌
This is the only one I am tempted by and only for that bow staff effect. Hoping someone reverse engineers one and sells it on etsy or something.
I’m sure it will be available on its own from some sellers, but some customs would certainly make the price better. Maybe. Lol
Are these turtles identical to the other toon 4 pack that came out in 2022?
You mean what’s being compared to it in this video? I don’t know
Would that spinning Bo fit in any of the mirage Lawson hands?
Great question lol
I like to see Donnie smiling so this one's a big swing and a miss! Thanks buddy. Excited for your review of the Samurai/Spaceman pack!
Thank you!
It's nice they are reissuing this so people can get into the line.
I'd rather have more hands and faces, but the spinning bo is wicked cool.
Pretty looking figures, but the line is too deep for me. I don't want to even start collecting it.
A little self control to get only what you want is worth it for these
This is the only pizza club I’m missing! Hoping to grab him when they go online my target was wiped clean
I hope you can grab one
It's still hard to get these tmnt regardless of having a set already, I prefer paying necas expensive shipping fee and KNOWING I will get my figures instead of burning gas going to multiple targets and finding NOTHING ($60 in gas that could of gone to shipping F my tmnt collection life
We shouldn’t have to drive around, but they should be online around the 12th
Does that cardboard vhs tape case come with these figures because I didn't see it in my leo box
Negative. It’s something I’m going to be offering with some other goodies. I mention it a bit more in my Mikey review
@NostalgiaUnboxed
For a second, I was flipping out that I lost something when I finally got my hands on these figures, but thanks for clearing things up.
It looks like the bow staff is straight that is a big upgrade I kept wondering why it was not with the first figure
Certainly more solid. Mine always pops apart at the seam
WHY CANT I FIND THESE TURTLES
Not officially out yet
Gonna be REAL interesting when you get all four with their accessories laid out on a table next to the TID bros….
I'm leaning one direction so far
Kinda upsetting lack of second happy head. Old turtles were too hard and too expensive to get so I will finally try and get my hands on cartoon turtles.sucks there pricey but what can you do. Well see..target exclusive yay
Always tough
What turn table do you have??
Amazon something. 100 of the same thing with different brand names
@@NostalgiaUnboxedthank you!
Wonder how these colors match with the orginal sdcc 8 pack or the orignal 2 packs aka orignal first retail release of bros.
Me too
@@NostalgiaUnboxed maybe a see if hatter has them? See another collaborative video ; )
So are these turtles going to be available year round or is this another buy it when you see it or miss out?
Probably not all year, but that’s what they need to do
Alrighty then welp hopefully I'm able to grabem😢
I keep hearing about how hard it is to find Raphael and Donatello in this pizza club release. Is there any truth to this?
It’s all random for each person
Glad you found him!
Thanks to other local collectors
