Nice, I haven't seen where to order this one! BTW, in the first comic where he confronts the turtles... and loses.. he tries to blow them up with a grenade. He gets knocked off the roof and an explosion happens... leaving nothing but a busted gauntlet left behind.... hence the accessory :)
It's a thermite grenade.... Spoilers It blows him up at the end of the first comic. Shredder is dead at the end of the first issue. The other gauntlet is what's left of him.
@@NostalgiaUnboxed It gets much crazier after the FOUR clones (the three that are out, plus a fourth 'successful attempt). Don't want to spoil it, but if they carry on making these, there's one figure I'm really hoping they do based on the Shredder family.
Another great review Jonathan! Your honesty is what makes your reviews brilliant, we all know you love Neca but you still give your honest opion how you feel regarding the figure you are reviewing.Super awesome! No sugar coating things.
It's a dated 2016 figure sculpt repainted into a scene specific release. It does what it set out to do nothing more nothing less. I'm sure any of the 33 Accessories included with the Foot Soldier will work just fine with Shredder.
Haven't finished the video, but I see from your comment Johnathan went into the same rant as I'm going on about...no freakin' weapons! I don't have them blue Foot Soldiers to give a weapon to Shredder...so guess they'll be gettin' a Fugatoid blaster 🫤. I know it's all about being a panel specific figure, but it would've been nice for NECA to throw in their bow, or a sword...like somethin'. And NECA is known for throwing in accessories not specific to the character. It's just such a light figure (especially w/being the first Mirage Shredder for a lot of us); but guess they can't all be loaded with a bazillion accessories.
I don't know why they go with the idw color classics instead of the first graphic novel and cover art colors, and I wish they added articulation for the bladed shoulder pad and the shoulders.
Yeah, it's weird when NECA pulls a hasbro. If they don't wanna break up the sculpt with a ball jointed diaphragm, they could ball joint the hell outta the waist; then you'd get _something._
😂😂😂 LEGENDARY! I almost ripped the damn gauntlet off 🤣🤣 thankfullly the red one has COOL weapons that I actually used for this! Entertaining as hell as always
That is so not how i imagined Shredder would look unmasked. i somehow thought he was a much older man. Possibly mutated. i can totally see Howie Mandel, circa 1990.
According to some comments this is issue #1 and he dies at the end of it. Lol. So I think there are some Shredder’s that match what you’re thinking later on
I love how you committed to barely reading anything on the box before saying reading is for losers. I thought I was gonna catch you, but you're a slippery snake. 🐍🤣
Getting the other mirage shredders are hard to come by because neca doesn't resale sdcc exclusive let alone mirage tmnt figures in store shelves like they oversaturate the collector toy isle market with making everybody in the 87 tmnt cartoon and 90s movies figures
So for a good comic Shredder, I suggest the IDW comics. For something more interesting, I suggest both the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers x Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles & Mighty Morphin Power Rangers x Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II crossovers by Boom Studios. In the first, Tommy, the Green Ranger, went undercover to try to save one of his buddies who was lured into the life of a Foot Soldier. Stuff goes down, turns out his boy tricked him, Tommy's found out and morphs...only for Shredder to be like "Oh, I knew who you were all along, boy", and then promptly beats his ass and tests out a new weapon that demorphs Tommy by severing his connection to the Morphin Grid. He then steals Tommy's Power Morpher (and thus the Dragon Power Coin), and uses it *TO BECOME THE GREEN RANGER HIMSELF!!* He later used his new weapon on the other Rangers, too. It's wild...
I don't like this figure as I don't care for battle damaged toys, but this may be the only Mirage Shredder NECA will be selling for quite some time, so I might pick him up to at least have a Shredder in my collection.
Woah...I thought this was gonna be a video where you just talk about the figure (like typical Hatter just blabbering about stuff - but w/cat sifting in the background), didn't know it's already arrived from the all mighty AliExpress. Yep, got me one on its way. I'm just really bummed they didn't throw in _at least_ one weapon. Like I don't have the previous two, so no Mirage weapons to give him ☹️. *Oh man, what a brutally honest bummed out review. Yep, the lack of anything to hold with the 18 gripping hands really suck. ...and why couldn't we have gotten a pair of karate choppin', neutral, or grabby _'gimmie something to hold!'_ hands??
@@NostalgiaUnboxed Nice! Mine's locked in too. Didn't take long to find when I just went to the same seller I've been buying from. Just watched those Hatter videos...the guy who believes everything from AliExpress are KO's 🤦🏼♂️. Uh, that was a rough (yet very satisfying w/the fact bombs dropped on the dude's head) situation man.
Great unboxing and review as usual! ThanX to ur channel I know this exists. Need this as I don't have a comic Shredder. Will u review the Mirage Splinter? Cheers!
@@NostalgiaUnboxed it's interesting how the character became THE villian. But in that run he was dealt with like a chump super easily and begs the question when making a figure do you make it and the accessories super accurate, which they did...

Noo i am late to the party. Unfortunatly i have to agree with you, i am bummed out i bought this, payed for shipping... i want to return it so bad 😂 but yeah putting it on a boat twice is not even worth it.
This figs accessories all tie into his first appearance in the first issue. The grenade comes out at the end and it blows him up. That gauntlet has his arm inside it and is picked up and tossed aside in the final frame. This shredder doesn’t make it out of the first issue😹
Also, I’m out of the mirage line. There’s way too much tmnt stuff coming out and some of these new releases are just ugly figures in one solid color. Stoked for folks who get em but they’re just not for me.
@@spadedonemcdysentery2493 aside from Zog none of the comic stuff has been appealing to me. Well, I guess the brothers from the Ronin line will be acquired 100% 😂
@@NostalgiaUnboxed the ronin stuff are just amazing looking figures in general. Even most of the toon stuff looks good to me I just can’t stand repaints and it looks like that mirage line is gonna be rife with em. Pink shredders and stuff like that.
@@NostalgiaUnboxed the mirage line is my favorite, even if the figure has trash articulation and accessories, I am unfortunately focused on getting all of the mirage characters 😅
@@NostalgiaUnboxed Hasbro not having unmasked heads, bruh! I do however recommend Joy Toy military figures, the detail is insane for 1/18 scale, they are in fact the same people who did the Frontline Chaos figure you reviewed.
He’s crying cuz end of issue 1 they brutally beat the crap out of him then toss him off a roof. That’s it shredder’s dead first issue. Spoiler for a 50 year old comic.
@@NostalgiaUnboxed yeah old Eastman and Laird stuff was pretty dark and brutal, heavily inspired by Frank Miller. But they got away with a lot more blood being a B&W book than most other comics. And I mentioned before their use of duotone which being an artist u would find interesting. It’s basically like a magic paper that when a chemical is added turns shades of grey so they would ink the drawing then use the chemical to color it.
Omg your commentary gets me everytime 😄 Great vid bro and the figure is cool I guess 👍🏼 I probably won't be pickin this one up tho I have better Shred figures lol.

Beautiful!! Thank you for that. I knew someone would fix my broken brain on this one. Lol
He has been showing up randomly in some stores
Strange, many overseas stores had it up.
That's where I thought this was from...
It's a thermite grenade....
Spoilers
It blows him up at the end of the first comic. Shredder is dead at the end of the first issue.
The other gauntlet is what's left of him.
Like totally dead after 1 issue?? I guess this is why the clones come into play, huh? That’s crazy
@@NostalgiaUnboxed It gets much crazier after the FOUR clones (the three that are out, plus a fourth 'successful attempt). Don't want to spoil it, but if they carry on making these, there's one figure I'm really hoping they do based on the Shredder family.

@@EpykkDyzastur I wish I knew what your comment said
It is good to see you not glowing about a figure as it shows that your reviews can go either way and they are worth checking out!

@@Chalor. and if no weapon then why all the hands?? Dumb
Gotcha!
You shredded the shredder. Heartless. Kinda hot
He is dead to me
That one arm piece comes from when one of the turtles. Leo or mike had in the comic and they threw on the ground
love it
I don't know why they go with the idw color classics instead of the first graphic novel and cover art colors, and I wish they added articulation for the bladed shoulder pad and the shoulders.
Hopefully they end up doing a new sculpt and address these issues
The bomb and broken gauntlet….are specific key (before & after) moments, of Shredder’s death.
Brutal
Shredder wears his weapons. He’s an articulated accessory for Mirage Turts.
Lol
The quality and how every figure looks is amazing they did a great job on these
NECA is hard to beat at that price
Dude your channel rocks, i dont understand how you dont have more views! Love your content man, never stop making it!
I appreciate that!
I’m an inbox guy , you waving that thing around by it’s leg is making me nuts 😅
Hahahaha! You should see what I do with my boxes!
7:38 "There was this icicle, and it fell, and it broke my gauntlet... 😭"
😂
OMG!!! Howie Mandel is the Shredder 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Right?
No word of a lie, I started watching this video & my BD Shredder just arrived in the post from Ali Expres!!!!😍
Haha! Amazing
They need a new shredder mold REAL bad. This one is soooooo old at this point. Hell, it was pretty much outdated when it released!
I believe it! That torso is awful and posing him was so frustrating
Yeah, it's weird when NECA pulls a hasbro. If they don't wanna break up the sculpt with a ball jointed diaphragm, they could ball joint the hell outta the waist; then you'd get _something._
😂😂😂 LEGENDARY! I almost ripped the damn gauntlet off 🤣🤣 thankfullly the red one has COOL weapons that I actually used for this! Entertaining as hell as always

I ordered him along with the Larsen TMNT's. I can't wait!
Wooo! Those thick turtles better be awesome!
@@NostalgiaUnboxed I believe they will be. My camera is ready for some great photo ops!
@@EpykkDyzastur heck yeah!
This is the only mirage shredder we get apparently, if you don't want to spend $200.
sucks
I cannot unsee Oroku Howie 😄
The Mirage comics are great btw. I finally bought and read the first 3 volumes a couple years ago.
😂 perfect

Gauntlet could be used for diorama scenes as that is all that is left of him after issue number 1.
Great idea
I love how you committed to barely reading anything on the box before saying reading is for losers. I thought I was gonna catch you, but you're a slippery snake. 🐍🤣
You can’t catch me!!
The damaged gauntlet is the remains of shredder the turtles pick up and say the shredder is shredded
Perfect
Getting the other mirage shredders are hard to come by because neca doesn't resale sdcc exclusive let alone mirage tmnt figures in store shelves like they oversaturate the collector toy isle market with making everybody in the 87 tmnt cartoon and 90s movies figures

Haha! Thank you!
I think I’m just about maxed out on TMNT neca stuff😂
Never!
Still no news on classic colors shredder?? 😭😭
no
Dang, I was about to ask this😥
REALLY hard to stand up. Even harder to KEEP standing once stood.
