Great review (and poses)! The purple stuff is worms. In the original Mirage comics, Shredder was killed. The foot resurrected him with worms(and had three failed attempts with the disfigured clones).
Haven't opened this yet, so I'm a little surprised by the lack of useful articulation, but it's hard to argue with the price point for the amount of plastic you get. I haven't read the comics either, but this & Zog were my 2 most anticipated releases for Haulathon. Even felt the need to pick up Mutant Claw Shredder to go with them. 😅
@Nostalgia Unboxed yeah for only $13ish over the normal figures Zog is a great value! But for only $3-4 more bucks, this clone set is pretty outstanding as well.
Honestly I’m loving the mirage line. I’ve gotten every single release since they reintroduced the line. Besides the lootcrate stuff. Even went back and got some KO turtles since I have no set control. The goop is actually space worms which the clones are made of
@@nostalgic_nick1461 Who's Dog? Not sure if that's some deep dive info on a nickname for Casey or Renette. Oh wait, is Dog actually Zog? Is there a God too?
I found your channel because of the game show, price is right type of game you did with the Mad Hatter. You have a fun and interesting style. So I looked up a few of your videos and here I am in your comments section... commenting. You shall acquire a new subscriber once I finish the comment. Ok, onto this video review specifically... I've not opened my figure yet (or the Claw Shredder), but the appeal of these figures goes beyond the limited articulation, it's about the story and the characters. If you have not read the original Mirage comics, I strongly suggest you do. The Ultimate Collection volumes are great (I chose the black and white... don't want those odly colored versions), and contain commentary from both Peter Laird and Keven Eastman. The storyline arc with these Shredder Clones is one of my favorites, if not favorite part of the Mirage era. Posing them with Zog and the Turtles will be cool... if I ever get around to that.
Man, I love it. Thank you for the kind words and sharing that. I really need to get myself into reading these. It’s a personal problem of thinking “but I could be doing something productive right now”. I never stop between making videos and all my design work. Lol
I have been loving the Mirage line. I tapped outta Toon and dove straight into Mirage/Ronin to make up for it (not sure thats a good or bad thing) I missed out on Claw Shredder and OG 4pack Shredder. Wish they would re-release a single pack OG Shredder in red cuz that 4 pack is pricey on the internet. Bummer on the articulation but great review and vid regardless
yyyeeaaaa....... Notorious for that, Neca figures need to be heated up. Once it is. Then the articulation comes out. They go great with any villain montages. At least you liked some of the figure. ❤ And yes😂... the shoulder spikes came off. Put it aside,, lol. Jst more articulation on the head. Lol.
Oh no, yours snapped off? Bummer. These weren’t the stuff joint issue, they just didn’t have the range. I’m sure they look great with the claw shredder though. Nice gang
Yea it did. Because of the "helmet". But its ok. I think it's better. Because I knew these NECA have stiff joints. Needs some shock oil. I have a heat gun. So I heat them up a tiny bit as I play......... I mean pose them....... lol. But they are ok figures.
@@NostalgiaUnboxed Another impressive review Johnathan! I noticed that Rex-1 is one of the ones from this year's Haulathon that you are keeping. Is he the best figure for Haulathon 2023 in your opinion?

Gross but awesome! Lol. That’s an awesome storyline! (And thanks for the kind words)
I am obsessed with the comics. These guys are just 2/3 of a the Shredder clones. They look so good when they’re with Claw Shredder.
Yeah, I always forget about the claw version. A triple pack would have been sweet
@Nostalgia Unboxed that'd have been really nice considering the price of Claw Shredder at this time lol
@@NostalgiaUnboxed ⚠️ 📢 🚨👽 Shredder Clone 3pack is a thing! How'd you foresee this twist of fate??
@@ioncewasmikey haha! Wild
The pose with him spanking mini shredder lmao! 😂
Now I know why those hands were included lol

Haha. Claw Shredder is a good addition to the set. Zog is incredible and I feel he is a much better value with what he comes with and how big he is

@@NostalgiaUnboxed gotta be a tie between dog and the utrom going to have a hard time army building them.
@@nostalgic_nick1461 oh nice, yeah that will be sweet though!

Invest in some sprue cutters. Much easier than scissors or razer blades.
Normally I have some craft scissors that work well, but you’re right
Always a pleasure to see you. Neca turtles are my favorite 🤙💨👽🛸
Thank you! They are definitely making the best stuff for the price!

Thank you! I totally understand dropping the toon line. Just too many to get them all.
worms lol
Gross
Love how you review the figures that I don’t want to buy duplicates of to open 😅 Makes me feel like I opened mine 😂
Haha! That’s a compliment! Thank you
This purple like digusting bugs are alien worms that can duplicate someone
Gross
Maybe the little guy is THE accessory😂
Haha. Like baby shredder with Krang. That’s a whole lot of Krang plastic just to get the little guy

Tiny shredder baby shredder to da momma shredder?!
Hahaha. Where’s the momma? We need that
@@NostalgiaUnboxed What we need is NECA to release the dinosaurs line already
@@moescatobotcollects dude, I knowwwww. Please!
Another reason why I skipped buying this one LOL!🤗🤔🙄🙏
Good for the background, but not a necessary set
