Not the biggest fan of MM but I was pleasantly surprised with the Raph figure I picked up at target. Painted his eyes all white and that made it look even better!
My favorite has been the NECA 80's cartoon line. They have been putting out such fantastic figures. I also very much love the nostalgia of the "Coming Out of Our Shells" concert turtles NECA put out as well.
Looking forward to your thoughts. I did a video about this back in 2021, and need to make a follow-up since there have been SO many new additions to the figure roster haha. Can’t wait to hear your opinion!
I have some of 2003, 2012 core gang & in the process of collecting the Mutant Mayhem line!. I'm not getting into the adult collectible teritory for the moment, it's expensive in my country, and Playmates really satisfies my craving because of its affordable price. I really want to collect the Neca OG 87 turtle and the live action, but I miss it when it's hot. I do plan to collect the upcoming MOTU origins-like 87 turtle line, looks promising so far! 🤞
Mezco and SH Figuarts if you want quality. All other brands break and crumple after a few months. The reissue Playmates are built like a tank too, but they are for kids.
my favorite set has changed over the years. it used to be the playmates animated series classic collection with the goofy pupils, then it was the neca 19990 turtles, then the revoltech turtles. I really think mezco would top them all but I still have them sealed because the resale price has been doing insane things so i kinda wanna just hold em incase they hit 1k+ as I think I'd rather have OG neca turtles or the mondo turtles for that price. current honorable mentions that I own would be the samurai force turtles from Rage/Fury/Furay, and the neca turtles in disguise 4 pack. the turtles im looking for now are the 2024 punk turtles and the pizza club releases.
Might wanna open that set to inspect them and enjoy them because I'm almost positive mezco is making more due to qc replacements and the overall excitement of the figures. They won't make ya rich... so the fun of the figures is worth more than the profit imo
@@miKeYdOEsNtLiKeiT508 it’s worth it to me to make $600 so I’m holding them for now trust me I’ve thought about it lol. And if I do sell them I would ask the buyer if they want me to check for duplicate turtles because that is tragic
@@miKeYdOEsNtLiKeiT508 and yes it appears mezco will be re-releasing select figures but is tmnt already #1 on the triage? You never know. And yeah I’ll probably open it lol but I also have a million other figures to open as well
I loved this video. Very well done, and provided wave after wave of nostalgia the whole way through. For me, the original 90's live action foursome are MY turtles. I love the comic versions, and I definitely love the original cartoon series, but those live action films from my childhood were and still are the end-all/be-all. As such, my favorite TMNT figures are, without question, NECA's live action line. So masterfully designed and produced, they look like they literally jumped right off the screen.
I loved Mutant Mayhem, and the accessibility of the figures probably enchanced that. Ten dollars for a nicely sized figure with a fair amount of details is a steal. That, and you can find them almost anywhere! So much so, that I'm only missing Bebop and Rocksteady.
I was so happy when I saw the thumbnail I’m a huge tmnt and tmnt figure guy and watch your vids all the time! I grew up with the tmnt 2012 playmates toys and it was basically all I spent my childhood money on. I sold a ton a few years back and I regret it 😭
Coming back to watch now that it’s live! I love what Super7 did with the Ultimate line, I admit they got me for more figures than I planned to buy but I’ve liked them all. The classic four brothers look great all together. I’ve got the Playmates inspired heads on mine, but the alt heads are great and remind me of early IDW artwork. Really good figures! I never got the Batman/TMNT set but I kick myself for that, I remember when they were on clearance and I just didn’t grab them. I think that style suits the turtles nicely, but it sucks that the quality declined so much as the series went on. I was impressed with the BST AXN ones too. I never got their toon line, but for the price, their IDW line is really cool. I’m not SUPER into the designs, but the figures themselves are really good. The Mezco set is VERY nice. Almost TOO many accessories haha, it’s overwhelming. I think worth the cost, I have my very minor nitpicks (including your red bandana alt head inclusion) but overall I love the set. Really good video - I maintain that my favorites are still Revoltech and the early Mirage from NECA, but I might end up changing my tune with some of the newer sets.
I love the super seven figures and don’t really get much of the hate for them but for me the 2012 ninja turtle figures from playmates based off the Nickelodeon show are the best, the articulation the weapons, the look,love it. Great video
For me it’s between the neca mirage turtles and mezco. The neca mirage set that came out last year (I refuse to call them Lawson turtles, it’s cringey) are the style of turtles figures I’ve wanted my entire life. I’m obsessed with Peter Lairds turtles in that style, Peter drew them in that style long before Lawson drew RTNY. So it makes my skin crawl when people call them the Lawson set and give him credit for that style when he was mimicking peters. On the other hand the mezco range of articulation are just top level, never been done before. If mezco made them in the style of those neca mirage turtles with alternate red bandannas and all the same bright green skin tone they’d be unbeatable best figures ever made easily.
@@CarbonScoring it’s the truth! There’s a lot of die hard Lawson fans that wouldn’t listen and acting like I was trying to discredit Lawson. He’s a great artist but at the time he said himself he was mimicking their styles at first. There’s nothing wrong with that, but you have to credit Peter for drawing those beautiful box like Turtles in that style first because he did! lol. They’re my favorite design for the turtles and I do love how Lawson drew them as well.
The revoltech 2012 set of figures and the mezco set are like my dream to have, nothing could beat those figures on a tmnt standurd, only thing that might compare are those new metytoys turtles that come out next year some time.
Your opinion on which turtle design we like best makes sense, but i don't have a top 1. I truly discovered 3 or 4 styles at nearly the same time! Cartoon, Mirage, Archie, and toys
I grew up with the 1990 movie and 1980 cartoon turtles. It’s neca’s release of those for me. It’s what got me back into collecting as an adult. They’re all fun, lots to choose for everyone.
Just what I asked for. Neca made the best kind. Revoltech TMNT 2012 are my favorite. They are accurate to the show. TMNT Mutant Mayhem was an amazing movie. The figures are great Video idea: Fox X-Men figures for the hype of Deadpool & Wolverine. - Flash DC figures
Really solid list! LOVE those first NECA Mirage Comic turtles, but for me it'll always be the OG Playmates figures, close second being the NECA 1990s movie turtles.
Oh man! You need to add the rage turtles from 5k toys to your collection. I would have loved to hear your thoughts. Btw, I'd love the 2003 turtles with 16 points of articulation....just wishful thinking 😅
This is definitely a toy line that I love almost every single version. Sadly, I can't afford them all. But I did manage to get the super seven Turtles and there amazing and I have the 2012 playmates figures I wish you could have been Included the upcoming playmates classic remasters that are coming.grate video
I will cherish my '90s movie Turtles by NECA, but I would love to get the '87 figures, and hoping they put out figures based on the Chris Allan designs. I would also love to get the Super7, SH Figuarts, Revoltect, and the Mezco figures at some point.
The playmate figures for the 3D animated series which I have all four of the turtle but found different weapons they didn't come with them but they all have their ideal weapons they used
I think Mezco pulled off what they were attempting to do extremely well. So I think they are in a class of their own as THE set to get overall. That being said No one, and I mean no one can outshine NECA for what they've done for the Turtle franchise as a whole. Lets do a head count: -All 3 90s live action movies in extreme Detail -Every Character on the O.G first light hearted (pre 90s movie) seasons of the cartoon including the turtles in different appearances. -A STRONG line for the Mirage series with the Help and blessing of one of the creators - The extremely Popular last Ronin line(with the help of one the artists on that comic) -The often forgotten Arcade/videogame line -And the slow but still ongoing Archie comics line. Mezco made an Amazing Set, but Neca did Fantasic lines ! Also, the SHFiguarts figures are by far the best when it come to hand candy and fun factor. The heft, the poseabily gives them a "I cant put it down" quality that adds to their charm. A shame Bandai/ Tamashii axed that line after the turtles...
For me the original playmates 80's figures, the tie in rubber TMNT III rubber figures with the spots on them, the mirage figures, the playmates updated figures and the Mezco Mirage line that recently came out are easily the best TMNT figures.
I stopped paying attention to the Turtles after the early 90s, but Mutant Mayhem caught y attention. I snagged the brothers and Splinter with zero hesitation. That's what brought me here, and I like what you have shown of the Super7 toys.
Please review the playmates 1990 TMNT turtles in disguise figures if you haven’t already. (I got one for 12 bucks and it has the articulation of a neca figure (including articulated fingers) (it’s 30 dollars in Walmart but I got it for 12 dollars in Amazon)
It’s going to have to remain ____ for me right now . I don’t have Mezco turtles so when I do I’ll give you my opinion . You have one of the best channels for figures in TH-cam! Great video sir!
as a kid the 2k3 figs were amazing so i'd love to find some mint ones cause the rerelease they did doesn't really do it for me not sure why tho maybe the paint is off?
Where are my action figure favorite? The one that has a hole on the back where you can put a round shield in and then when you put the turtle on its back it spins off in the round that is a 90's action figure turtle but I can't find it anywhere somebody has a clue?
I'm not really the biggest turtle fan, the last time I picked up a set was the original playmates when they first came out and me and my brother had to split the 4 (in terms of owning them) when we were kids... but I just had to get those Mutant Mayhem turtles because they're A. Cheap B. Readily Available C. Nicely sculpted for a kid's toy D. Playable
Nice video! My favorite action figures are the neca movie figures these are good. But I feel like neca totally stole playmates. Now neca gets the attention and not playmates! Like playmates are cool bruh!
I hope Jada Toys will have their own TMNT figures (yes, they did metal figures before) that are somewhat similar with the Mezco ones in terms of colors (I love each turtle having unique coloration) with excellent articulation. And of course, way cheaper.
It was an era I wasn’t into the Turtles - my kids brought me back in 2012 and I try not to talk about figures I don’t have. I recognize it is a gap in my collection
@@CarbonScoring the 2003 series does get overlooked a lot, it's the adaptation that's the closest to the original comics, I do recommend it, especially since it's getting recognition again
The og mirage turtles by neca will be the grail i probably will never achieve and the 1 :12 mezcos r probably the grail that ill use to substitute for the true grail
The first Super 7 figures look the best to me. The figures with the goofy faces, joints or necks aren't what kids grew up with. The original toy line and cartoon is where it's at. The Neca figures look awesome too, if they had the correct colors of bandanas, they'd be beyond perfect.
The mezco turtles have the playmates sculpts and colors and accessories.. mirage comics proportions... and texture of like the 90s films... nothing tops the mezco. And for the price. Nothing should lol if you dont own the set you just won't get it.. the easy pop and swap of head and hands.. the smoothness of the articulation.. so happy to own the set. I've been mainly collecting the mezco rumble society stuff so im over the moon that they obtained the tmnt brand .
I have two local Mom and Pop type stores who sell THE coolest figures I've ever seen. They are like 8 inches tall and ALL metal. Different metal pieces welded together that have been grinded or manipulated to make the proper shapes....I want to say steampunk style, but that doesn't do them justice. Not cheap, 75 bucks each, 300 for the set....I have the set😁 They look great among my 30 year dvd collection and original turtle van centerpiece. Give anything if I could post a pic here.
Sorry to ruin your completely incorrect statement, but no. The first turtles I met are not my favorites nor are they favorites of my friends favorites. We all start with the animated cartoon from the '80s and '90s, but my favorite turtles are by far the live action movie turtles
My favorite turtles and the best turtles I have have to be the revoltech turtles, but I might be a bit biased because that’s my favorite cartoon! Although I did have the Mezco turtles on pre-order and I was really hyped to get them but sadly it got canceled now if they ever go back into stock, I’ll probably end up getting them
Yeah, I’m happy you like them a bit more because in your last turtles video it didn’t sound like you love them but once you play with them a bit more you get used to them and then you start liking them if that makes sense lol
Great Video, very informative! But there is a glaring hole in your line up, where are the SHF Turtles??? IMO, no other line has been able to balance the aesthetics and articulation like SHF did. And for all of us who grew up in the 80s as Turtle fans, we all remembered being bombarded with all different type of marketing materials like the Posters, T-shirts, party decorations, lunch boxes, folders, stickers, erasers, the list goes on and on. Those Turtles in the marketing materials did not look like the cartoons nor the toys, they had their own aesthetics and that is what SHF nailed perfectly.
So how much do you want for them DC Turtles....? LOL I scored a set on ebay cuz I was late to the game, so finding in the wild was out of the question. NECA makes my favorite, both movie line and cartoon line.
IMO revoltech is the best since 2012 is my favorite and I want to get raph. I would buy the “best” raph too but I’m used to the anime/cartoonic feel of 2012 since I grew up with it
For me my first encounter with the turtles was playmates toys in '88, but as far as best figure ever produced I'll say for me it goes NECA Mirage Turtles > Revoltech 2012 Turtles > NECA Movie Turtles > Super7 Playmates Turtles.
I have. Almost every modern figures version of the turtles there are... I like them all I think all are great but the best for me. Are the sh figuarts ..m sculpture material articulation. All about them is amazing. And the Revoltech I never had those. But look absolutely amazing and about the Mezco siding like those huge. Bubble heads they have....that's why I didn't get it
The Mezco turtles are crazy expensive. They look more like $60 each instead of $125 each. I know ppl want these. Make them available for the average person instead of the filthy rich. $500 for a set is just dumb.
The fact that Mutant Mayhem had a good quality line of figures at theatrical release seemed like a big feat alone.
Agree - Playmates doesn't get nearly enough credit for making good, affordable toys and then actually getting them on store shelves!
@@CarbonScoring hasbro needs to take some notes with theyre transformers studio series distribution😅
Not the biggest fan of MM but I was pleasantly surprised with the Raph figure I picked up at target. Painted his eyes all white and that made it look even better!
Action figures Transformers one.
Paramount and Hasbro.
I don’t know which one out of these three, IDW loyal subjects, Mezco, or 80’s NECA figures. They’re SOOO GOOD
You can always do what I do and get them all!!!
My favorite has been the NECA 80's cartoon line. They have been putting out such fantastic figures. I also very much love the nostalgia of the "Coming Out of Our Shells" concert turtles NECA put out as well.
Both good calls!
The Revoltech Turles from 2012 are my holy grail when it comes to TMNT collecting.
Yep - they are super sweet!
The mezco seems to be the king now
@@midnightwafflezz Not for me. Those 2012 designs are my absolute favorite
Same, and the NECA movie figures. Until those Super7 figures of the 2003 TMNT come in that is lol
Why did you have to let me those exist you bastard!!!! I need 2012 turtles
During the 2012 tmnt I couldn't stop smiling because i grew up with those action figures and the show
Yes! Thames bring me tons of joy as well!
Looking forward to your thoughts. I did a video about this back in 2021, and need to make a follow-up since there have been SO many new additions to the figure roster haha. Can’t wait to hear your opinion!
I'll check it out!
We NEED that vid man! One of my personal favorites about TMNT figs!
Loved growing up with the 2012 turtles! I'm 20 now and it's still my fav toyline of all time, kept em all to this day :)
A truly great collection!
Me too bro))) 2004 kids and 2012 turtles =🐐🐐🐐
The only thing running through my head the entire duration of the video is the 90s cartoon theme song love them and the 2003 revive!
I wanted to include the song, but I really like for my videos not to get de-monitized, soooooo...
@@CarbonScoring totally get it!
Original playmates is my jam. So I like the updated set from super 7!
They are very nice. And they should be...
The SHFiguarts turtles are pretty nice, too, when it comes to representation of the cartoon turtles.
I need to pick those up!!!
I have some of 2003, 2012 core gang & in the process of collecting the Mutant Mayhem line!.

Mezco and SH Figuarts if you want quality. All other brands break and crumple after a few months. The reissue Playmates are built like a tank too, but they are for kids.
6:46 it is not battle damage it was damage from being dropped as a baby
Original playmates line has been and always will be the greatest line of Tmnt figures ever produced.

I think Mezco pulled off what they were attempting to do extremely well. So I think they are in a class of their own as THE set to get overall.
That being said
No one, and I mean no one can outshine NECA for what they've done for the Turtle franchise as a whole. Lets do a head count:
-All 3 90s live action movies in extreme Detail
-Every Character on the O.G first light hearted (pre 90s movie) seasons of the cartoon including the turtles in different appearances.
-A STRONG line for the Mirage series with the Help and blessing of one of the creators
- The extremely Popular last Ronin line(with the help of one the artists on that comic)
-The often forgotten Arcade/videogame line
-And the slow but still ongoing Archie comics line.
Mezco made an Amazing Set, but Neca did Fantasic lines !
Also, the SHFiguarts figures are by far the best when it come to hand candy and fun factor. The heft, the poseabily gives them a "I cant put it down" quality that adds to their charm. A shame Bandai/ Tamashii axed that line after the turtles...

I hope Jada Toys will have their own TMNT figures (yes, they did metal figures before) that are somewhat similar with the Mezco ones in terms of colors (I love each turtle having unique coloration) with excellent articulation. And of course, way cheaper.
Kind of disappointed that the 2003 series wasn't shown
It was an era I wasn’t into the Turtles - my kids brought me back in 2012 and I try not to talk about figures I don’t have. I recognize it is a gap in my collection
@@CarbonScoring the 2003 series does get overlooked a lot, it's the adaptation that's the closest to the original comics, I do recommend it, especially since it's getting recognition again
Another good video today thank you carbon scoring❤
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for the watch!
The og mirage turtles by neca will be the grail i probably will never achieve and the 1 :12 mezcos r probably the grail that ill use to substitute for the true grail
Love love love those OG turtles
2012 were awesome, the ones who had molded 3 toes to match their fingers. Not talking about the lazy feet toe versions.
Love me some 2012!
The first Super 7 figures look the best to me. The figures with the goofy faces, joints or necks aren't what kids grew up with. The original toy line and cartoon is where it's at. The Neca figures look awesome too, if they had the correct colors of bandanas, they'd be beyond perfect.
Appreciate the comment! I think everyone has "their" turtles - for me, those bandanas are perfect!
@@CarbonScoring Notice I said "beyond perfect" lol.
I know it’s controversial, but I love the Rise series and figures.
Nah, man - love what you love - don’t let anyone tell you otherwise
I tell you man, if we could get this level of comic accurate figures for marvel and DC, I would die happy
The mezco turtles have the playmates sculpts and colors and accessories.. mirage comics proportions... and texture of like the 90s films... nothing tops the mezco. And for the price. Nothing should lol if you dont own the set you just won't get it.. the easy pop and swap of head and hands.. the smoothness of the articulation.. so happy to own the set. I've been mainly collecting the mezco rumble society stuff so im over the moon that they obtained the tmnt brand .
You said it way better that I did! I need you to write the script for my next video!
@CarbonScoring thanks lol I'm just obsessed with this set lol I love the channel tho with how well you go over stuff 💪👌
So which set is the objective best?
There is nothing objective about action figure collecting - beauty is always in the eye of the beholder!
@@CarbonScoring true lol
I grew up in the Early 2000s but somehow had the 90s movie(which is still my favorite) so my favorite turtles are the Neca 1990 movie turtles
Lots of love in the comments for those!
I always thought the triangular blade was supposed to be a slice of pizza
That is an even better idea!
I have two local Mom and Pop type stores who sell THE coolest figures I've ever seen. They are like 8 inches tall and ALL metal. Different metal pieces welded together that have been grinded or manipulated to make the proper shapes....I want to say steampunk style, but that doesn't do them justice. Not cheap, 75 bucks each, 300 for the set....I have the set😁 They look great among my 30 year dvd collection and original turtle van centerpiece. Give anything if I could post a pic here.
This video takes me bk to my childhood I love tmnt so cool 🐢
Glad you enjoyed it!!!
The beefy neca are my favorite but mickey in the bat cowl is great
I have that one!!!
2012 forward have been too cutesy for me. especially 2012 and rise just terrible.
I'm not really into collecting figures, but Mutant Mayhem movie and the affordable price of the figures made me buy all four of the turtles😊
YES! $10 for a figure in 2024? Sign me up!!!
My favorites are the original movie star turtles and neca 1990 movie figures
Both super cool sets!
I’m partial to the mega construx ninja turtles myself as you can world-build like nothing else.
I love it! Great call!
I wish they were able to make action figures of the 2007 TMNT movie
I know why most companies omitted the tails. It looks like something else from the front.
Yep - you got ir
No 2003 series figures? 😢
I missed that Turtle era, sadly
SH Figuarts TMNT are nice. It's unfortunate that they weren't included in this video.
You are right! If I owned them, I would have included them
@@CarbonScoring It's actually awesome that you owned all these figures
Sorry to ruin your completely incorrect statement, but no. The first turtles I met are not my favorites nor are they favorites of my friends favorites. We all start with the animated cartoon from the '80s and '90s, but my favorite turtles are by far the live action movie turtles
Cool - I always say, like what you like!
What are you on about
@@averystudios02 it's pretty well stated in my statement. Not sure where your disconnect is.
appreciate you carbon
Another HM for the 1/4 neca turtle lines they are really impressive I just prefer 5-7 inch for turtles
Those are mammoth!
My favorite turtles and the best turtles I have have to be the revoltech turtles, but I might be a bit biased because that’s my favorite cartoon!
Although I did have the Mezco turtles on pre-order and I was really hyped to get them but sadly it got canceled now if they ever go back into stock, I’ll probably end up getting them
The Revoltech are really cool in hand!
Yeah, I’m happy you like them a bit more because in your last turtles video it didn’t sound like you love them but once you play with them a bit more you get used to them and then you start liking them if that makes sense lol
Great Video, very informative! But there is a glaring hole in your line up, where are the SHF Turtles??? IMO, no other line has been able to balance the aesthetics and articulation like SHF did. And for all of us who grew up in the 80s as Turtle fans, we all remembered being bombarded with all different type of marketing materials like the Posters, T-shirts, party decorations, lunch boxes, folders, stickers, erasers, the list goes on and on. Those Turtles in the marketing materials did not look like the cartoons nor the toys, they had their own aesthetics and that is what SHF nailed perfectly.
Sadly, I don’t have those - but reading the comments, clearly I need to find them!
@@CarbonScoring you got to get your hands on these and make a video. Keep up the great work. Big fan!
@@Al-ic7po Will do! Thanks for the love!
@@CarbonScoring with your deep knowledge of the TMNT toys, we would live to hear what you think of the SHF line
Joytoy has some excellent turtle figures
I need to check those out!
So how much do you want for them DC Turtles....? LOL I scored a set on ebay cuz I was late to the game, so finding in the wild was out of the question. NECA makes my favorite, both movie line and cartoon line.
I really love the super 7 figures. They manage to just be the turtles without being a specific version.
Those are some of my favorites as well - I have collected that complete line!
IMO revoltech is the best since 2012 is my favorite and I want to get raph. I would buy the “best” raph too but I’m used to the anime/cartoonic feel of 2012 since I grew up with it
The Mezco turtles are next level
They are really incredible in hand - check out some of the photos D Amazing did of these - his work is sooooo good!
My favorite are the 2012 turtles Nickelodeon
Nice list BUT I can’t believe the NECA movie lines didn’t make the cut. 90’s movie box set ftw imo.
They are great- I just don’t own any…
Never had Revoltec figures. I have the 2012 TMNT. Cool TMNT figures based on the comics.
Lots of good ones in here - big fan of 2012!
You mean classics based on 1988 cartoon version.?🤔
Who loves tmnt
👇
Everyone one watching this video
This guy!!!
For me my first encounter with the turtles was playmates toys in '88, but as far as best figure ever produced I'll say for me it goes
NECA Mirage Turtles > Revoltech 2012 Turtles > NECA Movie Turtles > Super7 Playmates Turtles.
I have. Almost every modern figures version of the turtles there are... I like them all I think all are great but the best for me. Are the sh figuarts ..m sculpture material articulation. All about them is amazing. And the Revoltech I never had those. But look absolutely amazing and about the Mezco siding like those huge. Bubble heads they have....that's why I didn't get it
Fair enough!
Que buen video Tmnt 2012 revoltech mis favoritas, pero se viene la versión Neca
I’m looking forward to the 2003 Turtles from Super7 as well!
1) Mezco
2) Neca (original Mirage)
3) BST (Loyal Subjects)
4) 2012 Playmates
5) Super7
6) Mutant Mayhem
7) Batman vs TMNT
8) Neca (Return to NY)
9) Revoltech (yuck)
I’d have the NECA NYC higher, but otherwise we are pretty much on track
How do you like the upcoming Super7 figures?
I’m psyched for them - saw the prototypes at Comic Con in San Diego - they look great!
@@CarbonScoring I wish they had more pics of them posed up.
I enjoy comparison videos.
Amazing video I got all of this figures and there all great
Awesome! Thank you! That means a ton coming from you!
Mezco.
Yeah, they are pretty great!
The Mezco turtles are crazy expensive. They look more like $60 each instead of $125 each. I know ppl want these. Make them available for the average person instead of the filthy rich. $500 for a set is just dumb.
I hear you - they were stupid expensive
Right? You could buy a PS5 for those price lol
How much you want for em? 👀
I think I'll keep these!
