Playmates has made the 6 inch Classic Turtles and reused the toon molds like a million times with little modifications. One of them is the 1990 movie variants. These are a lazy reuse but with a new hat. They have less stuff than The Secret of the Ooze releases that were exclusive to Wal-Mart around 2015-2016.
These Turtles are a retread with trenchcoat and hat. Sure, the Cobra Kai crossover, the Stranger things Crossover, the Mirage styled redecos exist, but these were somewhat accessible. Now let's tackle the Turtle Boys.
Articulation:
These boys are VERY articulated. Finger and toe articulation. If you get the Mirage versions of the turtles, whether getting them on their own or buying the stranger things 2 packs; You can recreate the NES game artwork with them.
My only gripes with your articulation. Is that the ankles don't have rockers and the Articulated fingers don't grip the weapons that well. Legs can be a bit on the loose side.
5.0
Paint and sculpt:
The turtles might be based on the movie versions.But the paint work is a bit lacking it as they don't have the spots. Also the sculpting is Soft like the vintage toy turtles not The movie Turtles.
4.5
Accessories:
Here we are short changed as the turtles only have their signature weapons.The trench coat and a flocked hat. I honestly hate that the hat is flocked. Can't take pictures in the rain for it'll get ruined
2.5
Overall:
Surprisingly the turtles get a 4.0 as their final score. The lack of accessories hurts them really bad. In any case these will be the Adult Turtles on my Super7/Best AXN display.
