NECA has revealed their first San Diego Comic-Con 2019 Exclusive, and it’s going to have Ninja Turtles fans psyched. They have announced the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 1990 Movie “The Capture of Splinter” 7″ Scale Figure Set. This exclusive set includes 7″ scale versions of Shredder, two Foot soldiers and Splinter! Also included is an assortment of weapons, a wood crate, shackles, interchangeable hands, and a weapon rack. The set will be priced at $125. Check out the details below.
To keep up with tradition, we are happy to announce our first #SDCC 2019 Exclusive, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1990 Movie) – 7” Scale Action Figure – “The Capture of Splinter” 4-Pack!
After wading in a puddle of radioactive waste, four ordinary reptiles become more than just turtles, and are raised by the similarly transformed rat Splinter to become New York City’s greatest crime-fighting quartet. Their biggest enemy—and Splinter’s nemesis—is The Shredder, ruthless leader of the Foot Clan, a criminal organization that’s terrorizing the city. Yet is only after Splinter is captured by the Foot that the Turtles learn how far back his feud with Shredder goes…
This epic box set recreates the “Capture of Splinter” scene from the 1990 movie in 7” scale, all the way down to the in-box positioning! The set includes Splinter (with cloth robe), Shredder (with cloth cape), and two Foot soldiers, plus plenty of extras: manacles, a cardstock crate, and a weapons rack for storing all the Foot clan accessories.
Slipcase over window box packaging.
Limited non-attendee pre-sales for the NECA SDCC 2019 Exclusives will be available on June 6th and 7th. For full details on that, check their SDCC 2019 Pre-Sales Page.

TMNT 1990 Movie "The Capture of Splinter" SDCC 2019 Exclusive Set by NECA
Oh come on...and here I was thinking I was done stressing over Neca's exclusives after last year's coronary...
Watch this one be the one they DON'T re-release. Gonna have to make sure the defibrillator is charged come early June...
My chest hurts already. I can’t do this again.
Well, even if GS doesn't do another exclusive run of these, Shredder and Splinter should be easier to find (compared to the Foot Soldiers) on the aftermarket considering folks will buy multiple sets to army build
Didn't Randy say that they would be bringing the Foot Ninja and Shredder to Gamestop like the single pack Turtles?
I'll definitely try for this set but my main priority will be the Batman/Alien set.
Thankfully I have Wednesday’s off. I’ll get this. I’ve got all the other sets.
It might take some time (given how long apart the SDCC set and GS turtles were released) but with the overall demand and sales of the GS turtles I would imagine that they would work with NECA to do it again for this set. I imagine that like the turtles they would overall have less accessories and that those would be divided among the figures.
I honestly was just expecting like a video game colored Bebop and Rocksteady set for SDCC so this is a pretty cool reveal even though I don't have interest in getting it as an exclusive set.
Very happy to see them making Splinter for the 1990 line. Now we just need to get April and Casey Jones for the movie line, and Splinter, April, and Casey Jones for the cartoon line too.
I knew they would do a 6 inch Shredder figure. Eh, I'm not going through the crap I tried going through to get the six turtles figures when they ended up being sold individually at GameStop which I was able to get them then. So I'll just wait for them to release just the Shredder figure by himself.
STOP NECA!! I DONT HAVE THE MOTHER %@^#*$ MONEY FOR EVERYTHING AT ONCE!
I can be patient but I cant get everything at one time! Batman & Alien, Turtle set, Bebop & Rocksteady, video game sets that have not been announced yet, Batman and Predator, Superman and Alien. They have to stop or I cant even keep up. I guess I could scale the dogs food back to half of his normal portion, I will only eat one time a day until SDCC, .....
Sacrifices.
I keep seeing mention in this thread of the Batman and Superman 2-packs as SDCC exclusives too. Where has that been revealed, because Toyark and a couple other major toy sites haven't posted anything about it yet and there's no mention of it on NECA's SDCC page yet either.
Here's Shartimusprime's interview with Randy at NYTF 2019. They start talking about DC around 6:00. Randy doesn't mention specifically which packs will come out but he does mention that they are Con exclusives.

Very nice set. Guess I’ll have to wait a year+ for the KO to come out as there won’t be any other way I’ll get ahold of these.
I must have missed that. As for Rocksteady and Bebop, I thought those were slated for retail release as another Target exclusive later this summer or fall, pending how well the first TMNT packs sold at Target (which seems to have been a success). So now there's belief that these are going to be a con exclusive instead??

You can see a Hal out of focus, in-between the two prototype Blade Runner 2049 figures.
*Edit*
I re-read your question and realized what you were asking.
I'd like to think that this is gonna hit mass retail like the previous Turtle SDCC sets have, but with the amount of backlash NECA received with the Gamestop Movie Turtles (in which many collectors were pissed having gone through the trouble of the SDCC debacle, only to have NECA turn around and announce they were hitting mass retail just a few months later...) I could very easily hear NECA saying in my head "nope...SDCC WILL be the only way to get them this time around..."
Hopefully they rectify this by at least producing some more of these sets this time around, while finding a way to effectively cap the amount scalpers can buy....cause I can see these disappearing in less than two minutes yet again the way the last movie Turtles set did.
If that Hal comes with a set of constructs, I'll never buy a Mattel or DC Collectibles GL again. Fingers crossed.

I know NECA tries to curtail scalping, but a comic shop near me has its entire staff get on and use their own cards to order as many exclusives as they can, then they flip 'em at the store >
