NECA has shared final in-packaging photos for their second wave of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles – Turtles In Time 7″ Scale Figures. The figures are based on a mix of the Turtles in Time arcade game and the SNES port, which had some additional bosses and stages. Wave 2 includes Raphael, Michelangelo, Leatherhead, and Shredder. The assortment is scheduled to ship out to retailers on July 14th, and should be on shelves before the end of July. The first wave is in stores now. Check out details below, and photos after the jump.
Oh Goodie. Fresh turtles for lunch! From the classic 1990s Turtles in Time video game, we’re excited to offer the next line-up of 7″ scale action figures. Series 2 includes Michelangelo, Raphael, Leatherhead, and Super Shredder.
Michelangelo and Raphael come with their signature weapons and a brand new hoverboard with display stand that can be used for even more poses. Leatherhead is equipped with his throwing knife to keep the turtles at bay, while Shredder wields a beam sword and two different fire blast effects.
All feature special deco that recreates the pixilated look of the video game and come in individual window boxes with graphics from the original arcade cabinet.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles - Turtles In Time Wave 2 by NECA
Interesting.
Shredder blends into the background... Literally a game sprite
I like the look of this Shredder better than the first arcade version. Just preordered the wave at BBTS. I hope we get a 3rd wave with the Dimension X figures.
Gotta try and get the game Slash. NECA said on FB they will not be making that design in any other color scheme. Gonna have to repaint it.
Edit: maybe that meant that specific version? https://news.toyark.com/2019/06/23/q...nd-more-349687

I KNOW they aren't using the same mold. My issue is that Neca isn't giving the option of a non-pixelated version of the game mold. It looks AWESOME. The toon Slash looks derpy.
It's fine, I guess... I'll just have to customize it, if I decide to get it.
My issue is that it seems big bad toy store has this and only offers it in a 4-pack set with raph, Mikey, shredder and leatherhead. I already have the turtles and shredder set that came in the arcade exclusive box from sdcc. Now it’s almost forcing us to get them in a 4-pack and have extra figures that we don’t need. At least when arcade slash came out they gave us the option to buy him single pack as he was the new figure. I don’t like being penalized for already having something and forced to spend more money for no reason. I emailed bbts and they confirmed they would not break up the set and would only offer it in a 4-pack set with the turtles. Anyone found this somewhere else for a fair deal?
The turtles are slightly different (neck has pixelated lines and the back of the bandana is different), plus they come with the boards. If the foot soldier in wave 1 is any indication, the Shredder will be much different, too. Up until the actual in package shots, they were using the sdcc foot soldier for solicitations. The final figure has a much different paint job.
I’ve seen the different paint jobs the foot soldier is different in the eyes etc. my problem is more that we don’t get a choice to buy them single and bbts is essentially forcing us to buy a 4 pack which I don’t agree with. Shredder in the sdcc set was more like standard shredder in the game and the new one is the “super shredder” from the game which is the final shredder you fight before the end of the day so yes colors are different and he’s a bit more buff. But to me the turtles don’t warrant a second purchase and bbts and other specialty outlets should give us the option rather than trying to cash in on us because they know this wave is for specialty stores only.
Maybe a month later they broke up the 4 pack and offered each individually.
So there is a chance they get sold individually at some point.
Hmmm didn't know that but ya I'm holding strong and avoiding the 4-pack on principle. Is anyone else selling this though? This is supposed to be online/specialty vendors but BBTS seems to be the only one who carries it for pre-order right now.
Yep just placed my orders for super shredder and leatherhead today on megappolis. Happy they at least had them available in singles.

i'm confused by the leatherhead. why is his weapon pixelated in terms of the sculpt? none of the other figures in the line have pixelated weapons - and the characters themselves don't have pixelated sculpts either. it's so inconsistent.
the pixel paint deco on these is not appealing to me, but the thick, sloppy lines on the cartoon versions aren't appealing to me either. i guess i'll hold out for a third option for the repaints.
Neca’s Facebook page. Sorry I don’t have a direct link anymore, I canceled Facebook 2 months ago. But yeah, no repaint for game slash or toon slash. Each version will be 100% original One time use molds since they are so radically different from each other.
