TMNT Krang Android Body and Mondo Gecko Previews by NECA

Can't wait for Super7 to make the superior versions.
And we're reaching the point where the toon Turtles are becoming less appealing to me. I dig Krang's android body, but that's not Mondo Gecko to me. I absolutely loved the original Playmates figure, so I'll wait for Super7's version to come out.
When will people stop comparing these to the Super7 stuff? They are two separate styles. They are not meant to be compared. NECA is making screen accurate figures based entirely off the cartoon show. Super7 is making figures based off of the original figure line with more detail and articulation. It's apples and oranges. Neither is better, it just depends on what you are looking for.
Personally, I want toon accurate stuff because we never got that before. I appreciate the Super7 stuff for what it is, but even as a kid I wanted toon accuracy.
Can't wait for that Android! Gonna have to find a new shelf for the turtles though- that guy is huge!
The stress isn't worth it. I'll wait for Super7.
Mondo Gecko? Really? wow. Didn't even think Mondo was a popular character. I don't really remember him in the 80's cartoon, and only remember seeing him in the Archie comics with ManRay or whatever..
Order I was expecting: General Tragg & Rock Soldier. Splinter & Granitor. Baxterfly, Mouser, & Roadkill Rodney (because they all are so tiny). Then Rat King deluxe with Footski, Meatball monster two pack.
Those were my guesses just because they could redeco them easily for both the game line and cartoon line.
Casey, Slash, and Mondo being three single use molds in a row seems surprising.
I never really liked the Playmate toys so the Super7 stuff does nothing for me- on the other hand I really hated the design of the toon turtles (I was always a comic fan) so I really like the toon supporting cast figures- which tend to look very comic-like -but I want nothing to do with the toon turtles themselves... lol.
Cool. More Neca TMNT that no one can find.
Also, people can say they that the Neca & S7 stuff shouldn’t be compared (yes, I understand it’s different lines/aesthetics) but there is a HUGE point of comparison...and that’s availability/distribution.
Neca? Myself, my dad and many of my friends have been religiously hunting the new target & Walmart TMNT releases. Result? Nothing to show for it. Also, let’s not even talk about last weeks TMNT releases on Neca’s site and Targets site...
Super 7? They throw up a preorder and...wait for it...you just order it. Done. Period.
I want to give both companies my hard earned money for their TMNT product but one company wants me to jump through hurdles and obstacles to give them my money and one company is making it super easy and painless.
I wonder which one I should support 🤔
I have seen posts from Joe Moore, Robo from Fwoosh and Jay C, all guys who maintain/run massive toy sites, all say the same thing, which is (I’m paraphrasing) “ I sure would love to be able to collect the Neca TMNT line but since I can never find any of their product, I guess I’m going to have to check out of collecting it, it’s just too much of a hassle”
THAT is the PR that Neca has given themselves. Great job Neca...great job.

Agreed. Trying to land some of these TMNT figs has been such an uphill battle. If Krang isn't an easy pickup I'm afraid that I will have to Not Even Collect Anymore of the turtle figs.
The ONLY reason to compare Super7 and NECA is in regards to distribution, in which case Super7 has it all over NECA (and yes, I understand the hurdles NECA has to clear to get these into stores!)

Edit: was thinking Playmates instead of super7
I really have to wonder why it’s so hard for NECA to get the release right on anything TMNT related. I understand licensing restrictions to a degree, but a lot of times they have inconsistent messaging.
First they’ll say they can’t sell toon or movie stuff directly and that it can only be bought online or in store at Target and Walmart only to say never mind we can sell directly from our website, and then between high demand, scalpers, bots and broken checkout buttons, you can’t get the figures you want anyway without being lucky enough to walk into your store before the next desperate collector.
Obviously they aren’t limited to productions runs since this is the Turtle’s third time being released for the cartoon and movie stuff and we know NECA can somehow magically decide when to release this directly via their web store. They say they have their hands tied, but I think there’s more to the story I just don’t know what that “more” is.
I find it hard to believe that they couldn’t just sell these directly via their Ebay or Amazon stores (even though shipping is a ripoff) like they do their other products and they could probably monitor bots and scalpers much easier that way too.
Like many here, I think NECA’s stuff is incredible this reveal included, but it’s hard to get excited with so many issues.
Totally agree that it's hard to get excited for new product that is almost impossible to find. Fortunate to get a toon sdcc set which sparked the fever. Missed out on the movie sdcc set of the turtles to later get the 4 from GameStop which has been the easiest preorder of any tmnt NECA acquisition. The line is exciting but like so many others have stated about to bow out due to availability and other licenses that I like to collect. There has been way too much product out there as of late and prices just keep going up just not my salary to keep up.
My target neca section hasnt even been zoned in 3 weeks. The same items just dropped haphazardly in the very empty tmnt spot. I highly doubt they have been stocked and sold and then the same random item redeposited lol. I dont consider casey important enough to ruin my collection without him but at a certain pointin the very near future I simply wont be able to justify the headache and wallet ache to continue trying to support this line. Until the scalpers stop making money on these figures, I have to resign myself to another prematurely ended collection
It’s even worse when those who typically are the first to defend Randy/ NECA are doing so less and less or in some cases criticizing them because how botched this situation has become.
It’s a shame too because the figures really are great. I’m not out of the line and I don’t think I ever will be, but man does NECA make this love of collecting really stink sometimes.
There was a seller on eBay that had sold 13 Casey&Foot packs and they had 3 left. There was an option to buy 3, 2, or 1...
I messaged a guy who had 4 for sale. He claimed to have gotten them all online, even though, he had the product ready to be shipped.
One of the most exciting parts of this toy line was the $25 price tag. It would be like the TMNT version of Marvel Legends. A figure line that is super fun and cost effective. Pushing the longevity of the toy line for a long time.
6 figures for $150 makes it somewhat feasible to collect on a casual level.
Should they be revealing less at this point and manufacturing more? How does moving forward with adding more figures into production help the current problems?
This kind of pushing forward makes me think the problems aren't going to get better and if you really want these figs eBay is the only option. This toy line is going to come and go. At the end the companies will be saying they did the best they could and that's that.
I'm pretty sure they are happy the prices are so high on the aftermarket because from a distance it makes them look very successful.
