– Ends 4/19 at 12:00pm ETBased on the classic 1980s Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles cartoon series! Roaring straight out of the sewers and down the streets of New York City, it’s Donatello’s greatest invention: the Turtle Van! The Turtles will stomp the Foot flat with this mighty mobile command center, which measures approximately 14” long, 12” tall, and 8” wide. The Turtle Van features rotating roof cannons, hinged doors, rubber tires, opening shell roof, removable laser chair, Foot-tenderizing side doors, LED lights, and more! So packed with features, yet there’s still room for all four 7” scale NECA Turtles action figures (sold separately). Comes in classic collector friendly throwback packaging!

NECA TMNT Party Wagon Teaser
I hope they reveal it soon. I can't wait.
Wonder how many people will buy this AND the Super7 version
Probably at least $200.
Shame the retro one doesn't fit the figures.
I am thinking at least 400.
OOOOOOooolalala. I'm guessing $175 van only, maybe a couple accessories. An additional accessory set to fill it out will be $100.
I'm liking the colors and the shape a lot!
NECA vs S7....
TMNT party wagon's....
Epic ;^)
Why I'm thinking $400. Based on what everyone else is charging, rising labor, moving parts, size, molds, electronics, inflation, shipping, lack of physical retailers... it's not costing less than $200 and probably be more than $300.
Vehicles were on average costing historically around 5 times the price of a figure. Super7 at $50 per regular released figures priced their Party Wagon at 9 times the figure price ($450). If NECA does the same and if looked at the price of $27.50 per regular released figures ($55 per 2-pack), the NECA Party Wagon should cost around $250, with inflation and all that absolutely no more than $300.
The 3P Comic Van is $276.99 and is another option competing with a Comic display while the Super7 Van is a reimagined Playmates Toys version.
I would love for it to be under 300. Being realistic.
Be prepared for the 300 to 400 price ranger imo.
Still have my playmates classic one and it looks nice in the background, and need and updated one on scale.
The last set of reissue turtles was $150 and had minimal accessories. I think this will be $300 minimum and all up front. I can't imagine Target actually carrying these.
There's no way it can be a Target exclusive, right?
Target was reluctant to put the $300 TVC Falcon on the actual store shelves. No way they'd put a $300-400 Turtle Van on their shelves.
Are we doing Price Is Right?
I guess $1!
Lot of speculation about the price, but we all know when it comes down to it that it'll sell like hotcakes, 'cus there's a whole subset of Shellheads who gotta collect EVERYTHING haha
I don't collect everything, but I am in very deep on NECAs cartoon turtle line. I have passed on that cheap little playmates van and the super expensive Super 7 so hopefully NECA will be just right.
They also implied the sewer set should be coming and hopefully fits under their existing street diorama.
$250 confirmed.

TMNT Cartoon Series Turtle Van by NECA - The Toyark - News
Scalpers are going to make that toy vehicle more expensive than a real car.
Every release that isn't Ultimate April (with a normal-sized head) causes me to die a little more inside.
Very surprised by the price. And also very happy.
I might be in on this thanks to the price. Lowest cost of the 3 not including shipping and tax.
Awesome to see the price as my estimate and that the price didn't exceed 10x the price of a figure! The 4-pack at Target was a special Haulathon Target exclusive, I highly doubt the regular price has increased to $37.50 a toon figure already. $250 is still a lot of money but to be fair compared to Super7 which is double the money and the 3rd party toon version it's reasonable in this day and age (which is a sad thing). Super7 isn't fully competing as their version is a Reimagined Playmates Toys version for 7" and NECAs is the toon version for 6".
For me personally, I have to say Way to go NECA, This NECA Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Party Wagon wins for me out of the 3 releases for larger scale modern TMNT. It will proudly be displayed. This Party Wagon hits ALL my boxes!
I always wanted a closer to toon Party Wagon which the Playmates version was lacking (as usual with most toyline vehicles).
Opening front AND rear doors, opening side door with ramp on the driver's side (for machinery like the retromutagen catapult), opening side door with gun on passengers side, opening rooftop, computers in the rear. Totally radical like we see in the Fred Wolf Toon!
Either way, I was waiting for this and even though the price is what I expected it's still a lot. Would be nice to have a size comparison shot with those 3 and the original from playmates, let alone just having them displayed on a shelf together.
