NECA’s Archie line is becoming my favorite of their many. San Diego Comic Con didn’t have a ton to show, but what it did was pretty cool. I am all about that Mondo and the wrestling turtles are must-buys. I figured I’d test out the upload function by posting an image Tom (@zelu1984) shared on Twitter of his working sculpt for the figure. I hope all of the accessories make it into the final figure.
WRESTLING TURTLES!!
I haven't found the current Mirage Turtles but seeing the wrestling turtles made me decide to get those instead.
I’ve wanted that black-suited Raph since I was a wee little boy. He’s gonna look so good with his brothers when that day comes. Now to ponder customizing a wrestling ring…
Think the wrestlers will be released as a 4pk or 2pks or individually?
Bellybomb with a movable frickin eye...man, I hope I survive the length & breadth of this line, and I hope they go long & broad.
I wonder why they didn't show off their Turtle April that we already know is coming?
I know the body type won't be entirely right, but I plan on grabbing two so I can customize one into Venus.
Gotta save something for New York Comic Con. Based on the one image we did see, I'm guessing the turtle April is on the same buck as the wrestling ones. At the time they showed it off they could say it was an all new sculpt because they hadn't shown these other figures.
Bellybomb and Mondo Gecko are looking good!
How long until Armaggon?
This line seems more edgey than the Cartoon line.
With the wrestling TMNT on the way I hope future versions aren't far behind. The wrestling costumes were cool but the future looks are the ones I've wanted since being a kid.
I don't think there's a Mirage thread anymore? Uh, but that Target exclusive red shirt Casey is showing up:

As expected, looks like he'll be part of the Geek-Out NECA drop on Friday.
Found Casey and the other new NECA figures at Target today
