I was one of a rare group of people to both see Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out Of The Shadows in the cinema & enjoy it. The upside to liking a movie that bombed is that its merchandise gets discounted sooner!

I took advantage of the franchise’s misfortune to acquire the giant-size Rocksteady & Bebop for a quarter off at Toys R Us! Then I had to repaint them because Playmates barely put any effort into it, especially on Bebop. Much like its Classics Bebop (which I also customized & should eventually show you), the movie Bebops are inexplicably whitewashed. Rocksteady includes the Neegan-style club wrapped in barbed wire & festooned with nails, except it’s been toned down for safety so it looks like it’s wrapped in a rosary. They should’ve given him the sledgehammer instead. Neither was born with fingernails. Much research was put into them looking more like their cinematic doppelgangers. More on my signature blog.

I've started doing this with the six inchers but jeeez now I'm skeptical that I could do even a portion of your quality.

Those look great, especially the plumbers crack on the rhino. Your detailing is amazing!

Thank you very much.

Nah my point is that my skillz (yes, with a z) are nowhere near that level and I am humbled in comparison.

The smaller toys may be easier to repaint. There's less area to cover & many details will be too tiny to make out so you won't need to bother with them. Don't give up!
