I love the 12” bay turtles, but the size is too prohibiting for me. I collect 7” action figures. Big stuff I leave for transformers.

While I will be the first to admit that the Michael Bay PRODUCED films weren't great (I feel it's important to remember this,...he did NOT direct them, therefore does not deserve all of the blame,) I will also admit that Out Of The Shadows was a much better film than the first one. Bebop and Rocksteady stole every scene that they were in, Kraang was pretty well done, and the movie was a fun one, wiping a lot of the bad after-taste that was left from the first film, which was a complete mess.

That said, while I didn't care much for the "Iron Shredder" as people like to refer to him, I wouldn't say no to a NECA version of Brian Tee's Shredder from the TMNT:OOTS. I liked the sleek design and the retracting blades, and thought it was a neat look overall.

I don't own any of the 1/4 scale figure Turtles, but that Shredder will be a day one preorder/purchase for sure. I echo everyone else in saying that design was amazing, and as a kid, it made my eyes bug out of my skull just looking at it. It's still something I find myself in awe of. In an age where we are always griping and comparing the looks of our superheroes and villains on screen to the comic pages, Shredder was something magical that was practically done nearly thirty years ago, and was nearly perfect in translation. I'm really hoping we won't have to wait 10 years like we had to for the Mirage one, and they get us a properly scaled version to go along with recent SDCC 1/12 Turtles...
