EXACTLY!

I've always felt Mezco figures were overpriced. I've never liked soft goods clothing on figures at this scale since it doesn't realistically scale well. Their products are basically overpriced MEGO figures with more articulation and better headsculpts, but that doesn't justify a Hot Toys level price for their figures. As others have mentioned, the NECA figures are quite acceptable already for this style/scale and at a fraction of the price Mezco wants. So far the only person I've seen online getting excited about these is Mad Hatter on his Youtube channel, but he'll pretty much buy anything TMNT.

On a related note, TNI reported the other day that the rumor of McFarlane having a TMNT license now may not be true and the site that initially reported it seems to have mistakenly attributed the wrong company to some upcoming toys for the new TMNT animated movie. That same site has already corrected their links so that it now attributes those same toys to Playmates instead.
