Looks like a movie April O'Neil is going to be announced/revealed at 1:30 PM EST. Judith Hoag is taking over the NECA Instagram then. My guess is that she will be part of a 2-pack with an unmasked Casey Jones.
EDIT: April O’Neil Figure from the TMNT 1990 Movie Announced

Interesting. I hope it’s made to order on the neca site.

I honestly can't believe how well (Walmart distribution aside) this line is going! Two years ago at SDCC I was lucky to get a set and was going to be happy if that was it. Never thought we'd get these two, if that's what's happening, that'd be just fantastic.

Apparently the April news happened/is happening on Instagram live. I don't have an IG account, so will share info when they post up the details.
EDIT: Apparently just a confirmation that a figure is in the works and will be a pre-order item like Tokka and Rahzar. Not pics, still being worked on by NECA sculptors.

Judith seemed genuinely endearing and enthusiastic. She plans on documenting the entire process with video and interviews of all the people behind the scenes who have a hand in making the figure. Pretty cool IMO. |

Quoting the instagram post:
The deal got sealed when #necaofficial explained their new way of handling internet bots and agreed to a presale for my fans so you get the first shot at the new#og #apriloneil #actionfigure (details all about that soon!) AND - said YES to letting me take you w/me to shoot as a series - which means you get to go inside NECA and see how an action figure goes from A-Z and I’ll be your host! Trust me-I’ll be #fangirling right along with you! |

But what April outfit for her figure???? I kind of want the outfit from the subway scene. Or the Foot Attack at the Apartment scene??? We could get the bright vest w/skirt from the movie promo stuff?? If they do Farmhouse April she needs 2 heads, hair up , hair down. Either way she needs to come with removable plastic yellow raincoat.

My guess would be for the early movie appearance with the yellow jacket since that is obviously the movie's shout-out to the iconic yellow jumpsuit.

Well there's always a chance they'll do more than one figure with different outfits. Pretty cool it's going to be a little video series too.

To me Paige Turco will always be live action April O'Neil.

This is a hilarious announcement, mainly because someone here (I forget who) just announced that they were officially done with NECA's TMNT figures due to ordering issues and the fact that there was zero chance they would ever be making a movie April O'Neil figure.

So 50 dollars for 25 dollar figure. Shipping is a killer from Neca. Not their fault but still.
Yes yeah.... but ebay... |

I reckon this YouTube series might be a stipulation she required in order to condone Neca using her likeness. That’s a good move.

In the words of Michaelangelo, “She’s a babe!”. I had a huge crush on Judith Hoag as a kid. She was my April but Turco was my brother’s. Hopefully she’ll be sporting her vinyl yellow coat and single sai.

No thanks, much like Anna Paquin playing Rogue in X-Men, Judith Hoag did zero justice to April from the cartoon.

Looks awesome. I definitely won't pass on ordering this like I did Tokka and Razhar.
