On this #TurtleTuesday, let’s take another trip through time with yet another NECA Toys Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Michelangelo!
This version of Mikey is based on his inclusion in the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles side-scrolling video game “Turtles in Time.” The game was first available as an arcade cabinet in 1991, before being ported to the Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES) the following year and re-branded as Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles IV: Turtles in Time. The pixelated deco again works well for Michelangelo and all of NECA’s action figures in a video game design. This version of the turtles all came in individual window boxes with artwork in the style of that Turtles in Time arcade cabinet.
For accessories, Mike includes his dual nunchaku bearing a simple paint job, a spinning nunchuck effect, alternate “thumbs-up” hands, and his hoverboard. The board looks great on the included clear stand, allowing the turtles to gain a bit of elevation in your display. This vehicle, for one, also looks very accurate to the design that is seen in this level, “Sewer Surfin,” as well as the futuristic (2020) level “Neon Night Riders.”
