Are you ready for something cool this #TurtleTuesday? Today, we’re taking a look at the NECA Toys Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Oroku Saki!
This version of the Shredder is based on his look in a flashback scene during the 1990 TMNT live-action film. The figure was only available in the “Shadow Warriors” 2-pack with Hamato Yoshi.
While there have been a handful of figures released based on the live-action look for Shredder, this is the first time we get this version of Saki, who comes with a slightly different backstory than in the animated series.
The figure features a fully articulated sculpt and includes a pile of accessories. While some of the pieces included are geared towards Hamato Yoshi, most are interchangeable. These include a whole footlocker worth of weapons, including two axes, two bo staffs, a set of nightsticks/short club weapons, and a pair of nunchucks. The set also contains a pair of Splinter rats (one of which can attack Saki’s face), Splinter’s rat cage, a removable kimono with clothed arms, and a set of bare arms. Finally, this set is exclusive to this set and includes an additional Oroku Saki head, complete with bloody scratch marks from his first encounter with Splinter. Overall, it’s a fun set and a welcome addition to the TMNT 1990 display.
