Jumping up this #TurtleTuesday, let’s have a look at another NECA Toys Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Professor Jordon Perry!
This Hazmat Jumpsuit version of Professor Perry is also based on his appearance in the 1991 film Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II: Secret of the Ooze. The figure arrived in a 2-pack, along with another Professor Perry in a lab coat (see last week’s post). The likeness in this version is just as accurate for actor David Warner as in the other figure, since the heads are fully swappable thanks to the removable hard hat.
Yes, this set does come with film-accurate accessories, including multiple canisters of ooze, an extra set of hands, a clipboard, two pairs of glasses, and a full set of lab equipment, including a computer, vials, and other test tubes. What this set is missing, however, is that even after 20+ years since the film, NECA forgot to include that giant mutated flower seen in the picture.
April O’Neil’s co-worker didn’t forget and snagged one for the Foot Clan. Fortunately, NECA packed in this correctly scaled prop with the Secret of the Ooze Ultimate Shredder. While I appreciated the inclusion of this version of Professor Perry, which is very detailed, down to his name and the information printed on his tiny ID card, the costume appeared in only two brief scenes. I would have much preferred NECA to take on the additional tooling and likeness rights for other SOTS characters like April, Chief Sterns, or a ninja rapping Vanilla Ice. 😎
