For this #TurtleTuesday, we’re checking out one more NECA Toys Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Raphael!
This version of Raph is based on his look in the 1987 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles animated series. It’s also called “Baby Turtle” because NECA didn’t have a better name for these guys before they became teenagers. I’m not sure how Splinter acquired the baby-sized sai for Raphael’s training, but it’s probably better not to think about it. 😄
This younger version of the “cool but rude” turtle came in the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle Cartoon Accessory Set, along with fun items from multiple episodes of the show. The set included all four baby turtles with their tiny weapons, an extra head for Baxter Stockman, a baby pizza monster, the robot Mobile Armored Computerized Combatant (also known as Big Macc), a blowtorch, a painting of a piece of cheese, a pizza box, a personality modifying ray gun, Rocksteady’s helmet, the Star of Hoboken diamond, a tracking device, a turtle backpack, a TV, a VCR, some VHS tapes, and a video game console.
While the baby turtles were probably enough to sell on their own, I’m glad NECA included them and all these other add-ons for their cartoon series in one set. Cowabunga indeed!
