TOYFARCE REVIEWS:

NECA’S ULTIMATE APRIL O’NEIL

It’s Wednesday, you know what that means… ToyFarce reviews!

This week, we’re checking the Ultimate April O’Neil from the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 90’s movie by NECA! This figure was available for pre-order for a limited time on NECA’s website, and was hyped by actress Judith Hoag herself before that, in her “April’s Takeover” during the month of April, with some very cool vignettes letting us have a peek behind the curtains. There were 2 versions of the figure, a standard version (seen in this review) and a limited edition that came with an extra yellow jacket and press pass, signed by the actress. The limited one sold out in minutes.

Shipper goodness! (Was there really a person that had to write down *by hand* numbers on 33,000 boxes?)

April comes with an extra head, extra hands, a channel 3 microphone, her purse, a sai, a pile of pizza boxes and a stand. This figure is STUNNING. The likeness is insane, the hair is 100% 90’s, the outfit and accessories are great, this is a homerun for NECA.

WHAT ARE THOOOOOSE?!

Now, I guess I (knee)d to address the elephant in the room: the knees. It was such a jour(knee) to get that figure made, and most of it is amazing, except… those knees. We all wished this figure could be perfect, so we could all live in harmo(knee), but (knee)dless to say, it came up short only because of those knees... It’s actually the only issue with the figure. Between the Sentinel and that, September has officially been the “BOTCHED-KNEES MONTH”. (I wanted to make more leg jokes, but they’re a bit cor-knee).

The LootCrate exclusive Danny figure is on its way, even though there has been no updates on the tracking number for 2 weeks (RR Donnelley, anyone?).
