Super7 Ultimates Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Mondo Gecko - 7" TMNT Action Figure with Accessories Classic Cartoon Collectibles and Retro Toys

This figure is soooo good! Originally I was not going to buy this as the promo photos looked bad to me. They made the sculpt look exaggerated in the wrong places, and the paint looked dull for some reason. I have the original one from my childhood by Playmates, which has a great sculpt, and promotional photos of this Ultimates one made it somehow look inferior. I ended up watching a youtube review since I love the character so much, just in case the photos were not acurate, and I am so glad I did!CONS! (I'll get this out of the way)1. I do not care about this, but since others may, I'll note it. He only comes with the skateboard, an alternate head, and some alternate hands. The original toy only came with a skateboard, so I'm not sure why people are complaining. If you expect a ton of accessories, then you may feel let down, for me this wasn't a issue at all.2. The tongue is super thin. This is a weird complaint, but I'm a sculptor and weird details will bother me sometimes. Real geckos (I actually breed geckos, so I see live ones every day), AND the original toy have thicker tongues, so this is just soemthign that bugs me. It should be bigger in proportion to his large head in my opinion.PROS!1. Awesome sculpt (other than the tongue), the sculpting details are deep and rich, and it looks like it may have been traditionally sculpted. I am not 100% sure if it was, but it looks like that which in my book is a good thing, as it makes him look and feel more organic like a living character. The size is awesome being larger than the original, but smaller than some of the other Ultimates.2. The paint job is fantastic! The eyes and a few other small details are coated with gloss, which I wish every toy company would do! This small little technique adds a lot of life to a figure. The artwork on his skateboard and shirt is also painted on, and not decals which is great, as those are my only gripes about the original toy.If you're on the fence, definitely check out a video review to really see the figure better, or trust what I described. His promo pics don't do him justice :).

Great figure. I just feel it's a little light on accessories especially compared to the rest of the wave. Maybe an extra fully painted skateboard would have really made the figure complete. Especially if it was a new 4 horsemen sculpt.
