A few more details about the 2025 MOTUxTMNT line from the Turtles Toy Panel today:
Line will called “Reptile Wars”, and they showed Raphael. Raphael seems to be vibing the Snake Armor He-Man look with a big ol capture claw.
Love the theming, but I think the Turtles are not as…dynamic? Themed?…as strong as the first year. Leo isn’t dramatically different, Donny has another armor thing going on, Mikey is wearing snakeskin armor, and Raph is a watered down Snake Armor He-Man. I think the Turtles in MOTU cosplay concept offered stronger theming than the new batch is providing. That’s not to say any of them are overtly “bad”, I just don’t feel the concepts are as tightly defined as we saw in 2024.
New batch of images, not only showing Raph, but good looks at the other figures due in the first half of next year.
