Mint Condition CustomsFirst of all, I'd like to say that the NECA TMNT figures are easily the best Turtles figures I've ever seen. They're so awesome. I'll be reviewing them as a whole today, instead of just the Leonardo figure. Now onto picking them apart(critically, not literally).
SCULPT - ***** (out of 5)
The sculpt on this figure is amazing. The likeness to the original comics is uncanny, and I love the different plastics they used to complete the figure. The body (arms, legs, head) are of the normal plastic we'd expect a figure to be made of, but his chest is made of a very soft flexible plastic to keep from preventing his poseability. And the shell is made from a very hard and durable plastic which makes perfect sense considering he's...well, a turtle. I love it. And each head is sculpted differently...[

Mint Condition CustomsSculpt - *** 1/2 (out of 5)
This is the first thing I'd like to touch on. I really love the sculpt for this figure. The large, hulking brute that it makes Marv out to be really reflects the look and feel of his comic book counterpart. The size, the proportion, and the wrinkles in his face do well to depict Marv. Even the coat (which I'll touch on more later) is perfectly sculpted to show Frank Miller's art style. My only problem with the figure is the height. He stand roughly 7" tall, but to be honest I expected him to be even bigger than that. Fans of the comic book series will know that Marv is HUGE. So I expected the figure to be just a tad big taller than that. And there's also a hole in Marv's back and in his coat. I'm not exactly sure why, but I think it's for the Marvel Legends...[
