NECA Mirage Comics line

[Misfit]

Still within your return window? $70 is rough. I only want the Shredder in this set so I've been waiting for it to hit a price that is essentially for one figure.

Not sure if it's regional, but I was able to place a pickup order for the Worms of Madness two-pack for $30 just now.

I didn't even realize this set was a thing, but I saw that deal this morning & couldn't resist. Threw in a marked down Classified Series set to get free shipping & my Shredder set got delivered same day! Overall, very cool set, but I wish they'd handle shoulder pads the same way Hasbro has been, so they could rotate out of the way with the arms

Sold out now so doesn’t matter.

On a different note, I finished the third Mirage compendium from IDW, which completes the first volume of the Mirage TMNT comics. I loved it! “City at War” was great. The art and storytelling came a long way from the first issues. I was surprised characters like Fugitoid, the Utroms, and Triceratons didn’t show up after the early stories, though.

Overall, I thought the first volume was really interesting stuff and very engaging because I couldn’t guess what would happen next.

As I mentioned in my earlier posts, I was pretty meh on the second volume, which was the guest era. There were some interesting “takes” on the Turtles from guest creators but most weren’t my thing.

I do have the Mirage volume two hardcover (not to be confused with the IDW compendium volume two) coming in a few days and “The Last Ronin.”

Not sure if there are plans for IDW to ever publish a collected edition of the Image stories.

I also saw IDW is publishing some massive softcover compendiums of their 2000s-era TMNT relaunch later this year. Not sure how all that fits in with Mirage continuity. My goal isn’t to like read every TMNT comic, but I would like to continue with the Mirage continuity.

As for the NECA line, I’m honestly not sure what else the could do from the books that’s a major character. I mean, yeah, there are lots of one-off characters they could do, but not sure what the demand would be for those.

IDW did release the Image stuff in a couple volumes they called Urban Legends.

Those upcoming compendium omit all the minis and one-shots of the IDW series. There are both HC and SC collections that include everything in reading order though. But they dont fit with Mirage continuity at all, it's a totally separate thing except in like a.multiverae sense.
