NECA have been banging out figures based on Last Ronin comic books for a while now, Im sure a single alternative universe comic book has never before generated so many toys. I’m not complaining, I love that book and its spin offs. Here we have a set that doesnt have a full figure, mainly just an assortment of fairly random accessories.
I was planning to review this but Its a bit of an odd thing to write about. Instead I decided just to use photos of some of my favourite items inphotos with some of my other TMNT Last Ronin figures. I’ll talk a bit about my thoughts on it though
Product Description
Add to your TMNT collection and build amazing scenes with this deluxe accessory set from NECA, featuring several scene-specific items and more from the best-selling comic book! There are endless world building possibilities with the Bleecker and Sullivan Street sign; plus, the security camera plugs into NECA’s Street Scene Diorama
What’s in the box?
The accessories include range from tiny grenades to an almost complete figure. Here is a quick look at the box and what is inside.
The offcial description describes the following contents:
Street sign, Head for The Last Ronin, Head for Synja Officer, Battle-damaged Patrol Bot head, Tactitcal vest for Synja Patrol Bot, Battle-damaged Fugitoid figure, Energy effects, Smoke Cloud, 3 Smoke bombs, Splinter’s diary, Hiroto hologram, Security camera, Sword, Manhole cover, 2 Bots.
Photos
The street sign is one of the items that really sold me on this set.
The street sign is used again here as a foreground element for a picture of the damaged Fugitoid. Professor Honeycutt, to use his original name, is the other main reason I bought this set. He comes with an arm missing (though a broken arm is one of the other items but it cannot be attached) but aside from that he is a complete figure, albeit not a fantastically articulated one.
The Ronins’ heavily plastered head is up next. I already have 2 variants of this figure that came with a variety of head sculpts, but it’s nice to add this one.
I have several Synja Patrol bots so I was quite excited to get the items that come in this package to help me make them all a little more unique.
There are also a few weapons or weapon enhancements. A stick of dynamite and some energy effects for existing truncheons are seen here.
Sometimes though its the small, non action oriented items that are most useful for doing something different with photos. Like this diary.
Mousers have been a staple enemy for the Turtles for a long time and they get in on the action during Last Ronin too. I’ve picked up a few different types that came with other figures, but this set comes with 2 dog/cat like versions. They are well sculpted and painted as many of the items in the pack and (and the whole NECA Last Ronin line). They have zero articulation though.
Last up we have the TCRI cannister and a villainous hologram.
Final Thoughts
It goes without saying that unless you have a handful of Last Ronin Figures this pack would be largely useless. Yes some accessories are fairly generic but theres a bunch here just for a Synja patrol bots. But if like me you have a lot of figures from this line then I think you will like it.
Some items are a little odd, the huge sword that appears in the series, the figure that wields it has not been released to my knowledge. And the manhole cover to me doesn’t really look quite right.
Aside from those quibbles I really enjoyed messing with this set.
