NECA is back with another impressive figure that captures the early work of Kevin Eastman and Peter Laird's Mirage Studios Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles comic. Their latest figures come from Issue #6 from 1986, as the Turtles find themselves away from New York and in their very first intergalactic adventure. After accidentally activating a transmat device, they soon find themselves on the planet D'Hoonib, where they encounter Fugitoid. Fugitoid has found himself on the run from the Triceraton Empire and the Federation, who want his knowledge of the transmat device. However, the TMNT team is soon captured by the Triceratons, an alien race that mimics a humanoid triceratops.
Before they know it, they are at the Triceraton homeworld, being forced into a brutal gladiatorial arena to fight for their lives. NECA now brings these deadly Tricerton Gladiators to life with comic-inspired deco, swappable hands, and plenty of weapons to get the job done. This figure is nicely crafted, and the TMNT intergalactic dinosaur story has always been a treat to see come to life. Pre-orders are already live for his cosmic dinosaur for a mighty $53.99, and he is set for a October 2024 release.
