Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles are fictional turtles who were trained in the art of ninjutsu to be heroes by their rat sensei. It started off with comic books which were followed by cartoon series, films, toys and many more. TMNT is one of my childhood favourite cartoon series and over 20 years on, they are still going strong. Both of my children love them too.
We had recently reviewed the Turtles Flinger Donatello and Mutagen Ooze Leo which you can read and watch our video here.
Now we have received the battle shell series which are small figurines. We have Michelangelo and Shredder. They are suitable from 4 year and above.
Michelangelo
Michelangelo carries his ninja arsenals in his indestructible Battle Shell. If he meets any monsters, he is ready to pop open his protective shell for a weaponized surprize.
He is a 4.5 inch tall figurine comes with two Shuriken and Sickle & Chain neatly hidden in his shell. It is easy to open, clip back and store the secret weapons neatly. He also has two nunchucks which can be packed away neatly on the loop. His limbs are able to move 360 degree and his head too. This is a very well made figurine but it is let down by the nunchucks – you have to be very carefully to not bend or open it too far apart as it will snap.

Shredder
Shredder is the infamous leader of the Foot Clan. He is determined to get his revenge. He comes with a removable helmet that covers his deep scars from being burnt in a building after a brutal fight with the Turtles’ sensei, Splinter.
He is a 6 inch tall figurine which comes with ‘razor sharp’ armour and a cape made from soft rubbery material. His limbs are able to move 360 degree and his head too. The shoulder armour is able to flip up and down while the rest of the armour is fixed. The figurine is very well made with some really nice detail.
Mr K is totally in love with his baddies! But who will win? Well there’s only one way to find out, FIGHT! You can check out the latest TMNT character via Flair.
