If you’ve been hoping Playmates Toys would go “MOTU Origins” with classic Ninja Turtles, this might be the closest yet. Today I’m reviewing the 1988 Remastered TMNT 6-Pack—a Target release that revisits the four brothers with updated articulation and tweaks, plus Master Splinter and Shredder. The box art leans into vintage sewer-lair vibes, the figures scale right at ~4.5–5", and there are some legit improvements over the first “remaster” wave… alongside some frustrating QC and design choices.

What’s better?

Skin texture removed: the “froggy divots” are gone; surface looks closer to the vintage toys.

Head mix-up fixed: Leonardo and Donatello now have the proper sculpts that match the 1988 figures.

Skin tones: especially Raphael—finally closer to the OG shade instead of the minty green.

Michelangelo keeps the metal-chain nunchucks (chef’s kiss).

What still bugs me?

Ankles on the Turtles: still swivel-only—no hinges/rockers—so posing is limited.

QC gremlins: crooked Donatello mask bands; the Splinter tail was missing in my set.

Shredder: wonky proportions and a face that… has seen things. Soft-goods cape would’ve helped.

Missing extras: the rooftop stands and bonus weapons from the earlier remasters aren’t here.

Overall take: It’s so close to the line TMNT fans want—vintage character with modern flexibility—but we’re not quite there. If Playmates keeps listening (they clearly heard a lot already), wave 3+ could finally nail it. Imagine these improvements applied across Bebop, Rocksteady, Foot Soldiers, etc.—yes, please.

🔥 What you’ll see in this video

Full unbox and box art tour (sewer-lair packaging details are fun)

Articulation rundown and the ankle rant you knew was coming

Side-by-side comparisons with vintage Leo/Donnie/Mikey/Raph

Deep dive on Splinter (more animated-leaning design, great ankles… but where’s that TAIL?!)

Shredder: accessory loadout vs proportions critique

Final verdict: who should buy, who should skip, and what Playmates should fix next

👇 Drop your thoughts: Did Playmates fix enough? Which figure in the set is your MVP—and are you all-in if they follow with Bebop/Rocksteady?
