In entries #720 and #721 we presented Raphael vs. Bebop and Michelangelo vs. Foot Soldier respectively. This time, I bring Leonardo vs. Shredder.
There are so many resources online about TMNT, that I won’t be writing anything about the characters or the toys. Leonardo is considered the leader of the turtles and Shredder is the leader of the foot clan, so this is the big battle among the first series by Playmates from 1988.
I have some pictures I took close to my home and I hope you like them.
Shredder came with a piece of cloth that is very interesting. I don't like that the figure comes in an strange position that is not very playable. I have heard that this was imposed by the toy manufacturer, as the villain could not be much taller than the turtles themselves for practical reasons (it had to use the same vehicles).
Nothing to say about Leonardo… great figure and accessories.
I have two of these, I kept the second one as it was different from the first. Please observe carefully the pictures to see the differences. Any idea, which one is which? maybe some re-release?

Buenísimas fotos y figuras, esa tubería es el escenario perfecto. Tengo unos pequeños items no identificados que podrian ser de las tortugas ninja o similar. Te envié un email.
ReplyDelete!Gracias! Mándame las fotos que sean, yo te identifico las piezas. Para mí ese juego de identificación es como para otra persona un sudoku.
DeleteCoincido con que el escenario que les has buscado les viene que ni hecho a medida. Parece que están combatiendo en las alcantarillas de la ciudad. ¿Es una acequia de riego?
ReplyDeleteMe alegro de que te guste, es la típica piedra de desagüe que se coloca al final de un tubo pero ya no está cubierta. Es un sistema que recoge agua de lluvia y lo lleva a un riachuelo cercano. En ese río he hecho cientos de fotos para el blog, apenas a un par de minutos de casa. ¡Gracias por el comentario!
