From Playmates Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 1990 series toyline we have PANDACON. Alright so PANDACON never showed up in the animated series. He was one of those characters that only showed up in the I believe he only showed up in the cart or in the comic book. I think he came from the same world as Usagi Ojima but I could be wrong but I always liked this figure just a really cool design. Again I really like the Samurai Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle figures. I just really like the design of all their armor. It just it looks really amazing. Really like it. Of course one of the first things other than the weapons to get lost were usually the shoulder and thigh pads. They did oftentimes either break off or pop out and end up getting lost. Also a lot of times the tails on the bandanas would break off as well. The paint on this guy isn't too bad. I'm not sure if that spot on his nose is from where or if he was designed like that to make it look like a shiny nose. I can't remember. It's been a long time. I found this guy at Primary Colors Retro Relics in Lincoln Illinois. Same place I got my sewer Samurai Leonardo. PANDACON was always one of my favorite Ninja Turtles toys growing up and I saw him complete in a baggie with his accessories so I went ahead and bought him. Mick over there is great. He prices things out great fantastically. He couldn't be making more money off them but he just loves, loves dealing with collectors and they're not so overpriced that regular kids can't buy them and take them home and play with them either. They're actually priced pretty close to what their original price value was way back in the 90s and late 80s. As you can see very bright blue on his armor. Gold chainmail. Green pads on the side of his armor. Then he's got the green pants with blue pads. Red gauntlets and shin guards. Very nice figure. Now let's go ahead and take a look at PANDACON's weapons. First things first is his battle axe which he can be seen on the package. Getting ready to attack Shredder with. Very nice. You line it up just right there. The holes actually line up with his eyes. Which is pretty cool. I never really noticed before. They didn't, they didn't skimp on the detail either. You got wood grain on the handle. You got, you got the blacksmith marks on the inner part of the battle axe on both sides. Very nice. One problem with Ninja Turtles weapons is they usually warped very easily over time. Even just sitting in the package. They warped easily. Up next is, I can't remember what exactly this is called. I always thought it was kind of cool. Got kind of a knuckle guard there which can be used to defend against blade attacks as well. Or cut opponents with. Then you got this blade here with a hook on the end. Very nice. Again they did not skimp on the detail. You got the cloth wrapped around the handle there. Very nice. Then here you've got the sword. Kind of generic looking. I can't remember if this is the same style sword as Leonardo's or not. I think his was a little bit straighter. But I could be wrong. Then you got the cloth around the handle and you can see where it was disconnected from the little thing that they came attached to. They usually came attached together. Something kind of like this on a piece of plastic. Sheldon together. And these fit in his hands pretty decently. There's one put his sword in the other hand. I'm not sure why his finger is sticking out like that. I want you on Apollo Creed. I want you pump. I want you. But yeah they fit in his hand real tightly. Real nice. Even this one it's pretty tight. I'm not bad. I just wish he would have came with something to be able to put his sword into or one of his other weapons into since you know he can't hold all three at once. I hate just leaving one lying around you know. That's how it gets lost. I think we'll go ahead and display them like that from now on. At least for a while anyway.
