As we stated earlier, Mega Bloks is getting the licence for the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles sets starting in 2016.  You can read about that here.

Mega Bloks Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Comple Collection All Figures

In honor (or not so honor), I thought I would dig up all of my old Mega Bloks Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle Minifigrures and add them to the price guide.

In doing this, I realized that I am missing one variation of Donatello and as someone that does not like anything missing, this is going to keep me up at nights.  🙂  I am Going to have to scour eBay for this.

Mega Bloks released a handfull of sets back in early 2002 – 2005 that were really nice.  I grabbed these because Lego did not have any Turtle Minifigures and the heads fit pretty nicely.  You can see the full list of sets with a picture at the end of this article.

I went over all of the instructions again and listed out all of the figures in the price guide.  It appears that we have 13 instead of the original 8 that I thought that Mega Bloks made.  It appears that the foot soldier came in two varieties and that each of the turtles came with either a large or a small head.   Here are images of the figures.

The two different Leonardo’s

Notice the different sized heads.  It appears that Mega Bloks must have had two different factories with different molds at some point.  The size difference is pretty noticeable when the figures are side by side.  I would estimate that it is about 33% bigger.  I am not sure if this is a quality control issue, or a different series all together.

The two different Michelangelo’s

The two different Rafeal’s – The different head sizes are very obvious in these two pictures.  The large head variety looks pretty bad.

And the two different Donatello’s – I grabbed a screen shot from a video review of this set on You Tube.  I was a bit irritated to see that they had two variations of each of these.  I will need get this one.

Finally, we have Splinter and the Imperial Foot Soldier

The Imperial Foot Soldier is virtually impossible to find.  Additionally when I did find it, the set was going for over $100.  I believe that they only released this set in very limited numbers and that no one cared to save them.  I finally found one in an eBay auction of a bung of Turtle sets for $30 and I decided to pull the plug and get it.  But it took me over a year to find it.

I am not positive if the Imperial Foot Soldier in 1406 and 1407 are identical and I am not sure that I will ever know.  If anyone knows, please send me a note on the contact us form.

The sets listed below were just ok other than the combat Lair.  The combat Lair set was awesome and is still one of my favorite sets.  Additionally, the weapons that came with these figures were way better than the weapons that came with the Lego sets.  Now, with that said, the Lego figures as you would expect were of much better quality.  It was not even close.  They took the head design that Mega Bloks had and made it much better and cleaner.  It is also nicer to see the machine printed figures as I believe that the Mega Bloks ones are painted by hand or at least with a messy machine.
