Back in June 2013 we were invited to the launch of the brand new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (TMNT) and Isaac was hooked immediately.
We have been steadily collecting figures ever since and Isaac has quite a good collection of TMNT toys. With the exception of LEGO it is also the one toy that his big brothers don’t mind playing with too.
I have been looking after Isaac’s best friend Alfie this week and they both decided to have a TMNT training session.
We were sent Powersound FX Leonardo and Leonardo Ninja Combat Gear to review.
The Leonardo set includes the Turtle’s authentic noise-making ninja weapon (Katana Sword), signature bandana and two throwing stars that will help transform you into your very own hero in a half shell. Isaac loves this set and has great fun acting out his favourite moves from the cartoon. We have had to put rules in place not to throw the stars as Eliza did become target practice at one point and they are made from quite a hard plastic.
Powersound FX Leonardo is to able deliver battle phrases with awesome sound effects, coming to life like never before! The figure stands 5.5 inches tall and features a patented wire coil activation system in the arms and legs that triggers heroic battle phrases. Simply pull back and hold the activation limb to hear reverberated phrases such as ‘I’m invincible!’ and ‘Hiiiiiiii-yaa!’
The boys both loved this feature, although I have to admit from a parents point of view it does get a bit annoying. When packing away make sure that it is at the top of the toy box too, as it is very sensitive and activates the sounds if another toy is lying on top of it. It has been known to spookily go off in the evening too!
If you have TMNT loving kids, they will love these toys!
Oh my goodness, the photos with the mask on – too cute! I totally feel your pain about noisy toys – looks like kids loved them though 🙂
I love the photos of your little boy, looks like he loved playing with the toys and his friend!
I remember my brothers loving the turtles 20 years ago!
OMG how super cute does he look in that?! We have been trying to get our son into TMNT for nostalgia reasons, however, he is having none of it!
I remember these being huge when I was about 7, how funny that they are back once again, looks like a super fun day!
These look like perfect toys for little boys – and I love the photo of your masked mini TMNT!
I did not think Ninja Turtles were cute till I saw the cute smiling face at the top of this post 🙂
he looks so cute. Not that he probably wants that reaction lol
Love his grinning face with the eye mask on! I didn’t realise there were “new” TMNT, so you learn a new thing every day!
Oh he looks so cute! x
OMG how cute does he look with the mask on. Those cheeks!
Oh my goodness Kara how adorable does Isaac look with that mask on?! We’ve not had TMNT in the house yet but this set looks like great fun 🙂
Awesome! he look so cute!
I can’t quite believe that TMNT are still around – they were popular when my brother was young, and he’s 25!
He is a very cute Ninja Turtle! Do they still say Cowabunga?
what a cheeky little grin he has!
My son loved these toys as we reviewed them too. Great for role playing fun!
I may have tried on one of those masks last week for my sons entertainment 😉 they are ace!
They look a LOT of fun. My youngest son would love the mask!
Do you think the cat would like this ?
My brother used to have all the turtles – and I used to steal them 😉
Isn’t it funny how these things come around again – like clothes/fashion?
Looks like they had loads of fun 🙂
The TMNT song was the first single my sister ever bought! It is amazing to think they have been around that long but the characters and stories are very strong so I am not surprised they have endured the passing of time.
I’m taking notes as I reckon my little boy will want one of these soon. Yours looks so adorable in his TMNT outfit!
Gorgeous photo! The masks are sooo cute 🙂 Love TMNT x
Aaaw love your photos x x
Cute pics. F has suddenly got into TMNT since he saw the cartoon on holidays. No doubt well be buying some action figure soon x
Oh, i love his cheeky grin!!!
