I dug up an old hill to die on with a new figure purchase 😅
I was born in '87, so I'm gonna guess my first introduction to the Turtles would have been the cartoon. But I LOVED the Archie comics first, of all the franchise. I only had two or three issues but I'd pore over them endlessly. And then, because life is what it is, as I got older I completely forgot that they even existed until the NECA Stump figures were released. Second I saw the Raphael it aaaaall came flooding back. I'm not mad about owning all four, but I wish they'd release a regular Archie look team for me to pose this guy with. I can honestly say, this is MY preferred look for the guy, and he'll probably only ever get one release, and I have it. And that's plenty fine by me 😎
But I will now have to pick up every Archie figure going
