TMNT Mutant Mayhem Astronaut Raph


I've passed on this figure more than once, but was having so much fun with TMNT, that I finally picked up the Mutant Mayhem Series Astronaut Raph. Not sure this space faring scenario occurred in Mutant Mayhem, but there was an astronaut themed turtle figure in the original line, which ballooned in scope due to its ridiculously over-the-top variant turtle figures. 


I was mildly disappointed the chest circuitry was a sticker as opposed to a tampograph, but I do like that the dome can be removed to articulate the neck- very cool. This figure has good articulation, knees and elbows included, but I wish we had some stowage options for the weapons.


There's no real gap between Astronaut Raph's digits, so he can't grip his sai the same way my Mutant Mayhem Raphael can, Again, some sheaths for these would be nice, but Playmates did paint the handles.

My Loyal Subjects BST AXN Android Body Krang would be a perfect figure for Astronaut Raph to battle- he might use his laser blaster arms to attack our plucky hero! I've had more fun all the time pitting this extra-large figure against others in my collection- so absurd, so fun! 



I had fun playing with Astronaut Raph- he's just a fun variant turtle to have among the ranks here in the Super-DuperToyBox. On the lookout for the Playmates Donatello as Dr. Spock now but may missed prime peg time awhile back on that, being late for the dance as it were.

More Later- Make It FUN!
