NECA's Incognito Michelangelo Figure: A Two-Year Wait for TMNT Deep Cuts
NECA just dropped details on its next deep-cut Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles figure: Incognito Michelangelo. This isn't just another Mikey; it's a nostalgic trip to the '87 cartoon's most outlandish disguises, a testament to NECA's commitment to obscure gags.
Standing at 7 inches, this cel-shaded collectible captures Michelangelo's undercover look. It comes complete with interchangeable heads for both Mikey and a surprisingly included Donatello, plus swappable hands, a bag of VHS tapes, and, of course, a slice of pizza. It joins a wild wave featuring Sailor Raphael, Tuxedo Leonardo, and Construction Worker Donatello, cementing NECA's trend of mining the cartoon's most unique character designs.
But here's the catch: pre-orders are live now via Target Geek Out for $37.99, but this Turtle won't hit shelves until July 2026. That's a serious test of patience for even the most dedicated collectors.

Catzye Take
What's truly wild here is that two-year wait time for a collectible figure. NECA's commitment to these deep-cut TMNT figures is undeniable, but fans are increasingly dealing with longer lead times across the industry. This trend is something collectors should watch closely.
