<div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;" class="sharethis-inline-share-buttons" ></div><p>Usually, when talking about new high-end figures and toys, we&#8217;re talking about companies ever in search of the shiniest, fanciest, most never-before-seen kind of presentation. That&#8217;s all well and good, it leads to some pretty nutty <em><a href="https://bensbargains.com/thecheckout/awesomeness/new-stormtrooper-star-wars-figure-square-enix-isnt-laughing/">Star Wars</a> </em>and <em><a href="https://bensbargains.com/thecheckout/awesomeness/variant-batman-figure-absolutely-needs-movie/">Batman</a> </em>figures, but I&#8217;ve been enlightened to another way.</p>
<p><a href="https://mondotees.com/" target="_blank">Mondo</a>, a studio best known for its limited-edition screen printed posters, is beginning its foray into collectible toys in a way both simple and remarkable at the same time. They&#8217;re recreating classic images of well-known properties in the three-dimensional realm. Here&#8217;s Leonardo of the <em>Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles</em>.</p>
<p><a href="https://bensbargains.com/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/Leonardo-TMNT-Mondo-Figures.jpeg"><img decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-19654" src="https://bensbargains.com/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/Leonardo-TMNT-Mondo-Figures.jpeg" loading="lazy" alt="Mondo Leonardo TMNT Figure" width="683" height="1024" srcset="https://bensbargains.com/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/Leonardo-TMNT-Mondo-Figures.jpeg 683w, https://bensbargains.com/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/Leonardo-TMNT-Mondo-Figures-200x300.jpeg 200w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 683px) 100vw, 683px" /></a></p>
<p>The design is pulled from the original Eastman &amp; Lard Comic Book from the 1980s, <a href="https://mondotees.com/blogs/news/44726019-san-diego-comic-con-2015-sneak-peek" target="_blank">according to Mondo</a>. They&#8217;re debuting it at San Diego Comic Con 2015 (July 9-12) alongside parallels for the other three turtles.</p>
<p>Somehow, their original TMNT figure went back even further in time, when in 1982 the absolute first drawing of a Ninja Turtle went onto a napkin. Here&#8217;s <a href="https://mondotees.com/collections/toys/products/the-first-turtle-figure-deluxe-b-w-version?variant=1499337603" target="_blank">Mondo&#8217;s interpretation</a> of that:</p>
<p><a href="https://bensbargains.com/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/Mondo-Original-TMNT-Turtle.jpg"><img decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-19655" src="https://bensbargains.com/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/Mondo-Original-TMNT-Turtle.jpg" loading="lazy" alt="Mondo Original TMNT Figure" width="1024" height="978" srcset="https://bensbargains.com/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/Mondo-Original-TMNT-Turtle.jpg 1024w, https://bensbargains.com/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/Mondo-Original-TMNT-Turtle-300x287.jpg 300w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></a></p>
<p>It&#8217;s up for pre-order, itself and a colored version due out sometime in quarter four of 2015.</p>
<p>Also debuting for Mondo at San Diego Comic-Con 2015 is a <a href="https://mondotees.com/products/first-hellboy" target="_blank"><em>Hellboy </em>figure</a>, another drawn from an original image of its character.</p>
<p><a href="https://bensbargains.com/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/Mondo-Hellboy-Original-Figure.jpg"><img decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-19657" src="https://bensbargains.com/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/Mondo-Hellboy-Original-Figure.jpg" loading="lazy" alt="Mondo Hellboy Original Figure" width="683" height="1024" srcset="https://bensbargains.com/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/Mondo-Hellboy-Original-Figure.jpg 683w, https://bensbargains.com/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/Mondo-Hellboy-Original-Figure-200x300.jpg 200w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 683px) 100vw, 683px" /></a></p>
<p>If you consider yourself a true fan of a property, I can&#8217;t imagine something like this doesn&#8217;t immediately appeal to you. Mondo also has a couple of <a href="https://mondotees.com/collections/toys/products/the-iron-giant-deluxe-figure" target="_blank"><em>Iron Giant </em>figures</a> in its store, promoting the almost cruel idea that the company just might pick up that one niche property you love more than everybody else.</p>
<p>Finally, Mondo will debut a Godzilla figure based on the following poster at Comic-Con. <a href="https://bensbargains.com/thecheckout/features/shadows-jurassic-park-top-non-dinosaurs-big-screen/">I may have to sell a Kidney</a>.</p>
<p><a href="https://bensbargains.com/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/Godzilla-Poster.jpeg"><img decoding="async" class=" size-full wp-image-19653 aligncenter" src="https://bensbargains.com/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/Godzilla-Poster.jpeg" loading="lazy" alt="Godzilla Mondo Poster" width="467" height="700" srcset="https://bensbargains.com/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/Godzilla-Poster.jpeg 467w, https://bensbargains.com/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/Godzilla-Poster-200x300.jpeg 200w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 467px) 100vw, 467px" /></a></p>
<p>For everything about Mondo&#8217;s San Diego Comic-Con plans, here&#8217;s the <a href="https://mondotees.com/blogs/news/44726019-san-diego-comic-con-2015-sneak-peek">company&#8217;s own write-up</a>. And check back soon, because I&#8217;ll most likely write a 500-3000 word essay about the Godzilla figure when they finally put it on their website.</p>
