With the 5th and final season of Stranger Things set to air on Netflix later this year, I thought it would be a good time to finally post this unique PlayMates figure from the (very random) Stranger Things vs Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles crossover toyline back in 2022. As far as I am aware, this combination of properties did not exist any any media outside of this toyline. But the figures are cool and it was nice to see a new company (besides McFarlane, Funko, and Bandai) try their hand at Stranger Things toys. It's also pretty cool that the Turtles are also in their early-80s comic design with matching red bandanas. This Eleven set is the only purchase I made. I find her design and construction to be pretty great. The other brands tried really hard to capture exact actor likenesses (and often fell short), but these figures are bright and vaguely animated and instead just capture the essence of the characters. I think the result is my favorite Eleven in my collection. Let's check her out below!
Eleven comes in her Season 4 design.
I honestly am having trouble remembering this season but will probably re-watch them all this Summer.
Eleven comes with a backpack, a walkie-talkie, a flashlight, and a walkman with earphones.
Also, Leonardo comes with an Eggo Waffle in the shape of a throwing star.
This is awesome, but too big for Eleven to hold.
Time for some Group and Comparison Pics!
Here is Eleven with her pack-mate, Leonardo.
Cheers!
