Michelangelo as The Mummy is packaged in a window box with an opening flap, with nicely done artwork and images of the figure on the front, sides, and back. Inside, he comes packaged in a plastic tray along with his accessories, and the opening flap to the right has another image of him.
Michelangelo as The Mummy comes wrapped up in bandages that are given a light grey, a wash and given sculpted textures on the bandages, as it looks more realistic. The bandages cover most of the skin, but you also see the dark green poking through it along with areas that are not bandaged. He also includes a brown belt that is painted to look like leather, with pouches, symbols, and a gold belt buckle. The elbow and knee pads are also painted in the same dark brown with a wash. The shell on the back includes some hieroglyphs, which includes two different colored turtles, a foot, throwing stars and other symbols.
Both of his head sculpts look great, with one given a closed or mossing eye, and the other with two wide open eyes, and missing lips, showing his teeth. Both of these heads have an orange bandana with a black wash.
Included with Michelangelo are three sets of interchangeable hand sculpts, an alternate head, a set of nunchucks, a snake and two bandages.
The nunchucks are given chainlinks that are painted in a metallic gold with a wash, and dark brown handles. The snake is bendy, and you can plate it on the floor, or in his hand. The snake is painted in a light brown with dark brown stripes.
He is also fully articulated, and includes a ball jointed head, ball hinged shoulders, double-hinged-swivel biceps, ball jointed hips, double hinged-swivel knees, hinged and rocker ankles.
Overall, Michelangelo as The Mummy is a beautifully done figure, with bringing the best of both characters into this special offering. Make sure you’re picking up this line, as it’s surely something that both TMNT and horror fans will enjoy.
