A Haunting Tribute to Fallen Heroes
NECA’s TMNT Ghost Brothers 7-inch action figure 3-pack is a tribute to the emotional journey from the comic Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Last Ronin. This stunning set features translucent figures of Leonardo, Donatello, and Raphael, embodying their spectral forms as they guide the lone surviving Turtle on his quest for justice.
The use of translucent plastic is beautifully executed, giving the figures an ethereal glow. Each figure is equipped with iconic weapons—Leonardo’s katanas, Donatello’s bo staff, and Raphael’s sais—faithfully crafted to reflect the characters’ legacy.

Articulation and Display
Standing at 7 inches, the TMNT Ghost Brothers figures boast a range of articulation that allows for dynamic posing. Whether you’re recreating an emotional scene from The Last Ronin or displaying them in action stances, these figures don’t disappoint.
The collector-friendly packaging is another highlight. With custom artwork and an opening flap, it’s perfect for those who value presentation as much as the product itself.

As someone who’s no stranger to toy restoration, I can attest to the challenges of working with translucent materials. NECA, however, has nailed it. The figures are sturdy, with joints that move smoothly and materials that feel durable. The attention to detail, from sculpting to paint application, is impressive.
These figures pair wonderfully with NECA’s other The Last Ronin releases. I’d also recommend taking a look at my review of the quirky yet eerie Glow-in-the-Dark Scratch the Cat—a figure that, like the Ghost Brothers, showcases NECA’s flair for the dramatic and unexpected.
The Last Ronin: A Dystopian Tale
If you’re unfamiliar with Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Last Ronin, it’s a five-issue comic series that takes the franchise in a darker, grittier direction. Set in a dystopian future, the story follows the last surviving Turtle as he seeks to avenge his fallen brothers and honour their legacy. The Ghost Brothers figures are a perfect encapsulation of the series’ poignant themes.
For TMNT fans, The Last Ronin by NECA figures are a tangible way to celebrate this impactful storyline.
