The first of two box sets will feature the franchise's classic heroes: Michelangelo, Donatello, Leonardo and Raphael in the image of their in-game, pixelated appearance.
The second box set will feature a line up of in-game villains as seen in the classic arcade game from Konami, including Foot Clad ninjas and the evil Shredder himself.
Sticking with the arcade theme, the boxes for each set perfectly recreate the game's character select screen and even includes a fold-down piece that mimics an actual arcade cabinet. Fake buttons, joysticks and even a "how to play" are all featured on the fold-down cover. It's less a box and more a Turtley Awesome display case.
Below are NECA's official product descriptions for both box set:
