Featuring Raphael’s classic red bandana, original soft rubber head sculpt, and authentic first-wave TMNT styling, this figure remains one of the most sought-after versions of the character among vintage TMNT collectors.

This collectible includes the original brown weapons rack along with several original accessories, giving it strong nostalgic display appeal despite being incomplete.

Why You’ll Love It

The original 1988 soft-head TMNT figures are considered some of the most important and collectible releases in the entire Playmates TMNT line. Raphael remains a fan-favorite Turtle thanks to his aggressive attitude, classic comic-book roots, and unmistakable 1980s design.

Collectors especially love the soft-head versions because they were part of the earliest production run before Playmates switched to harder head molds later on.
