TMNT April O'Neil Action Figure (1988 Playmates Toys)
CC-7 — Very Good
Product Description
Step back to the golden age of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles with this classic April O'Neil action figure from Playmates Toys' original 1988 line. As the intrepid Channel 6 news reporter and ally to the Turtles, April was one of the first female action figures to join the heroes in a half shell, making her an essential piece of any vintage TMNT collection.
This figure captures April in her iconic yellow jumpsuit and features the articulation and sculpt that made the original Playmates TMNT line a phenomenon. She's ready for action-packed reporting with her full complement of journalist accessories, allowing collectors to recreate their favorite cartoon moments or display her alongside Leonardo, Michelangelo, Donatello, and Raphael.
The figure shows honest play wear consistent with a toy that brought joy during the late '80s and early '90s. Paint transfer and minor staining are visible on the legs, torso edges, feet, neck, and right shirt pocket—all typical signs of a figure that was loved and used. Despite nearly 35 years since manufacture, she remains display-worthy and stands unassisted, a testament to Playmates' quality construction. For collectors seeking an affordable entry point into vintage TMNT or those looking to complete their original team roster, this April O'Neil delivers authentic nostalgia at an accessible price point.
