: The figure's primary play feature is its customizability: via the swappable heads and accessories, and the rotating belt buckle, it can be displayed as any of the four Ninja Turtles. It can also use a "maskless" head, and thanks to a combination of [[5 mm post]]s and specialized tabs, the weapons for ''all four'' of the Turtles' weapons can be attached and readily accessible to Wallop at the same time. In addition, the vehicle's front is a separate part that acts as either an arm-mounted shield or chest armor in robot mode. A very cute detail about this front section is that the "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" insignia on the front is removable, revealing a ''teeny-tiny'' pepperoni pizza on the underside.
: In robot mode, Party Wallop has a ''lot'' of display options available. Party Wallop's head pops apart above the "muzzle", to be replaced with one of five different skullcaps: a baseline green for default Party Wallop, then four others with "bandanas", one each in of the Turtles' colors (Leo in blue, Donnie in purple, Raph in red, Mikey in orange). The currently-unused skullcaps can store in Party Wallop's back assembly/shell. The Wagon's entire front end can stay attached as the robot's torso, or be removed and placed on his back, revealing a more turtle-plastron-like torso design. This sub-torso features a rotating belt buckle, each side displaying one of the four Turtle's initials (L, D, R, M) in their trademark colors to match the chosen bandana (or not, go nuts).

  • Party Wallop (2024)
Collaborative Party Wallop is a roughly-Voyager-sized toy, transforming from humanoid-turtle-like robot into the Turtles' "Party Wagon" vehicle, based on its design in the original [[wikipedia:{{#if:|:}}Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1987 TV series)|{{#if:1987 cartoon series|1987 cartoon series|Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1987 TV series)}}]]. In van mode, the roof-mounted (non-firing) guns and side-mounted red "lights" can rotate/elevate, plus the ends of the cannons are Fire Blast effect-compatible. The logo/shield in the van's front-center can pop off, revealing a tiny personal pan pizza.
In robot mode, Party Wallop has a lot of display options available. Party Wallop's head pops apart above the "muzzle", to be replaced with one of five different skullcaps: a baseline green for default Party Wallop, then four others with "bandanas", one each in of the Turtles' colors (Leo in blue, Donnie in purple, Raph in red, Mikey in orange). The currently-unused skullcaps can store in Party Wallop's back assembly/shell. The Wagon's entire front end can stay attached as the robot's torso, or be removed and placed on his back, revealing a more turtle-plastron-like torso design. This sub-torso features a rotating belt buckle, each side displaying one of the four Turtle's initials (L, D, R, M) in their trademark colors to match the chosen bandana (or not, go nuts).
On top of that, he comes with Cybertronian versions of each of the boys' signature weapons: Leo's katanas, Donnie's bo staff, Raph's sais, and Mikey's nunchaku. All seven of these weapons can store in both robot and vehicle mode, with a series of tabs and 5 mm posts/holes allowing all of them to be readily accessible for battle in robot mode, not merely stuffed into his back-shell.
Rather than being packaged in a box like previous Collaborative figures, Party Wallop comes packaged in an large blister pack. Said blister pack uses Generation 1-style package design not dissimilar to Ectotron and Gigawatt, with "rips" in the packaging revealing images of the four Turtles, which reuse contemporary stock art styled after the '80s cartoon.
Party Wallop was accidentally revealed a bit too early by an Amazon Australia listing, which was taken down shortly thereafter. He was then properly revealed on the March 28 Hasbro Pulse fanstream the next day... but not before listings began appearing again, this time making him available for pre-order upwards of a few hours ahead of schedule. He's currently set for release in July 2024.

Notes

  • Party Wallop's pupil-less, toothy scowl recalls the original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles action figure range by [[wikipedia:{{#if:|:}}Playmates Toys|{{#if:||Playmates Toys}}]], which (partially thanks to using the original [[wikipedia:{{#if:|:}}Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (Mirage Studios)|{{#if:comic series|comic series|Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (Mirage Studios)}}]] as a basis) used this expression for nearly every figure of the four Ninja Turtles.
