Mezco is at booth 1253 with the Comic Foot Soldiers and a Gray Hulk, sold in person only and not to exhibitors before 11 AM ET each day. IDW has its panel Friday, October 9 at 11:15 AM in North Room 406.2, and Super7 founder Brian Flynn is on stage Thursday at 3 PM ET. Nickelodeon's booth 1523 has a Turtles photo op. We have not seen a Turtles title named for the IDW panel.

Mezco said on October 7 that the Comic Foot Soldiers, a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles three-pack in the comic version, will be sold exclusively at its NYCC booth, number 1253, next to a Gray Hulk. Its booth graphic promises reveals and exclusives. Mezco has not given a price or an edition size for either.

Schedule last checked October 8, 2026 against the official NYCC schedule. The IDW panel was read from the NYCC listing on October 4; the NYCC pages load with scripts our tools cannot read, so we have not been able to re-read them since.

Exclusives

Turtles comic exclusives on the NYCC list

Exhibitors add their own exclusives, so this list is partial and was growing. Read from the official exclusives page on October 4, 2026, 9:10 PM ET. Mezco's in-person items are not on it; they come from Mezco's own Instagram.

What we know and what we do not

Confirmed, our guess, and still open

Confirmed

  • Mezco is at booth 1253. The Comic Foot Soldiers and a Gray Hulk are sold in person only, and Mezco is not selling to exhibitors until 11 AM ET each day.
  • IDW Publishing has a panel on Friday, October 9, 11:15 AM to 12:00 PM, in North Room 406.2, with Matthew Rosenberg on the list. IDW's booth is 4551.
  • Super7 founder Brian Flynn and Esoteric of CZARFACE hold a Walmart Collector Con session on Thursday, October 8 at 3 PM ET.
  • Nickelodeon's booth 1523 has a sewer lair photo op with the Turtles all four days.
  • IDW confirmed on October 5 that IDW Goes Dark, a horror line running through 2027, includes the Turtles, and said it has at least one announcement for every weekday of show week.

Our conjecture

These are our guesses. Nobody has announced them.

  • Mezco may show more than the Comic Foot Soldiers. Its booth graphic says Reveals and Exclusives and its One:12 Collective Turtles are the line it is actively selling, so another Turtles item is plausible.
  • IDW may name the Turtles title in IDW Goes Dark during the week. It has promised an announcement for every weekday and the Turtles are in the line with no title yet.

Not known yet

  • The price and edition size of the Comic Foot Soldiers. Mezco's posts show no figure, and we have not found a Mezco product page.
  • When people who are not exhibitors can buy at booth 1253. Mezco has only given the 11 AM ET exhibitor time.
  • What IDW will announce on Friday. The panel listing names no Turtles title, creator or format.
  • What Flynn and Esoteric will cover. Super7 has said toys, collecting and all things Super7, and nothing more.
  • Whether the official NYCC schedule and exclusives pages list anything we missed. Those pages load with scripts our tools cannot read, so we have not been able to check them again.
