It's a Christmas miracle in February. One of the 5 toy stores on my city had Mozar, bebop and Fugitiod, it wasn't TRU (they are still filled with purplebacks and OotS figures). but one of the non-brand stores that have changed names like 15 times last year, and the action figure aisle is like a 5ft tall 3ft wide stand and two pegs was TMNT while the rest was transformers and Superheroes.

Didn't buy any of them, though, not when they are $20 a pop.

All packed up and ready for #NewYorkToyFair! Who is meeting us there?! #TMNT #IsThatMuckman?

Still skeptical until I see in-hand photos of Muckman in stores :lol:

Missing paint aps? Now he looks ready for a retail release!



Kidding, of course. The sculpt alone is worth a purchase in this case IMO.

Candy Kappa 02-09-2017 04:23 PM

I'm just amazed he still got painted pants :lol:

wpugh2424 02-09-2017 04:31 PM

Same I was thinking
He is missing loads of paint it would appear

Huzzah 02-09-2017 04:32 PM

I bet he gets the same retail presence Human Karai, by which I mean none because she never showed up in any of my stores, got. On the plus side if he actually shows up in stores, he doesn't look drastically under-scaled.

Reminds me of this for some reason. Although I doubt it's that thoughtful of a pose.

Autbot_Benz 02-09-2017 05:19 PM

ok so he will be at Toy fair awesome. i am still skeptical he will get released.

Spidergreg 02-09-2017 09:49 PM

Isn't he supposed to have a sewer lid attached to his feet?

Hopefully it's an attachment in package. Crazy if they scrapped it completely.

Gotta save plastic somewhere

Autbot_Benz 02-09-2017 11:44 PM

that's another reason I scrapped playmates the lack of paint. What is the point of a garbage monster like Muckman if you don't paint the trash that is stuck to him

go_ninja84 02-10-2017 01:57 AM

That Muckman looks like garbage literally. If this is the final product it sucks.

They can't even make garbage look good screw off Playmates
You need to lose the license

Can't have a naked mutant on the shelves! Parents would speak out!

In this case, decency won out over financial expediency.

OrokuYoshiFilms 02-11-2017 09:04 AM

Wonder what they mean by "Group Vehicle"....

Huzzah 02-11-2017 09:46 AM

Probably a reissue of one of the movie vehicles.

Freeman 02-11-2017 11:04 AM

When is it coming?
Can't wait to see better quality pic of Monster Hunters, renewed R&B and Usagi line (that one not so much, looks pretty awful already ^_^U)

Oddly enough Micro Mutants Mondo has unpainted pants and it looks weird. I've been sorta tempted to get some paint and paint up some of the omitted details.

I picked up the rest of the pet turtle sets finally. Oddly enough, the Raph and Donnie sets don't come with a third unarticulated unpainted "practice" dummy like DVD's version and they all required placing stickers in some spots. I had a bit of trouble getting them aligned, but I probably did it just as good as the factory probably would have...

Pet Raph has the worst portability and storage, where am I supposed to put the cage and projectile w/ gun? The foot soldier door is kinda lame because the foot soldier is just an unpainted bump.

Pet Donnie isn't too gimmicky compared to the other sets, but has decentish storage.
