Certainly wouldn't have been out of place with all the other EXTREME 90's stuff going on at the time. I was always a fan of that aesthetic, personally, so I'd have probably loved it if they did give the TMNT a series like this.

Typical Playmates, they skip a turtle far too often. This was one case of it being a huge loss, IMO. The fact they made the eternally peg-warming She-Dragon but not Leo is wack.

There was this mysterious bootleg/custom/whatever though-

I'm glad I own a copy (with the Larsen/Bisley cover you displayed).
I wish I had all 6 covers though but the easiest way to get them is to buy the figures MOC and the TMNT ones are not cheap.

You're welcome.

Gonna try to scan a few more oddities for y'all. Glad you're enjoying them!

I am thankful that's the case, it's so fun having all these wildly different iterations. As for the concept art & whatnot...
