Can i safely say on these forums that i dont like the look and proportions of these turtles? I know its KEvin's work but he did better, i dont know why they look so weak, kinda too human proportions and V shaped torsos , not my cup of tea, a bit like next mutation but worse.
Theyre canceled i see... they look like custom figures made from some wrestler figures by 11 year old kids, no necks, proportions very linear and overall bad, whoever sculpted these should reconsider his job.Worst turtles figures ive seen and its sad cause its based on kevin's work .

Update... Bleh. We still have a while to wait for these Turtles. Emailed them today for an update on it and was told 2nd quarter 2018 for Leo.

Can't say I'm surprised, esp since they haven't made it onto the shipping schedule, but was hoping that Dec. estimate would be true. I hope the longer wait at least ensures a really good job done on them.



And here I was hoping to ask for a case for him for my b-day, if not for this Christmas, but b-day may not work out either since it's in April. 2nd quarter, but the early third... Darn. Maybe gift card toward it instead.

So the Turtles have been delayed again? I guess that means Raphael and Donatello will ship even later, unless all four do get released at the same time.

Hope they don't get cancelled after all.

I did receive Bebop and Rocksteady a few weeks ago, and I must say they are really awesome!

Preorders for these were also up as a two figure set so one other one may be available with Leo 2nd quarter. I just don't remember which one.

Then my guess is Leo and Mikey will be out at the same time in order to fill the orders for those that bought them as a two pack.

Yeah, OotS is still in the works. It just ended up in this thread too I think after it's own thread fell into archive oblivion somewhere.

Finally they got around to updating their predicted shipping schedule and the Turtles made it onto it.

Do we know if the Kevin Eastman designed figures were canceled? I was hoping to buy the Donatello one.

They have unfortunately been cancelled.

The OOTS Turtles have been delayed several times, but they are still expected to release (in May).

Thanks for filling me in.

How unfortunate. I love the idea of figures designed by Kevin.

Aren't they continuously being bumped? I'd be surprised if they ever come out.

No, they never even got an estimated release month until they were finally added to the shipping schedule for May a while ago. This is the first time they've been bumped ahead and seems to be nothing unusual for that company. The Texas Chain Saw Massacre – Leatherface figure was also moved to June with them, likewise previously scheduled for May.

Can you point me to the images of these? I cant seem to find them, they blend in with all the other 1/6th scale TMNT noise.

Nevermind-found them. I love that Donny, but the rest are ugly as sin and overpriced.
