I only got the 11" Leo last time, the only movie toy I bought and wasn't big on the small ones...but I might need the small figures this time. (Unless the big one impresses me more.) Gah, say what you will of them wearing stuff, but I'm too much of a sucker for it... Leo's new pants and belts and now a hoodie, and Mikey in a pirate costume?
Probably during the Halloween parade scene.

You know, I'm going to be completely honest here, I might actually have been excited about toned-down Shredder and fairly interesting and cool-looking mutated Bebop and Rocksteady(appearing for the first time ever in a live action movie).

If it had been any other Turtle movie series. Because I saw the first movie, and it was really really bad, and the only thing I can muster for those things that would have otherwise gotten me pretty excited and hopeful, is complete and utter indifference.

Because Shredder will probably be one-note and boring and not at all interesting, no matter how toned-down his outfit is, human Bebop and Rocksteady still look ridiculous, this movie stars Stephen Amell as Stephen Amell, the Turtles still look awful, Megan Fox is still involved, and so are most of the other people from the first movie.

"Meh" is all I can put forth.

Now instead of having one customed Turtle not actually show up in the movie, the sequel can have THREE costumed Turtles not actually show up in the movie! Yay!

It's hard to tell from the picture but Krang looks like Krang to me, well maybe not his android body but yeah after reading the interview about Bay's opinion on tentacle-less Krang I expected him to look a lot more like the 2k3 Utroms which were basically Krang without tentacles.

Should've worded it differently, he mentions they can have tentacles but not big side tentacles, so my first thought was Utroms who have tentacles but not in your face like Krang's.

The poor saps can't even do their research right and spelled "Krang" as "Kraang" like the Nick show does. When this is the original Krang, not the hive of Kraang.

Would've preferred Krang's IDW android body I like the old one but because of how silly it was it was never a design I took seriously.
Spoiler:


Just look at how intimidating he is?

The anatomy of the humans looks awkward and Shredder really needs some color, cause all black with a bit of silver looks boring, but still better then the mech suit.

R&B looks undersized of course and Krang looks... exactly what I'd expect from a LA interpretation of FW Krang, black and silver, and close enough for that nostalgia factor. Oddly, the best figure is the Foot Soldier this time.

Stun baton staff... Can't give Donnie a Bo, no no, of course not. And, did Mikey tear off the giant scab he calls a plastron to fit the pirate costume, cause he's green on his chest

They all look pretty darn good. Much better than the first line but I'm sure the paint jobs will be nothing this nice.

Krang's android body looks good. It looks like maybe his skin is coming off. Look at his hands. Like The body is modeled after a big wrestler or something and this is without normal clothes and armor exposed...in such a way it resembles the OT obviously.

Glad to have confirmed Krang and Technodrome.

The Technodrome is probably way bigger than what this toy seems to suggest and it's really diffucult to tell what it will look like since they toy isn't closed, it seems to look more like the Death Star than the Technodrome though.
