Woah, that would be amazing, and maybe the most logical way to go with the Arcade Game series.

I'd love the samurai robot with the detachable head.

My bet is that we will see these again in the future with toon accurate paint in a boxed set with some extra characters, maybe Krang's android body or some Neutrinos.

One thing is certain: every time NECA shows anything new, I despise Playmates a little bit more.
Small Niche basically defines NECA lo. Rock soldiers have been wanted for forever.

B&R have been done a lot and if they did them each would be a unique sculpt. The rock soldiers share body sculpts except for the arms, upper torso and head.

Yeah both the rock soldiers and Slash will DEF be released with cartoon colors or toy colors.

I really hope you're right! That would be sooooo cool!

Wow at first glance I thought Slash was an all new sculpt, just now realize that it's still the same basic NECA arcade turtle body as the base. I'm thinking the 4th villain might be Krang's Android Body, since he is from Dimension X and in both games.

This set already has quite a lot of new tooling so I wouldn't bet on an entirely new figure. Tokka seems like a reasonable possibility to me.

This is the most logical suggestion. Based on this, if I was a betting man I'd put money on Shogun as they could probably re-use the Shredder/Foot human body sculpts again.

Is it me or does the Slash figure's head look slightly too large for it's body? Or is that the style?

One final question, as I not 100% familiar with all the characters and which games they are in, but is the current dimension X threesome based on 1 particular game, or a number of different games?

Granitor- TMNT Arcade game
Slash- Turtles In Time
Tragg- Both

& yeah Slash's head is a bit oversized, but I think it works alright.

You guys are silly. It's going to be something they can repaint and sell as a toon figure. Bet the farm on that much.

Traag and Granitor share lower bodies, Forearms, and hands. Slash uses the turtle buck as a base too. So no there isn't a lot of new tooling.

You can't just repaint slash and make him a toon accurate figure so that point is moot. You can however repaint him as an archie tmnt adventures slash. So with that in mind all my money is on Armaggon.

I don't know wath you guys see but to me that slash is very close to Archie with pixel paint that can easily be repainted to comic colors

Meh, you can repaint him into a toony Slash close enough for gub'ment (AKA Playmates) work... and if you wanna be picky, he would make a nice vintage-toy-coloration variant if maybe that's their next reuse play instead of toon-coloration.

If I can't get them in the Can I probably won't be buying them. Always get nailed with custom charges when getting from the US.

I feel your pain bro. Which is why I've more or less stopped getting figures from the US
