That is an old picture, prior to Wave 1 was released, and the final character decisions were made. Originally it was thought that Bebop and Rocksteady (based on this pic) were going to be in Wave 1.

TLS then decided to release Casey and Karai instead.

I asked them if they would be Mirage based or characters from the 87 cartoon. They responded by saying "possibly " haha I am hoping they stick with the comic book style.

I wish I had some extra money because I love the blind bag idea. It reminds me of my card collecting days when I would get a pack of cards and get home with the anticipation of getting that jersey card or foil insert haha

UG... bought a case today. I got everyone except a Foot Soldier, either one. Got 2 of everyone else except Shredder and April which I got 1 each.

So, if anyone has a Foot Soldier they can sell me, LMK! I'd rather not have to go to eBay...

I just got a little tidbit of information from Joe Allard on Instagram. I asked if he would be designing wave 2 and he said that he did and that wave 3 was also in the bag! I'm so glad to hear that these are selling well enough to continue. Love these little guys!

He also said that he may post some peeks of the new wave on Instagram and that The Loyal Subjects will be showing the new wave at the Toy Fair this week.

Psyched! I still haven't bought any wave 1 figures yet yet but I'm totally into this line & I wanna get some soon.

OK, so Joe responded back and said it was a typo and he meant wave 2 was in the bag but he said fear not wave 3 is most likely happening too! Very excited for this line going forward!

Those are cool variants but I want new characters...hopefully wave 2 consists of new characters and those will just be exclusives. That custom is sick too!! a black and white variant would probably be the only turtle variant that I would buy if tls would go that route.

I like the Mirage variants but I'm not a fan of the blood. Hrmm... What's put me off of jumping into this line head first is the color of the turtles' skin in wave 1. I didn't care for it much. Now there's 5 sets of turtles total & I STILL don't like their skin well enough. Shoot. Maybe I'll get the Mirage set, given wave 1's designs are all Mirage oriented. The turtles will clash with everyone else a little bit, but what can ya do... Big disappointment that wave 2 isn't more characters rather than variants.

Peeps- just because TLS is showing these off at Toy Fair doesn't mean this is Wave 2. Some of these will probably be window boxed exclusives. One of these turtle sets may be the turtle component of Wave 2 in addition to new figures, but nothing has been announced yet. Spare disappointment until we hear what's actually happening.

But what's a fanboy to do other than make assumptions & get frustrated?

Good point, though. I just don't like to get my hopes up.

Well, we can now get our hopes up because I was just informed that these are simply comic con and retail exclusives of wave 1 turtles and that wave 2 will definitely have new characters!!
