TMNT minimates its happening! - Page 13

Chaotix12345 · 07-08-2015, 06:19 PM

Series 3 pics! Newcomers include Bebop, Rocksteady, Spirit Quest Turtles, unmasked Shredder, Steranko, spirit Splinter, and SLAAAAAAAAASH!

Slash was literally the only character I was waiting on, so needless to say, I'm ecstatic. ^_^

Damn, might be time I finally start collecting these. I love the Mystic Turtles set. Anyone who does correctly what Playmates fails to, gets a sale from me.

*Ninturtle* · 07-08-2015, 07:44 PM

The only thing I'm a little sad about is that A human Xever probably isn't in series 3 unless he's a Toys R Us exclusive. My Bradford minimate could use a Xever to go along with him. But yeah all of the Figures shown look really fantastic and I'm super pumped.

OMG... stoked! Everyone I speculated has come to be! Oh man I hope we get a better look at Slash, but I am SO ordering a full case of these. They all look FANTASTIC!

Also, found the TRU exclusives today! Woohoo!!!

*Ninturtle* · 07-08-2015, 10:33 PM

I'm a little dissatisfied with that Blue Fire Splinter. He really doesn't look how splinter did in the show. If I wasn't a completionist I'd skip him but I want to own every TMNT minimate .

*TheBlueTurtle1* · 07-09-2015, 12:50 AM

Oh man, these look great! A whole case for me.

*Shazam!*

He looks quite nice. I love how huge his body is compared to usual Minimates. XD

Wow I'm blown away. This looks like one of the best minimates I've ever seen.

Remind me why I didn't jump on this line earlier!? :p Slash looks amazing!!

*Ninturtle* · 07-09-2015, 06:37 PM

I hope they make the rest of Mighty Mutanimals, I think they would look good in the minimate style.

Reigner · 07-09-2015, 06:43 PM

Id put money on a clear Blue Splinter making its way out as an exclusive

Also i hope the Turtles come with the alternate weapons.

Toadtrooper · 07-09-2015, 07:10 PM

I'd add in tampos for the nettings on Raph's arms, and change the hue of the markings on Don's legs. But that's it.

Kind of sad that DST/AA does such great work with so many limitations, while Playmates has more freedom and retail opportunities but almost always disappoints.

I didn't notice Raph was missing his nettings , good catch. I hope they add it to the final figure since these are proto types.

The final mini mate will probably be clear, I've noticed the prototypes often do not use clear plastic.

In all fairness I think it might be the other way around. The mystic turtles are desgined by Playmates and Nick just chose if they can fit the design in one of the episodes. Kind of like the Larp turtles.

Or it might be variants.
For the movie Electro minimate. The comic store version is metalic blue while the Toys R Us release is transparent blue.

Ciro designed the "Mystic" turtles, bruh.

*Ninturtle* · 07-12-2015, 12:34 AM

Slash and Rocksteady are my favorite out of wave 3 so far. I just love the bigger bulky look they have. Bebop is alsi up there because his head and arms look so accurate. DST makes me want to stop collecting from playmates because we're getting another company who can make a lot of figures from the Nick toon. Hopefully we get a lot more waves because these minimates kick a**.

*TheBlueTurtle1* · 07-12-2015, 01:34 AM

Agreed. Slash not only looks to be one of the best TMNT minimates but one of the best I have seen! We need MORE mutants, and the 80s tutles would be nice, since they actually appeared in the Nick show.

I'm pretty sure Splinter will be translucent. Not sure why we'd paint him solid blue.
