While I agree that the NECA products are more interesting, I would have to disagree strongly that the Super 7 lines are not appealing.

My problem with the super 7’s is that they’re just slightly better versions of the originals. I’d rather have them either toon accurate or just have the original playmates line for nostalgia sake. I don’t need slightly improved versions of something I already own. The smaller reaction ones are a joke.

personally really excited to see if super 7 has more to show on their ultimates line. not really interested in their reaction line. also hyped for neca, and genuinely morbidly curious to see what playmates has to show.

I expect the largest TMNT displays to come from NECA and Playmates. I’m hoping to see Rat King from NECA and these Classic TMNT figures from Playmates. Last edited by mikey0; 02-20-2020 at 03:28 PM. |

NECA:
- Quarter scale Splinter or riot. - I'm sure we'll see some TMNT 2 news from NECA. Quarter? 7"? Both? Not sure - Don't know if we'll see more cartoon stuff...they've already shown & announced a lot that has yet to come out. I suspect we'll just see more of April, Casey, damaged foot soldiers, Leatherhead, Triceratons, etc etc etc. Super7: - Maybe final versions of wave 1, maybe updated ship date - Protos for wave 2, maybe talk about the ship date? - Maybe talk about plans for wave 3, but I'm sure there's nothing to show - Maybe news on Toxie? Playmates: - Who cares |

Things I would love to see.
Playmates Better Rise of the TMNT products. It's on Netflix now and I usually have it played on the background while I work and do stuff but I end up pausing what I do and pay attention to the show. It's surprisingly good. The villains are interesting and has personality. Mirage style Splinter, April, Shredder, Casey Jones and Foot clan and Hamato Yoshi NECA Just more 1/4 figures. I don't get why we are stopping when the best figures made are in 1/4 scale. |

We only got the foot soldier because he's a troop builder, and easily remolded into Shredder. I mean, I'm with you and still hoping we get Splinter, Casey, and April at some point (if likeness becomes an issue - Casey can have his mask on at least). We just know NECA's playbook at this point. Never say never, but I do think Splinter is a bit of stretch for them. Maybe doing quarter scale Splinter with TMNT2 Ooze turtles will make the wave cost work out. |

But yes, most companies do rely on repaints/re-releases to make the most of their molds. I think the difference is that usually those companies also have a much larger bank of figures. How many times has NECA released the exact same toon turtles with just paint differences? Four? Five? That's a lot when the whole line consists of less than like 12 characters. |

It looks like Playmates will be on Toy Fair, but they don't have new RTMNT toys.
