The foot soldiers don't stand very well
But the turtles do!

he is right, the foot stand akward but their legs aren't pugy and short like stumps, they are just bent. And for the guy who thought the splinter figure is just as big as the shredder fig, splinter is no where near shredder in the packaging they look the same height but once you take em out they aren't even close, neither are the turtles really

for some reason my Donatello doesnt stand so good, I cant figure out how his legs are supposed to go so I just attatch his bo to his back and then use it to prop him up

Yeah, it's weird that none of the turtles really stand properly. Their feet aren't flat. Well, neither are mine, but at least mine are flexible. Plus those shells do block their full range of movement. But I've got them all standing, so I guess that's all that counts.

Heh, well, they do stand fine. They passed the "must move the lid of the toybox to get at the books inside" test which included lifting the lid, moving it, setting it down on the bed, then putting it back. And they all stayed up. It's just a pain to find those perfect positions.

Mikey seems to have the smallest range of movement for his legs, at least, which makes him pretty hard to stand up. Donatello is a little tipsy at times too, maybe he just had too much to drink last night!

It's important to balance the arms correctly too. I've got my Mikey's arm up over his head with his chucks, with him leaning slightly back. I just propped my Don up with his extra bo, like everyone else.

I went to Toys R Us and they were all sold out of figures. Guess I'll have to wait to get Shredder.
I think it's actually kind of a good thing though, it show that the TMNT are still certainly popular! And it can't be just the old fans buying them at this rate.

::nods:: Yeah, some little kids actually know about the turtles before the new toon was comin' out. I saw a few kids over the course of like 3 months ask to rent the TMNT tapes, but there was none 'cept for the Next Mutation stuff. So I guess they learned about them through older siblings, or movie rentals? -Snailman |

*Cries* I don't believe it!!! Walmart restocked, and there was one each of Splinter, Shredder, and the Foot Soldier, for only six bucks apiece, AND I DIDN'T HAVE ANY MONEY!
