The foot soldiers don't stand very well

But the turtles do!

tmntpower2003 · 01-31-2003, 11:58 AM

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

**Kali** · 02-01-2003, 09:17 PM

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.

Greed · 02-01-2003, 09:22 PM

Now take a picture and let them fall

MzTheInsomniac · 02-02-2003, 10:20 AM

Hm, all of my turtles stand fine except for mikey

**Kali** · 02-02-2003, 10:38 AM

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.

*Eye of Sarnath* · 02-02-2003, 05:09 PM

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!

**Kali** · 02-02-2003, 05:23 PM

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.

Greed · 02-02-2003, 06:34 PM

Really I have no problems with my Dony

Michaelangelo 3:16 · 02-02-2003, 09:50 PM

They had everything but the Battle Shell in TRU at Valencia, CA

*Eye of Sarnath* · 02-04-2003, 06:10 AM

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.

Greed · 02-04-2003, 02:39 PM

I got the whole set yesterday for my B-day

ladygarth · 02-04-2003, 07:01 PM

I finally got a figure!!!!! I got Donatello at Wal-mart in Las Vegas area. He was the only figure they had left!!!!! I got the motor cycle also since they didn't have any other figures.

*Eye of Sarnath* · 02-04-2003, 07:20 PM

Lucky... the TMNT are a hot property, it seems.

I HATE Canada, they STILL haven't got one freakin figure here in Winnipeg, me and poor Splint are suffering while everyone else is saying how they have 7 or 8

ONE day we will get them, and by that time you guys will have the 2nd line

Very true, and I can't even attach a foot stand (no pun intended) to my Foot Soldier to help him stand up due to the fact that the new figures have HUGE peg holes. Why they made them so large, I'll never know. But my two turtlesdo stand up easily. Mikey has a weird right arm though...

Heh heh.

I wonder why he comes with 2 Bo's? Does he ever use both of them at once?

My Mikey just has a weird right arm. Like no matter how much you roate it at the elbow, the arm still remains very straight.

If you can, just go to KB toys & buy them, if anything you'll get them cheaper & save a buck or two.

::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?

*Kameko* · 02-06-2003, 01:17 PM

*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!

tmntpower2003 · 02-06-2003, 02:14 PM

Well be thankful you at least got Splinter! Here in the GTA, I can't find anything TMNT related! Not even an ad in a Magazine or a Catelog!
