I'm a "mad" collector.....But I like to call myself a completist, so I'm gonna have to get these. I'll leave them MOC, tho. Like I did with the special edition Space Hoppin TMNT.

The figures themselves are awesome. The armour may look goofy, but you can just take the stuff off, and you're left with some damn nice super-poseable figures. They've got 17 points of articulation, in comparison to the 9 points on the original figures - very cool.

Buy y'know, if you really think they're that "stupid", nobody's forcing you to buy them, or even look at them. Just get what you like, and ignore the rest.

So you can take those goofy looks helmet off too? Because that would be pretty cool if it has 17 points

Have these been released yet? Can anyone from the UK let me know if they've seen them?

Yes, the helmets come off too, all the armor does. The expressions aren't as good as the first Turtles, the finger articulation is a bit annoying, and they don't have the paint wash that the first ones did, but in every other way the Fightin' Gear Turtles are better than the first ones.
