This is probably an unoriginal thought, but, I could see it within the realm of possibility for NYCC to bring us a new FW 4 pack to go with the SDCC set:
Splinter (surprise new sculpt) April (repaint of Mirage, perhaps with new head sculpt) 2 Foot Soldiers (the 2 in the SDCC set are not enough for an army!) I would also think it would be cool if they just did a 4-pack of FW foots, or, maybe a single Foot pack with 2 or greater purchase limit. But that's just me. I can not fathom them having more than 1 new FW sculpt hiding up their sleeve, so I am not imagining it could possibly have anything to do with Bebop & Rocksteady. |

Beyond that, I wonder if maybe a Krang Android Body would be something they might be planning or considering. Krang himself is done now, so just sculpt the body and boom, instant new release that would also be HIGHLY desirable by everyone into these. As much as I'd love to see their take on FW April, Splinter, Bebop and Rocksteady, I'm just not sure we'll get them anytime soon, if at all. |

I'd be ok with that too, but, I'm hoping the baby turtles might come out more conventional channels since they will technically be the same scale as the 1/4 turtles (right?). Though I could see them not estimating high enough demand for that type of release...

Krang body with 2 rock soldiers pack.
Then later a 6 pack with 3 foot and 3 rock soldiers. I'd like that.

This is likely not plausible but I'd love a Tragg, krang body, Baxter, and leather head

I do hope they do a completely new sculpt if they do a Fred Wolf styled version.

Sure. Sculpt-wise she looks fine, if she was a staction figure. But single jointed knees and elbows, no thigh cut and just a single joint in her hips which have terrible range, her ankles have a cut joint that looks absolutely ridiculous. And her hands are pretty useless, and the hinge joints in her limbs looks pretty ugly too.
She's very similar to the early Predator figures in that regard, not preposed figures with some articulation but for all tense and purposes might as well been one. |

A Henson Box set would be incredible.
Btw, are we expecting this FW box set to end up in bootlegs on ebay? |

I think so. Everything else has if I'm not mistaken. Although I wonder if the packaging will prove difficult for counterfeiters to duplicate. Unless the theory about NECA being its own bootlegger is true. I'm curious if the factory that NECA deals with has a person in charge that just keeps rolling production and has the online side gig.

Grats to everyone who could snag one Thursday morning.
It was a huge relief for me to be able to pre-order one Tuesday. The more I look at this set the more of a steal it looks to be for $200 If you're able to attend SDCC you should definitely try to get one there before you resort to third party sellers. Remember, after SDCC there will be a flood of these on ebay and other reseller destinations. Many sellers will be forced to lower their prices to reach competitive levels. You may be able to get one for $250-275 shipped. |

It seems like only the SDCC sets from last year had a bunch of factory versions. I am also seeing some NYCC Foot clan sets available as well. |
