Ninja Strike are fully articulated. I was quite surprised myself, to find that.

I found RoBug difficult to track down. Finally got mine in Argos in Scotland, but even then I had to order it and have it delivered!!

Back to ninja action dudes.

Trying to demonstrate these here. Forgive the crude quality, as I'm doing everything myself. I'll get my girlfriend to help with the next one.

Here's Raph,



Here is the same articulation as any other Turtle figure:



And- ninja kick - haha!!

Happy to have grabbed a removable mask OotS Casey Jones today. I think I'm gonna keep it sealed in box since I could totally see that variant becoming a rarity with some collector's demand in a few years.

Playmates really should have launched that figure at the front end, but maybe they didn't have the full license approval to use Amell's likeness when they went to mold?

It doesn't really look all that much like him so why would that stop them?

The movie went through production and release really quickly. Playmates may not have realized that Casey was going to spend so much of his time unmasked back when they decided to make the original figure a masked version.

Quite a bit less than some of the ebay sales in the last month!

Someone on another forum found these guys at TRU. No Raph, though.

Wonder why they keep dodging the gimmicks Raphs? Also how bad is the paint omission on these?

They are not terribly missing paint apps. The initials on the belts aren't painted
Mikes knees are missing stars and his belt is not painted correct

Out of all of the variants from the original toy line, they choose those three this time?

Yeah, that's my guess. I'm sure if they put us up to a vote covering all the old stuff, they'd be making much different product. I wonder if they have all 4 turtles from each of the iterations covered in the Leonardo Evolution pack, 'cause it'd be cool to see the 4kids, Next Mutation, etc. turtles re-released.

Wish we knew what molds were still out there. I'd love to see many more of these.
