Went ahead and pre-ordered from BBTS. My first time using them.

The 1/4 Donatello figure is nice, but the one thing that bugs me about it is the elbow gap.

Yeah, I really doubt the gap will be in the final production pieces. It's a strange oversight to leave it in the photos, though.

Did you see the black letters at the bottom that say *NOT FINAL. It's a prototype not production piece. So don't worry Neca will make you happy.

Yes, I did see that. Thank you. Let's hope.

Totally. I love first-movie Shredder (when I was a little kid I always though it looked like his cape was sorta zebra-striped when Tatsu was folding it back off of his shoulder pads, LOL...)

This all seems like very good news.

Dare I hope that those foot soldiers, teased years ago, will see the light of day? Are a Mirage Casey and Splinter too much to hope for. I know Complete Carnage and Radical are!

As much as I hope that the Henson turtles are released in 7" scale, I reckon I'd still get the 1:4 scale ones. Particularly if we are getting a bunch of accessories to deck them out with. Hat and trenchcoat for Raph?

You could just hold out for the smaller scaled ones & get all 4 for the price of one large piece.

I hope that happens. They don't even need paint or accessories... just bare plastic in a baggy... still be better than any Playmates stuff

I'm waiting to see it in person. The video, it looks awesome, but I'm having a hard time believing that was 1/4 scale.

I wanted to grab their Adam West, but once I had it in hand, the quality was a bit of a letdown. Hoping that's not the case here.

I confirmed with Trevor that each turtle comes with a pizza slice and possibly an ooze canister.

Yeah, I was pretty pumped to see that one, too. Here's hoping someone does a run of TGRI variants! I can't wait to see the other accessories. Has anything been announced?

Dominos pizza box for Mikey... straw farm hat for Donnie... fedora for Raph... ooze canister for Leo?

I'm usually not a big action figure/statue guy, but these have me really jazzed. I'm REALLLLLLLLLY hoping for Shredder and a Foot Soldier.

I wonder if the same sculpts will be used for the rumored 1/6 scale line. Any clues why they wouldn't just sculpt in 1/4 scale and work their way down?

Good question and I have no idea . Regarding accessories I was told only the ooze canister and pizza slice.
