Think they will make a Foot Playset?

[STEPP]

does anyone think they will make a Foot Playset?or maybe a TCRI playset or somthing?As I think that would be great but I know we can always count on more motorcycles :D how many so far 12?

[***First of Two Latin Kings***]

I doubt that they will make a Foot Playset. Not immediately, anyway. Maybe if the toyline continues to do well, we'll see one in the next few years.

Stepp, there's a thread that contains all the toys Playmates has come out with since the rebirth, but I'm going to try to list all the motorcycles off the top of my head for you.

Shell Cycle
Battle Bike Leo
Battle Bike Don
Battle Bike Mike
Battle Bike Raph
Combat Cruiser Leo
Combat Cruiser Don
Combat Cruiser Mike
Combat Cruiser Raph
Hover Chopper
SWAT Hover Chopper (variant)
Planet Racers Space Cycle
Bad Boy Moto-Psycho

I'm coming up with 13, 9 of which I have. I skipped out on two of the Battle Bikes (didn't really want them) and alternated when the Combat Cruisers came out-- but now it looks like I'm gonna have to go ahead and get the other two Combat Cruisers. They're just that sweet.

I certainly hope for some kind of Villain playset. We should've gotten a large Foot vehicle by now. Either the large Foot Ship or speed boat, Foot Blimp, or large Foot Copter instead of current Mutant Copter. Those among other Foot Vehicles are on the show. I am quite angry Playmates makes these vehicles that are not even on show. I hope this new Mutant Copter will be seen, along with the 3 in 1 Shell Striker vehicle. They should keep up with the show, and not just make whatever they want, and adding the Turtles logo on it. It's uncalled for.

I would definately prefer a few more playsets over more vehicles...

The Turtles Lair is sooooo cool to have on display, but It's about time we had somewhere for the villians to hang :) ....

If they made a Foot Playset, I would want it to come with atleast 4 Foot Soldiers......as I have NONE!!! :lol: I know...it's crazy.....they are the only thing I couldn't find! I will get my arse to eBay very soon & grab some.

I've wanted a Foot playset for a long time, but I don't see it happening :( A lot of people wanted Shredder's building (or at least the top floor of it) but it's a bit unlikely now.

I agree with you NinjaSwordsman, I don't hate that they make non-cartoon vehicles but they should make a few more Foot vehicles. For a long time it was just the Razor Jet and now all we've gotten is another small vehicle (Moto-Psycho). It's about time we got a kick ass Foot vehicle. I mean, we got Zanramon's Cruiser and he doesn't even have a figure, and the TMNT were in it for all of five minutes.

Man, I would LOVE another playset! And I agree the top of Shred's building woulda been nice but they probably wont make that...if you think back to the vintage line, they really didn't make any Foot playsets or even many bad guy vehicles....I mean, looking at the line as whole covering those ten or so years, we really only for the Sewer PLayset and Technodrome as large playsets..but who knows...hopefully, they'll make somthing...

Thats really all I could ask.....one good playset for the goodies, one for the baddies...

I was a bit sore they didn't get out Snake Mountain in the latest He-Man line, I feel a bit they same if there is no playset for Shredder....

I agree, the top floor would be awesome....

I gather the line is kinda winding down now....Is this why people don't see another Playset?

[OA]

I'm not if I'd say the line is winding down now...i still think its going strong...sure the last few months there hasnt been much as far as releases go, but I still feel the line is going strong...

Well thats freakin awesome to hear.....why do we think there will be no more Playsets?

Or were we just doubting the top floor of Shredders building?

What would be another good playset for the baddies?

Again, just looking at the history of the line going back to the original cartoon inspired line from roughly '88-'97, there were VERY few playsets at all, and the turtles RULED the world back then. I mean, esp. in the late '80's early '90's, they couldn't go wrong with tmnt merchandise: everything sold like hotcakes. So if even in that time period, when the turtles were so hot they didn't make many sets, I doubt that in this day and age, with the tmnt not being as huge as they were, coupled with the fact of higher costs to manufacture, advertise, etc. the products, I doubt they would...but like I said: you never know...so we'll see but don't hold your breath...

They should make a Foot Playset definitely. Of the old toys, the Technodrome was easily one of the coolest toys released back in the day. Even today you don't see toys that are quite as large or unique as the Technodrome.

If they did make it, I would just hope it was a bit better made than the Sewer Playset. I love my Sewer but I know that children and parents really hated paying so much and it wasn't durable enough to really be played with. The whole concept was good, folding up and having a carrying handle, but the execution was poor.

I don't think that the TMNT line is weakening. If anything, the fanbase seems to have increased since the original debut. I remember in 2002-2003 that finding the toys I desired was easy and they didn't seem to be moving off the shelves but now I have to check every few days to score the toys I want because they are always so picked through.

Just as a general rule of thumb, they should give us more Playsets, fewer turtle variants and lots more "other" characters, and while they are at it, get some other cool toys out there. And they need to stop releasing all these different but essentially the same "stuffed" turtles. I bought the original stuffed turtles, and the ninjatronic ones but then there are the poseable ones and so on. I honestly feel they should cater more to the action figure line. I have one playset but a dozen vehicles. I am all for another Playset.

And the toy lines always wind down towards the end summer because if they release "new" toys during summer, there is no incredible demand for those ones by Xmas. At the beginning of summer there is a bit of a jump in toy sales when kids get out of school. So we will just have to wait for the toys that will be on every kid (and collectors) Xmas lists. There will be plenty of toys hitting shelves around Thanksgiving (or so the distributors have assured me).

Aw...I really like my Turtle Lair :lol:

I know it's not entirely fair to bring out amazing expensive products that kids are going to expect their parents to buy them for them....but.....screw it!!!

If they need to charge a bit more to have a multi levelled cool playset with different doohickies attached , I am happy to pay as long as it's worth it...

I think the Turtle Lair was worth it....
