Does anyone remember what the first TMNT figure they ever had was? I think mine was either Usagi Yojimbo or Rocksteady, I played with those constantly until their limbs broke off. Today I have a Rocksteady with no head, and a Usagi with no ears or legs. :lol:

It was the first Raphael from 1988. I got him in like December 1990. My parents saw I needed some kind of hobby and asked if I'd play with Turtles
and I said yeah.

i have absolutely no idea. talk about a long time ago! the main ones i remember having tho were undercover don, splinter, storage shell don, and leatherhead (his head would always fall off). i had tons of them tho, but those always stuck out in my mind for whatever reason.
i also remember the turtles that you could make into baby turtles. since i was little, i used to always think it was funny to make them big, but leave the tail out, and call it a penis. ah, good times, good times...

my first turtle figures were the transforming turtle figures (i had all four at once). So to be truthful, my first turtle figure actually ended up being four.

Hhhmmm, I can't remember which figure I had first. I know that when they first came out, I got Leonardo and Raphael, and my sister got Donatello and Michaelangelo. I never did get many figurines, but I still have them all!
The figures from the second Ninja Turtles movie were my favorite. :)

Ah yes...it WAS Metalhead...and here he is:

Shame he only had a real role in one episode...his appearance in "Big Bug Blunder" doesn't count to me since he's only used as a vacuum cleaner.

Metalhead is a cool figure! I used to love to hold him to the light and when his eyes lighted up it was like he was alive. I can't say much for his weapons, but the weapon you could stick in his arm was kinda neat...if I could manage to get the real hand back in.

LOL! My problem with the Metalhead figure was trying to pull his hand off so I could replace it with his weapon. Darn thing was too much of a hassle, so I've never messed with it again. :razz:

Raphael & Splinter, the soft-headed kind. I got'em for x-mas presents from my Aunt, Uncle & Cousin. He knew about them, but I had no clue. I always remember squishing Raph's head flat, so he could "tuck into his shell", :lol:. I always had a problem keeping Splinter's robe on correctly, it always slid all around until I finally used the belt to hold it in place.
azure turtle & raphael90: You guys too? :lol: I always remember it being so hard to get back in, eventually I just stopped all together & had him hold the "robo-chucks" in his hand.
I always liked the other non-turtle figures, they were cool! I have just about every figure (most I got back then), with the exceptions being some of the later harder to find figures (Shogun Shoate, Hot Spot, Scratch, etc.).
My sister had the original April, Leonardo & I guess Donatello. I have the file-card for Donatello, but I had no clue were the figure is! :lol:

Yeah, I liked some of the non-TMNT action figures released too. I liked Ace Duck, Rat King, and Baxter Stockman.

Ace Duck was very cool. AND one of the first TMNT figures to have ball-jointed shoulders. I think Tatoo was the only other one.
Was Tatoo even in the original comic book series?
