Fall TMNT Toys

[BigApple3AM]

Uh... Alien attack?

http://toynewsi.com/news.php?catid=20&itemid=11825

My opinion: The new heads look pretty bad except maybe Dons. What is up with Raph's teeth?! Leo looks like he just got a repaint head from one of the 2 packs which is sorta lame. The aliens don't have much articulation or paint apps, but the designs are interesting so I'll probably buy them even though they have NOTHING to do with the movie. Seems like more shoulda been fast forward designs coming our way, and FF seems to be gone. This just makes me appreciate the NECA deal even more now... C'mon NECA, don't let me down!

[Roseangelo]

Well, there's 8 more figures I don't have to worry about buying.

What's with the wrinkled toes?

[Mecha Cow]

I don't remember these being in the movie!

God, Playmates sucks. I love how they always slyly go back to zero paint and articulation after a couple of waves. Do they put any effort into these things at all?

[CyberCubed]

Y'know, I'll probably buy these since the Turtles *finally* look like different sculpts and have different facial expressions then all the other movie variants.

As for the aliens, eh, I may get them. I see Playmates is making up their own characters again, just like they did in the old toon like with all those mutants line King Lionheart, Hot spot, Scratch, etc.

God, I can't wait for Jagwar and hopefully other Mutanimals toys. Now those are what needs to be made.

[Slash]

I agree that these characters don't look that great with the paint jobs and all, but to be honest, I am glad to see Playmates making dumb characters like this; stuff that some Mirage people would have tossed a hissy fit over the fact that it's not Mirage cannon enough for him. These look like those throw away old toon characters that Krang would have used as bounty hunters and hired muscle to fight the TMNT. It's good to see a wave with four turtles and four villians. I was getting tired of the lack of villians and the surplus of the OMGWTFBBQ Macrocat Action TMNT figures. This is an okay compromise. The TMNT figures sell to the kids and collectors, but there are people like me who are happy with the basic 2k3 turtles and a ton of secondary characters of all odds and ends.

Yeah, they easily could have just as well made a Wingnut alien (as Wes pointed out) as well as a General Traag. But hey, this is enough for Slash to be happy about. New characters. Now I don't have to wait for other characters to come around as much.

I'll probably end up just doing that though; tossing these with the Krang figure as his most recent Dimension X crew. And you know what? They look good with him. Yeah, I do think it's going to suck that Chrome Dome, Traag, etc, are going to be midgets next to these supersized aliens, but it's something new for me to drool over.

I say let's Playmates continue with this. And let's hope NECA fives us some cool stuff to. :)

[CyberCubed]

Also these come out Spring '08, not Fall '07 like the title of the thread says. :p

[BigApple3AM]

Also these come out Spring '08, not Fall '07 like the title of the thread says. :p

That's because the website changed it, it originally said Fall.

[Slash]

They remind me of Titanus' crew from the old toon - ask Putrescent for more info... Also like Battle Beasts.

[VaughnMichael]

ummm yeah can anyone say Fast Forward left overs I'd rather them have released these as Fast Forward figures instead of them adding them to the movie world they just make more sence in that series.
And the aliens oh well I like them those really are the only turtle figures I buy these days are the other characters I could give a 2 craps less abou the turtles themselves...since I only need one set of turtles and I'm more than sure that money will be going to NECA!
Btw I'm more than sure these new figures where designed by Michael Dooney http://michaeldooney.com/
you can see his toy scetches here
http://michaeldooney.com/PAGES/frameset/toymain.htm
Many of them look to have bits and peices from these new characters so one can only asume plus Dooney has had a huge hand in the design of these toys for years.

I love these totally random villians. Now we get aliens... hey playmates, there was already a FF line where aliens may have fit better. Whatever the story is behind these new baddies, they do look kind of cool. If only we had some backstory

could be for the new show? and I'm sure their storys will be on the back of the box's.

[Revan]

I didn't know this movie line was going to be as big as it is? I suppose, "Milk it for all it's worth."
Curious though, that they may incorporate new show villians with the movie line figures

[drkngrusum]

when I saw alien attack on the TNI boards, I was really hoping for some movie-esqe Triceratons. Oh well, thanks for the let down playmates.

[JetsAndHeels]

Geez, what is the deal with the facial expression on that Raph? Looks like something bit him in the a$$, or he is doing his best impersonation of Mr. Ed flapping his gums.

I thought the look on basic Mikey was silly, well this one takes the cake.

[Blade Raider]

Is it so hard to make a set of toys that have some bases in the fiction? No, it's not. This is pathetic even for Playmates. NECA's statue-toys (probably) already sound better than this...:tgrumble:



(If I sound like I'm rumbling, it's because I just woke up)

[ShredderX633]

These are really cool looking villains, but i don't like the turtles. They look creepy with the teeth and the feet oh u know what I'm saying. I still like the bad guys though, especially the green alien i hope these aliens are going to be like the generals or the monsters. Evil, smart, and are not copies of them. PS did you notice how much the purple guy looks like a Kanabo.:D

You know what's funny if you get the turtles i suggest you put the masks on the turtles and might as well glue them on for good since they look horrible. Except Donatello he actually looks like the best and i like him the most out of the four.

This means that there might actually be a sequel of TMNT. I hope there is cause i loved the first movie so much that i watched it like five times.

This just means the movie toys sold well, that doesn't mean much as far as getting a sequel.

[Mutated Leo]

Holy S! More pooptacular toys from bowlmates! Awesome... Can't wait! :D

[Ninjinister]

Holy S! More pooptacular toys from bowlmates! Awesome... Can't wait! :D

Of course I'm holy! I'm practically a god! :p

I might get Buzzrok. He looks kind of cool.

I love some of the TMNT figure designs on Dooney's page. Badass Casey? Cody in some awesome armour? Godzilla turtle (not lame like Gameraph... actually looks cool)? Yes please!

And one's got to wonder if this Next Mutation design wasn't the precursor to Bishop: http://michaeldooney.com/PAGES/toy-pgs/fed.html

http://michaeldooney.com/PAGES/toy-pgs/saki.html This is cool... but kind of weird. A Shredder motorcycle? o.O

Why didn't this Savanti ever get made: http://michaeldooney.com/PAGES/toy-pgs/savanti.html ?

http://michaeldooney.com/PAGES/toy-pgs/darius.html Darius figure! Woo-hoo!

[discordiatookie]

The turtles are pretty crappy, but I dig the aliens. Well, except for that orange one. The purple one's my favourite. Doubt i'll ever see them though, here in the UK finding a new TMNT toy is like gold dust. Well in Aberdeen it is! Seriously, my local Woolworths just got in the Fast Forward figures this week,just the turtles and Splinter. No new movie ones. We never even got Karai, Jersey Devil, etc. It sucks... I'd buy off the net but my funds are a bit tight the now, and I would much rather spend what I do have on original art, turtle style!

[Quiller-Bee]

Ah, forget alla these. Bring on the NECA goodness!

[Raph's Girl]

*rotflmao*@the expression on Raph's face... What's he doing?? A toothpaste commercial??? I'll buy it just cuz it's cuz a different expression on the face...it would be a er unique edition to my collection.

BTW... these look like the movie figures but they're not...that's just the standard model they're using from now on.

I like that they have different helmets tho. The expression on Mikey's face...he looks perverted...and his helmet looks like something out of Star Wars.

The designs of the aliens are just horrible.

Multifle looks like he could be related to Sh’Okanabo

[Blade Raider]

Relative to this topic:

http://toynewsi.com/news.php?catid=242&itemid=11859

[Drtooth]

....who says these are supposed to be from the movie?

As far as we know, THIS could be the next TMNT cartoon series.

ooooh Fast Forward didn't do well, so let's go with something EXACTLY LIKE IT.

The Brown Alien does look cool, though. But leave it to stupid ideas like this to kill the movie line as well.

[Buslady]

They look like crap. WTF they made Raph look like an idiot. He musta seen a bug honkin roach or something. ugh...
this one looks funnier than the first run mystic raph's goofy expression.

these silly designs are turning me away from the toys...which takes alot for me to do. They look funny.

I kinda liked the older 2k3 toys....

Yeah those feet...the guys look like they got some infection, they need to wrap those & treat them!

[Spitfire]

Well from what I've gathered after seeing the mini mutants figures the new series will have the turtles looking like the movie and the rest of the characters will look like the 2K3 style. I guess we will see.

I don't like those heads, and the turtles necks look weird. Some of the aliens are cool though.

[Head Spinnin' Bebop]

Ew, I thought we were gonna get more movie monsters, I'll be skipping all this.

While the movie line started out being fun to collect, I miss the fun of the original line along with the better distribution, Playmates has become a bore. They suck.

[Drtooth]

Listen. Playmates can do great stuff if they want to (the Ninja Heroes or Minimutants or whatever sound like promising ideas, even for a knockoff). Speculation concerning the new series aside, either way this is a terrible idea.

Now, I love Peter Laird and all, but how come 80's style random mutants are out, but random aliens that have nothing to do with nothing get approval? It's very depressing.

I do say, I don't hate the 2k3 toys. I love them. I hate the varients. Mainly because due to them, the real figures I wanted get shortpacked behind things I wouldn't dream of buying. I mean, the second wave of Varients for the movie showed we can have varients that use the old figures, but are still interresting. I have none of them yet, but I'd rather pick up Jungle Leo than regular Leo. And the Raph with the in scale Jersey Devil was great. i'd get regular Mikey and Don, but they had something going.

The movie line salvaged what the FF deluxe garbage torn down after the Paleo Patrol line tore the original assortment down. Now they're tearing it down again. The Auto Attack figures? They can be ignored. But these are just obnoxious, even if they're geared to kids. Not even they're going to want them.

That said, I do kinda like the aliens... but as something sepperate from TMNT. It's almost as if Playmates wants a new toy line entirely, but is too afraid of making a new product, so they just slapped TMNT on it.

Shame.... they could make a decent toy line with those aliens sepperately.

[VaughnMichael]

Now, I love Peter Laird and all, but how come 80's style random mutants are out, but random aliens that have nothing to do with nothing get approval? It's very depressing.
It's because if he doesn't create it or he doesnt think he does it wont be made it's like kevin eastman said Peter has to be in controll of everything which is fine and all because it's his property but I can't help but feel he's running it into the ground by making everything so bland.

[Drtooth]

Personally, I'd rather not see either random aliens or random mutants. I just want them to stick to the film. Maybe go out of the perameters a bit. Maybe make a Cowabunga Carl Mikey with a fake zipper on his torso, like in the film. Or a seperate Nightwatcher figure slightly different from the one that came with the cycle.

Well those 2 movie variants would have been the obvious choice for the line but seems the obvious choice isn't what people do anymore which boggles my mind.
And I can't lie the only figures I buy are the random mutants, aliens, and other characters on the show.
I will though be buying the mirage styled tmnt figures because that's what I've wanted all along.
I also would plop down money for figures that look like the cartoon characters from around the 1992 seasons.

[Drtooth]

I like the characters who were on the show and GOOD varients. Due to budget constraints I never did get the Mystic Warrior turtles. And the first line of TMNT movie varients worked well. Personally I think if they make the Cowabunga Carl and Nightwatcher different enough, there will be reason to buy BOTH the figures and the vehicles. Make the Nightwatcher's helmet unremovable or something. Have him come with some different accessories. Cowabunga Carl comes with bats and stuff. Maybe make a special "Birthday" edition of that figure or something.

I will not lie. I would buy those new aliens. I will admit, they look alright. Which is why I wish it were a seperate toy line from TMNT. The "Alien Hunter" TMNT don't even look good as far as rediculous/random varients go.

As for the comic line and a toon line, I guess that's all NECA. I dunno why Playmates or Peter or whoever didn't want a seperate collector line they only sell at comic shops or something.

[Roseangelo]

I would not expect toon toys from NECA.

My understanding is that Playmates has no interest in selling to a market outside of WalMart/Toys R Us, etc.

I also am not putting too much hope into Neca. We keep preaching about how great their other work is but until we know the TMNT story, I dare not say we will be getting what we really want just yet.

Well, I expect anything they make to be excellent, but I am willing to promise you that they do not solve the "Playmates Problem" as so many of you (not necessarily you, Slash) think it will. My personal wishlist of characters consists mostly of Archie characters, and unless there's a major change in train of thought, that's not gonna happen no matter who's making the toys.

The rest of my wishlist includes Turtle figures sculpted in the styles of Mirage artists and Movie 1 figures. At least the possibility for these would exist.

I'd be happy if we Mirage style comic book characters that we want to see. I doubt we will get an Ace the Duck (Toon/Comic/or Toy Based) for an example.

I feel like we're too busy (not you, Rose!) saying "Playmates, you suck! Neca is going to be better than you!"

For all we know, we might get a very, very limited TMNT line of just the four turtles, a Shredder, a Foot Soldier, a Foot Elite, Casey, and an April. Possibly a Splinter (especially since he's dead...)

I almost suspect that we will get the comic canon characters from the table top. I'd imagine we'd get a Shredder, posed. If these are statues like the MOTU, I'd be careful with the resin. I hope that is not the case.

[shuriken]

Those figures look hilarious. Leo looks decent. Donnie looks really cool. Raph looks like he's in a super fast car and his cheeks are being blown by the wind and Mikey looks like a creepy pervert. awesomely horrible. The alins look decent though.

[JetsAndHeels]

Now that we know NECA is going to be making TMNT figures, I doubt Playmates will release anything that catches my interest. I have already got Shredder and Jungle Leo from the new wave, so I am satisfied with what I have.
The mini mutants are must buys for me also.

[Slash]

The aliens remind me of this: http://www.esd.uga.edu/rad/thetoysurgeon/aSTROnAUTILUS_page.htm

Thanks Spitfire for showing me that figure.

[BigApple3AM]

They don't even try anymore.

http://toynewsi.com/news.php?catid=20&itemid=11886

Just more basic turtles on modded/repainted 2k3 vehicles. I can't see how kids are interested in this crap at all. As a kid I knew when they reused figures/vehicles and it made the line feel really cheap and I'd lose interest.

If this is how it keeps going, I'm afraid we may not get the follow up to fast forward my friends.

Not just not trying. not even thinking. There's a difference between making the line geared towards kids, and not giving kids any credit. This is just insane now. The large vehicles don't sell. They never do. The big boxed sets with goofy action features that get old after 3 minutes don't sell.... \

and yet the flood the line with them and wonder why they lose money. I don't think they get the message, because we're not their target audience. i can respct that much. They did a good job with most of the line. At 5-7 bucks a figure, they are the cheapest line, and really have a bang for the buck. But with the incessant varients, the goofy action toys, the tops, and now this.... they really really need to fire someone. Really they do.

[CyberCubed]

The sad thing is those new motorcycles don't come out till Fall '08, when instead Playmates should be making figures based on the new season that starts around that time.

[VaughnMichael]

it could be simply because no one knows that they will be doing exactly with the show but seriously guys I agree those things never sell yet they keep making them over and over.
PLAYMATES REALLY NEEDS TO LISTEN KIDS ARE NOT THIS STUPID THEY WERE NOT THIS STUPID IN THE 80'S & 90'S AND THEY AREN'T TODAY. SHESH!:roll:

For the record, I have nothing against motorcycles in general. My dad owns one (and I'm happy to take rides on it), my favorite actor in the world, Ewan McGregor, is a motorcycle freak (Long Way Round = Fantastic), and I listen to a daily talk radio show that celebrates cylinders of all kinds, motorcycles included. I am just tired of all the TMNT + motorcycle toys that DON'T MAKE SENSE.

Nightwatcher + Cycle = Makes sense
Other three Turtles + random cycles that were not in movie = No sense

And now they're just recycling the Turtles w/ cycles that don't make sense again. And this same thing happened with the 2K3 series and the Next Mutation.

[Slash]

I agree. I'd like to get a Triple Threat with a cycle or Biggles with a police cycle. Some kind of deal like that would be worth it.

Those had minimal releases and where jet skys not moter cycles.;)
And I happend to think those 2 figures where really wicked at least they tried back then unlike now all the figures back then at least had newly sculpted things. & well the Camo thing did sort of make sense if you take Simon Bonesteel into consideration.
Everything now is a just re-hash after re-hash.

Ah ic ok buuut the cycle isn't the same as Raphaels just repainted it's an entire new sculpt.
I wouldn't mind just like I don't mind then they at least sculpt new heads on figures if thats what they did now but they don't.
But I honestly don't care though I never buy any of the turtles anyways unless they come with something I want like the correct sized devil that comes with the new movie raphael.

[Raph's Girl]

Looky! Even MORE TMNT toys.... these are mini's...even mini's of the vehicles.

I dunno tho...I think of all these I want the Leo - Hun set....just cuz I've never seen a Hun action figure before. It looks bad tho. The mini Triceraton that comes with Raph (Traximus?? ) is cute...then again so's the Rat King that comes with Mike. :lol: Mike looks evil with those blue eyes....

[CudleyCowlick]

God, I can't wait for Jagwar and hopefully other Mutanimals toys. Now those are what needs to be made.

Amen. Every Bigfoot I sent away for I begged for a Mighty Mutanimals boxed set in the survey.

The aliens are pretty cool I think, not the greatest no, but since I'll go into withdrawal and the DTs if I don't buy at least one new TMNT toy a week, I'll probably add them to my shopping list.

[Drtooth]

Like I told Raph's Girl if you want to see any Fast Forward Figures you need to go to www.playmatestoys.com and tell them how much you want those toys.

Honestly, I feel that's going to do as much good as asking them to release the Ripping Friends series, Gizmoduck and Samurai Eathworm Jim. I'll give it a shot.

I'm guessing that it's the fault of retailers on this one. not thinking the TMNT movie line could co-exist with the FF line. Did that happen before with the other films? I forget. But then again, they were handled as the same toys, where as there's a price and size difference with the current 2 lines.

[Toonami Tom]

I used to want some of the unreleased Fast Forward figures, but as time has gone by I have completely moved on to the 2007 movie figures. So now I don't care if they release the rest of the Fast Forward figures or not. If they do, I will be sure to at least buy Fast Forward Bishop, but if they don't it's ok with me.

I'm most looking forward to the new 'mini mutants.'

[Slash]

You all should realize something... The aliens are VERY VERY Jack Kirby-esque. Obviously influenced by Jack Kirby's work, hence why Laird would allow these new characters.

The aliens don't have much articulation or paint apps, but the designs are interesting so I'll probably buy them even though they have NOTHING to do with the movie. Seems like more shoulda been fast forward designs coming our way, and FF seems to be gone. This just makes me appreciate the NECA deal even more now... C'mon NECA, don't let me down!
To me, the Turtle variants or whatever they are don't like look they'll be worth my money; I tend to avoid variants anyhow. I'm taking a look at the alien figures right now and they look decent, so maybe I'll consider buying some, if not, all of 'em.

It's not that far fetched the fans spoke up before and we got a better baxter stockman figure.

What you didnt like the weird spider robot thing with missles and head hatch? LOL thats a bit better than the Fisherprice baxter IMO. I do like the spiderbot that comes with the new one.

Lol... Just messin. I have one I just thought the detail sucked IMO. The older was far more detailed as far as paint and sculpt maybe not show acurate. The head on the new fig looks goofy and the usual limited articulation BS that Playmates does so well.

So don't take it personal you can love it all you want. Figures like Turtle Titan show how accurate Playmates can go. I was just a bit let down with the new Baxter.
