[VaughnMichael]

and off to wal-mart I go!

[Roseangelo]

Seriously. I wasn't gonna buy any of these, but knowing that Dooney designed Thrashmor is enough for me to bring him home.

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

So are the other aliens not being made?

[Bigfoot]

Here we go again.

I will be busy this weekend searching the Walmarts. I wasn't sure either if I was going to like these figures, but the collector in me needs to have 'em all. It looks as if these characters have some type of promotional sticker as well as some kind of paperwork inside the package. All I can make out is "TMNT Code Green" on the sticker, anyone know what this is?

[mattmanw54301]

more aliens for my FF shelf!!!! WOO!!!!

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

Link, Rose?

[Raph's Girl]

Ooh.. good thing Im going christmas shopping this weekend....Definatly will have to get myself something. :D

[CyberCubed]

So apparently Playmates is shipping the Alien Hunters, the Mutating figures, the Mini-mutant figures, and the FF Secret agent turtles all at the same time?

Man, that's a lot of stuff to release together. I'm going to be broke. :/

[METALHEAD]

:D oh goody!!! MOAR TMNT TOYZ!!!! YAY!

[ShredderX633]

AWESOME now if they can just see the other two aliens! These guys are COOL!!!!!!!!!!! But Come on Dumpiumper what kind of name is that! Their better off with Para-Cyt the prototype name!

[ShredderX633]

Never mind I ment to say Dumpjumper.

[Brodie]

Wow...Super detailed.

[Spitfire]

I'll save my money for the FF figures*If they come out* and the Neca figures.

I might nerd out if I see them in person though. I was in a Target today, nothing. I'm so sick of that crap, stock your damn shelves. Just the other day I went to four stores that normally sell TMNT figures and none of them had any. Pretty stupid with the Big Foot offer going on.

-->> ..>v<

[Roseangelo]

Guh, you got!

What store?

Damn the Turtles look lame...

Murphy's blog said only two of the aliens were coming out, but the back shows all four - How many did you see?

[VaughnMichael]

Ugh tokka I hate you!
My wal-mart keeps restocking the shelves with series 1 of the movie turtles..not other characters..just the damn turtles..you know because they sell so well and all.
& don't forget Rose the back of the Fast Forward box had the Gunjin and the last set of 2k3 figures has purple dragon and they never came out.
I swear they like to tease us all.

[tOkKa]

P : Ugh tokka I hate you!
-->> ..seems to be alot of that goin' around lately..

..Wal-mart only had the 4 TMNTs A.H.s and Dump Jumper and Thrashmor..

the others were DOA..

..i thought someone had already gotten them.

But i forgot what Murphy said.. mayeb Flex- and Buzz- aren't coming out.. :dead:

[tOkKa]

-->> There are also collector/game cards in the packs.. 8 in all.. >v<

[VaughnMichael]

I'm not for real Tokka you know that for a fact.:anime:

[Spitfire]

Guh, you got!

Yay so the only two I'd get are the two that aren't coming out? Brilliant.

[METALHEAD]

AWh bummer! no buzzrox & multiflex??? you gotta be kidding me! 0.0 >< awh bloody hell...well maybe we'll get'em....and oddly enough i might buy 4 of the turtles cus...theyre head sculpts are great...mikey scares me though...he has that 'i'm gonna get yer flesh' look...plus that grinn makes him look like he has sharp teeth.....:teek:

I'd Say Mikey looks better than Raph...I think best looking turtle in this batch is Leo.

[Zog the Equalizer]

Damn it, Multiflex was the only one I really wanted! Looking at them now, the only one I wouldn't want is Dumpjumper.

[Extreme_Enigma]

Are these Aliens from the movie? I contacted Playmates toys they said that the Aliens aren't from the movie.

[mattmanw54301]

Nope. These are simply 'movie-style' figures. Unless I missed something in the movie. *scratches head* I guess I will have to make sure. *goes to watch TMNT movie for 17th time*

[BigApple3AM]

Picked up Thrashmor. I'd like to point out that while I was there they had two alien hunter raphs. One was packaged sort of standing up and the other was jumping as if floating in space. The difference was just that one raph wasn't bent at the legs and the other was. Maybe not a real variant but I thought some of you would like to know.

If the other 2 aliens are canned I'll be upset. Those 2 were the best looking! I'm not kidding, I thought it'd be the other way around if 2 were to get canceled.

[VaughnMichael]

I agree, and once again playmates making poor business decisions.

[Slash]

Just remember, there are several repaint versions of DUMPJUMPER!
Turdtunneler.
Crapcrawler.
Sh*tstalker.
Fecesflier.
Buttbrawler.
Fartflocker.
Dungeater.
And my favorite...
Cowpiecruncher.


Yes, you can own all of DUMPjumper's crappy cyborg cousins and their s--- eating grins.

[Zoey]

I got Alien Hunter Leo. He's pretty cool. He kind of reminds me of an alternate version of Fast Forward Leo.

[Extreme_Enigma]

I just got Alien Hunter Leo and Mike (and a Shredder because I needed them for the Bigfoot).

[ShredderX633]

Where are you people finding these figures and has anyone seen Buzzrok and Multiflex yet? I'm hoping to get all the aliens. If I had to say my most favorite aliens in order from most favorite to least i would say Buzzrok, Multiflex, Thrasmore, then Dumpjumper.

Buzzrok and Multiflex got pulled from production, even though they still ended up on the back of the cards. :ohwell:

First of all Multiflex and Buzzrok are not getting released and second of all they are not aliens from the movie, just aliens.

[Spitfire]

Another reason why Playmates is retarded.

[Extreme_Enigma]

Another reason why Playmates is retarded.

I agree with you.

[TMNTGal]

No manti or squiddy? *sniffle* :( Those were the best ones. It's crap like this that has made me lose interest with these toys. Now I started collecting other stuff to fill in that big void.

[VaughnMichael]

Same here and I'm making my own figures based on the old cartoon..

[Drtooth]

This smacks of naivete on my part, but are those new head sculpts? Something about them looks different. I would be interrested in new head sculpts. Too bad the only regular TMNT movie figureI have so far is Mikey. I'm still looking for Jungle Leo and Monster Hunter Raph varients.\

And in all honesty, out of all the unproduced figures Playmates has had over the years, the 2 Aliens are far far down on my list of what I hate about the company. No Gizmoduck or Samurai Earthworm Jim, or the Ripping Friends... sniff sniff...

[Raphael91]

Multiflex was the coolest in my opinion, but im so dissapointed in those raphael and mikey head sculpts, Don looks like his not interested in any of the alien capturing stuff but Leo looks cool, damn i wish Multiflex would be released so i could buy him and leo :ohwell:

[Tallstar]

Hey guys, new member here.

By chance do any of you know if there have been any new developments with regards to the characters Buzzrok and Multiflex?

I noticed earlier in the thread it was stated that these 2 guys got pulled from production. However, my one good friend from England actually has these in-hand, MOC! I'm trying to find out what's going on for him (are they slowly trickling out into the marketplace? Did he get some rare one-of-a-kind items? etc.), because he couldn't find anyone else online that has them. Neither can I!

This would be the first I have heard of them shipping.

[NightwatchersOnlygirl]

I've got the Alien Hunter Raph

[VaughnMichael]

Seems that Wal-mart here in PA finally got these figures...to bad I got the figure I wanted on a trip to Ohio.

[Tallstar]

Buzzrok and Multiflex included?

BTW...Thanks for your input tmntman.

[VaughnMichael]

No, Those figure while on the back of the box are not being released, yay playmates!

Which part of England is your friend from? I'm from the Bristol area and toyshops everywhere have no TMNT stuff apart from Nightwatcher bikes and Cowabunga Carl vans that won't sell, sad really.

Chances are those one-of-a-kind items were shortpacked figures or something.

===HERO

[VaughnMichael]

Well also as we know Some other Items from Playmates TMNT lines are coming out over in England and not here in America so anything is possible.
And only time will tell.

===HERO

He's from the Portsmouth area, though I'm not sure if that's where these were purchased as he often hunts around for figures in different areas, especially during breaks/holidays.

He said he'll get some pictures to me soon.

BTW I'm in the US.

[Hero]

I'm over in England too.

Whatever is meant to be headed to England do let me know as I will be hunting around regularly.

So right now its:
Alien Hunters
and Secret Agent FF TMNT right?

I though the Alien Hunters were already out stateside since Slash reviewed the main 2 on Figured Out (http://figuredouthq.blogspot.com/)

===HERO
Yes and the lot of you may get the rest of the Fast Forward Characters that never made it here.
We have the Alien Hunters but 2 figures on the back of the box are not being released or so we are told by both Playmates and Steve Murphy who works for Mirage.

But either this guys friend has found out more great figures only you guys are getting or he's pissin' in our corn flakes if you know what I mean.

[Hero]

Chances are this will be later down the line. There's so much movie junk that needs shifting at the moment.

Last year we got lots of Mystic Fury (cept Don) and some odd 2k3 from out of nowhere. It could be the same with FF. Chances are these could even end up in the pound shops.

===HERO

[GK Punk]

I saw these at Wal-mart the other day.

[ShredderX633]

OH THANK YOU! You've given me confidence that Multiflex and Buzzrok do exist! And if anyone finds them PLEASE eihter post images or tell where you found them! Also do you mean you found Buzzrok and Multiflex?

[Extreme_Enigma]

I saw these at Wal-mart the other day.

Do you mean Multiflex and Buzzrok? Or did you mean the other Alien Hunter figures.

[Slash]

They don't exsist! Murph told us that they don't exsist. Then again, there is Secret Agent Donatello.

[JetsAndHeels]

I bought 2 Leos and the Thrashmor from this line...everything else I am skipping.

[Tallstar]

Here you go guys. Courtesy of my friend:

omg *dies* *cries* *jumps up and down* Murphy was wrong!!!!
Tallstar you sir have made my week!
Now the hunt is back on wooooo!!!

[Spitfire]

Bad ass, still waiting to SEE these things though. I've yet to see any Alien Hunters figures. I guess there's 2 more movie line toys I'll be buying.

[Roseangelo]

Great, now I want Multiflex...

[Krueger]

Nice, I wasn't digging the first two but I'm liking the new ones. Nice find.

[GreasyBoi]

Holy Crap!!!:o:o:o :sick::sick: :dead: I never new these were developed. I'm so confused.:-?
What if they made a Mini Mutant version of Multiflex and Buzzrok? Kids would be grabbing them and adults would start selling tons of auctions on eBay.It would be funny if someone did not know these were out everywhere and someone would start buying it for $400 since he thought it was so rare.:lol::lol: ... I did say "What If". Hey Tallstar, if your friend probably tells Murphy or Dan Berger, one of them can post it for everyone to see.

[tOkKa]

-->> ..when was it said again that they " WEREN'T " gonna ship ?? :-? ??

[Slash]

Are these in the UK? They might be with a Secret Agent Don!

[ShredderX633]

Don't forget these figures were for the SPRING 08 release which means they still had time to come out!

[ShredderX633]

What were the names of Buzzrok and Multiflex spelled on the package?

[Tallstar]

What were the names of Buzzrok and Multiflex spelled on the package?

Not sure. The same, I'm guessing.

I asked my friend if he would join up here. He'll be able to tell you guys more.

-->> ..yeh .. i'm figuring that ..

..but i barely recall the initial announcment that they 'would nt ' be released.

I've been anticipating that they would.

.. meh i dunno .. i'm all mixed up .. :dead:

[renegadez21]

oh s%@t that great hope they come around here

[VaughnMichael]

Tokka are you in line with the devil? It all makes so much sense now!
Murphy said they would not be released in one of his blog posts, You've post in enough of them, go look for things Murphy said.

[Slash]

What the hell is it with England getting all these figures? :(

[silentrob]

So should we even bother driving ourselves mad looking for these at retail in the US? I'd love to have a definitive answer, these figures are awesome and I've missed so many others at retail. And picking them up on the secondary market is painful!

[VaughnMichael]

I'd wait a bit to go out looking, I went to a local wal-mart and all they have are mini-mutants.

[Havoc]

Hi there, I'm the one with the Buzzrok and Multiflex figures.
If anyone has any questions about them please go ahead and ask :)
I would take some pics of them loose but I'm holding out opening them to see if I can get hold of a second set first. Went looking today but no luck. I was very surprised to find the ones I did :)

Let me start out by saying welcome to the 'Drome. This is quite the topic that you are going to be the center of. I recently found all the Alien Hunter Turtles, Dumpjumper, and Thrashmor. The word around here has been that the 2 characters that you have, were not even produced. When your friend posted pics, I was overwhelmed with hope that they do exist, as these 2 are my favorite of all the aliens. I was wondering if you could take some clearer pics of the names on the packages, as well as any character info that may be on the side or back. Much appreciated. Also, I recently discoverd that the "Secret Agent" series (only Don at this point) of turtles was only released in the UK. Have you seen or heard of this series?

Once again, welcome aboard.

[ShredderX633]

Hey Havoc how was Multiflex and Buzzrok spelled on their boxes? Just wondering so i can try to find these figures.

[VaughnMichael]

Just as they are on every other alien hunters box.
If you're looking on ebay, good luck because they arent on there and 2 your going to have to fight allot of other people for them.
It's best to be patient and wait.

[Drtooth]

omg *dies* *cries* *jumps up and down* Murphy was wrong!!!!
Tallstar you sir have made my week!
Now the hunt is back on wooooo!!!

He wasn't so much wrong as either misinformed or not informed entirely about these being UK exclusives. He said the same thing about Secret Agent Don.

Somehow I still think that Alien Hunters seems like it was meant to be a seperate non-TMNT brand that got absorbed into the line, because Playmates felt they wouldn't do well on their own. I actually would get the aliens if they weren't movie figure prices.

No they are from tmnt Michael Dooney Mirage artist and long time designer of the tmnt toys for playmates designed 2 of the aliens if not 3.

[ShredderX633]

Well I REALLY hope we get these two in and fast! If i had to make 1 to 4 best alien hunter figures It would be Buzzrok, Multifelx, Dumpjumper, and Thrashmor! Buzzrok and Multiflex are the best of the group it would be a REAL shame if they didn't come to stores!:(

[VaughnMichael]

m. said...
Heard back from Playmates: the last 2 aliens WERE indeed made and released in the US. They just forgot to tell us, like.
https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2490093766124645019&postID=9124280690089893334
very last post is from steve murphy confirming that they did indeed come out.

[Ninjinister]

What the heck is with the "oh, we're not releasing them" attitude for Playmates and their figures, then releasing them under our noses, mostly in very arcane venues or in limited release?

I wouldn't be surprised if we ended up seeing photos of Jagwar MIP shortly following the release of that line....

[Havoc]

I was wondering if you could take some clearer pics of the names on the packages, as well as any character info that may be on the side or back. Much appreciated.

I'll try my best! All I have working at the moment is a webcam so the pics arent as clear as Id like. I thought I was having a visit from my nephew today so I hid them away. Ill bring em back soon as I can and get some more pics of the names and side panels (the back of the card seems to just be the same from what I remember)


Also, I recently discoverd that the "Secret Agent" series (only Don at this point) of turtles was only released in the UK. Have you seen or heard of this series?
Havent noticed them, but then I havent paid much attention to the FF line.
I'll keep an eye out though!

I was hoping to find a second pair of these guys so I could open them and take some loose pics, but no luck yet.

Thanks for the welcome!

ShredderX633, I'm sure it was spelled the same :)

[Tallstar]

I went to go register my car today, and had about an hour to kill before Secretary of State opened (*shaking fist at the later Wednesday hours*), so I went to Target and Wal-Mart to check out their selection of AHs.

Neither store had Buzzrok or Multiflex, just 1 of each of the others.
