The Discs with figures Thread

[Hero]

I've been trying to find a thread here regarding the 25th Anniversary figures so I could talk about a few bits. Particularly to confirm to others on the European side of the globe that the accompanying old toon DVDs work on Region 2 players.

I'm liking the bonus disc idea of Playmates attaching a DVD incentive with thier TMNT figures, whether it is an episode or a video game. The package deal is practically two products that sell each other.

So with this thread, it is figure related but also DVD related too. Here presents a platform to talk about favourite Figure/DVD pairings and particulars on the discs on offer. Might come across silly to some, but I think Playmates giving discs with figures is still one of the things they still do right, and even if it is a medium you've experienced 100 times over its still something to pass on to potential fans/converts/buyers.

BTW. Was the disc attached to the Exoskeleton Mini Mutants the actual Ubisoft TMNT Movie game or other?

Im pretty sure the exosceletons came with the full version of the ubisoft game

[Hero]

Quite generous if so.

Yea, well I guess they just figure that no ones gonna buy it anymore, and since a disk only costs about 33 cents to produce, its the perfect bundle.

[Hero]

Did anyone confirm before whether that was the actual game or not? My PC does'nt run games (and never will) so I would'nt know.

It is the PC port of the video game made for the CGI TMNThttp://www.gamestop.com/Catalog/ProductDetails.aspx?product_id=64250




According to Archon, Its the full version.

I just tried the disc that came with my Exoskeleton Shredder. It is indeed the full version -- I even loaded up my previous saved game and played through the final level again.

That game sure had some generous scoring, btw! I played bloody awfully and still got an A+. That's the value of teamwork, yessir. ;)

Did you get those figures I sent you yet btw Hero?

[Hero]

Certainly did. I've not had the chance to catch you on ICQ to thankyou yet :) So here's a public Thank You instead.

Good News: It's nice to see a full game (and not some thrown together peice of junk) coming with a $8-$10 figure. Makes them more valuable.

Bad News: It ticks off those of us who paid $40-$50 for the game!
