New Film Details From The LEGO Sets

[Bob]

LEGO My Turtles
There are three LEGO sets that will be released: the first is the Turtles' truck, for $39.99; the second was a battle set for $69.99, featuring a female villain with a stripe of red hair, and Megan Fox's April O'Neil; and a third, a giant underground lair retailing for $99.99 and containing Splinter, Shredder, and more. None of the sets had box art or specific names as of yet.

The Secret Of The Ooze
The truck set had LEGO ooze, though, that can drop out of the back. So in case you were wondering whether the classic piece of the Ninja Turtles' origin would be left out of the movie, worry no more. "Of course there's ooze! You've gotta have ooze," LEGO's rep told us.

TMNT
We can also confirm the name of the movie is "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles," though it was changed from the simpler "Ninja Turtles" so late in the process that Playmates had already sent all of their product to the printer. LEGO had the full title treatment, with "Teenage Mutant" much smaller over the more prominent "Ninja Turtles."

Fox, Now More Like A Fox
Playmates has a focused, but extremely comprehensive line of toys for the movie. The look of the turtles was more reptilian, while Splinter (the rat who trains the turtles) and The Shredder (William Fichtner) hew more towards their classic looks. From both the LEGOs and the Playmates toys, it seems like the normally raven-haired Megan Fox will have red or auburn tresses as April O'Neil. She'll look more like a fox then! Because foxes have reddish hair.

Foot Soldiers Are In The Clear
Playmates will release a line of Basic Movie Figures on July 6 for $8.99, featuring Raphael, Michelangelo, Leonardo, Donatello, a Foot Soldier, The Shredder, April O'Neil, and Splinter. This will be followed by a Raphael in trench coat figure later on. Of note, the Foot Soldier came with a removable clear mask. We're not sure why, though it apparently was directly from the movie.

That Figures
Playmates' Deluxe Movie line retails for $12.99, and you can squeeze the character's legs for Ninja Action. Then there's 11" tall Turtles for $19.99, which are made up of the main four turtles and are huge. Beyond that, there's Ninja Combat Gear, which features a movie reproduction of each Turtle's weapon and appropriate colored mask.

Van Down By The Sewer
And finally, a Turtle Assault Van directly from the movie, sized to fit the basic action figures. It also features an escape/assault luge that flies out the back of the van, and is big enough to hold one Turtle. It was emphasized that this is featured in the movie as well.

Truck carrying the ooze?

Truck carrying the ooze?

It's referring to this:

Anyone else think that "S" on the truck carrying the ooze stands for Sachs?

[Shred87]

Isnt there a toy event in New York city this weekend? Anyone attend? (or if its next week plans on attending)

That's what I'm guessing it means.

It was this weekend. That's where all this new info and pictures are coming from.

[TrickOrTreater]

That's what I'm guessing it means.

What. A. Bummer.

[Bob]

That's what I'm guessing it means.

Yep. It also fits in nicely with what the Shredder actor has been saying about how the Shredder and the Turtles haven’t been as connected as much as they are here before.

Also, where did you get that picture? Any more?

[slingtheory]

Hoping it stands for stockgen

[TurtleTitan97]

By luck, on Facebook. Not sure if there's more though. I'll keep an eye out, just in case more pics pop up.

The movie-specific Ninja Turtles display featured three items. The Turtles’ lair set-up included minifigures of Leonardo riding a skateboard and Donatello donning what looked to be night vision goggles. The building was a two-story structure with a slide for easy ground floor access on one side. One small detail worth noting is a gold sword that slid underneath the ground floor, presumably for hiding. The second package came with two vehicles, a large van and a smaller truck. The truck belonged to the April, Leonardo and Raphael minifigures and the van to two Foot Soldiers and a character that could possibly be Minae Noji who’s rumored to play Karai. That larger van opens up along the side, revealing an extensive laboratory including tiny bottle cap-like pieces representing the ooze. The final set included yet another vehicle, a green Humvee of sorts for Raphael and Michelangelo. We’ve also got a Foot Solider manning a security tower attached to a drive-thru gate. In between that gate and the Turtles is a fourth character trapped in a chair, possibly Will Arnett’s Vernon Fenwick, suggesting that the sequence of play is meant to be the turtles driving up to a Foot facility to rescue Vernon who’s trapped inside.

Possible.

I think they still have something to do with it.

I hope TCRI is still behind the mutagen but I'm scared it's going to be something stupid like Sachs Industries. There was a report that said the S logo was on the canister

[TrickOrTreater]

I love that they couldn't even get their act together to get the titles matching from the movie to the merch.

Clustereff.

[TMNT is cooler than MOTU]

Possible.

Is that from the movie line?

[slingtheory]

Clustereff.
Honestly kind of seems that way. And those figures. For the the life of me ill never understand how they in anyway equal ninja. Why do they all have some version of a loincloth or samuri type drape or whatever

[TrickOrTreater]

Well they changed the name well into production? The products are being made a year in advance of the release of the movie. Has nothing to do with getting their act together.

So they've been sitting on promo material for a year and haven't bothered to release anything official in that entire time?

Cluster. ****.

Yea for the toy line, which is not that big of a deal, toys are to appeal to kids, which they don't care. Not much effort is put in a toy line. But if that's how you feel then that's cool;)

Considering branding is an important part of marketing and if they couldn't get their act together that far out, it speaks to the behind the scenes process, yeah it's kind of a big deal.

All your ducks in a row or you look inept.

[Shark_Blade]

How exciting. :D :tcool:

[Anton Chigurh]

Ok sure buddy

[TMNTChris1980]

It would cost a lot of money to scrap all of those boxes. If the move isn't a success, then no harm no foul.

You sir are correct

[turtlefanforever]

Would be the ooze falls out of the truck I guess. I mean it seems most logical

[Anton Chigurh]

Wouldn't be the worst idea, better then them being genetically created in a lab.

[turtlefanforever]

Maybe Sachs does create them and they fall out of the truck into the sewer

[TigerClaw]

But wouldn't the Ooze still be of alien origin? Given how the Utrom were on earth disguised as humans and all.

[samxsteal]

How about Sachs is working with T.C.R.I. Was partially responsible and now the turtles ate fighting the truck to keep the ooze out of shredders hands.

[Dākunaito]

I'm thinking this is the scene from the set photos in which the turtles are captured, maybe they want the turtles to figure out how the mutation was a success.

[turtlefanforever]

There's the S on the truck. If anything in that scenario Sachs would own TCRI

[NinjaPug]

It sounds like TCRI (at least the name) doesn't exist in this universe.

[samxsteal]

Why would he have to own tcri. He has dealt with tcri in the past and not owned tcri.

There hasn't been any thing confirming or denying TCRI is an aspect of this movie

[Coola Yagami]

because this the NEW and EXTREME TMNT movie... it's NOT YOUR PARENTS TMNT anymore... and all that crap.

[turtlefanforever]

Yes! Now "except it for what It is" sam

[chrisdude]

And now we're attached to TCRI? :ohwell:

[Jester]

Maybe TCRI has been merged with Stocktronics....

[NinjaPug]

There hasn't been any thing confirming or denying TCRI is an aspect of this movie

did I say it was confirmed? A report from the Toy Fair said the canister of ooze had an "S" logo on it. Like I said before, it "sounds like" the name TCRI isn't used in this movie.

[Shred Head]

WTF MTV had to ask a Lego rep what the full name of this movie is. The full name of a movie should not be news five months before it hits the screens.
