yes I saw that but I'm still going to have to get those damned uk versio for my collection to be complete...grrr...
and yes it seems to be a trend with thos hands..but it doesn't really matter to me seeing as i keep all my figures moc (mint on card)

Why does the Uk get something special when only Americans are special? That sucks.

not sure if you've been paying attention over the years but they are more open minded about things there....well most except viloence...but they get allot of things we don't and allot of american things are tested there first to see if they will work here in america because us americans are suposidly fickle and picky...but I'd have to agree lol the majority of american are.
the uk has been getting specail things for years though and we always get the normal versions of things it makes me feel ripped off allot.

old show all over again

I don't get it

The could at least make show accurate TMNT figs

Actually I think we have gotten too many TMNT figs

instead of Purple dragons and other figs like that, I really don't want this to happen, I really don't.

[tt]Sorry for all the whining in this post [tt]

[Meeko]

I like the deep Sea turtles Exept the Freeking Hinged hands
But The Extreme Commando TMNT Are dumb But o well There in the uk so i cant get em anywho

[OA]

where are these being released?

[TMNTGal]

Awesome repaints. I love camo colored figures! I'll have to get the UK versions too! The Diving figures look cute, especially with those animal companions.

I cannot believe The nerve of playmates. I know I souldnt get on their backs but This is ridiculous. We have had too many variants already! and now they offer repaints.

Those are very similar to these but updated:

These are from TNM but it's the same idea.

with all the fightin gear turtles flooding the shelves today, I find it hard to believe that a repaint of them will sell very well. I may be wrong though. I'll still probably get them for completion sake.

sadly they have to have variants because most kids want the turtles not the foes however i do wish they would come out with atleast the same or more bad figs as turtle

[Envark]

I don't really collect the repaints, so the UK exclusive thing is a not a big deal to me. I think it is better that Playmates does not flood the shelves with Turtle Repaints. Hopefully, they have learned what Mattel has not. :)

How do they expect to sell Fighting Gear repaints when they can't even sell the Fighting Gear figures on shelves now?

Good point.

[Y2Bogus]

It has to be the hands. If they had normal hands, I bet they'd sell.

[Michaelangelo|DAH]

hmmmm

No one hears me :cry:

Well I still agree with all the guys who think that playmates are on the wrong track with these repaints and wannabe old school figs.

I agree. All the Turtles variants are pissing me off. They should at least make a decent Baxter figure before they start making more show inacurate turtles.

I can't believe the UK is gettin this junk! The last good wave we got was April, Casey and Hun! Why can't we get Nano, Foot Tech, Foot Elite, Leatherhead, etc. before we start gettin repaints of figures of the Fightin Gear TMNT?! Knowing what distribution is like here the repaints will arrive at the same time as the originals (which haven't even been released yet) and none of them will sell!

Last thing we got in my part of Canada was Casey and Hun. I haven't even SEEN an April yet.

The reason we don't have Nano and Foot Elite etc. is because their release date has to co-incide with the release date of the game (they come with game codes and things).

Ive been here over a year and i still cant quote :D

Thanks, guess that's cool. Better start checkin the shops soon then as the game's due out this Friday!
