Nick TMNT panel at SDCC 2014
 

The panel will be held Saturday 7/26 from 11:15 - 12:15

I figured we could use this thread for posts related to the event like last year instead of cluttering up the Official News thread.

I'm so jealous of everyone going. :(

LOL. The exclusive Playmates figure is an obvious ripoff of NECA.

Wow, and they're not even being subtle about it. Too bad their version looks so much worse. :trazz:

Is that a new sculpt? Or is it Frankensteined together from other releases, I wonder?

It's hard to tell from the picture. I wonder if it's the unreleased "comic" Raph from 2009.

Man, I knew I was going to end up missing this, I'm just going to be left with Sunday's scraps :/

Cool figure... if it goes for sale on amazon like last year I'll buy one.

Wish it were a Nickelodeon figure but whatever.

And guys, these panels usually make it online there's 2 or 3 people (at least) recording them usually... so we'll get to see it thanks to their hard work and dedication to the fandom.

Seanlong will be one of the people recording it... he does so every year (and usually asks a question too)

Anybody able to post a pic of 'said' figure? My work computor won't allow me to see the link :)

Looks completely different, actually!

Or at least mostly different... there may be some reused parts in there?

Kind of funny that they wouldn't use the complete, unreleased sculpt that they already had. Though they're clearly aping the NECA figures with this new one...

That comic Raph is really original. Really original. :tlol:

Dear Nick,

Thank you for making the Korra and Turtle panels on different days this year. I appreciate that.

Sincerely,
Plas

p.s. My wallet thanks you for making the exclusive figure something I already have from NECA.

I'll pass on the b&w Raph.... but I would KILL for those 2009 figures!! What's the story with those??

Official panel description:

So this isn't a preview of Season 3? Shame, I was hoping to see some Season 3 info and see designs for the Triceratons and such.

YES! Seth will be there. Great way to kick off the S03 hype train

Sucks that Splinter and Shredder's voice actors won't be there this time, but it's cool to get to talk with some of the new talent, such as Casey.

Well Ciro will probably do his usual showing of a few art stills and such but since this panel is taking place before S02 technically ends I am wondering if they will show much S03 stuff... I really hope they show/tell us a few tidbits though.

Full Cast appearance? Yeah, I'll be in line for that bright and early in the morning!

Has any mention of a signing been announced?

I'm sure they will talk about S3 and show sketches of new characters like last year.

A design of the Triceratons is what I hope to see the most.

Here's hoping Seth Green's Leonardo doesn't sound completely different.

I'd also like to see more of Bebop and Rocksteady, like maybe a small scene of them assuming they aren't mutated in the last 4 Season two episodes.

Wow. That figure looks lame with a capital L.

Yeah every year we seem to get a decent update including videos etc.

Last time we had the pre-vis for Pizza Face and Manhattan Project. They're were really cool. And they showed a lot of cool stuff in 2012.

Plus they've got all four turtles plus Casey, Karai and April - it sounds like a really awesome panel.

I'm quite excited for the news we'll get out of it. It's not the same as going in person, but still.

Playmates didn't like it that NECA was making good figures, did their own for regular retail since NECA was confined to specialty stores. Then Playmates clanked the whole thing after showing Prototypes of their extremely inferior Mirage based figures. Shredder and the Foot looked TERRIBLE.

Now that a panel at SDCC is official, what do you hope they reveal?

Here's what I'm hoping for:
- A completed design of a Triceraton.
- Season 2 finale trailer (similar to the S1 finale trailer last year) and airdate
- I'd love if they announced Renet, Fugitoid and Usagi were coming

In addition to the panel on Saturday, IGN will have live interview with cast/crew later that day.

Bebop and Rocksteady in motion would be nice. Remember their designed were leaked they technically haven't been officially revealed yet.

Yeah, coz I'm still unsure if the russian it's the new Rocksteady. I need to know from them

Yeah would love to see Bebop and Rocksteady and some Triceratons. I do hope they talk about when the finale will air, too. I'm so anxious to see the rest of the season!

Αt how many hours does it start? i will be at home for the next 23 hours but at this time tomorow i will be out .

I can't wait, we always get new stuff during SDCC.

I'm very excited to see what they'll show! At the least I'm hoping for a sneak peek at the S2 finale and some S3 things...hopefully Karai stuff too, but I doubt it.

I can already confirm we'll be seeing some sort of previews for both the rest of S2 and also S3.

I am praying that we see Hun, Triceratons, Fugitoid, and maybe Usagi Yojimbo for Season 3.

I don't know about Hun or Usagi, but Fugitoid could be a possibility. We already know Triceratons are gonna appear.

Starting soon.
