cqb101 10-16-2003 01:41 PM

Well, they don't have his accessories up there. It's Playmates. They know how to accessorize ;)

Splinter 10-16-2003 02:19 PM

He looks pretty cool. But, there's just something about him that sort of makes me long for the Classic version. Maybe it was the Bayou look that made him such an intresting character from the old toon/archie comics. :)

Shellfox 10-16-2003 02:46 PM

WHY, Why have you forsaken me, I can't see it, WHY, BLOODY SITE, I want- nah- need to see him

come back soon site

Eye of Sarnath 10-16-2003 02:57 PM

I think he looks awesome.

Shellfox 10-16-2003 03:08 PM

once more I am under welmed at what has been delivered. Blast it he has a slagging button on his side, thats never good

Jephael 10-16-2003 03:12 PM

I can't help but notice how they gave Leatherhead plastron just like the turtles'. He's even got a belt on and arm bands. All he needs now is a bandana. LOL, just kidding!

Taloniss 10-16-2003 03:24 PM

Looks really cool. Can't wait til we get him up here in Canada (in like, 3 years)

Stefano 10-16-2003 04:43 PM

i hope he's like how he was in mirage instead of the old show

could always order online if you think you'll only get them late. :)

well if he had a button it must do something. The feature could take away from the over all toy, like the dino-turtles

Hopefully it's 'Jaw-Snappin' action. That would be cool. Maybe it will have both 'Jaw-Snappin' and 'Tail-Slashin'. :D

I'd just like to take this time to say why I love collecting the TMNT toys
#1 They're figures from TMNT, one of my all time favorite shows/ movie/ comic books
#2 I actually like them because they're simple and cartoony looking, thats always been apart of their chram to me.

and now to the post:


WOW!!!! Leatherhead looks awesome! I love his new character design, I see they opted to give him some human clothing as to make it clear that he's more inteligent then just an upright walking alligatorl, I good choice!

The figure is great IMO, look at the great detail on the skin. Just noticed the button, and judging from it's location I'd say its "tail thrashin' action!". This is definetely the most anticipated new figure for me!

OA 10-16-2003 07:51 PM

Man, this fig looks fantastic!! I love the look of the skin...I think the big differnce b/w this one and the old one is that this one actually looks like he could do some serious damage....I'm so siked about all these other character figures comin out..not just differnet versions of the turltes....Hopefully this willbe out soon!

Splinter 10-16-2003 07:54 PM

If you look at the character from the original mirage comic issues, he had bandages wrapped around his wrists like that. Not sure of the ankles, or the belt though. But it's not unlikely. :D

FALLEN ELDOR 10-16-2003 10:22 PM

I liked the old one because he could walk upright OR on all fours. Its a great looking figure, and I'm glad to see some more mutants finally! BUT I am mad at the lack of ball point joint arm!

Barkworm 10-17-2003 07:42 AM

That's definitely the best looking toy from the new line, I love him. And the cartoon pic looks also awesome!

Yeah, I was kinda hoping that too, but if he's longer then the original figure, then that'll be good. He should be the same size as Hun at least, judging by the picture which isn't a bad size for him.

::nods:: The Bayou Leatherhead was cool & is one of my favorite old TMNT figures (I loved aligators & crocodiles as a kid, so a figure of a mutant one was like totally awesome to me :D), but this guy seems to be more of the character from the original Mirage comic series. That's my guess why he walks a bit more upright too.

I'm thinking he's going to be, judging by his appearence & what I read in the small spoilers that say what happens in the episodes.

I'm thinkin' "Tail-Slashin'" more so, as it looks like the tail can move. Maybe pushing the button makes the tail strike at the left or right? :-? But I'd like him to either have jaw-snapping action, or at least have a mouth that can open.

A mutant aligator/crocdile without a moveable mouth is like a mutant bird without any wings.

::nods:: Yeah, I agree too. I totally think it's an action feature connected to the tail in some way.

YEAH, me too, that sucks. :( I always find it crappy, when a figure of his size (which I'm guessing is equal to that of Hun's) doesn't have ball jointed shoulders. I mean, it has the room for them, why not include them?? :-?

Heh heh, that reminds me of that pick of Leatherhead in TMNT gear.

Nice stuff. I'll most likely pick this fella up.

lethrhd 10-17-2003 07:40 PM

:o
... speechless, but I cant see him having his famous Cajun accent looking like that. I bet it will definitly resemble the old mirage gator but hey. HE'S IN THE NEW TOON!

OA 10-18-2003 12:40 PM

i wonder what his accessories will be....i hope he has a really big gun- it would fit him nicely

kj6754 10-18-2003 04:39 PM

i wish his eyes were like they are in the drawing. he looks kind of bored. lol anyways its still a good figure because of the skin details.

TMNT is cooler than MOTU 10-19-2003 09:49 PM

Big and green! Me rikey!
