05 turtle toys ideas
 

I do not collect the new turtles toys,


but I have an idea for toys they can make for the 05 assortment, but I have observed the current toys


Shredder that opens chest and the evil utrom comes out

Kari, with ninja kicking.

(No need for foot mechs because they looked just like the foot gunners)

garbageman

a foot fortress playset

general blanque

giant insect

Jungle turtles

the utrom council 3 pack

Any new character from season 3.

errr can some think of others

nice idea but I can totally see playmates making corny jungle turtles...they will end up looking like those old cave turtle figures.
I'd like some more aliens and monsters.....

Action features always screw up the toy. Of course Playmates isn't high on the action feature thing anyways so I doubt Karai will have one.

:lol: When I saw the title 05 turtle toys, I though the 05 ment fifth, as in fifth turtle toys :lol:

Casey's Motorcycle would be cool

and maybe a few Mafia ones and a few Purple Dragon ones

Unkle Auggie XD

I dunno... I'll think of more later

I would like to see more figures in the Mutations line, maybe a human baxter/utrom baxter transformation or somthing along those lines would be cool.

I'd also like to see Casey's bike but "only" if it comes with a trenchcoat casey that actually has decent poseability and would actually look like he's riding a bike when you pose him on it, I just can't see the current Casey looking right on any bike.

I'd reckon it'd be cool if they did a few more Triceratons with different moulds, weaponary and specialities, eg one with a laser rifle, one with swords etc etc.

Different Utrom soldiers to fight the Triceratons.

At least 3 different Purple Dragon soldiers, at least one is definately due out for production now.


All of the above would be at the top of my wishlist and if I was to get at least one of those things made i'd be happy.

I want the Justice Force!

of course you did

hahaha, to elaberate on my want list!
Stainless Steel Steve with comic book
Dr Dome with Domoid
Janice with Removable Helmet and Domoid
Zippy Lad with Metalhead
Joey Lastic with Bendable hands?

Ya i want THem figs too

I'd really like to see a hamato yoshi figure in sepia tones!

You mean, Ananda, not Janice.

-->>Yeh,Karai.. Brain Jar Baxter.. and yeh.. i love the 'Yoshi' idea..the f6ckin' NEED to make that!! :dead: :sick:

Ananda, Janice, they are both equalish. :lol:

I think what would also be cool would be battle scarred/damaged turtles and Casey...though I doubt Playmates would make those.

you'd be supirsed give them a chance to get the line going...
i mean seriously this is jus the begining of the line I think there doing a decent job so far.

I would like to see super detailed turtle figs with like real fabric masks and die cast weapons for Raph and Leo and either really detailed plastic or wooden weapons for Mikey and Don.

lo now that my friend that right there would never happen in any life time.

Im aware of this,its a dream.

Wingnut, I have always thought that that would be a most excellent idea for TMNT action figures! I thought about that since I was little. :)

Me too! When I was little and i got my first TMNT fig,I took it out of the package and the first thing i said was "Wait,swords aren't made from plastic." Ever since i've wanted to see figures with "real" weapons.

Yeah, I would think to myself..."They could make the mask, belt, pads and wristbands out of material, give the figure an articulated metalic skeletol structure and mold latex over it for the flesh, make the shell out of dence ceramic and attach it to the metalic spine and rib cage, and make the weapons out of the material that the real weapons are made of (this includes a sweet ballbaring function for the nunchaku)".

Man I wish they would do that someday.

If they did, it would probably cost about $50 for an action figure; maybe even more.

Still...I can see myself bying one.

^_^

Me too.

They make die cast blades and such for action figures. I forget the name of the store though. I remember seeing the link over at toymania.com so if you're interested you can always ask over there.

Thats a little too detailed for my liking. I mean these are modled off of cartoons and comic books do we really need a skeletal system. I mean IMO its a bit ridiculous. back on topic, I want Ultimate Ninja and Posse.

Figures of charcters from season 2:

-The entire Justice Force (I especially want Metalhead!)
-Karai
-That Triceraton slave dude (forgot his name)
-Mutating Leatherhead (I think that would be really cool)
-Mutating Baxter (If that piece of sh-- thing is what we're getting we should get another, better one in the future) Ultrom body with head mounted on the top- his four limbs snap into a position kinda like spider-legs and his head can snap backwards into the middle of his back, but his back is now facing upwards.... you know what I mean?
-Shredder with new armor and chest opens to reveal Shredder-trom

As for varients
-TMNT in trenchcoats and fedoras (classic)
-TMNT in samurai armor (Thats always cool, and they are going to Usagi's world right?)

Hopes for figures of characters that may appear in season 3:
-Rat King
-Complete Carnage
-Radical
-Savanti Romeo
-Renet


Oh and if you read the current comics you'll know what I'm talking about when I say:
-Fugitoid in battle mode.

Slave
Primeleader
General Blanque
Federation Traitor
Ultimate Ninja
Tengu+duel master
Metal foot mystic
angel
Dragonface
small shredder clone
twoton
weasal
mob thug
Karai
Karai's footmen
shredder utrom
Mr mortu
Justice force
Nobody(Season 3?)
Ratking(Season 3?)

all I know is this year they made alot of season one characters but combined them with season 2 characters. I just hope for a portion of that and I will be happy!

Wingnut has a very good idea on the new figures, but as far as Playmates making them, if the demand is high enough....trust me, they WILL make those figures.

Plus, after seeing the Marvel toys Toy Biz is making, I would love to see Playmates (or Toy Biz) start a new line of figures with high detail, many points of articulation, and the body parts on scale with each other. I'm tired of Playmates making the same looking figures they made back in 1987; toy production has FAR advanced since due to Toy Biz and McFarlane making their figures as they are now, and Playmates needs to do the same with the Turtles.

Since this is new territory, I suggest they launch the new toy line up with 5 figures, the 4 Turtles and Shredder. I suggest the Turtles be 9" tall and Shredder to be 12" tall. All figures would come with a high amount of articulation for mulitple posing, and the limbs would be to scale, similar to Toy Biz's Marvel lineup (so they won't look all midgety). If this launch line up sells well, then it can be the permanent format for making toy figures.



P.S. for the people that may think my reply may be too long-winded.....simply put, I want a Turtle lineup made in identical format to the Marvel figures made by Toy Biz (especially the Shredder).

that's cool that you want turtle figures like those in fact allot of people do...but I for one don't and if playmates even though of going that way....I'd stop collecting turtle figures....because I'm sorry but some may think those figures look good but I like my figures to look good not like bulbus peices of crap with loose joints and huge joints that dont even look right on the figure.....the only thing I can perhaps say nice about this so called wonderfull marvel legends line is that they have given you guys allot of toys I thought would never see the light of day.
but once again I don't like those marvel figures infact I never have the old ones were even worse...if it came down to it I'd rather see some statue like mcfarlen figures over those tipsy over rated marvel figures...but perhaps thats because I like quility over action.

Shredder's skyscraper playset
Miscellaneous weapons and accesories: would include Shell Cells, foot glove, sword of Ten-gu, Kama blades, mini ooze canister

5.Twoton
6.purple dragon thud( i was thinking the one with the mask)
7.Karai

2.Traximus
3.Gruel
4.General Blanque
5.Lolane( the spy)
6.Federation trooper

Ancient Japan Shredder with sword of Tengu.
Tengu.
Shredder with cloak.
And for fun, the armorized shredder figrue with the color scheme of Old School Shredder. :wink:

Hmmm.... I'd rather see something like what's been done with street fighter than marvel legends. The new Street Fighter figures have enough articulation but it's more modest than marvel legends. Seems like toybiz wants to just put the # on the box to sell it now and they don't care where the articulation goes....

I would never buy tmnt if they went to McFarlene though.... I already have a Leonardo statue, I don't need another.

In my previous reply, I was stating what type of articluation I wanted for the figures, not really for another company to do them. But Ectocooler, you're on point about the new Street Fighter figures, they are indeed great, with detail and articulation. And it's time that the TMNT have figures that are just as detailed and articulate as that.

And to Putrescent, sorry to hear that, but I feel it's time for Playmates to get out of the 1980s and start making more comtemporary toys. You said that a lot of people wants these toys, in which proves there is a market for these figures. I suggested the five-figure launch (the turtles and Shredder) to test how deep the market is. If it's profitable enough, then Playmates can start a new line without necessarily abandoning the current lines. If not, then they can go back to the regular figures without taking a big risk.

Utrom skeletons with peel off human disguise (made of a strong latex or rubber material)

:lol: Now THAT will never happen unless they include another deluxe sub-line.

Even then I guess it's unrealistic. :P

Not really...ToyBiz has done some good work with that concept. Take a look at the Peter Parker/Spider-Man figure from the second wave of Movie 1 figures, or the latest wave of Spider-Man Classics. They make a Spidey figure, then include a latex (or rubber) hoodie and pair of sweat pants that slip over the molded Spidey figure. The result is very good, but there's no telling how long that material will last. Two years later, my movie figure is still fine, but the latex mask is starting to split just a little. Maybe that's why the Spidey Classics version included interchangable heads instead of a mask...

But then again, this IS Playmates. If they were to ever tackle the Oot/Disguise situation, they'd probably give us a non-articulated Oot endoskeleton, and a one-piece "shell" of a human disguise that would snap over it. :roll: I'm having a hard time describing it, but think about what the original Space Hoppin' turtles were supposed to be.

Does anyone remember the X1 Mystique figure? It came with the wolverine slip on body suit? That thing is terrible! For one, it doesn't "slip" on. For another, it just looks terrible when you have it on.

I like everyone's ideas. I want to see a news reporter April.
