Found something disgustingly interesting...
 

There are some pics of Extreme Commando Turtles and Deep Divin' Turtles on the official website. Look under production pics. You'll see. I think they made new head sculpts for the turtles at least. I hope this isn't old news to you guys. I laughed at these figures at first. But I could almost cry when I think of how much wasted plastic is going to be molded into one of these horrid little child chokers!

A little preview of what you'll see...

I actually like the scuba turtles like i likes the space turtles

I REALLY like the scuba turtles....Proabanly my favorite TMNT variant so far.

I suppose this sort of thing is for the kids, but every time I go out Turtle-hunting, I notice that the pegs are full of more unsold "Extreme Sports" figures than any anything else. I mean, kids dig the TMNT because of the show and the games - I'd think that more relevant releases would catch their interest more than a 'Donatello in bright spandex for some reason' figure.

I haven't been able to find any supporting character or villain figures in ages, around here. It's all Turtles and Turtle variants. The last non-Turtle figure I found was an Elite Guard, many months ago. I dunno, seems like those figures are short-packed and selling quickly, while the goofy Turtle variants are being largely ignored, at least where I live...

yeah its like that for me when the new waves come out, but now last wave has took over the shelves. all I can see is turtlebot, turtle titan, space tmnt, and stonebitter. elite foot and armorized shredder are plentiful too. I just hope they take a back seat in a few weeks when the new figures come out. the deep diving figures look cool. a very good variant. I dont even have the shell sub though so Im not shure i would buy them.
