Any hope for new female figures?
 

The only female figure in this line so far is April. PlayMates Toys has also not released very many of her action figure when they refreshed the toy line and re-released all the other main chataters. So what's up with this? Is there any hope for a regular Karai figure or a Renet? Or is PlayMates Toys going to skip them because they don't think anyone would want figures of these characters?

Another thing, April wears different clothes sometimes so why has'nt PlayMates Toys made at least one of those April variants?

While I obviously can't speak for all areas, locally April was the biggest peg warmer for quite some time. My guess is that based on that, Playmates has not felt there is enough demand to add April back into refresher cases yet. But all hope is not lost. There is at least a Kari figure coming out.

I hope Karai in her regular black outfit is made, and not just her in a shredder outfit. She was in a shredder suit only once in one episode. It makes more sense to make Karai as she mostly appears in the show. We already have enough Shredder figures.

Buying April with different clothes would be boring. The only variant I see worth making is 'Jungle Girl' April cause she'd look different enough and would come with the spear she used in the episode and stuff.

hopefully Karai in her normal clothes and Renet too.

im hoping for angel also

Yea, I can agree with that..she was one of the top peg warmers of the line...even today, you can find her with realtive ease...

She really wasn't a peg warmer at first in my area and they have been re-shipping her lately here since she wasn't around, so now she's a pegwarmer. As for Karai I'm sure we'll get her as well as Renet (remember 4 Kids doesn't know we know of her yet, shhh). Even though she hasn't been announced yet the line sells well enough for them to justify a few female figures. I wouldn't expect an Angel though, but a Jungle Girl April is right up playmates alley, they did it with the old line so why not this one when she actualy appeared that way in the show.

But if that is the reason why we may not get more female figures, is that the same reason they scrapped Quarry? Once playmates realized she was a woman?

Hmmm interesting coincidence... Not using Quarry cause she turned out to be a woman. Maybe the fact that Quarry seemed male turned female was too much for Playmates to play with.

I doubt that specualtion about Quarry...I mean, the toys are aimed at kids...and at face value, kids would think of Quarry first and mainly as a monster/alien, not so much a female...we collectors would know, but if they were aiming at collectors, then they would know we do in fact want female charchters (heck, we want ANY character)...but thats just IMO.... :)

They still have April here but I think all the refreshers have busted paint applications on her eyes. Everyone I've seen has a busted right eye or something similar.
