New Toys On The Way...
 

the official site put new pics of the toys!!!!

check..http://www.ninjaturtles.com/

i dislike the new packaging. I was saving all the card backs from this line, cuz thye had "info cards" and now, its just crap. the figures look weird in the packaging too. like it takes away from the figure. and playmates are too lazy to rip out blanques weapons? and they spotlight random characters on the bottom. ahh im so disappionted. I better start saving my money. :(

I actually like the card backs...i was getting tired of that plain packaing from before...and the figs look great too IMO...finally Gen... :D

i dont like the new packaging... i had all packading of the before toys..and this are diferent i dont know why and more small...

I..WANT...Gen and Hamato Yoshi and Robo Hunter Raph....but mostly Hamato Yoshi!!!

Master Yoshi's bio is interesting because it reveals something about Splinter we didn't know: (from the bio):
It was Yoshi who found and took care of a sickly Tokyo rat that would one day mutate and become Splinter, the sensei of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles!

Ok.. Im majorly curious about this. So is Splinter a domestic rat or not??? Perhaps he was and was abandoned by previous owners?? Either way I hope Splinter's er early years are revealed sometime. That would be cool...an ep in which Splinter remembers how Yoshi found him.

Jester must have the non varient figures...and i kinda dig the new box art....nice tuch...:p

Same crap toys, new package. I like the new packages though their really nice and appealing

Mixed feelings on the package design. I kinda liked the regular packaging. These look a little less interesting especially the back, very bla. Anyway, I'll wait to see these up front before I unleash hell :evilgrin:

-->> Finally ..!! Flippy Flippy Flippy Finally !!

Single molded plastic weapons for the turtles and Blanque, why Playmates, WHY?! :cry:

The new cards look nice, I like the way villains and allies have seperate pictures. I've always thought that the pictures of Raph on his card and Casey on the allies card are terrible though, so badly drawn.

Looks like Feudal Japan Shredder does indeed have that fall-apart feature which ruined Traximus, fantastic :roll:

The new Turtles weapons are gonna look so cheap next to previous waves :(

well. i better get the super glue ready. for the gen figure. i had to do it with the traximus fig.

Robo Raph could make an excellent base for a Slash custom...

I like the new packaging, it adds excitement to the collecting process. I am amazed by General BLANQUE's weapontry. :o This is the best Playmates has done in a long time. What does the button on Shredder's armor do? I really want a Gen too, he kinda reminds me of Rocksteady. The Robo hunting ninja turtles also have cool weapons. I kinda know what some of the collectors on this page is goingthrough. I collect the cards too, so this will be new. I plan on enjoying this.

Sorry, double post (thank you dial-up internet disconnecting).

It makes him fall apart in "defeat", like Traximus.

No way, did you really glue him together?! :P That's pretty funny :)

It was easy to determine the non turtles from the millions of turtle variants in the previous packaging, I hope its as quick as it was with these new figures. I dont wanna sit in the toy aisle sorting through crap to find the slightly better crap that i need to buy cuz playmates will never make these figures in different variations again.

I wonder when these will start to appear? I know that normally once there on the site they normally show up pretty quick so i hope thats the same here...i cant wait for these babies...!

You can already order Hamato Yoshi, General Blanque, and Feudal Shredder from some website since they are supposedly going to ship soon. June 2nd (tomorrow) marks three weeks since Dan Berger put the carded pics up on the official site, so I'm hoping that the figures will be out then. I'll be surprised if they aren't out by *next* Thursday, since it will have been a full month (28 days). My mom is going out of town so my dad will have to drive my sister and I to school, we're going to stop at Wal-Mart and Target every day or two and check for new figures. I actually have enough money to get all eight if they have them.

I don't suppose you know which website?

I probably would have bought blanque if they put him out a year ago. I mean, I know that I'm like, Playmates #1 supporter on this board, but really, I don't understand that line of reasoning, or why CAW Karai is just coming out. But enough with complaining, I'm just ready for Yoshi and Karai. Those are the only two I'm really looking forward to this year.
