Back to the Sewer toys? When?
 
Probably nobody knows the answer, but I'm surprised Playmates hasn't released the Back to the Sewer figures yet. I mean, they released the Fast Forward figures a few months before the show came out. So what gives?

I want a Cyber Shredder action figure, lol.:D

Ninjinister 09-08-2008 11:30 AM

We already do, apparently. The Sub-Sewer outfits have been seen in a screenshot for Back to the Sewer.

Toonami Tom 09-08-2008 11:37 AM

Hmmm.... interesting. Thanks for the info.

I wonder if they are going to make a Cyber Shredder. If so, he/she should be very tall, but probably won't be.

Ninjinister 09-08-2008 11:43 AM

I'm hoping they do make Cyber Shredder and a few other villains like Cyber Foot, Stockman and Hun. The only BttS villain I know for sure is in production, is Metal Klawz, and I'm not even sure when he's coming out.

Toonami Tom 09-08-2008 11:48 AM

Yeah, I would also like to see a new Hun, Stockman, and members of the Foot. They would be in scale with the 2007 movie figures too, at least I would think so.

Is Metal Klawz the mutant mole?

Indeed it is. It was seen for a brief second in the opening titles of the Back to the Sewer preview.

NEVER!!!! WAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!


Seriously, though. They dropped the ball not making Lost Season toys (the "Mystic Turtles" don't count, since they were made for the video game, TMNT3), and they're apparently screwing up again now just giving us the same moronic movie variants. Now they've worked them into the show.

There WERE sketches of Cyber Turtle figures going around, with designs close to their BTTS look (more like FF, though), as well as a design for a Ch'rell (SP?) figure. But those look like they're tossed aside for Music variants and Fire Fighters....

I remember coming up with a list of 40+ toys Playmates could have made that were based on Lost Season, including the variants, Mutations and vehicles that Playmates likes so much. Why didn't we get any of those toys at all?

Because they're the reason the season was "Lost." They wanted to sell the FF toys instead, since the stupid plastic dinosaurs were sitting on the shelves...

I mean, at LEAST give us the Taxi! At least give us that!

And look how many Fast Forward figures they made. Well over half of the ones we say in photos from trade shows never got made, including the Inuwashi Gunjin that was pictured on card backs.

Drtooth 09-08-2008 01:00 PM

Apparently the FF didn't do well (though they could of fooled the hell out of me, they sold pretty well in my area), and something tells me they didn't think the retailers would want the TMNT movie line and the TMNT cartoon line co-existing with each other... unlike Spider-man, The Justice League (as far as Batman and Superman were concerned)... and basically everything else...

Ninjinister 09-08-2008 01:13 PM

They sold rather well in my area as well - the basic figures, that is. The deluxe Triple Strikes and vehicles sat on shelves forever.

Coola Yagami 09-08-2008 01:28 PM

I want a Cyber Shredder and New-Age Foot figure....>.< and a new April figure too.

Ninjinister 09-08-2008 01:37 PM

Do you think since Demon Shredder was shown in the Back to the Sewer preview, we'll ever get a Demon Shredder figure? You can never have too many Shredders....

so many shredders...But yeah a demon Shredder would be cool. But he'd prolly end up being a crappy colapsable figure or have a crappy gimmick.

They sol well everywhere, me thinks there was more to it than that and that a big wig stopped the line.

Yeah, like that. But then again he may end up being superbadass.

Metal Klawz is part of the Sub Sewer line.

Yes, however, as nobody has seen him in stores or on eBay yet, we do not have proof that he has been released.
