Official 25th Anniversary Figures Thread
 
Well i didn't know they were out already (I'm guessing its a bootleg?) but here is a 25th mikey

http://cgi.ebay.com/25th-anniversary...%3A10|294%3A50

Again, I don't think it's the real deal, but i've been wrong before

edit:
sorry if this is the wrong thread, seems like there are 10 threads about new toys...

Nice find! But the box art looks awful!

If it's a bootleg, they really paid attention to detail!

if this is the final product, and Im guessing that it is, then it's pretty obvious that Playmates hasnt put any effort into this so called *anniversary*. it's a disappointment to say the least.

IamtheKnight 01-06-2009 03:58 PM

Sure is. Sad isn't it.

I suppose it is if you were expecting a real live mutant turtle to call your own from Playmates and hadn't heard the news of re-issuing the original figures, but it's not like that the final product is a shocking development that's sending fans into tears or anything.

We've known about this for awhile.

I think the box art is just fine, its not like G.I. Joe did anything spectacular for there 25th, this is pretty much what I expected to look like what the originals did and they did that plus adding a original dvd which is cool, Thats if this is the real re-issue packaging.

NoPressApril 01-06-2009 04:35 PM

How cool. That packaging is sharp and a helluva tribute to the old line. I wish that Playmates had went with the tent hook instead of the J-peg but that's really minor. The inclusion of classic episodes on DVD is pretty sweet too. Now, I wonder which online retailers are going to be selling cases? :)

Candy Kappa 01-06-2009 04:47 PM

nice I want those

oooooooooh sarcasm... :lol:

I meant the lack of effort that they put into their packaging. every other toy line that has done commemorative figs has made a effort to present their reissues in a package that has usually complimented the original product. but its clear that playmates doesn't feel that the TMNT reissues are worthy of being presented to the fans like the Star Wars or MOTU reissues. and besides, this is just messy, 2 really large and unattractive stickers on the bubble, the card art doesn't match the originals, and I just love the way they tucked April in the corner on the bottom of the card like she doesn't matter. and why the hell is Mikey slanted in the bubble? I sure as hell don't remember that from the original line. yeah great job Playmates, you cant even display your figs in their package upright.

Candy Kappa 01-06-2009 04:55 PM

as long as the figure is fine I don't mind. I can't keep them in the box anyway I'd go CRAZY!:D

nice find. I guess that confirms my post in this thread

Jester 01-06-2009 05:13 PM

Wow, pant-less Shredder even made the box art, way to go Playmates. I wonder if we have 1 episode for all 12 figures or if we get 12 distinct episodes.

A little *too* Raph 01-06-2009 05:15 PM

maybe its a build-an-episode promotion

DonsAssistant 01-06-2009 05:16 PM

the krang on the back is strange...is it an accessory included with shredder???

I didn't expect casey. I thought it was the first 10 plus krang and slash. Interesting changes from what I expected

Roseangelo 01-06-2009 05:35 PM

If pantsless Shredder made it to inside the package, I am so buying that.

Archon_Turtle 01-06-2009 05:47 PM

It's an evil black diaper
