What's The Worst Playmates Toys Figure?
 
Exactly as the title says. In your opinion, what playmates toys figure is the worst? Be sure to state why you think the figure is the worst. It could be from any line. The original one, the next mutation, 2k3, or even the new one (though I think the news ones are some of the best).

Most disappointing for me was Agent Bishop. For a nimble guy, he had pretty terrible articulation, and for some reason a red hand (I guess that was supposed to represent his battle suit?). Also his weapons were just General Blanque's. Blanque was a lame figure but at least he was a bland character, too, so it worked. And finally, Bishop's face looked like it was a monkey's with sunglasses.

I always thought the original shredder was pretty horrible. He was impossible to pose and he just didn't look very intimidating.

Wait a minute...

Deja Vu!

I'm afraid there is very little new content on the internet.

there are so many, and so many i never owned, that i can't really comment accurately. I will say that the Nick Kraang figure is pretty bad.

I was sorry to hear that one got some of the worst reviews. It was actually the one I was most tempted to buy when I first heard about it.

The only bad things are his articulation and that he can't stand very well.

I've heard a few people say they aren't crazy about the paint on him. But I guess that's really a matter of opinion.:ohwell:

The Nick April is pretty sad.

At the moment not a fan of the Dogpound figure.

Maybe if we're lucky they will give him another shot. It's getting to the point now where a secondary line is needed for larger characters.

He can't stand very well which greatly limits posability, but that's not the worst part, the worst is that the Kraang brain inside is very easy to damage. His arms will break off very easily even if you're very careful. Mine haven't but... I have seen countless pictures of it.

Chrome Dome or Mutagen Man... Both figures just fell apart in my hands as a kid that always bothered me.

I think maybe you're just way too rough with your toys, or perhaps unlucky. As a lad none of mine just fell apart. They only did so via wear and tear.

Oh you cut me deep... I take care of my toys, I mean yeah it was after playing, but still it surprised me when Chromedomes chest fell apart and the one time when I moved Mutagen Man's arm and came away with a nice souvenir. I had the same thing happen with a friend's chrome dome as well and that was while he was using it

As terrible as that figure might be, I'd totally love to own it just for its strangeness!
