Best Action Figure line
Which was the best? Fred Wolf, Next Mutation, 4Kids, 2007 movie, Nick, or Bay Turtles?
I vote Fred Wolf. The figures were bright, fun, and had some cool action figures. I especially love the soft goods. |
i voted the Fred Wolf because i have the most history with and memories but they are all great and memorable lines
|
I have a natural affinity for the FW turtles but if I saw those Nick turtles in stores as a kid they would easily replace my originals. 2k3 had the best lair and vehicles to me though.
|
no option for 2016 oots figures.:cry:
|
I'll always remember how in awe I was of the first wave of the 4Kids figures. It was probably Wal-Mart where I first saw them. Just seeing the new Turtle sculpts with a load of accessories, all fully-colored, was an incredible feeling. Amazingly, my mom bought me the whole set as a surprise. I was a college sophomore and my roommate and I had a ton of fun posing them in our dorm.

Strictly Playmates, you mean? The original, no doubt about it. 4kids' started off wonderfully, the articulation was decent, great paint apps (even painted weapons!) but it quickly went down the tube in a fashion similar to that of Nick's, so I gotta give my vote to the OG's. Those funky characters/sculpts, the craziest variants ever, super creative weapons, unique card art bursting with life, lots of color, more variety than you can shake a stick at, the vehicles, playsets, just so much dopeness.

Also, Michael Bay has nothing to do with the toys. We don't call the 1991 movie "Pressman turtles". |
The original "Fred Wolf" inspired toyline was by far the best.
Playmates has gone seriously downhill ever since in creativity, sculpting, and paintjobs. There's just no love for what they're producing now and it's all so lacking. |
The OT line. Nothing comes close.

I thought Mew was like your best buddy, but lately you're busting his chops a lot over technicalities. Is a divorce in the works? |

I think you've got me confused with the image in your mirror bud. Unless, of course, you already broke it.

That burn was so sick you made it to the front page of the drome times. I'm crushed. |

I really dug the 2007 figures mostly because of the scale and articulation.
|
The originals are still the best all things considered. Later lines started strong, but didn't go the distance, and while the original Playmates run went in some weird directions, the build and design quality didn't seem to suffer.

I gotta say, this is some pretty good stuff.

This thread is amazing. Good work, Powder and Snake. Heck, even Jonah J. Jameson would approve.
