the Official site Added prototype pix of the Space Hoppin' TMNT and the Mini Fighting Gear TMNT.
hm...I love the mini Fighting Gear allot but I'm not so shure about the space hoppin tmnt....I actully liked the ones they had up at the comicon allot better because they looked like the ones from the show....but I guess these are ok Dan said the colors may change from what they are now so we shall see..but I do love the guns they come with. let's also hope that the visors may become translucent which I am sure they will or the toy won't look that great.it's also nice to see they kept the jointed fingers.
I've also noticed something allot if not all of the tmnt figures coming out remind allot of jim lawsons art....he's not my fave tmnt artist but it's just something I noticed...and found odd....his art has always been out of perportion to me..and it kinda shows in the toys.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Space Turtles! :D

hmm so that messes the whole minifigure thing up rite?

didn't they have astronaunt turtles in the old line? anyways these look way better tham the old ones.

im so glad they changed the space hopping turtles. these look so much beter than those things before.

That would be the Apollo 11 Ninja Turtles. While on the subject of new action figures, I spotted the Xtreme sports Leo, Don and Mikey at K-Mart yesterday, no Xtreme sports Raph though.

Ohh boy, here we go again hehe.

So what you're saying is, that these babies aren't being released at all!!!!

Ok. These have to be like the earlier earlier prototypes. Cause, they better not end up coming out looking like this. The other versions were series Accurate. Mikey's Triceraton suit even still having a tail. :x :dead:

I'm kinda confused. Are these what they are going to look like instead of the ones pictured before?

I think the old sculpts look more like the new ones.

I did notice that they were bulky, so are the new figure sculpts pictured here going to be inside the other figures?

Argh, and I was really liking the tentative lineup for the third series of mini figures. Darn.

Well, it does say Prototype. And they don't really look all that much like Turtle Bodies. So I'm hoping that these are just kit bashed mock-ups instead of what they changed to. Cause I wanted the more show accurate versions. This just looks.....stupid. :(

Yup, no interest in any of these.

Here's the Mikey one (Ignore the fact it says Raph), with the tail. See, now these would have rocked. Show accurate, and kick butt. These knock-off looking Space figures, make the X-Treme Sports turtles look like gold. :(

Yeah, i like those ones the better. The other ones don't even look TMNT related

While I do agree, and would rather have the concept (though I probably still wouldn't buy it), I can see why they changed it.

The concept isn't much more than a big bulk of a plastic with a huge plastic tail (which would be hard to package). There's absolutely no way to know it's a Ninja Turtle except by a face in the helmet. There's not much play value in that.

So they resculpted them to be more recognizable as Ninja Turtles. Makes sense for Playmates, but a bummer for us.

Actually, we don't know that yet. Dan Berger specifically calls what was posted "Prototypes" so they could easily have been pictures of the early kitbashed figures. As for the tail, only Mikey's figure would have had one. I still don't think the prototypes that were posted are what will come out. I've sent E-Mails to Dan to get him to investigate. :)

man I hope that they do not come out!! They look really crappy. I know playmates can do better then this. Lets just hope they do better on these toys.

actully I like them there not total crap I hope you all went to the page to see the other photos!!!!!
please do if you havn't it's rude to our good friend dan heh.
I doubt this is the finished product just like what we saw of other figures shown at toy shows they are very differnt from what dan shows us on the official site.

I dunno if I liked these much. Way too much like the original line.
