Mini figure possibilities+ coustom tips
 

I just got april and splinter from family dollar and I love them! In a way these are just as good and if not more practical for playmates to make than the regular action figures. dont get me wrong im still gonna shell out (no pun intended) 5.50 for each figure. but these ones are small, cheap, and are probly easier to make.

Here's my ideas for series:
Series one
Leo raph mikey and Don
series two
April Splinter shredder Foot soldier
series three
fighting gear


series three
Casey jones. hun, baxter stockman, mouser
series four
two ton, dragonface, angel , purple dragon leader
series five
nano, harry, garbage man, proffesor
series six
maskless foot(with the mechanical thing on his head), foot elite, foot tech,saki
series seven
quarry, razorfist, stone bitter, creepy guy in the crystal village
series eight
fire foot ninja, water foot ninja, metal foot ninja, wind foot ninja
series nine
earth foot ninja, other foot ninja, officer laird, officer eastman
series ten
Utrom in android suit, mr mortu, gaurdian with green hair, baldish gaurdian
series eleven
Fugitiod, federation gaurd, general blanque, the traitor
series twelve
Prime leader, general motzar, triceriton slave, triceriton gaurd
series thriteen
space hopin turtles

what do u think?

Mini figures? You mean Mega Bloks figures?

I believe Ray was refering to the actual mini-figures from playmates.

yea tmntman, I listed pretty much everyone but the unconivncing turtle titan episode and the shredder clones, i have to work them into four each u know?

I just made a cool custom discovery! Minifigures go great with plamobile! Raph is currently riding his shell cycle as you read this! :) just wanted to let everyone know

where did you get the mini's for a dollar? I only saw them at toy works for $5 :roll:

There is a chain called Family Dollar that has ordered them. Apparently they ordered quite a few since Playmates actually printed their price sticker on the card.

The ones KB got for $5 were 4 packs of the 4 Turtles. The new ones are only available individually carded for $1, and I've only seen them at Family Dollar. I'm very disappointed by the case assortment though, these are shipping in cases of 24, and the break down is:

4x Donatello
4x Raphael
4x Leonardo
4x Michelangelo
3x Splinter
3x April
1x Shredder
1x Foot Soldier


At $1 each, I was hoping to build a mini-Foot army, but I've only been able to track down a single Shredder and Foot Soldier so far.

I still need a Foot and a Splinter.... I haven't even seen a Splinter mini-fig yet.

Not at my kb toys..it was $5 for each mini figure. I got one for free there though since i bought the ninja turtles game there. I should get all of them for free since i worked there...

That's really odd then, it was probably a mistake. Because I've seen several of the 4 packs at a KB Outlet for $3.99.

thats a rip off! KB overprices on everything, theyre closing their stores down this year.

yeah, KB just filed for chapter 11. Serves them right, they ALWAYS overcharge with the exception of when the figures are 3 for $10 which never seems to happen anymore.

yea plus they have figures like ripped in half with no boxes for like full price

Yea, toy works does suck, I used to work at one. I had no idea they were closing. hahaha :lol:

KB filed Chapter 11 bankruptcy, but not all of their stores will be closing. K-Mart did the same thing(how long has it been, a year or two now?), and none of the 4 K-Marts around here closed.

I sent the list over to the playmates, along with this:
Is Playmates really committed in making the mini figures? I dont see why not? They are simpiler in make arent they? What figures do you have planned after Fighting gear turtles? I Would love to see everyone made, and for about a buck each its affordable too. great job on all your tmnt stuff they are excellent. here are my ideas:
what do you think? any possiblity? thank you for your time
*******
on sunday i sent that and i just got a reply:
Wow that is a lot of figures. I am not sure which ones are on the list but I will forward this to the marketing and developement department.

Well, all of the k-marts around me closed. And some were replaced by Targets.
