I don't know about the rest of you, but I hate the varients. I wouldn't mind if they were in different outfits from the show, but the ones they come out with are just rediculous. When a new wave of figures comes out, how annoying is it to have to wade through the abyss of varients to find an Utrom Exoskeleton or a Guardian Ninja, only to find that they are sold out. And you know those varients are just gonna sit there for months until they get clearanced out.

Its as if there's some board room at Playmates where the president goes, "All right people, we need ideas for more TMNT figures, anyone?"

And in the back, someone sheepishly raises his hand and says, "Sir, how about another varient series?"

The hot new-girl goes, "That's a great idea, how about the Turtles as firemen?"

Then the company's computer guy says, "Excuse me, sir, but how about creating some of the characters that are actually on the show? You know, like the Utrom Shredder..."

The room is utterly quiet as everyone stares...



New-girl breaks the silence with, "OR, we could do NASCAR turtles, with mullets, I think that would go over well..."

Momentary pause, and then... the slow clap, started by the President, who is then joined by the others in a rousing chorus of applause.

I think someone just earned a promotion.
