Brick wall pattern? You mean for card art? Like what the entire line was until they switched to the generic turtle cards? I don't think that pattern was a way to cut costs, it was the layout they used. None of the figure cards broke that layout except for deluxe gimmick figures like the wacky action or head dropping.
Now if you're talking like the reissue figures where it was like the turtles climbing around the sewer, THAT is cutting costs.
The only time Playmates used artwork for the new line was the sewer spewer, and it was glorious. Cool box art for a cool toy.
