TMNT Classics Collection Wave 3

[raph27]

This is pretty off topic but can you get the OT CCs anymore? I want one set of CC turtles and I wanted the movie set but the heads suck. Any place to find the old ones? TRU? I know the Nick store at Nick Universe has them but they're $25 a pop. Yikes.

I'd try eBay. We wary of overseas sellers though. There are a lot of bootlegs out there.

Here you go. Shipping is alot of money though and I don't know what the tax is gonna be.

You also have to be wary of Amazon for bootlegs when the items you are buying do not say: Ships from and Sold by Amazon.

If it's a 3rd party seller on Amazon, you can easily get duped into buying bootlegs. I bought some Doctor Who dvd's a few years ago that were definitely bootlegs. I'll never do that again... Always make sure they are being sold directly by Amazon. BTW... that link given for the turtles on Amazon are NOT sold by Amazon, so beware.

So are Krang and Shredder wave 4 this year or 2015? anybody have a ballpark month answer?

If that's the case then what incarnation of turtles would be next? 2k3?

Well aren't the comic turtles part of the classics collection? I figure that'd be considered the next wave. And I'd be fine with that. I really want some Next Mutation Turtles.

It hurts my wallet to type this, but I'd be open to more accurately scaled "cartoon" turtles. Maybe closer to the 5" scale of the new "original comic book" turtles?

That's if, as others have suggested, the new "original comic book" turtles aren't classified as "Wave 5". If those figures are "Wave 5", then the next wave should be another two new characters (possibly April and Splinter).

I'll take all incarnations to be honest

Next Mutation, 2k3, Comics, 2K7. I know fans hate Next Mutations so we probably won't see them, but still a 34 point articulation in a 6" scale would be cool. I mean just because the show sucked doesn't mean the figures have to suck. I really hope we get the Comics and 2k3 ones above anything though.

They won't scale the comic turtles down it wouldn't make sense to drop from 6 to 5 inches. They're gonna be the same size as the other turtles but they will have different molds though. Also, Them making another 1987 cartoon set would be pointless. They didn't do to well on their eyes but overall the 87 figures were great so why waste a wave duplicating the same incarnation? If there is going to be another cartoon set it's going to be 2k3 ones.

its true the 88 figures were great, and still my favorite figures but honestly i wouldn't mind a re sculpted more cartoon accurate CC figure before another 88 re release that they did 4 times now

Has anyone else NOT yet gotten their shipping confirmation from Toys R Us? I ordered at 10 like everyone else when they went live and still nothing.

[Matt2310]

wave 5 would be cool to have the movie figures redone for classic collection... i really dig the new turtle looks but the new 5" figs just dont cut it

There is nothing "classic" about the new movie. Hope and wish for those in 20 to 30 years.

[Cowabungawolf89]

If wave 5 is going to be another turtle set then the safe bet would be either the Comics, 2k3, or the unlikely Next mutation.

[DVD]

With the release of the Comic Turtles in standard form, that set would be the obvious set of Turtles for the third set of Classics. Assuming they follow that trend of course. Personally I'd like to see them visit more characters.

[Matt2310]

id prefer other characters also like april splinter... etc... but most likely not going to happen and id much rather have the new turtles redone into classic collection style figure than stupid 2003 or the next mutation that i GUARANTEE they will not make

or even the nickelodeon turtles redone to the classic collection form

They'll do more characters after a third turtle set because the turtles alone sell pretty well so they do it as leverage to keep their line going. Probably wave 6 would Splinter and April.

How do you know they're not going to make the 2k3 turtles? For all we know they could already have them planned out.

[DVD]

I've no doubt that the other characters will come out. I don't mind Turtles sets, but I'm more excited for characters. I really enjoyed the BB n RS set. The Shredder and Krang look cool , and those will be around Christmas time I'd guess.
