I don't know what I'm relaxing from. It was just a question.

mikeyatemypizza · 10-06-2016, 10:53 PM

Well don't relax then.

D Piddy 1982 · 10-07-2016, 04:49 AM

NECA are the TMNT kings right now...all hail

mikeyatemypizza · 10-07-2016, 07:26 AM

Agree 100%

Sorry. 30+ years of referring to the various TMNT giant figures as 12" is a hard habit to break.

I'm not into wraslin', but I actually like 'em. Assuming they keep all the paint as in the preview image, I think it would be fun to own Macho Man Mikey, as I could totally see him dressing up like that in the show as a gag.

They are not so bad, but I would have preferred they had used the 6" spot for the classic shredder and krang...

*Zulithe* · 10-07-2016, 09:32 AM

I know there is a lot of crossover appeal between Wrestling and TMNT fandom, so I get it...

Personally would never buy those, though.

Hope Playmates has more to show us.

BlueKatana · 10-07-2016, 09:49 AM

I'll get Leo/Cena for sure, with an early November release date I wouldn't be surprised if we start seeing sightings by the end of October. Those Walmart exclusive's tend to come out pretty quickly at least in my experience.

Insta-posted this on my FB page, along with a picture of the figures.

For those of you who don't know, the overall theme of my TMNT collection is the widest variety possible of different incarnations.
There are no words in the universe to express HOW MUCH these fit into that.

Not a huge WWE fan, and not featuring Rey Misterio, Randy Orton, Triple H or any of the more popular star among my friends (aside from The Undertaker) but these ARE COMING with me.

*Autbot_Benz* · 10-07-2016, 05:38 PM

regarding the WWE Turtles just read a Playmates press release that says they will have less articulation than most 6 inch figures

. Oh Playmates never change

Huzzah · 10-07-2016, 07:16 PM

I've never been a wrestling fan, so apart from just generally disliking what playmates classifies as their collectors figures, these are an easy pass.

nellyp · 10-07-2016, 09:02 PM

As someone who has been a life long TMNT and WWE fan, the wrestling variants are pretty cool.

*wpugh2424* · 10-07-2016, 09:31 PM

Huge fan of wrestling
These dudes are totally awesome

hitmonkey · 10-08-2016, 01:47 AM

I'm a huge wrestling fan, but I still think those look like crap. They look like something that should be released in the standard packaging in the 4 inch line. Wasting a spot in the 6 inch "collector" line on such half assed figures is absurd.

BigMike322 · 10-08-2016, 09:57 AM

I love the Sting/Raphael crossover.

I agree, except I'm not a wrestling fan

*Candy Kappa* · 10-08-2016, 01:36 PM

The wrestling figures is a novel idea, but using the "Classics" slots for it seems unnecessary. The articulation is on-par with the basic line, we already know what Playmates mean when they state 6", they mean that the figures will be 6 inches tall (or taller like the previous classics Turtles) and not 6" scale.

The accessories looks decent at least.

Look at my recent posts. I've included contact information for people in Nickelodeon's licensing department.
