this weeks Tmnt Figure Leatherhead - Page 2

FALLEN ELDOR · 10-16-2003, 10:22 PM

I liked the old one because he could walk upright OR on all fours. Its a great looking figure, and I'm glad to see some more mutants finally! BUT I am mad at the lack of ball point joint arm!

That's definitely the best looking toy from the new line, I love him. And the cartoon pic looks also awesome!

Yeah, I was kinda hoping that too, but if he's longer then the original figure, then that'll be good. He should be the same size as Hun at least, judging by the picture which isn't a bad size for him.

::nods:: The Bayou Leatherhead was cool & is one of my favorite old TMNT figures (I loved aligators & crocodiles as a kid, so a figure of a mutant one was like totally awesome to me

), but this guy seems to be more of the character from the original Mirage comic series. That's my guess why he walks a bit more upright too.

I'm thinking he's going to be, judging by his appearence & what I read in the small spoilers that say what happens in the episodes.

I'm thinkin' "Tail-Slashin'" more so, as it looks like the tail can move. Maybe pushing the button makes the tail strike at the left or right?

But I'd like him to either have jaw-snapping action, or at least have a mouth that can open.

A mutant aligator/crocdile without a moveable mouth is like a mutant bird without any wings.

::nods:: Yeah, I agree too. I totally think it's an action feature connected to the tail in some way.

YEAH, me too, that sucks.

I always find it crappy, when a figure of his size (which I'm guessing is equal to that of Hun's) doesn't have ball jointed shoulders. I mean, it has the room for them, why not include them??

Heh heh, that reminds me of that pick of Leatherhead in TMNT gear.

Nice stuff. I'll most likely pick this fella up.

lethrhd · 10-17-2003, 07:40 PM

... speechless, but I cant see him having his famous Cajun accent looking like that. I bet it will definitly resemble the old mirage gator but hey. HE'S IN THE NEW TOON!

OA · 10-18-2003, 12:40 PM

i wonder what his accessories will be....i hope he has a really big gun- it would fit him nicely

kj6754 · 10-18-2003, 04:39 PM

i wish his eyes were like they are in the drawing. he looks kind of bored. lol anyways its still a good figure because of the skin details.
