That could so happen in Turtles Forever!

Yeah, but they'll probably make them minus the cool stands and all.

I'd still buy them if they were made.

I could see myself getting one of the green if possible, and maybe two of the yellow (for a custom), but I'm going to go with blue for my majority purchase (already have got a guy that's going to try to get me at least three).

The yellow one grew on me already.


I realized what made the figure ugly was not the yellow color but her face and shape of the jumpsuit. Its not the colors fault the figure is ugly


I do hope turtle variants w/colored bandanas do appear. I was about to get them today but I just couldn't they are all the same figure! I don't need four raphs! Ironically Raph was the only missing turtle (another factor why I didn't get them). They were also $30 which is another reason I didn't get them.

Is $30 about right for the singles?

I know they're all the same color, but I'm not sure I completely agree with that. Even with all red bandannas, I can't see any of the other three as Raph at all. Maybe I've just become accustomed to those specific facial expressions, but I feel like the different head sculpts do a great job of portraying each Turtle's personality.

At any rate, if we DO end up getting color variations for the four Turtles, I'm hoping the color variation is more than just the bandannas. Like, say, the skin color, the elbow and knee pads, and the wrist straps.

Four Raphs? It's more like a standard Body, since all four turtles got red bandannas.
and it's easy to tell them apart with different head sculpt, hand sculpt, belt knot and Leo got scabbards.

If there would be multi colored turtles, then they should make new figures altogether then using the comic turtles

Then they wouldn't be variants, they'd be new figures.

If they were to make new figures, I'd rather they do other characters than characters they've already done.

I think NECA should step outside of comics for a wave or two and give us some nicely sculpted, super articulated 2k3 Toon turtles, Shredder, Karai, and Agent Bishop.

They haven't even really given us a wave 2 yet. I say stick with the original comic characters. We already have figures of the 2k3 characters.

I'm not sure how well I'd take to Jim Lawson Turtles, personally. Though that's just my own personal preference.

From the looks of these Turtles (and what I've been able to gather from the two creators' art over the years)... they seem to be Peter Laird Turtles. I wouldn't mind seeing some Kevin Eastman Turtles!

You say that as if they've released a ton of figures already, when all that we've gotten so far is just the four Turtles. They're just now barely going to release April, and who knows when we're getting the other three figures from Wave 2. I say they should stick to the comics. Nobody else has ever done them before.

That's disappointing if they've dropped the blue suit. It looked more natural.

I'm pretty sure the blue suit is still on track for the SDCC exclusive. It's just sad that that isn't the default retail version.

In package picture. I hope I can get my hands on this one. I prefer it over the yellow and green ones.

Here's how the variants look. I don't like this, I'm already tempted to snatch these ones up too. I really don't need that many Aprils...
