The truth of the matter is children are the primary buyers of action figures, and children aren't sticklers for accuracy, and don't like to spend $69 dollars a figure. And even NECA turtles weren't successful enough to release the remaining figures they had planned. Its a niche market, something a mass production company like Playmates isn't looking to waste their time/resources on. I think of playmates collector line as something in between a standard kids line, and an adult line- for people who like turtles, but not enough to spend hundreds for movie or toon accuracy

The Half Shell Heroes are for toddlers not adults! Their $20 price point doesn't excuse their atrociously inaccurate heads, if you pay $20 for something it should at least look somewhat accurate.The half shell heroes are also $8 for 2 figures which is pretty cheap.
