I'm wondering why the pre-order. Do they anticipate this being a hot xmas item or something? I would rather a pre-order for the Rocksteady and Bebob classics! Now THAT would be useful.

12 - 14" tall. So about the the same height as the pillow buddies. Hmm...
These are much much smaller than the pillow buddies. Here is a picture of my 4 year old with one at the MOA. He calls it his "baby mikey" since it's so much smaller than his pillow buddy Mike.

They also seem to be FW-based.

Do you maybe remember where you found the Playmates plush pic (not that I spent 20 minutes on Google already trying to dig it up)? I'd love to take a peek at them

They were shown at the Playmates panel at SDCC. For some reason we can't post the picture here They're called "Ninja Practice Pals".

Yep, it works!

I just think that Don and Mike's arms are way too big, so they look a little weird. Their arms are skinnier than Leo and Raph's after all.

Same but I am still curious about the nick universe versions. I really like the bodies on them. The heads/smiles are just kinda 'eh'

This gives you an idea of their size, sorry for the crappy phone pic.

Cool. Yeah I'd like to get the smaller ones, we'll see. I have one of the pillow buddies (leo), I love it, but all 4 look the same except for the color and a strap added on leo and don. they are nice quality but I wish they'd put some more effort into capturing the likenesses

Hmm...the mouths on Leo, Don and Raph are different then pictures we've already seen (in which all their mouths are closed like Mikey's)...I think they look better this way!

Hey you're right... the mouths were one of the few downsides on these, and it looks like that isn't even an issue since they are different.

Here's a better look at their faces. I like them pretty well, the pillow buddies are my favs but these guys aren't too shabby. Don and Raph have long bandanas and Mike and Leo have very short ones.

Their hands look big too, you think they have weapons?

Bumping this thread up a bit, but... question!

Has anyone in Canada had any luck finding the big "pillow pal" guys? More and more of my family/friends are having kids lately, and I've decided this would be a good gift for them... but unfortunately I haven't been able to find any where I live.

Thanks in advance.
