Picked up the Leo and don go kar-I mean patrol buggies...hehe. The shooting off the front is powerful, and I love that a turtle can hold the missile level while driving.

Dude, listen to yourself. That's like saying (for example) that since more Raphael figures were sold over Michelangelo's, Mikey's reputation would plummet. The figures don't really have that much to do with the character they're representing on the show, and I assure you that the figure's sales will not affect the character in the show in any way.

I wasn't really referring to sales so much as people liking the figure. I'm always reading about people associating their favorite characters from the past with their action figures. I am hoping kids and collectors enjoy him is all.

No need to worry you already said it yourself after all if a mutant alligator doesn't sell, then we're in trouble. Besides he's more articulated than any other Leatherhead figure truth be told and he is a mutant gator. Who wouldn't want to buy that am I right or am I right?

Leatherhead is small so just call him mini LH. Baxter is cool enough and Snakeweed is a baws.
Now bring on Chong and Rat King!
I hope sometime down the line we get Karai, Kraang Prime, Mutagen Man after Spider and Newtralizer.

Pics or it didn't happen I still haven't seen any on ebay soooo I'm hesitant to believe they are in the wild yet. Could it be any day now? Yes, definitely. But they usually hit the west coast first. The reason for that is probably because we're closer to China

Yes! eBay has almost always been the first place I could locate things.

Pocky Bandit at Rangerboard bought LH and Snakeweed at Target, so I'm pretty sure they're out.

haha I know right? Generally, I've heard the San Fran Area gets the newest stuff pretty quickly. I'll email him and see if he will post a pic. I don't know why he wouldn't want to fuel our hunting rage haha

2013 TMNT Figures is a ton of figures. I probably have less than 100, and only 5 from the modern line. So far nothing past the fab four have been of interest. The 5th is Shredder which I regret buying.

I just noticed that LH doesn't have the choking hazard label on his box.

I just kinda noticed this, But maybe the reason LH is so small is because he appears hunched over in figure form?

His pose does play a big factor in his size. While he was shrunk down proportionally, his pose makes him look much smaller than he would be standing up. Here is a good photo showing the difference in scale:
