I hope they make a Shredder, it's one of the reasons I bought the turtles, to keep the line going. It might be the one thing Playmates can triumph NECA in, actually releasing a well articulated shredder figure. I do worry about his scale.

Yeah I hope Shredder and Splinter gets released too. Both versions of them would be nice. I might be dumb for saying this but I'm still gonna stay optimistic until this line dies. That's just where I stand on this regardless if my wishes come true or not. If i don't get the other versions of the fab four i'll just be satisfied with the 87 and 90 variants.

My approach is to keep my expectations low, so I won't be so disappointed as I was after getting the turtles and seeing how wrong the "Classics" label is. But my association with a line labeled "Classics" might be marred by the excellent toy line Masters of the Universe Classics.

Now, THAT is a Classics toy line.

Yeah the Masters of the Universe line is pretty awesome. I also liked those new Figuarts Power Rangers too.

If you really think that Playmates could make better Mirage TMNT figures than the NECA versions, then you obviously have some kind of mental problem.

And saying that there were going to be movie figures was hardly going out on a limb - it was pretty much a foregone conclusion.

Can't wait either. As long as its nothing like the funko pop ones though even though, I know it has nothing to do with them.

Man, I am SO with you. Is it just me, or has there been a serious rash of this crap lately, where people are just trying to draw you in to their usually useless threads.

The next person who does it is gonna get a virtual punch in the arm.

They look pretty great, I really like what Figurearts have done with a lot of their figures, sadly they are a bit too rich for my blood and not my favorite scale.

Or in the "2014 figures" thread, or the "turtles classic action figures" thread.

The title of the thread seems to suggest otherwise.

I'm sorry man. I'm picking on you. I'm not being cool right now. I'm not even actually upset about this.

Sorry to be such a jerk. It's snowing where I live, and it's cold

I lost interest in this line quickly, the turtles aren't bad but they weren't what we were promised. R&B being the only releases and being a different style than the turtles from the same line killed it for me, and I actually don't hate the designs.

I still want to get the four turtles but they don't sell them here and online stores aren't shipping to Mexico which is odd, I've never seen that restriction and it makes no sense, I can ship other toys that are licensed here and TMNT toys are being sold here except the classic line.

For wave 3 I think we'll probably get Shredder/April/Splinter, that is IF we get a Wave 3. I don't see them doing much else after that. And to think how hyped we were for this line just a few years ago.

Wave 3 was already annouced. Its the 1990 movie style turtles
