Keep an eye out!

Hope this helps.

They should just release them seperate.

I wonder if that means they'll continue shipping Bebop and Rocksteady WITH the four 1990 movie turtles or if the four 1990 movie tutles will simply be shipped by themselves and we'll see no more Bebop and Rocksteady figures released?

Despite their flaws, I'll be disappointed if I can't add Bebop and Rocksteady to my collection.

Bebop and Rocksteady kinda grew on me. THey might not look like they came out of the cartoon but at least we can identify them as the characters.

I think we will see all of the classic collection one more time. All the ones that say classic collection on the top right corner. Hopefully i still need the retros,
R&B are being shipped as i type =D

They'll get one more go, especially with how much bebop and rocksteady sold. They sold better than the turtles themselves I think. Great for your collection, I always loved them.

Did anyone else see the article on Toy News Int about the 1990 movie turtles?

We can also tell you that a 4th wave is already being planned and will contain two more figures for the Classics line. We can't tell you who they are yet but we will say they are two very BAD-ass figures. Stay-tuned for more details on those in the coming days.

So...bad guys? Shredder and Krang?

edit: Well, I checked it out and contacted them. Looks like I bought the last set. Sorry!

No problem, I appreciate you taking the time to check for me!! Thank you!

Enjoy them!

Thanks for the info, I wonder if the other 2 figs are Tokka and Rahzar? As Splinter isn't really a "Badass" character, and I don't think they'd do real life actors as figures.

*Discogod* · 02-28-2014, 05:41 PM

Please let it be 1990 Movie Shredder & Casey! I don't care how half-arsed they turn out (and they will), they'd be automatic buys.

*turtlefanforever* · 02-28-2014, 05:51 PM

It sounds like its part of the 1990 movie line still. If not there are endless possibilities. But I would live shredder and Casey. If Casey jones is one of them I prefer his mask be on in packaging because I never open these. I don't think they will do that though. Unless its 1987 Casey. Also either movie shredder, 1987 shredder or 2k3 shredder would be badass.

*Donatello19* · 02-28-2014, 07:25 PM

If you guys actually bothered to read it thoroughly, you'd see that they said badass FIGURES, not characters. It's probably OT Splinter and Shredder.

I was thinking since they emphasized BAD in badass that they meant two new villain figures. I bet it's Shredder and a Foot Soldier, or Shredder and Krang. I'm not sure how they would do Krang in this series though.

Rukitron · 02-28-2014, 09:46 PM

a build a figure Krang would be a horrible headache.

I'm crossing my fingers there's still hope of doing a wave of 4 consisting of: April, Splinter, Shredder, Krang (he'll be sadly really off scale) and they all come with alternate happy turtle heads for each turtle. (or is there a third party company making these?)

Cowabungawolf89 · 02-28-2014, 11:14 PM

It will probably end up being Shredder and Splinter since they were considered to come next. We'll see though.

*turtlefanforever* · 03-01-2014, 12:46 AM

I hope splinter isn't part. That tall scale and articulation splinter probably won't look that good. I would love Krang, him and shredder are top priority for me. Krang more so then all. But badass could be any of the following. Ranging from most logical to pretty much no way. Shredder, splinter, Casey, tokka, rhazar, April, Foot solider, Karai, slash, Irma.

And there's a Ton of wildly ridiculous but Would be cool if they made it. (I just included slash because of the badass statement but he is still in the not so likely) now onto this list. The Next mutation, turtles, (savant has the rights though) Dragon Lord, Silver, any of those enemies really. 2003 shredder, Lotus blossom, and there's just so many more that aren't worth mentioning cause there is no way like some of the ninja tribunal enemies, and other villains from that series. I didn't include Hun because I don't think they could scale him right with his tiny head and huge arms and torso along with his tiny legs.

joefsas · 03-01-2014, 02:57 AM

I hope the next two 'bad-ass' figures are from the original toon rather than the movie. I'm not keen on the new movie figures anyway and it will look so much cooler to have new characters next to the toon turtles, Bebop and Rocksteady.

Spidergreg · 03-01-2014, 03:11 AM

Pretty much any non turtle figure gets me excited now. Hope it's OT foot soldier + shredder.

*Discogod* · 03-01-2014, 03:58 AM

Playmates have to realise that if they make a Foot Soldier, whether it's from the original 'toon, movie, whatever - that's basically a license to print money. I know I'd buy at least 4, if they were well-done and with a full compliment of articulation.

joefsas · 03-01-2014, 04:03 AM

I wouldn't have thought Playmates are that switched on. But then again, like you said, if they were done right people would go nuts for em!

'pound signs'!!!
