I was pretty impressed by the pics. I hope they have some decent quality control on them. Still, for the $$ you can't beat it!!

I bought these: http://www.aliexpress.com/item/High-...715791080.html
The price is $11.40 for the 6 figures, plus $9.87 shipping. total = US $21.27

I also bought a set of Nick Turtles a while back from this seller and was very pleased. Just purchased another set with the movie star turtles. You can get all 4 Nick turtles for around $12 bucks.

Again...I'll post pics of mine when I get them so you can see first-hand what they look like.

You happen to have the Playmate versions of this? Would love to see a side by side comparison of them.

I have the 4 movie turtles carded, but I just moved and they are stored away at the moment.

That's too bad... But when you get these if you can please show them side by side, or at least do a video review of the bootlegs, would love to add the movie star turtles to my collection but can't find the Playmates ones, if these are almost as good I would get them instead.

Yep.. will take many pix from different angles. If I can put my hands on the original playmates turtles to compare them I will. BTW...if you are looking to buy the originals on ebay, they can get pretty pricey.

That's what I'm trying to avoid lol I've spent enough on the 07 movie, the 03 series and the B&W NECA ones last month, my girl would kill me if I bought those too

And since they are releasing the Movie Classics I can get those to represent them, but would love to get some form of the original ones to add to the collection, even if it's just a bootleg...

Still better paint aps than modern Playmates...

(actually those are awesome. I especially like the grey movie Splinter. Just needs a robe.)

What went wrong?

Oh wow, it looks exactly like he stolen the clothes off Melf the Elven fighter-mage from Dungeons & Dragons, he got his own action figure in the AD&D toy line.

Yeah.. I don't believe the originals had painted weapons, right? And correct me if I'm wrong, but was there a Movie Star Splinter made without the faux fur? I don't believe so. I prefer the details of this bootleg to the one with the fake fur on it. I think I will repaint the bootleg the proper colors and get a robe for him from myteefinestuff/ebay.

Why don't you make a new fancy robe for mister splinter instead?

I'm considering it! I've done lots of customizing, but haven't done much sewing. Not sure how that would turn out!

I'd buy a lot of foot soldiers to build a small army. They look decent on the photos. I wonder what type of plastic they used - soft like original or harder.

I'm pretty sure they are harder plastic, not 'rubbery' like the others. I'll post details soon once they arrive.
