But Karai's human head fits perfectly on the April body, so that should at least be an easy custom...

Here's an image if you don't want to go t'the video


Honestly Youtube videos of an image scan are one of the dumbest things ever.
As happy as I am to be getting an Atilla (he is my favorite)...no Napoleon? No Dave or Dread Beaver?
I am dissapoint.

It's a neat figure. Head size is perfect for a custom if you want to build human Karai.
For me , I still like Baxterfly.

The head here is good. I'd prefer better body paint apps, but I'm ok with it .
wow. just wow.
i've always supported Playmates but now....GOD
Karai looks ok but Stockman....looks unfinished. Like a factory prototype. I hope it's not the final figure...urrgggg. Rubbish.

Yet you bought them anyway. Yes, let's all reward Playmates for putting in as little effort as possible.

Yes! Mikey, "buzz buzz"!

Not really interested in getting any of these figures, though. I agree that the lack of paint on some of these leaves something to be desired.

Although if Playmates did make a Dave Beaver, I would kinda want it.

I don't care if I buy them. I am because I wanted those figures in the first place. "Vision Quest" has been one of the best episodes this season, and I'm not passing on these. However, I'm mad at Playmates. I might as well get white paint markers to color in their wrist and foot wrappings.

If your mad at them stop giving your playmates money.

Not buying the figures won't help because a ton of kids and completist will buy them too.

I gotta get 'Mystic Leonardo' since it's the first & only Seth Green Leo at the moment. I'm building a Leo collection wall to display all previous incarnations with one figure per voice actor (today I got 'Leo The Knight' to represent Jason Biggs). Sadly there's no figure directly made of Dominic Catrambone's time on the show, or is there...?

Nope, but a basic Leo would represent him.

Baxter is one of the few though that did get a human version before his mutation.

Now I will buy this new one to custom up the first figure using the new Baxter body. Soon I will have an unmutated/Unrobo-suited Baxter, cool

Yep, because of popularity and nostalgia the turtles have been and will be around for awhile and it may not help to not buy the figures to show playmates just how bad their figures are, but that is the choice the unpopular voter makes.

A person never needs to like something just because everyone else does.

I liked the Vision Quest episode as well, but I actually thought they could have had two episodes to represent their vision training. It just went too fast in my opinion.
