That's why I like the Wave 1 Turtles, I'm not a fan of the cartoon aesthetic. If I was a kid, I'd want more cartoon accurate ones, but as*an accurate representation of the Turtles in general, without be a precise version, the first wave does that, with great articulation and a great price point.

Courtesy of Figure Hobby Club from Tai Wan, they just finished a visit to the 3A/Threezero toy company and gave us a sneak peak of the upcoming 1:6 action figures based on the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2014 movie.
I personally think they look awesome. If it were figures based on the 1990 movie or the 2007 movie it would be an instant buy for me. The 2014 movie........ I don't know. Looks like Mikey will include his hover skateboard too. |

Wow! Whether or not you like the designs, you can't deny those are dope ass figures. The likeness is spot-on. What kinda price point will we be looking at? Despite how much I hate the film, I can't front, I want those. I feel you though, it's a waste that the crazy nice statues & those amazing figures there are based on Bayturtles & not Henson's.

I saw that pic of the Movie Turtles over on sideshow. They look good and they took they me by surprise. Three Zero are doing the Game of Theones figures and are a legitimate company.
I will be keeping my eyes open for these. They look like the are manufactured in a similar fashion to the Hulk Hot Toys figure. On another personal note, I just ordered the new Party Wagon. I do lile the look, even if it is a revamped movie van, or should that simply be, revaned. ? |

Nice! Those figures even make the designs look better somehow!
Sadly they won't be cheap. Threezero' anew Heisenberg figure is $150 so the turtles probably be at least the same which means $600 for the set. If they look as good when they're officially announced and they're spaced out well enough I might bite. |

Yeah, definitely cheaper than Hot Toys. Honestly I expect them to be a bit more as $150 Heisenberg is just a head scult, costume tailoring and any accessories as they can use a standard body. The guys are all going to be pretty much 100% unique sculpts including the bodies so they may end up nearer a more Hot Toys like $200-250 but again they are unique sculpts (for comparisons the standard version of Hot Toys new Hulk is $275 on Sideshow but can be had cheaper).
My main concern with getting these is if I get one then I know I'll want the set so it depends on how staggered they plan to release these. One at a time over say a year then I'll almost certainly get the set, full set all at once and I'll probably have to pass. |

Well, I preordered a Robocop figures from Threezero back in December and it was about $250USD if I remember correctly, but international shipping is included.
Robocop was a unique sculpt and features LED lights so I'm guessing the Turtles will cost the same ,some where below $300 w/ shipping included. Depends on how they turn out , I may or may not buy 1 or 2 of them. Or might actually ending up with all 4. |

So I finally saw my first Mystic Turtle. Just the one. It's weird how Mikey is supposed to be the most popular but whenever a wave of all of the Turtles comes out he's always the only one left at first around here (LARP Elf Mikey, Battle Shell, Mirage, and Mutations were the other times for me).
But egads! The unpainted apparel on his feet make it worse than I expected! It just looks like someone fell asleep at QC. It physically hurts to think that this is actually the norm for them

Soooo, am I the only one horribly disappointed that Lego, Minimates and this Half Shell Heroes line are all getting or have gotten human Karai before playmates even released any Karai? Cause this is just getting ridiculous.
