They should have just repainted the wave one TMNT. That would be awesome. But they would have different heights, and three toes. Playmates would be too cheap to do it.

You paid how much the figure is worth with how crappy his paint job is.

What sucks is that Baxger has my favorite design of any charecter. It's inexcusable for a figure to have missing paint on his teeth , neck, and mustache. I could've lived with missing spike paint but no the rest.

Every figure should come with at least 1 mouser.

Someone at toyark.com said he/she picked up Turtflytle at a Target. I don't recall where though.

I was trying to army build Squirrelanoids... so far I have 2 still lol.
I just loved that episode so much and all of it's 'lil nods to sci-fi and horror/suspense, specifically Alien.

Just went back to the store... aside from new art cards, mystic Donnie, Tiger Claw, mutation mix-and-matches, and some vehicles, nothing new yet. Darn. Wanted Turflytle. Or Slash... maybe.

I wrote an Amazon review warning people of the lack of paint on Baxter. Amazon was using the Playmates prototype as the picture on their website.

I've considered gathering a few myself, though a few basic paint apps would differentiate them some. I tend to no use the new Nick figures in my displays, apart from the Turtles (first wave) and Metalhead, but I love the Squirrelanoids, so when I get a little more work completed on my dio, I'll probably add a couple of them in one of the empty sewer spaces.

Do you think if we wait, that a later production run might have improved paint?

you have a better chance of hell freezing over. Also it still annoys the crap out of me that Half Shell Heroes are getting Pigeon Pete and Human Karai and Biotroid before the main line. I love pigeon pete.

Can we get more pics and a closeup on the drop head turtles?
Unpainted wraps again???

If Playmates hate wraps so much, they should consider working with Nick to remove the wraps and make it look like OT turtles.

Looks like wrist swivels are "en saga blott", a thing of the past.

Not sure about that, it looks like in some of the pictures in that video he had his wrists swiveled, he may have just forgot to mention it? I guess we will see
