He's an apologist, his opinions should always be discounted.

He's too nice in his reviews for my taste. I remember hatting his Stockman Fly review because he didn't bring up the missing mustache and teeth. Even when he complains it seems kinda positive. He would be a pretty decent reviewer if he was more critical.

I don't have the Mikey figure as I can't find it yet, but I agree based on the what I have seen of the figure. I might try to customize the nunchucks because Don needs a figure. It will look like something to throw to a dog, but it will work nonetheless.

It really would have been best if they had done the same thing with Rocksteady for Slash; bigger figure proportions instead of long skinny legs like Slash got.

Rocksteady is probably my favorite figure out of this line. The mutations gimmick allows for the movement the figure was going to get in the arms and legs for the most part. The size is obviously an improvement as well. Losing the movement at the wrists is really no big deal as is. I just kind of wished they would have given us goldish weapons.

That's 'cos he's getting free toys from playmates.
I would be too.

Sure wish the Mutations Battle Shells body suits actually covered the body(shell). Would've made for some cool variants instead.

There's something intensly disturbing about a Ninja Turtle figure, where you can crack open and remove their shell...

But will you get it?
I like it but i'm quite turned off by the missing paint on the wraps as usual.

The only appealing thing I can find about the Mutation Battle-Shell figures, are their head sculpt.

And I'm not paying $25 for a useless figure, only get their head for swapping with other figures. And yes, $25 will be the minimum price for these where I live.

Besides that, they look absolutely moronic, subpar paint (yet two tone bike-suit...) moronic gimmic with cracking up they regular shells which would be implausible for Turtles as the shell is a part off their spine, and the Mecha-Weapons battle shell looks just dumb.

In short. No, I won't get them. Unless I become stupid rich and buys them only for the head sculpt.

It's actually somewhat insulting to a child's intelligence.

[tw2thr3]

I believe they're roughly $13-14 each but as I mentioned they are the same as the LARP head sculpts if you're really looking

[Candy Kappa]

I know the prices in the U.S. But I'm not in the U.S.

$25 is the price of the Pet-to-Ninja Mutations figures, true story.

[tw2thr3]

Wow they were on sale 9.99 here those are another set I liked only for the head scuplts the rest of the toy not so much

Except the headsculpts are slightly smaller.

I'm not familiar with these battle shell mutations. Are they the ones that look like they have superhero costumes under their shells?

In mean time I added a boot mod to Mozar. Hopefully he'll look more like this upon release.

The Mutations Turtles are $20 in Oz, but I think they may have been $25 when they were brand new. That's $18.20 USD as of this moment in time. They are uuuuuuuugly.

Yay!! The first of my 11" metal space suit Leo's is here. Great figure.
I need two ( one more still to arrive) as one is going to be a wall display. These 11" figures need to be out of pack tho . I've opened every other 11" figure. They make great action pieces. Here's a fight between the Turtles and BB n RS.

[Powder]

Neat! Nick's "giant" turtles scale quite nicely with the old B&R, makes it look like an IDW comics scene, somewhat.

[DVD]

I like these big guys a lot.

Here's my Leo. Yup, you have a lot to answer for Powder. I wanted more signatures, so a couple of writers here - Brandon Auman and Ciro Nieli.

Open it...
