I wonder how they will explain the fleshy look on the krang body in the movie. It looks kinda real. Did he get it from... A human?

I don't like the color of the joints on Raphael's legs. I would think they would be the color of his pants, not his skin.

How? Assuming the joint is molded in the green plastic, how would it be more expensive to mold it in the pants color?

IDW Krang's body came from a living humanoid he killed.

Yeah, that's super annoying to me as well. As is how neon their skin looks in these photos. I do really like them otherwise. Guess I'll have to see them on shelves in person to make my final decision.

I'm still waiting for the 4 bikes. Mostly for the alternative Bebop. Not sure is RS is different. And there's the action feature figures. I hope thet are not over sized like the last movie set were.
Although the action feature ones were closer to the size they were in the movie when compared to the other non-turtle figures.

Oh wow! So he could potentially kill a person in this movie to get his body?!

Heey, DVD!

Do you (or anyone else for that matter ) know anything about the new city sewer lair? It's based on the nick-lair.

The Technodrome and Kraang TMNT 2 toys were right on the money.

Yup.
I'm looking forward to this movie more and more.
The first made a ton of money here, but wasnt released till October.
Im in Europe in July so I should catch it there, but I do hope we still get it closer to its initial release date.

Back to toys.
Here's a comparison between paint jobs on Splinters.



Out of the box:


Oh, I'm not using flash so I don't create those neon colors that have been mentioned

I wasn't trying to suggest your flash was a problem, my friend! Just that the figures seem a lot more colorful than I had expected.

Haha. I wasn't having a pop, rather I was accepting that my photo skills need, some work
The pics I took, when I look at them are over bright.
With flash...


No flash...

So Splinter in the new film had his eyes scooped out apparently. Since they're pure black. Keep being mediocre Playmates.

Considering the uploader jacked those from DVD's scans I guess he knows it exists at least.

Haha! Yup, that's one of mine.
It's simply from the movie merc leaflet (I've got about 20 of those now).
The play set, the 4 bikes and the talking figures are yet to appear. They will, but not for a couple of weeks.
When they do, I'll dismantle the original play set, and display the movie variation . At that time, I'll upload pics.
Oh, I'm still waiting for the three Halloween figures as well.

Nice to see those new images above from the movie. Gotta check out tad full trailer.

His eyes looked like that in the movie a picture of him is in this review.

Splinter's new paint job makes him look even more like a dong.
