The toys r us here got the Batman v Superman ones of these so hopefully these will also come to Canada. If the price is right I would pick them up cause I like the overly stylized cartoony look. There are a lot of these coming out as you eluded to but choice isn't really a bad thing, unless people are compelled to get all of it cause...ouch.

Choice is great, absolutely, I just wish we had more of a choice on which version of the turtles we got... At the very least, if all these companies are gonna do is "retro" turtles, they could at least use the actual Fred Wolf color palettes. I can forgive the big head stuff 'cause it seems to be one one of the only loopholes allowing third parties to produce TMNT goods.

Anyway, I wonder what costs are like getting the license to produce a small collectors wave of figures like this, the numerous things Funko has done, Loyal Subjects, etc. I would love to put a line together...

If you have to ask, you can't afford it.
