Rise of the TMNT toy speculation/discussion/announcement thread

[Candy Kappa]

I think there's more things then just "show bad", cause Rise isn't a bad show, it's pretty darn good and of what I've seen it seems to be pretty popular among kids and teens.

Instead. Action figures is a dying thing, kids stops with them younger and younger and it's become more of a nostalgia collector thing. Toys r us is dead as well as other large toy store retailers around the globe, and Playmates might be careful not to flood a semi-niche marked with too much stock like they did with some of the 2012 waves and movie figures.

And maybe Playmates is aware that their Rise figures isn't all that great either, so they keep the flow on a minimum, cause those Basic Turtles figures looks pretty awkward.

Yeah, I can’t believe it’s been about six months since I found the Battle Shell wave and no new basic figures since. And people still seem to be having trouble finding that wave.

Still have yet to see any Battle Shells in my area. I looks at 6-8 Targets or Walmarts depending on the week.

A friend of mine picked up battleshell Mikey and his head doesn't fit on the regular torso like Leo's did. Wanted to share before you bought them all.

[Candy Kappa]

Thanks for the heads up

I want a Rise Leo not made by Playmates.

[Candy Kappa]

I want Rise Turtles Revoltechs so badly. It'd be perfect for the Amazing Yamaguchi line for non Marvel and DC entry, they're already branching out with a new Optimus Prime

God, please, I need it.

[Zulithe]

all battle shells in stock on walmart.com for around $9, except leo who stays around $20 for some reason. but yes they are hard to find, and the baddies from that wave.

Not expecting revo or other import versions of the Rise characters. Would be a shock to me.

[Candy Kappa]

Is Rise showing in Japan? Import toys depends on the popularity of the show I guess, we did get Revoltechs of the 2012 figures and Bandai did SH Figuarts of the FW (retro stock art) Turtles

[Ninjinister]

I haven't seen any product restocks all year. Nothing has gone completely empty, but even in stores that are down to 2-3 figures have sat that way for months.

[sdp]

In my country Rise turtles never even came, some stores still have shelfwarming 2012 stock.

[Candy Kappa]

Same. I’ve not seen a single Rise product on the shelves. We have at least episode 1 dubbed in Norwegian. But stores that do have TMNT is petty leftovers that no one bought in 2012’s toy line heyday

[Oculus Orbus]

I can't speak for everywhere in Europe, but Rise of the TMNT toys never made it to Spain nor France.

[IndigoErth]

Battle Shells finally showed up at my Walmart. Had a weak moment and went ahead and got Leo. The proportion differences compared to the basics is... interesting. I do like Leo's head sculpt better on it and the eyes look less... I dunno, over-medicated?

Love the little throwing knives as the mystery gear. (Is this random or do they all get the same, I wonder?) About this limp sword though... lol

I know mega constroxs or whatever it is has the rights to TMNT but I saw the trailer for a new Lego series Nickelodeon has so I'm just gonna make this up in my mind knowing this won't be real

But what if rise Lego sets came out

I think I whould want sets like

The shellraiser
The shell hog
and the technodrome (IF THE TECHNODROME WILL EVEN EXIST IN RISE)

So yeah what do you think and what should I add

Idk if this is the right thread though

LEGO had the rights for TMNT before and it flopped hard, don't expect them to waste money on the property again any time soon.

And no, I do not believe this is the right thread for it.
