Do you guys wish they’d re-release those expensive '90s TMNT toys?

I'm talking about the '90s TMNT toys that now cost over a hundred bucks, like the Android Body Krang (both big and small), Toon Shredder, and the Channel 6 van. I really hope they re-release them someday in the future. It’d be awesome to get my hands on the vintage Channel 6 van without having to drop over a hundred dollars on eBay. I know they wouldn't be the original versions, but it would be nice to have them in my room.

Playmates re-released Shredder, PRESS April, and the Party Wagon, so I can see them re-releasing Toon Shredder and the Channel Six van with April. I’m not sure if they have the molds to both of the Android bodies though. The small Krang came with Shredder in 2009. It’s always a possibility that Playmates could re-release all of that. Have you e-mailed Playmates about this?

I never in a million years expected to see the Toilet Taxi back on store shelves (much less the Wacky Action logo). Anything is possible at this point.

I did just now. Hopefully they replay back. Is [email protected] the right email? I googled it online.

I had a 1998 re-release of the small Android Krang figure back in the late 90s. I regret giving it away years ago. It's crazy how expensive the small versions are on ebay today. Even the 1998 re-release ones are high.

The small Krang in Android Body was one of the top 3 original Turtles figures I always wanted - the other two were Casey Jones and Slash but they've now been re-released, although I haven't seen them in the UK yet (but I did just get the new Pop! Vinyl Slash in Smyths Toys).

Yeah, it’d be sweet if they re-released those. Nostalgia’s real, but the current prices are wild. I'd be fine with a reissue that’s close to the original

Playmates re-released the Toon Turtles, so now all they need is the soft goods and heads for the Undercover Turtles.

Could always use new things to drag out into the woods and shoot at.
