Why do I get this awful feeling that this item may become some sort of a 'holy grail' in the future?

I mean, if I bought the Prof. Perry 2 pack then I imagine I will buy this. Now give us Bubble Gum Girl and I'm out. In fact that might just cap my entire toy career, I've probably been buying TMNT merch for the past 34 years in what will turn out to have solely been a subconscious effort to get as close as possible to the girl I used to make out with through TV screen (to make my friends laugh...no other reason). XD

professor perry was actually in the movie though in a significant role

I'd rather have the black lady that got her TV stolen. At least she had a part in the movie, unlike the Mr 70's porn stache trash man action figure

Without ‘Mr. 70s porn stache trash man’, we wouldn’t have TMNT.

Doesn't mean we need a useless figure of him.

I'd much rather have a figure of him, than 4 identical figures with different paint from a crappy Christmas special for $175 shipped.

Note that I'm not saying I don't want those, but, relatively speaking, I want them less.

Marvel Legends fans have their Stan Lee figures; what’s wrong with shellheads having a Kevin Eastman figure? NECA made Oroku Saki and Hamato Yoshi for their movie line before Fred Wolf fans even got an Oroku Saki. I hope NECA does Peter next because he will be barely noticeable as a police officer in Super7’s 2k3 line.

Stan lee figures are useless too.

I know playmates or someone else are doing Eastman/Laird "vintage style" figures to fit into the vintage line. So that should make you happy. Neca is probably going to do laird too (will be another waste).

Give me relevant characters like punk Sam Rockwell, Chief Sterns, and a foot soldier/Black lady with chair and TV for the foot to steal- 2 pack (at least she was in the movie and not deleted out)

It's not Playmates that is doing these but some of the original sculptors from Playmates. They are Kickstarter incentives for the new Turtle Power documentary. It was mentioned in one of Pixel Dan's latest videos.

Very expensive as you will need to purchase at least the $580 Canadian ($430 US) bundle to receive them.

Thank you. It looks like the card art is from Ale Espinoza C. I’m happy they got him to do the artwork. I hope that everyone who wants this is able to get it.
