TMNT Mini Mutants 2008 pics MIB

I like the min versions of the other characters but I can't say I like the turtles or understand why they went with painting half of their bodies black.
Cute none the less though I'm sure they will be big sellers.

No these are the final procuts that we will be seeing in stores.
What comes to mind though is when they where going to do the secret agent line for Fast Forward.
All these little things pretty much put the nail in the coffin of ever getting those toys now.

Normal versions duh! But hey lets hope I'm wrong and Playmates did send Dan prototypes mib..which they've never done before btw.
But yeah let's hope I'm wrong because they look stupid.

The "normal" Turtles will probably be released with other mini-figures, although those should have came first before the "black-suit" ones.

I also find the merging of art styles odd...its movie style turtles and card art along with 2k3 style everything else...even with the battleshell...kind of throws me off a bit to see them together.

I am digging the Rat King, Triceraton Warrior, and Hun though...Looking forward to seeing more of these.

Still curious on the retail cost for the sets though. Does anyone have that info yet?

Probably $5.99 to be competitive with Hasbro's various mini-figure lines.

I don't like the blend of movie and 2k3 either. It really throws you inner child for a loop Not sure If I'll pick these up anymore. Sees like TMNT is loosing its essence Please don't tell me their taping these up again. Why do they use tape? Don't get the logic behind it. I'm surprised they don't tie packages together with string

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III is better than SOTO and the 2007 movie. You would know that if you were a gangster.

Also, I wish they'd stop making Mikey with that crazed look on his face. It's just not cool.

Might get the Hun pack just for the Hun, but otherwise the black suit Turtles kills it for me.

I do hope the Battle Shell is just big enough to convert into a small GI Joe vechile. That would rock!

Also, remember that there will be playsets that link together come out as well. Bet the normal Turtles come with them (as wel as the other minis like Mono).
