Lesse... I'll get Rocksteady, BeBop, April, Casey, Splinter, and Slash cuz I never got those figs. I have an original run Raph already but I'll probably end up getting the re-release. Maybe if Shredder had pants I might consider getting him as well.

April and Casey have the best looks to em. Rocksteady reminds me of the Rhino guards from Robin Hood.

Are you kidding? The only reason I am getting shredder is because he has no pants!

Gotta love the pantsless Shredder variant.

Too bad he'll probably have pants when he hits retail. Forget taking away his pants, they should have given him a shirt.

I always think of this song when I see Shredder sans pants.

Yeah, that Shredder has the most comedic value in a TMNT toy since the 90's. I think I'll have to buy him if that's how he ends up

Why redo Shredder like that? Why not replace the blue with silver, and give him a shirt.

Also, why didn't they correct Slash's idiotic pink color scheme? On the plus side, I lost my mini Krang that goes with the Android body. So there's that.

These are probably early shots. I can't imagine they'll actually release a Shredder figure with no pants.

Everything else appears to be almost an identical re-release to the classic figures. So this is probably just an early proto pic.

if they do release a shredder with no pants that would be pretty weird. i would just get him and paint his legs black, lol.

Blade Raider · 12-17-2008, 04:42 PM

Was just looking at my old Shredder and his leg's plastic is skin tone with everything painted on. I have a hunch that either they didn't finish painting this one or Playmates had to cut back on paint apps. Logically, it's the former, but I run the latter by them.

Newton Gimmick · 12-17-2008, 04:45 PM

I just find it amusing that they actually used protos instead of just posting pics of the vintage TMNT figures. I mean, they're the exact same. If they'd just shoved an 88 Shredder in that picture no one would have been the wiser.

Maybe it's a proto of the 88 figure before they added pants

Shredder looks like a flasher.

I was told this issue of the mag. didn't come out yet guess I was lied to yay!
And Spitfire that Krang was the one that goes inside the smaller 1994 Krang's android body action figure.

Read my reply to spitfire.

Oh and maybe since it's now confirmed that Slash is part of the list like I told everyone months ago you'll start believing what I tell you.

Leonardo19 · 12-17-2008, 08:40 PM

Hey Vaughn you have been correct with what you have said so far. Just curious if you do know whats going on with Neca or when we may hear something? We all want them to release more.

that's because I don't lie and neither do the insiders I talk to, why would they want to lie to the fans.
Anyway, I talk about what I believe is going n with NECA in this annoying new thread.

I honestly don't know for sure, and neither does anyone a Mirage but it's a pretty good guess.

**Jester** · 12-17-2008, 09:11 PM

Hey, that's my annoying new thread...

Ok, the pantless Shredder made me think of this:

Maybe this is Enter the Fly Shredder, with pantless action!!

Leonardo19 · 12-17-2008, 09:16 PM

LOL great pic Jester!

*Cipher* · 12-17-2008, 09:19 PM

"Nudist Shredder" just seems like another one of those fun variant figures.

This pantless Shredhead is comedy gold! In fact, have another caption:
(I didn't use img tags this time because some may find it distasteful. It's a caption of the above pic. You've been WARNED)

I can get behind this re-release because I loved the old toys. Kids and people who aren't big enough geeks to get the old toys on eBay or something should love these.

Shredder does need to put some f'ing pants on, though.
