And....4 more Turtles from a different wave. Maybe the Wacky Action ones or the Toon wave.

I'd love to see Vernon, Irma and Burne re-released.
I second the Wacky Action figures. Despite their popularity, none of them were re-released at any point in time.

Okay, but how many did they have to begin with? If the store had 10 cases then yeah, that's selling well, but if if they only got only one case I don't see how that adds up to selling well if they haven't gotten more.


EDIT: Here's a fun idea. Get the Japanese Exclusive molds from Takara and release them here.

I always thought a Box set re-release of the Channel 6 News Team in a creative package would do wonders. I'd rather see them in a News Room looking collectors box than separate on cards.

Speaking of, I think they should make "scene" type box sets. It's really simple and would only be new packaging. I'm thinking there could be a training set that has the Turtles and Splinter on a background of the lair's dojo. Then they could have "When the evil Shredder Attacks" set that has Shredder and 4 Foot Soilders on a background from the 2nd intro (Where they come out of a dimensional portal). Then your idea of the Channel 6 News Team would make another good one.

Great Idea, but this is Playmates.

I'd like to see a re-issie Mutagen Man myself. I guess the rerelease of other characters depends on how well first batch of 12 do.

Anyone who knows me knows I'd love to see the Suuuuuuuupa Tatorusu released here.

Or at least reissues of the Supermutants would be nice!

That reminds me Wes, I was looking at the Turtle Saint pics you put on Scary-Crayon and noticed that Saint amd Devil aren't the only Japanese Exclusives. From the way people talk around here, I was surprised by this.


EDIT: If there's a single figure from the Japanese exclusives I want to them to reissue, it's Devil Shredder!

You mean in addition to the rest of that wave, or other Japanese figures? I think there might be some confusion because we did get Supermutant Turtles, just not suupa myootation ones. (Well, not unless you count the Mutant Masters and the Metal Mutants, but those are a bit different. )

And yes, a US Devil Shredder release would have me drooling... even though, honestly, I'd rather have the Supermutant Shredder figure. That would probably be my default Shredder if I had one!

People often forget the Super-Mutating Turtles because they are similar in appearance to the Supermutant Turtles, even if they have a mutating action feature. Devil Shredder and Saint Turtle are vastly different than anything seen released in the US.

I too, would like a reissue of Supermutant Shredder. I've only got one carded that I got in a lot, and getting the two that I need loose (one for a custom) has proved tougher than I thought.

Figures I would pick up are ones that they never re-released like:
Pizza Face
Mutagen Man
Sargeant Bananas
Triceraton
Scumbug
Dirtbag

Other that have been re-released that I'd like to see would be:
Rat King

Yeah, characters like Rat King, Fugitoid, the Triceriton... characters that were introduced in the comic really should get a re-release. I mean, they're re-releasing Casey Jones right away, and he wasn't all that popular in the old cartoons.

So desperate to find these in Canadian stores I emailed playmates and asked the question. This is what I got back:

"I don’t know when they are going to ship to Canada and I think only the 6 are going to be in the 25th anniversary batch."

Only the 6??!!?? What the heck is he talking about?
