However you guys are still bitching? OMFG I hate to insult people who I've enjoyed reading/talking to them in the past but you guys need to seriously need to quit whining so much.

I do recall people not liking Shredder too much and complaining that they were all the same sculpt basically and I can understand people wanting bases. However.....The thing that did it for me is the whole bitching and whining that has been going on for months about no NECA series 2, and now we are apparently getting it and you guys keep at it.

I always liked the TMNT Fandom but I think after this I no longer like it at all. You guys have been spoiled too much and throw tantrums if you don't get things the way you want it. Tons of fandoms would love to get the treatment the turtles get. And this is coming from a person who likes to whine about things we aren't getting. However you guys made it tedious and annoying.
Wow... Ummm... I've only noticed a small handful of people complaining and theres always going to be a few that cannot be pleased. I think everyone, however, is over all pleased that anything is coming from NECA at all.

Like I mentioned in my last post I may have overreacted :p though my point is still valid IMO.

Yeah, that's actually kind of old. It's from Murph's blog.

Yeah, I think you posted at about the same time I posted.

You do have a valid point, I'll admit that. At least you admit to over reacting, though. Good show.

I saw mention of foot color variants. April in a yellow jumpsuit is an obvious choice, but what foot variants might there be? I'm debating on waiting on the foot until I know what others are coming. I don't really care to much for the colors they chose, even if they are the original colors.

I keep reading that people want NECA to release the colored turtles. I thought NECA only had the original Mirage comics, and therefore cannot do colored bandannas.

Deep purple variant.
Black Variant?

and I never read anything that said they only had the original mirage comics, just that that was all they'd planned on doing. Actually, it was implied they could do more.

sdp, I would grab up a 4-pack if you just want the turtles. They're selling quite cheap on EBAY. I even think I saw the 4-pack go for around 30 dollars. You can't beat that price if you want to do your make customs. But to answer your question. The figures in the individual clamshell come with a little turltle, extra hands, ooze can and the bases. There is probably more that I missed, but the 4-pack pretty much just comes with their respective weapons. That's also the same I believe with the turtles in the tube packaging. Hope this helps!

I think I posted that on the previous page... but yes. It is great news! Or at least it is for those of us (that is, those of YOU) who can afford to preorder them.

See? Exactly my point!

As for Wave 2 being up for pre-order, it's time for a happy dance!

I'm going to find it hilarious how many people try to pretend the Utrom is Krang.

Heck, that's pretty much my plan! I even affectionately refer to the 2K3 Utrom Shredder as "Kredder."

Ya know, I just thought of something (though this really only applies to customizers). Now, some people said that packaging the Utrom with Shredder really makes it hard to do Utrom army-building, but I disagree. If you want to do Utrom army-building, those extra Shredders CAN be useful... to make custom Shredder worm-clones!

One could also chop a hole in Shredder's stomach and add some sculpting material around it to transform comic Shredder into 2K3 KREDDER!!!

I totally want my Krang.

Heh, if you were to do that, then you could also use a little bit of sculpting material and then a simple repaint can transform the added Utrom into Ch’rell! Though, doing that might completely defeat the whole Utrom army-building plan.

I wonder how long before someone take the Utrom and puts it on Shredder's head...you know what I'm talking about!
