your right man, his left leg (the right one as you look at him) is a different mold. The new one has his leg bending to one side at the ankle, where the original doesnt. Good catch

That is strange...has anyone opened one to see if there are any other signifant differences?

My guess would be that they re-tooled the sculpt of that leg because it is hard to get the original to stand without support.

I agree, I remember having trouble standing my Shredder up when I was a kid haha. When I get these I might do a review and I could compare the differences. I keep calling local TRU's to see if they've got more of these and so far........no (big surprise, I know).

Not with Slash but my shredder has a hole in the top of the bubble like like a perfectly round hole pretty strange.

Having trouble finding the wave 3 rereleases? I think I know why:



This came in the mail today.



It is a full wave 3 case of figures. 8 figures total. When I opened it up, this is what i found:



1 Slash
1 Shredder
1 Foot
1 Rocksteady
1 of each turtle

So you see, for every wave 3 case toys r us is buying, they are only getting 1 of each wave 3 figures. This makes the wave 3 figures exceedingly more rare than the two previous waves.

I see, but my question is Toys R Us going to continue buying these? Or are they finished and now we have to resort to Amok Time? It seems that no one has a direct answer.

but thats depending on if the Toys R Us's are even getting these...I only say this because whenever I go in, I only see the Turtle Van. When I do see the figures, they are usually the same ones that have been sitting there for 6 months
