That's not too good.
My Raph Stealth Turtle was missing his goggles, but I have that second set ordered.

The front bumper looks like it should retract, and extend, but it doesn't.

The bike is quite light, but it does look nice enough.

Isn't it supposed to light up at the front?

Uh, I doubt the Ooze figures will fit in the patrol buggies. No leg articulation on them.

I might order the Stealth Tech turtles from Amazon. I did see them on there.

yeah but not at retail price, not with prime shipping, and not sold/shipped by amazon.com... but yeah technically you can get them on there

for about $12-15 + shipping at the moment

rat king and cockroach terminator still going for about $30/ea + shipping

of course prices will come down, but it took foreeeeever for leatherhead & friends to get at reasonable prices on amazon

Sounds over-all disappointing, tbh. If I had to guess, I would say that gray piece that looks like it could be a light, but doesn't have any other color on it like the actual light up by the handlebars, is the missile you're talking about. I have to admit, that front bumper would have been my first guess as to something gimmick related. If this came with a Raph or a Mikey figure I probably would get it, but as-is it's an easy pass for me.

The 'light' is what the missile is, so nothing lights up.

I hadn't thought of that!

Concept art set Cockroach to four feet at the top of his prothorax. His secondary mutation is between seven and eight feet tall.

I'd say the Cockroach figure is either at the right height or ever so slightly oversized.

I don't mind retail price. Actually, I'd really like getting retail prices !!!

Irony is that I have to deal with imported product as it is not actually licenced or marketed here. Don't know why.

Eventually everything becomes available on line.
I pay about £8 per figure ($12) which I have no complaints about.

Weird how the bike doesn't light up like it's advertised to...

Unless there is something specifically saying "lights up", I think you just interpreted the picture incorrectly. I thought it was to light up as well, but I'm thinking the light up effect in picture is actually a blast effect from the missile.

Nice! Good to see these guys being up for pre-order. Boo on that price tag though. Hoping TRU keeps them at $19.99.

Thanks for that link Colonel

Thanks. I prefer the first classics, but I'll get these.

*zkarlette* · 07-26-2013, 05:48 PM

I'm definitely looking forward to these classics, can't wait to see the sculpts of the other turtles.

So I managed to snag a Rat King at SDCC. I thought you guys might appreciate a few pics:

Like stated, he's not really too poseable. His legs shift a little but don't bend at the knee; the arms bend at the shoulder but not the elbow (though the arms twist so you can turn his hands).

Spoiler:

Here are some close-ups of his face... actually some nice detail here. You can even see a few wisps of black hair behind his head.

Spoiler:

He comes packaged with his staff and the little white Socrates rat. There's no place to actually attach the rat to him, but you can balance it in his hand.

Spoiler:

Overall, I think he looks pretty cool. The mold on his clothes and hat are simple, but have some nice, ratty detail - no pun intended. The one beef I have is that the rats on his coat are solid black, same as what he's wearing. It would've been nice if they were painted too (I may paint mine at some point). Something else I thought would've been a nice touch is if his hat and face bandage came off in a single piece, revealing his zombie eyes. I'd pay a few extra bucks for that variant.

*DVD* · 07-26-2013, 07:22 PM

I found that if you use the curl in the tail as a hook , the rat can stay on the hand without falling off.

O wow, Thanks for the link, these Movie Classics looks so cool. Can't wait t get my hands on them!

*VaughnMichael* · 07-27-2013, 08:05 AM

He looks good but something is a bit off about the head but he's leaps and bounds better than Bebop & Rocksteady.
If I could request only two things it would be to give the figure the "Muppet" texture that Palisades gave to their Muppet line.
Also to put some place on the package a dedication to Jim Henson.
