There's no need to capitalize every word - the first word in a sentence, and proper nouns will suffice.

The movie Classics look even worse than they did at Toy Fair. I'm wondering if there're worth salvaging. The heads look terrible, the bodies are far too smooth and undetailed, the weapons look clunky and oversized (and they couldn't even get Mike's 'chuks right!), and there's a general air of half-arsedness about them.

They're probably my biggest toy disappointment since the NECA line was cancelled...

That's really too bad...this line had a potential for greatness!

I just looked at those pics above (thanks HGG!) and I can't express how disappointed I am in those. Those are nice looking figures, but they are NOT the 1990 movie figures!!! If they had just come out as a 6" multi-poseable line of figures I don't think we would be as harsh on them, but the fact that they are supposed to be the movie line makes them such a disappointment. It's sad that the old vintage movie figures look so much more like the movie turtles than these guys do! Hey they done these right, they could've been THE definitive set of awesome turtles figures!!

eh i would take his word with a grain of salt...he may be a popular toy reviewer but his news seems to come from toy fairs where the reps no very little of the actual working of the companies

not saying he is wrong but dont expect it tomorrow

personally im not to much a fan of his..but i appreciate being able to use him as a reference to the toys "in hand"

personally i dont mind the look, are they perfect no...but these will be my movie represented guys since my original set was stolen yers ago

but i wil lsay they tend to have a "fatter" look

*Donatello19* · 05-21-2014, 01:48 PM

Wow, those are pretty terrible looking. The original Movie Star turtles (which were basic action figures!) had more detail....and what were they thinking with those faces? I will not be buying them.

*The Boston Ninja Turtle* · 05-21-2014, 02:15 PM

Leo looks kinda surprised in this picture

I like the overall shapes and the belts but it's unbelievable they would not opt for the painted-on skin spots. The spots are really what defines the movie Turtles for me. Definite pass on these.

Their skin needs to be textured. If playmates could make the 4" vintage figures so detailed and sold them for $4, then these 6" figures should definitely be more detailed, especially considering they will sell for $20-$26 each depending on where you get them.

But takes the fun of Customizing away

*Powder* · 05-21-2014, 05:26 PM

Wow they look like absolute garbage. Thanks for completely shitt!ing on the turtles' toy legacy for the 30th anniversary, Playmates.

*Candy Kappa* · 05-21-2014, 06:23 PM

Dear lords, it just keeps getting better and better...

goodfellaray · 05-21-2014, 11:06 PM

The images from the Toy Fair we're starting to grow on me. Then I see these... wow. I'm at a loss for words.

*Powder* · 05-21-2014, 11:15 PM

Ditto. I wasn't truly happy with them when they were first revealed, but the paint detail sorta made up for the semi-goofy faces. I was counting them as a must-have set of toys despite their flaws. But now? I'm so disgusted with Playmates there are no words that could truly express it. Guess the Revoltech Nick Turtles will be my only action figure purchase this year (well, I do still need that vac-metal Fugitoid...

).

You believe in one, others believe in many. That's their right. That aside, there is no reason to have a religious debate. Stay on topic.

Same. As soon as I saw them at TF I really wanted them, now I'm quite depressed

*Candy Kappa* · 05-22-2014, 01:33 AM

Looking at the buck, there is some improvements over the first Classics, she carapace looks like a lot better in Shape and texture, but then it's just a smooth downhill from there. And Leo's facial expression... Looks goofier and goofier with each new picture.

Nope, your deity is not my deity. So no need to "correct" my post.

Rukitron · 05-22-2014, 01:54 AM

Leo looks like he cowabunga'd in his shell...

Seriously Classics has been kind of a let down since it started....
