Official 25th Anniversary Figures Thread - Page 38

I didn't want to make a new topic for this, so I thought I would post my question here. Does anyone know how Rocksteady can properly hold his gun? The back of it seems so long that he can only hold it sideways, instead of straight forward. I didn't want to force it because I thought that might damage the figure.

You are talking about the original Rocksteady (or at least the recent 25th release)? Then the rifle should fit easily with the butt tucked between his arm and body.

75% of Playmates "confirmed" items get canceled. I still don't believe the Mirage turtles are coming out. Not till I see them.

I had no idea that many figures were cancelled. I would've liked it if they had released the Cyber firures and the Foot Mystics.

Tuxedo Moroboshi · 12-04-2009, 09:15 PM

Notice how the vast majority of canceled figures are from the newer lines? Interesting thing to note there.

*Spitfire* · 12-05-2009, 12:24 AM

Well I mean this year in general most of what they said they were gonna release just never got released, or was delayed.

There was also the "fire" series that was supposedly gonna have Slash in it. Also lots of great planned figures that never got released. Like Utrom Shredder and Daruis Dunn.

It just pisses me off all the FF toys got canceled cause I liked that line. I could give a crap about the ****** movie figures. Though the ones I would have bought, like the mole mutant or the Ryan Brown mutants were only released in Europe or not at all. It's BS.

Wait, they planned an Utrom Shredder? How far did this planning get? I want to see pics!

Daaaaaaamn that **** was sick!

indy1936 · 12-07-2009, 04:30 PM

Question:

When will the 25th anniversary reissue TMNT figures (shredder,
foot solider, slash, casey jones) be released? Thank you!

Answer:

With our partnership with Nickelodeon, I would wait until 2010 to find
out what new product is coming out.

Yet another reason to not believe a word Playmates says concerning figure releases.

*Oculus Orbus* · 12-07-2009, 04:45 PM

Yeah, what Paula Billingsley actually meant was: "hey, we don't know what the f**k we're doing! This is Playmates, remember!?"

I can't stop thinking that they're gonna be there with Nick as well...

billbot85 · 12-07-2009, 06:31 PM

Yeah I emailed Paula again and she pretty much said the same thing to me, too. Sorry guys, looks like we gotta wait till after the Holidays :-/

bretttheleofan · 12-07-2009, 06:51 PM

Yeah this is my first post here hello everyone! I have been a huge turtles fan forever. I have a nice huge turtles tattoo on my left forearm. I myself have been emailing playmates and got a response similar:

I am sorry all the figures have been put on hold until further notice.
We have a new partnership with Nickelodeon and more information will
come in 2010.

Yup, I got the exact reply as you did. This sucks since I've been looking forward to wave 3 of the 25th anniv. figures. WE just gotta not lose our hope and just see what goes on next spring.

Welcome to the forum, btw.
