Diamond Select toys just announced A box set of the Original Comic figures. They look pretty Amazing and way better than the nick figures ( even though I love those figures).

Aw, they're Minimates. Got all excited for a minute there.

Playmates make the best ads?

Notice how they carefully hid the hind legs from audiences' view.

I thought I was popping the head off, but... I snapped the peg at source. Its a real easy fix with a drop of superglue, but I really wanted to use the body to house the Karai head. There is no way I will get the rest of the peg out of the neck, so I guess Im ordering another April !!
This one, I'll just fix and put back at the controls of the blimp.

Hey buddy, I got a question for you. Did you use heat to help remove the head, or were you trying to pry it off under normal room temp?
After observing my April figure, it seems like her head is made of a softer plastic that can be more pliable after heating it with a blow dryer set on high heat.
I'm wondering if you tried this and still snapped the peg. If not, then maybe it's worth looking into...

I love that the heads are in perfect scale. I think I'm actually going to pick up a Karai and April to attempt this.
Thanks.

Giant turtle mode

You know...my initial reaction to this playset figure, (mind you as an adult) was "what the heck? lol". But then I thought about it... if I were 10 years old again (which was about the time I became a huge turtle fan in the mid 80s) I think I would have LOVED this thing!

There's so much a highly imaginative child can do with this. (and like many of you, I was pretty highly imaginative! lol) I don't know what it's origins are but I imagined this as a giant turtle mechanoid created to do battle against another giant monster/etc from dimension X... thus also having the ability to convert into a battle fortress of sorts for all your figures.. ...hey I dunno. lol.

My point is, I think it's actually rather cool with plenty of imaginative play potential. If you only look at it from a common sense view, you may be hard pressed to find it attractive and fun.

If my son were into the toys, I'd pick this up for him. I'm sure he'd have lots of fun pretending it's a giant robot and not just a big figure that can turn into a battle lair.

Sweet! Those are cool and I'll be picking a set up for sure.

They still look good, the minimates heads work really well.

Don't get me wrong I love Leonardo as much as the next guy....but why does it have to look like him? Ugh. Just ruins it. Aesthetically I can't put that next to my other playsets cause it'll just look like an unfolded Leo...dang, man. I actually like the thing for what it is. Looks like it'll be in the 50-60 dollar range.

Yeah if it was just a normal playset I would really like it.

PurpleMusic · 02-14-2015, 12:08 PM

I'd have loved something similar as a kid too. I just...can't stand the legs/feet on these Nick turtles' designs every time I see them...They're just like these lazy cones that make no sense and totally lack funk.

Savanti Romero

Splint'r · 02-14-2015, 02:03 PM

It's great that they're releasing these characters and all the prototypes look sweet. Especially Krang Prime.
Now to wait and see what the final product looks like. Hopefully they'll pick up the quality back to where it started.

*Powder* · 02-14-2015, 02:08 PM

If the paint is final on these, they're not all too shabby. Awesome that Savanti & Fugitoid will join the series! Finally some Mirage influence. The 3 pack of the turtle's pets is a MUST HAVE!

We both know the paint isn't final on most figures there.

On some, like Kraang Prime, I imagine you're right. But Napoleon, for example, has details there that aren't painted (such as around his right ankle, seems there's a shackle or something) so I'm guessing a few of them are in fact production samples.

...Wait a minute, on that note, HIS EYES AREN'T EVEN PAINTED! WTF!

Also, wow, either that guy is nervous beyond belief, or a dim bulb. Either way, it'd prolly be a good idea to have a rep who can speak properly. "Shredder Mutant Turtles" "Angry Beavers. Dire Beaver & Angry Bird Bieber."
