I've been away for awhile, but I took note of this and just picked the Mutation Slash... man what a difference. Much better than the normal version. I'll keep it in mind with Dogpound and Leatherhead as I never picked them up due to their size.

Here's what you can expect for some of those figures. Napoleon looks kinda bad in my opinion.l

I was surprised to see the Napolean figure with the Unicorn and painted on straps.

I mean, I dunno how much taller either one will be, but any height added is good if you ask me, even if it throws off the proportions a little. Sadly, there's no idea when they're all coming out. I hope soon, as I much prefer Dogpound to Rahzar in terms of looks.

Ugh Once again Playmates molded Monkey Brains arms in a bent position so we can't get any articulation out of them. I am getting sick and tired of figures with bent arms and bent knees. It ruins the figures

Rukitron · 03-23-2015, 09:12 PM

I saw the T-Rawket at Target today. Took them quite a while to restock the empty TMNT shelves.

If they're not gonna have elbow articulations, bent arms are better right?
I mean, u can't pose at all with April besides having her hang down her arms in a neutral standing position.

I agree, Bent arms are much better.
Look at how the Star wars figures have gone now - Unless those figures are stood in a queue waiting for the falcon to pick them up they're rendered useless now.

Atilla looks really out of scale in those pics. He should not be shorter than monkey brains. If they wanted to make him mostly static they should at least have made him bigger than most figures but it is just more scale issues in this line.

Huzzah · 03-24-2015, 01:18 PM

Attila is without a doubt one of the weakest figures in the Playmates catalog, it's like they don't want the frogs to be a success, god forbid they have a reason to make alk four. Though honestly I have zero interest in Napoleon either, I hated how he was portrayed.

I love how Napoleon was portrayed but his figure really needs sone cistom work on the skin.

I thought it was just stupid, but then again I don't care for Napoleon Dynamite, so the fact that he was playing the same character...as a mutant...really just kind of turned me from it.

This week just gets better and better.
The van hasn't arrived yet, but I following it's tracking and its so close, I could walk over and get it !!

Anyways, after being offered the three new figures, I've just ordered 16 of the Turtles cars. Most are driven by the same characters, but the set looks quite nice. That was closely followed by the blue Mutations bike (Yup, I really like vehicles).

Then today, I accepted an offer for these: after turning it down a couple of days ago, because I was looking at the image on an iPhone...

*Ninjinister* · 03-25-2015, 02:05 AM

Those toes.... o.o

WOW... they painted them wraps. I really want them.
Too bad they didn't swap Raph and Mike skin color. Raph should be bright green whereas Mike dark green for a real OT look.

Hey, wait... you're right. WTF.

(Actually it was the Original Figures (OF?) not the OT, but I get your point)

Playmates penny pinched their budget super hard on every, but these. I'm not even sure how to feel, but they kinda suck at eye printing, lol. Some of them have googly eyes.

Taichi · 03-25-2015, 08:29 AM

Yeah, I can't stand eyes that are so off center. Mikey has that "durrrr" look going on.

In other news... picked up Mystic Leo... and paint to make him better. He won't be 100% authentic... but at least he'll look better. Depending on how he goes, might pick up the others.

Andddd... went to my TRU in Joplin, MO yesterday, they restocked the shelves... nothing but Raph the Barbarian... like, 30 of them! What is it with TRU and their shipments? The Legacy Power Rangers were shafted and stores ended up receiving cases of one color... in my case, Blue. Now the Turtles are going there.

My TRU in Wichita, KS got a whole 24 pack of Donnie.

At first my store had only gotten blue ranger, then they sprinkled in others later, leaving the females and Zach out.

I wonder if the Fred Wolf look a likes are something that might happen on the show.
