Pretty sure they are all Nick characters. They might be trying to channel some vintage styles in the facial expressions.

Anyone know what's up with the US stock for the basic Head Droppin' Raph and Mikey? I cannot find them anywhere but I see plenty of Donnie and Leo.

I'm wondering how many more action figures are going to be in this line. With season 4 of the show starting this Fall probably, I think we will need a season 5 in order to guarantee more new figures. Someone from Playmates said there will be more new characters if the line continues. Turtles is super popular right now though and with a new movie next year, I'm not really that concerned about it.
This. I am wondering about this too. I have seen packaged pictures, but I think they were at some convention where Playmates attended. |

Oh yeah, they wouldn't market anything outside of the Nick series brand in this line. But they could put out something using 2K3-esque concepts/designs anyway. They're definitely channeling the Battle Shell with that vehicle, and I can see them wanting to use other designs/concepts for some variants.

T-Machines , am I missing something? I don't see the Battle Shell ! I did obtain the first two track sets and the larger Party Wagon.
I'm in the same boat as the rest over the head dropping turtles : only Don and Leo so far. Haven't seen the others at all . |

Have the 12" Head Droppin' Mikey and Donnie been released? I think we will get new figures up to 2017, hopefully beyond that year.

That's a good point. I've not seen the larger versions at all.
I picked up another set of the first pair to keep in packs. |

I did the same thing! I don't follow minimates so I had no clue they had an ICK. I googled it and found this pic and was instantly sold.

Me too, that's like the only thing I'm looking forward to at this point. Muckman too, but I feel like he's gonna end up looking bad.

Fortunately, i don't have to wait around for Playmates to issue these !! haha!!
On that, I was sure we wouldn't get something in the T-Machine range after getting the Extreme Speed Demon talking vehicle, and it just being a regular vehicle with a turbo blower up front (acting as the button to activate the sounds). Then I got the Leo's Auto Tuner. An over sized but very cool T-Machine that would never get into the track sets. The Leo figure is the same size as the regular action figure range. I opened up the leaflet to not only see that we are getting a couple more sets, but... ![]() Yup, they are doing the proper Speed Demon. Now I don't know if this is out in the states, but for me, Ive just seen that its coming out. This is one cool car for the collection. And there is Turflytle, Rat King and Casey (tho I have seen that in other leaflets). I know these aren't for everyone, but I have always like vehicles, so I am kind of excited with this range, even if the playlets are quite flimsy. PS - sorry for side way pic. I did change it, but it didn't save - and me, I teach Computer Science !! Last edited by DVD; 06-10-2015 at 11:59 PM. |

The others have actually been pretty decent. Im hoping that the pic is the unpainted version, as there appears to be no body paintwork.
That said, I'm up for this one anyway, and I think its the inspiration for the range. |
