On the hopeful side, maybe not? I feel like that wave is showing up at Walmart while the 2k12 has only show up Target?

I haven’t seen any of the either wave at the opposite store, and don’t think I’ve seen it reported either.

I got this Walmart ad on Instagram for a 4 pack of some variation of the 2003 turtle figures I haven't seen announced anywhere. (Sorry, I didn't collect that line). When I click on the link it says it says it can't find the page.

Those would be these turtles- https://tmnttoys.com/05figures/paleofigures/index.html

although I was able to find those stock images online of the four turtles individually.

That would be a sweet re release choice. I'm hoping we get more 03 line re releases

I got the same ad on Facebook. Those are the Paleo patrol figures. Personally I'd rather see a lot more vintage before more 2k3

Right?! When is the vintage Metalhead wave coming out? Playmates said they would focus on the classic figures years ago. Now, it’s 2k3 and 2k12.

Even if they don't get to the niche end line rares like Scratch and Hothead and co, they should at least bring us some core missing figures like Krang's android body, Tragg, Napoleon, and Mona Lisa. Maybe even an Amazon 4 pack with the Toon channel 6 crew, April, Bern, Vernon, and Irma.

They could re-release the Channel Six News van too.

What I'd like to know is why the PowerPoint screenshots being passed around have got little thumbnails of the military figures on cards, but two of them are TRU/2012-era reissue cards in those thumbnails? Is that their way of saying it will be the same crappy repaint facsimile as those were?

Personally I don't want any more reissues which lack unique card art PER figure, which closely reproduces the original. This is basically any of the variant turtle waves. Reissue something more exciting please.

I think Playmates lost the molds to most of the 1992 to 1997 figures.

Yeah, that’s probably what it is. Honestly, whatever Playmates gets to, I’m fine with it. They don’t have reissue anything, let alone at the prices they are. Good on them for doing so.

I wouldn’t mind 2 things:

1 - Reusing molds to make alternate old-school style figures, like the new Don (old Leo mold) that came with the reissued Toilet Taxi. Like getting “new” retro figures for cheap.

2 - Reissues with more detailed paint jobs even if a higher price point. Many of the figures had great sculpts that would really look great painted.

But as it is, I am loving these reissues since I missed out on all reissues after 1998.
