About the second point, there's a big difference between including a 1990 figure with the 89 releases and a 1993 figure with those releases. Mutagen Man was still fairly early on--by the time Scratch came along, the whole toy line was a completely different beast. Look, the sculpt is great. I'm glad people are happy to have a Scratch. But it still strikes me as out of place, and it just seems like S7 felt like it needed to do something to stand apart from NECA since the two have been making many of the same figures. |

Very much agree here. Hot Head in general can potentially be huge. I’m assuming there will be an alternate long neck head sculpt… very excited for him to come around.

Besides, if they went in chronological order like you seem to be suggesting the later waves would lose a lot of people. Personally I can't wait to see Halfcourt, Sandstorm, etc, but a lot of people would skip a 92/93 wave entirely. Heck, I've already seen a bunch of people saying they're out after '89. Starting to mix in some of these later releases with the "prime" characters is a great strategy in my opinion. |

Im not a huge fan of the alternate turtles, so I am pretty close to being complete or as far as I want to go on S7 already.
But man....I wish sewer Mikey's head was the same green as the turtle we already have. I want that head on my toitle! Actually both those heads on sewer Mike are awesome!

Let's not forget that some figures that looked kind of dull or plain as a kid may be significantly better after the S7 treatment/glam up.
I'm curious to see how some of my favorites will end up looking and there's a lot that are still missing (e.g. Zak and Dask the Neutrino, Triceraton, Hothead, Usagi, Panda Khan, Mona Lisa, Chrome Dome, Fugitoid). Also want to see the punk frogs. Hopefully, they are all different species of frogs and toads. Last edited by Dask; 09-23-2021 at 05:04 PM. |

OK, now I'm in a quandary. I was eyeing up the NECA Ace Duck / Mutagen Man 2-pack on a UK pre-order (still available).
But now this S7 Ace Duck has come along he looks amazing! But better than NECA? Possibly. Obviously for roughly the same amount of money you either get 1 (S7) or 2 (NECA) figures. So not sure which set to go for (Mutagen Man looks great to be fair so would not just be getting that set solely for Ace). What to do...
