How long do they leave pre-orders open for these and do you have to pay upfront or when the ship? I think I might order him when I get paid next if I have the funds after bills. $45 is alot for a single figure though.

Edit: just read that pre-orders are open until March 2nd.

You thankfully do not need to pay until the order ships. I think I'm probably going to preorder a number of these and then cancel them if I don't like Wave 1 when I've got it in-hand.

These all look great, especially Bebop and Shredder. I can't help but think Mutagen Man looks way too close to the original figure though. I'm not sure they've added much value there.

Awesome, thank you for the info! In that case I think I will be ordering Shredder. I think I am only going to collect the ones I absolutely love. My display space is pretty small at the moment and I really only put out the Neca stuff but I think this guy would look pretty sweet on my shelf.

oh my god these look amazing. so glad they're doing weird ones with mutagen man. really hope this line has a long life, and we see more weird ones!

Nothing in this wave for me.

Given I'm cherry picking across three Turtles lines, as well as several other lines, I guess that's a good thing.

2nd Quarter 2021 release is ridiculous! I am not giving Super7 my money a whole plus year in advanced

Which is why you shouldn't order from Super7.

You didn't say BBTS before but fully aware of that

Shredder eyebrows head is stupid.
Really, really, really stupid.
Mutagen Man? Uhh, ok, whatever.
This just reinforces for me that I loved the original toys exactly as they were, and I have them, so I do not need any of these.

Huh... I totally missed the projected release date. I guess I'll be waiting a LONG time for Usagi.

Not completely sold on this wave compared to the 1st. Maybe it’s the pictures but I think they look kinda cheap looking. I get what they are doing with that alternative shredder head but I personally think it’s a waste of a head sculpt.
Hopefully they look better in the flesh at Toy fair.

[useasneeded4pain]

LOL @ Spring 2021 release date. 4 figures a year, oh boy!

[italianice388]

agreed - this line looks sick, but they need to speed it up! i'm all in on this wave, but i really want to see a full line of mutants, and i want it to happen in under 25 years lol

[ToSte]

I uhhh... that Shredder head is... LMFAO

Anyway the surprise here for me is Mutagen Man. For some reason I expected them to stick to 88 and 89, at least at first, 1990 was the apex for me so I'm pretty stoked.

That release date is really shocking to me considering Brian Flynn just said a week ago, "it usually takes 6 months from order to delivery, as that is how long it takes to get the figures made." However, I'm no baller so my pocketbook will appreciate the slower pacing.

HAHAHA, what is this for crap?

What's the point of making figures again which aren't even screenaccurate? I'm loving what NECA is doing, though it's taking them so long to release figures but still loving the fact that those are screenaccurate and really satisfying.

This line is rediculous, look how Leo is holding the Katana, Shredder's eyebrows are painted on the helmet, why is his torso naked and are his shoulderpads just putted IN his shoulders? LOL!!!! And that Mutagen Man is an exact copy to the original just a bit bigger. And the worst of all is....$45 a figure whatttttt?!

Honestly, who buys this is just weird imo, especially for that price.

Why can't they just make screen accurate figures and compete with NECA? Just boycot Flop7 and don't buy this people!

The entire point of the line is to remake the Playmates originals. They're not supposed to be screen-accurate. You don't have to like it or want it, but this reaction is juvenile.

Word.

Variety is the spice of life and I'm a huge believer in the free market economy. It's not up to any company or individual to dictate what people are "supposed" to like or want; simply supply the product(s) and let the individual consumer decide for themselves what they will or won't buy. No reason to cast aspersions on others for what they choose to spend their money on.

These look fine for what they are. I'm not super-interested in them myself but I can see the appeal, especially for people who were huge fans of the original line; believe it or not, I know plenty of people who hold more nostalgic love for the toy line than they did the cartoon show, and if I had to guess I'd say that's the market they're going for. I'd be less inclined to buy them than I would the NECA ones, but if someone got them for me as a gift or I came across them at a time when I had some spare cash, I wouldn't be mad about it.

Ultimately, anyone can like or not like whatever they want, but it's nobody's business but the person spending the money.

You think your opinion is the most important. Cool. Those of us that actually like and want these are weird. *Whatever.*

in a lot of cases, the toys became before the show, and tbh they had a bigger impact on me as a kid than the show itself. a tribute to the toys makes a ton of sense. why are you so mad?

But they warrant being described as "weird" because of it? This is where the toxicity starts. But I appreciate you addressing your original post.
