Favorite Variants?

Teepo · 07-25-2004, 11:46 PM

My favorites so far are would have to be the fightin gear figures.
The option to remove every piece of armor was quite a nice touch.
Plus the extra articulation of course

I just wish they didn't bother with the articulated fingers and toes in favor of joints in the elbow and better range of movement in the legs >.<
I like the added joints in the knee but they can barely move their legs at all so it seems a kinda pointless to me. :/
I hope future variants have removable gear.

I have yet to get ahold of any space hoppin or ninja action figures but they don't interest me much.

My least favorite would probably be the sports variants

My favorite was the Ninja Action because all of the action were, in essence exactly the same. I bought them still, but I liked them because all of them actually worked. I almost said Space Hoppin' because the Ninja Action were like three bucks more and because when I got the Space guys home, all of their arms came right out of socket, so I had to throw them in the fridge.

I used to like the Figting Gear TMNT, before I found all the extra articulation useless. Especialy those hands. When I emailed Playmates, I was told they were trying to fix that problem(I hope they do).
The others don't interest me at all: the original Ninja Action looked better; the Mutations are far too expensive; the Extreme Sports...; the Space Hopin' shouldn't have been resculpted(or at least give them removable "accurate" space suits).

@ one point they had them in accurate removable suits

.....except mikey.....he didn't have the tail....

i like it...kinda...though the suit looks like it doesn't move very well....i'm not big on varients....i'd have bought the Raph with armmor....name excapes me.....but i don't like the new head skulpt....and u all say the extra articulation isn't great...so i'll stick to my wave one Raphie

Space Hoppin' Turtles. They were relevant to the toon.

For me it's the fighting gear TMNT simply because of the removable armour feature.
