[azure turtle]

Wow! That looks totally awesome!

[darthsmozers]

WOW, just put the along side the old one and you get one awesome home for your turtles....green tubes, a bed, and space from the old one, and a sofa, tv, exercise room, and lab from the new one. AWESOME! (thats be awesome if they actually attached hehe--like, if it had a large hole to connect a green tube to )

This has to be "playset of the year" for 2003. I'd just like to see the other side of it!

[TMNT is cooler than MOTU]

Nice!

[Wingnut]

So...cool...spazing...out

[Snailman]

WHOA!! Awwwwwesome!
Those are much better pictures then the ones on action-figure.com, mainly cause these pictures zoom in a little more on each of the things the lair does. Too cool!

Yeah! I know right? Maybe they have'nt sculpted the other side yet (this is just a prototype right)? I wonder what it'd look like though, as this newer playset seems to be 95% underground, & 5% street-level stuff. I hope they add more street level things to it, I always did like that about the original playset. What I always loved about the original one, was that it actually looked like the surface of the city! The men-at-work sign stuff, the fence, the fire hydrent,the grating on the sidewalk, the telephone poles all classic stuff. And what made it all the more cooler, was that you could hang out down underground!

That would be cool, but are they even close to being the same size? Like, would you be able to just walk along the streets of the city, smiling to every mutant you see & then jump out & swing on the telephone lines?

In all seriousness, would the two of them line-up correctly? You might have to put the older one up on some boxes to have the two streets line-up properly.

Too cool!!!!!!! I want one!!!!!!!!!!!!

[darthsmozers]

probably so, snailman, but if they made them interconnect, what a bonud thatd be!!! ah well, its still awesome, and one can be handy with both playsets

[Dontebell]

That would be pretty awesome. Wouldn't even take alot of work for them, just make a section that goes into the tubing. I think this playset has something over the other one, besides size & such, but it's opened up. The old playset, while cool as hell, was very cramped inside it. I always remember it being difficult to play with all my guys inside it when I had a friend over along with my little sister to play.

You know what's weird? All the turtles have different sculpts, Raph has Leo's. That I can tell. The other ones are switched, too!

[tmntpower2003]

that looks awsome, anyone else notice on the weapon wall they have the classic triangle dagger that came w/ all the original figs

[Eye of Sarnath]

Sweet! I can hardly wait for it, now my figures won't have to sit on my desk, they can hang out in their lair!

The old playset, while cool as hell, was very cramped inside it. I always remember it being difficult to play with all my guys inside it when I had a friend over along with my little sister to play.

Definately, man. I remeber having a hard time getting the figs in there, so they most often just ended up kicking some Foot ass on the top.

I think the older one was cramped, but all the same, I would like some street level stuff, after all, the Foot can only invade tha lair so many times!

[darthsmozers]

WOW, i didnt notice the weapons...awesome! I hope they're detachable!

Itd be fun if you could get some older, beat up figures ready for the trash, and used their pieces in don's lab..like broken foot soldier arms, metalhead parts, etc.

I wonder if they'll sell accessory sets of stuff like that...remember the old accessory sets that came with little booklets? does ANYONE know what i mean? lol.

[PWDESAI]

[Eye of Sarnath]

Heh, I remeber those accessory kits, those were great. Yeah, I wouldn't mind seeing something like those for this new line.

[darthsmozers]

if any of u have an accessory set booklet, scan it for me PLEASE! lol

Same here, it was fun though, using the elevator & the de-tatchable sewer lid to have the turtles hop down into the sewer alla the cartoon show. Ah good times, good times...I might go bust-out my Sewer Playset actually- just have to move some boxes around to get at 'it.

::nods:: I agree, more street level stuff would kick much ass. They don't have to go all crazy like with the old set (although if they really want to, I won't complain . ), just maybe put a Lampost down, some trash cans, maybe a little fence like the old one had. Hell, Playmates are creative, they can figure something out. Or just go ask Peter Laird, he'll have some kick-ass ideas about toy stuff.

Weapons? Lemme see...::checks out picture:: Hey! Your right! Sweet! I'd like to think their detatchable- be pretty silly to go to all that effort just to not have them able to come off.

That'd be pretty cool, but in the new show the foot soliders are humans, not robots I think. So having foot solider parts lying around the lab would be a little....nasty .
But I get the jist of what your meaning though- yeah it would be cool to see robot parts lying around the lab, although it'd have to be only a few as the lab doesn't look to be that big.

I remember those! I never owned any, but I saw pictures of them all the time on the backs of some vehicles I got. Lemme check out ninjaturtles.com.....ah-HAH! Here we are. They were called "Gags, Jokes & Weapons" & they have 3 of 'em. Here be the pictures:

Gags, Jokes & Weapons #1


Gags, Jokes & Weapons #2


Gags, Jokes & Weapons #3


I don't see these on eBay that much, they must have been very rare or something. They look cool though, I would have liked to have gotten one or two of the packs.
