Way for the toy makers to make a quick buck

Don't you hate it when they start making rip-offs of toys with-in thier own franchise?

Like all the "Stunt Rider" figs from the latest movie...Raph is supposed to be the only Nightwatcher stuntrider...but now they have motorcycle toys for all 4 turtles....the same thing only with differnt colors.

Mikes is in the style of the Cowabunga Carl van....and besides Raph the other 3 turtles don't even come with cool gear or out-fits...its the same basic figs only they come with the bike....it be ok if all 4 motorcycles appeared in the movie but they don't.

What a lame way for them to try and make more money.

I dunno, Wildcat, I guess you're right in that they should come up with something more original, but I gotta be honest-- I was looking forward to getting Don's motorcycle. I've had my eye on it since I saw the prototype pics when they were posted on the forums.
