Official 25th Anniversary Figures Thread

Well i didn't know they were out already (I'm guessing its a bootleg?) but here is a 25th mikey

http://cgi.ebay.com/25th-anniversary...%3A10|294%3A50

Again, I don't think it's the real deal, but i've been wrong before

edit:
sorry if this is the wrong thread, seems like there are 10 threads about new toys...

If it's a bootleg, they really paid attention to detail!

I suppose it is if you were expecting a real live mutant turtle to call your own from Playmates and hadn't heard the news of re-issuing the original figures, but it's not like that the final product is a shocking development that's sending fans into tears or anything.

We've known about this for awhile.

I think the box art is just fine, its not like G.I. Joe did anything spectacular for there 25th, this is pretty much what I expected to look like what the originals did and they did that plus adding a original dvd which is cool, Thats if this is the real re-issue packaging.

How cool. That packaging is sharp and a helluva tribute to the old line. I wish that Playmates had went with the tent hook instead of the J-peg but that's really minor. The inclusion of classic episodes on DVD is pretty sweet too. Now, I wonder which online retailers are going to be selling cases?

oooooooooh sarcasm...

I meant the lack of effort that they put into their packaging. every other toy line that has done commemorative figs has made a effort to present their reissues in a package that has usually complimented the original product. but its clear that playmates doesn't feel that the TMNT reissues are worthy of being presented to the fans like the Star Wars or MOTU reissues. and besides, this is just messy, 2 really large and unattractive stickers on the bubble, the card art doesn't match the originals, and I just love the way they tucked April in the corner on the bottom of the card like she doesn't matter. and why the hell is Mikey slanted in the bubble? I sure as hell don't remember that from the original line. yeah great job Playmates, you cant even display your figs in their package upright.

Wow, pant-less Shredder even made the box art, way to go Playmates. I wonder if we have 1 episode for all 12 figures or if we get 12 distinct episodes.

the krang on the back is strange...is it an accessory included with shredder???

I didn't expect casey. I thought it was the first 10 plus krang and slash. Interesting changes from what I expected
