Ok, I havent been around the TMNT community for a while. But I just had to throw my 2 cents in. Why in the HELL did they start making TMNT toys like this again...

Can we say "sell out" ALREADY! These are the kind of toys they made in the last seasons to help low sells and things, and we are barley into the second seaon and they are already selling out... It hurts my feelings...

We've been complaining about that for awhile now.

Anyway, the other new figures are more characters from the new show and even a Shredder clone from Return To New York, thankfully.

So, I guess it's just a fluke.

As long as kids buy them, they will keep making them.

*Kid Icarus* · 09-02-2003, 12:19 PM

they said they made them because in the credits, and an episode, they had the bike/blades/scotter/skateboard.

and like Karpo said, if it makes money they'll do it. Playmates is a company. they exist to make money off of people who don't take the time to learn about what they're buying.

i dont get it, are you complaining cuz thats not the normal dressware a turtle wears? Ill tell you for one, i think rapheal riding a sportsbike naked is pretty stupid looking in the cartoon.

I kinda agree with you there. You'd think he would atleast wear some old leather jacket. Though it does seem like the TMNT in this show don't like to wear human clothing unless it's absolutely neccesary. I mean they hardly ever did in the Mirage comics.

I'm not going to say it...I'm NOT going to say it...

Its not that bad, as long as you don't buy it. When I was a kid, I thought every Turtle toy was awsome, but now I know not to waste my money. Plus, as TetsuDeinonychus said, theres some really great figures coming out soon.

I'm guielty I bought all of em'. But yea, I forgot they were in the credits, thats true so I guess there was a reason. I think there cool (with the exclusion of Mikey, of course).
