Baxter Stockman Figure - Confirmed at Toy Fair!!

Not much info about this yet. So I'm not making it an official news story yet. But I wanted to share what I have. Trying to get more out of JayC. But playmates did announce that there would be a Baxter Stockman figure in the line this year. No news on which version of Stockman yet. I'm trying to get more info. But this was confirmed by the guy that runs American Dream Comics. Also, the news why we didn't see the Usagi figure.

So likely, prototypes haven't progressed ast basic sculpting yet, because Stan has to approve the enitre process before they can proceed from step to step. So it might not be until San Diego that we actually see Usagi.

omg!! Runns around like a raving maniac!! I swear to god playmates better make baxter!! gah!! lol
ok now that thats all out of my system thank you so much for posting that.
I was so upset we didnt see baxter or anything new at toy fair...toy fair this year was kinda lame but I guess its because we all see so much anymore..
the only 2 lines i collect are TMNT and the muppets...
and no new tmnt were shown and palisades was not allowing any photos of there toys huge disapointment this year.....
it kinda took the magic of toyfair away for me this year...it always seemed like this far away land wer eonly the elliet could view awsome things that no one has yet to see....but nothing new was shown cept that awsome shredder sword sooo I guess that counts as something but the sooner I see baxter they happier I will be!

I would have to agree that toy fair was a bitter disappointment in terms of TMNT but the news of Baxter and Usagi is cool.

Also there are some new Ghostbuster Figures coming out that look incredible. I was a big fan of that show too so I'm excited.

Yeah me too. We had already seen all of the tmnt figs at the toy fair. Just don't hope that they will make too many figs which aren't related to the new show or the games. Just like they did with the old show, cause that would suck big time.

If they made star trek turtles again or something like that

W00t! Usagi was one of my favorite figs from the old line. I hope they load him up with weapons and stuff.

This'll also show us his character design for the new toon .

This is the best news I've heard all day. Can't wait, definitely going to pick these two, don't think I'm going to waste any money on all the variants of the turtles though. I need a Baxter to complete my foot army. It just doesn't seem right without him .
