Super7 says they still have the TMNT license but were vague on how many more 2003 Ultimates were coming. They said they’re focusing on Reaction+ O-ring turtles instead, which are toon accurate, saying there would be at least 4 waves.https://youtu.be/-q6GPSBF1vE?is=axeGAdi9L-3wuTip
Also Tempestra is up at the usual sites as well.
Some Mondo 1/6 stuff as well.
Otherwise it’s been a very slow SDCC for turtle fans, which is sad to see when previous years had so many new releases to get excited about. But I guess this is what Mattel wanted, hope they’re happy with it because I’m sure not.
>>11856844Super7 are also known liars and are running out the clock. They do not have the license in 2027.
>>11856830Wait, neca is kill?
>>11856876No, retard they're not. They're just not doing more TMNT next year.
>>11856878Neca tmnt is kill is what i meant. But what about lingjihun and stuff?
>>11856887Also out. Joy Toy dropped out earlier than others
>>11856888Joytoy too?! Man, I loved the designs
>>11856887No one really knows. Theres just a lot of speculation based on what has been going on. But the fact mondo is still able to make stuff should tell you not everything is off the table. Some companies are still going to be allowed to make stuff still, either because their license expires at a later date than most of these other companies, or mattel simply doesn't view them as competition.
The irony is the "World of TMNT" is about to get so much smaller, thanks to the corporate overlords.
>>11856887>lingjihun and Heat BoysWe should wait for china wonfest. They probably still release everything announced last year.Also it's chinks. Even if they are lost license that's not going to stop them making new stuff.From western makers there currently only Mondo >>11856853 doing some new shit.
>>11856902I’m guessing with Mondo at least, it’s because they’re doing 1/6 and Mattel doesn’t plan on doing anything like that.
>>11856902>mattel simply doesn't view them as competitionProbably this. Mattel is all about cheap toys for kiddos. There no way they ever going to "100$ for single turtle" route.
>>11856844They’re a good line. I’m waiting on Wave 2
>>11856958It’s also fun to have Shredder scale with Megatron and Cobra Commander.
>>11856830Nooooo, I needed an updated single release of Irma with soft goods skirt.
I’m guessing this means Mezco is probably out as well? Shame…
>>11856958i wanna get these but the prices are really hard to justify and i've heard rumors they're going to go even higher soon
>>11856878Or any year thereafter. Neva is kill
>>11856971If Nevarro and Super7 are, then Mezco’s chances are slim.
>>11856971most likely, wonder if they'll even do the foot soldier they've been teasing I guess we'll find out today
>>11856974>>11856975You are such a lame troll
>>11856958>They’re a good line.Said no one ever.
>>11856977Relax, I'm not the one saying NECA is gonna die.And really, theres nothing stopping these companies from going to Mattel and asking for the rights again.
>>11856979He just said it though
When should we expect Mattel to do animated figures?
>>11856844fuck me. well i dont have any money or space anywayI guess that's the end of these threads for me. the movie line and Ultimates were all I was interested in.No idea why Mattel has decided to be just like Playmates and shut everyone else down
My Target did their collectibles reset but nothing new went out, it's just full of all this turtles stuff no one wants.
>>11856830Who's taking over?
>>11857123Early on. May also depend on if they do Playmates style designs. Bigger question is how many different lines will they do?
>>11857123They're not doing animated. The only thing they're doing is Mutant Myahem. And only a retard like CC would think otherwise.
>>11857137Mattel. No one else can, at least not until Mattel licenses it out again.>>11857148Maybe at first.
>>11857151There's no "at first " about it.
>>11857148You are actually delusional if you think they bought the master license and told everyone else to stop making tmnt to only make mutant mayhem.
>>11857157If you think they'll never go beyond the DOA sequel you're delusional. Especially if they continue Playmates' 'World of TMNT' branding.
>>11857148>MMIf Paramount is smart they'll dump it onto a streaming service and hope for the best. MM is pretty much dying and it's obvious Paramount wants to kill it in order to focus on the next live-action reboot.
Let’s take this time to remember all the good things people really wanted that NECA gave us… oh wait…
>>11857164>no moon face 2012 April really wanted is probably a stretch since she’s hideous but a Tmnt line without April is forever incomplete
>>11857164I could list a few dozen Archie characters...
>>11857164Oh wait, you're a fag that doesn't buy toys, so everything you say is irrelevant
>>11857161>>11857160You're a fucktard Boco, and you're delusional if you think they're touching the 80s toon outside of whatever original redesigns they do foe Chronicles.
>>11857185Suuure, never touch the still most popular incarnation of the franchise. That makes total sense.
>>11857189would gladly have picked this one up from rosscon
>>11856830So is that it? Neca will stop producing tmnt forever?
>>11857164>good things people really wanted that NECA gave us>being a pussy bitch even though there's 500 some odd figures out there to choose from, vehicles, dioramas etc
>>11857196Just for now. Nothing is stopping them from going to Mattel and trying to get the license again. If Mattel is willing of course.
>>11857193They're being mandated to focus on kid crap. That's the whole point of this, retard.
>>11857201I see
I always wondered why this one was silently canceled
>>11857202Its TMNT. Its all kid crap.
>>11857198>vehicles
>>11857202Oh, you're a loon! Where did you escape from, I'll take you back...
>>11857206Because they don't sell. I saw 6 boxes of Casey & April 2-packs at Ross.
>>11857213Oh you're a shithead, that explains everything!
>>11857221Except they do sell. There's a reason Walmart ordered them.
>>11857164It was tooled for costs too. Maybe a helpful Chinaman will liberate the tooling from the Neva factory and released it as a black market AliExpress exclusive.
>>11857231Uncle Ali always wins in the end
>>11857224Yeah because Turtles sell. April & Casey don't.
>>11857231What a moronic thing to say
>>11856963that gi joe transformers crossovers line was amazing im still waiting on the optimus prime mobat that was rumoured
>>11856876S
>>11857202>They're being mandated to focus on kid crap.prove it.
>>11857224so whats the reason walmart put them on clearance and the rest got dumped at discount stores?
>>11857413Because walmart distribution sucks and they didn't get to every store.Also they put everything on clearance whenever they want. Particularly if they're changing an aisle set.
>>11857461weird because they went on clearance at my walmarts after collecting a layer of dust in the same place for a year
>>11857466Weird, that doesn't change anything about what I said, you retard.
>>11857484well it clearly disputes your claim that they sell since they literally did not.
>>11857510They literally did sell, so no, it doesn't dispute shit. It means your shithole town sucks. That's what it means. If it didn't sell Walmart would have stopped carrying them, moron.
>>11857513>its walmarts fault>its the towns fault>its everybody's fault except the toy and who made it they literally didn't sell. they're rotting at ross right now. easily made observations. unless you're going to post neca's p&l statements to back up your point, all you're doing is trolling without any any proof to back up your statements.
>>11857519They literally did sell. They're at Ross because of shitty distribution and having to sell everything before 2027. You can go be dumb as hell somewhere else, but fuck's sake, do that do it here. They sold. Deal with it.
>>11857519Sounds like you do live in a shithole ngl
>>11857530>>11857532>a city sucks because they dont buy the toys i likecrazy delusional behavior. seek help! i didn't buy them because i think they look bad and i already have a movie casey i like more. if neca wanted me to buy it, they should've done a better job in their attempt to appeal to me. cope more!
>>11857536>i think they look badSo you are just trolling. Good to know. I accept your concession.
>>11857537>reeeeee don't express your thoughts on toys on the toy forumstill waiting for you to post verified proof of these sales you claim.
>>11857539Go on any social media and you’ll see tons of people posting pictures of them and reviews. They sold, extremely well in fact.
>>11857549and yet they're still available nationwide at deep discount. post verified numbers or fuck off, troll.
>>11857539Walmaert ordered them all. Walmart ordered more after.You're a dumb faggot.
>>11857552>still available nationwideYeah fucktard, you know how many Walmarts there are out there? Idiot.
>>11857574>>11857576post verified numbers or fuck off, troll. hell you haven't even posted your own toys. you're just screeching and shitposting and denying facts about their lack of appeal and their inability to move at clearance prices.
>>11856876rest in shit, thank fucking god
>>11857628Fuck right off. As if you even buy figures.
>>11857651>still no proof>still no toys>ross shelves still fulljust keep digging your hole, troll
>>11857651Truth. Look at Super7 with the Simpsons, they blew it and the line is dead. The NECA turtles are one of the most successful lines ever.
>>11857622The fuck are you on about? If they didn't sell, Walmart would've cut it off right then and there. It's crazy how mad you are over this.
>>11857674post verified numbers or fuck off, troll. hell you haven't even posted your own toys. you're just screeching and shitposting and denying facts about their lack of appeal and their inability to move at clearance prices. they hit clearance and now they're piling up at ross. not a sign of a hot seller. you can't deny the facts.
>>11857680The fact that they sold so well that Walmart asked for more two packs? And made them a staple in the horror area? You are so butthurt.
>>11857686and yet there they sit on ross shelves across the nation, not selling at deep discount after already not selling at walmart. but it must be every town's fault, right?
>>11857665In all fairness the simpsons as a property is completely dead, so super7 was trying to revive a putrefied corpse.
What are the chances we see mattel reveal their turtles line?
>>11857851Seems like something they'd save for NYCC.
>>11857883This. WAAAAAAAAY too early rn
>>11857906i dont have to like it to point out that its still not selling well. stay mad, buddy! it won't change anything.
>>11857942Funny, as mad as you are that it sold well? Not healthy at all. Maybe one day you'll grow up and see how stupid you were.
Just sucks, they finally started doing 2003 and 2012 Turtles, and now that's never gonna get completed.
>>11857968lol bilk.
>>11857680Post verified numbers that it didn't sell well
>>11858039Why are you pretending to be that poster?
Ah, another TMNT thread, chock full of childish slapfights. This franchise truly brings out the worst in people.
>>11858046i'll childish slapfight you, you fuck
>>11857665speaking of simpsons was jakks even at sdcc? is their line dead too?
well, Mattel, if you wanted to make me miss Playmates, you managed it
>>11857628>Neca shill killed the TMNT line by creating ill will for the company online and relegating product to ROSS.Love to see it happen.
>>11858397Love to see what happen? A thing you just made up in your head? How fucking sad.
>>11858397You are downplaying the years upon years of brittle plastics, sloppy paint and poor customer service it took for them to generate that much ill will. Go to any toy forum and ask people what they think of NECA. Nobody knows about our resident autistic, but they know how shit of a company they are.
>>11858478I don't disagree with you, but the schizo added more poison to the well.
>>11858478Oh but there you go making up more bullshit because you cannot help but troll. Normal people are not like you. They're not bitter shitheads.>>11858562The only schizo is you. Think about that. You've created a whole delusional fantasy because you're butthurt.
>>11858599Enjoy your dead line.
>>11857136A third of this stuff has been at Ross stores (and other stuff like the Casey + Nancy 2pk) for the past few weeks.>>11857536Neither of the Anons you are arguing with. I live in LA and go to 5-6 Ross stores multiple times in a month AND none of the Turtle's, Playmates or NECA there, pegwarms in any serious legit number. One foot soldier that some kid tore open the package here, one Reporter Nancy there, notwithstanding.tl;dr Sorry sister, YOU do live in a shithole full of shitty assholes like you who are too poor even for Ross.
>>11858798>bad product isn't selling>what are you? Poor?So out of touch.
>>11858798>my city of consoomers is better than yoursmaybe we just have higher standards than you
when I get enough time, I'm going to custom up my own remaining S7 ultimates. you'll see!
>>11858798>I live in LA>YOU do live in a shitholeHilarious. Nobody in LA gets to buy NECA figures from Ross because your ethnic majority shoplift them to sell on eBay.
>>11857202They have the master rights and are snuffing out all the collector lines. They are not doing this so they can focus on making toys for a part of the franchise that already failed in the toy aisle. They'll almost certainly copy what they are doing for MOTU. A collector line like Chronicles with a unique asthetic and a line that remakes the original toy line with updated articulation. Once those are established they'll introduce toons, comic, and concept figs into the two lines. If it's working for a dead brand like he-man it'll work even better for TMNT.
>>11858904>Once those are established they'll introduce toons, comic, and concept figs into the two linesNo they won't. Only a moron would think that way. They gain absolutely nothing by retreading ground. Especially aince they can't do it better or as deep.
>>11858802It's not shitty. Try not being so out of touch.
How is it that 2K3 and 2K12 managed to successfully revive the franchise and put it on the map again while every other attempt shits the bed?
>>11858943If you think they're not going to retread old ground you haven't been collecting toys for very long. Retards rebuy characters all the fucking time. Transformers fans are already demanding a new Sideswipe toy from the new Red Alert announced yesterday even though Devastation Sideswipe is still pretty fresh and the character gets released regularly in all his various paint decos when he gets a new mold. Fans will buy a new toon line eventually.
>>11858943I for one look forward to Mattel making a toon turtle line that doesn't fall apart when you look at it wrong.
>>11858946I never said shitty. But it's very telling of their quality that you read criticism and your mind went straight to "shit".
>>11859007Again, srupid bullahit you make up
>>11859011No it's that I know what a dickhead you are. And you proved it right there.
>>11858993>Transformers fans are already demanding a new Sideswipe toy from the new Red Alert announced yesterday even though Devastation Sideswipe is still pretty fresh and clearancing out at $12 or less in spite of "demand" I don't think online forums or shit that's plagued with bots is really the place to go to get a good idea of what will and won't sell. What people claim online and what they actually do is night and day. But let's be real, costs are getting worse and worse and there is only an upper limit of what people will spend so what we might be seeing is that hypothetical mass shrinkage of products as it becomes like comics where it's only offered in specialty places and little else.
>>11858101It's not dead but Disney is a horrid company to work with and you have to get the OK for anything being shown off to the point many times the companies that make the products just don't waste the time unless the mouse demands it like what happen with Star Wars from 2016 to 2019 where Hasbro was always having to do a booth at major cons even if no products to be announced because that's what the mouse wanted.
>>11859058Jakks showed off a new wave, so the line is still alive in some form.
>>11858955A blend of the seriousness of the comics and the goofy of the 80's cartoon.
>>118589552k3 didn't revive anything
I kinda just admired Super7's vintage style line from the sidelines, did they manage to do every vintage figure? or will the line end incomplete?
>>11859343Playmates allegedly made them stop doing updated vintage figures so they switched to 2k3.
>>11859324Yes it did you retarded zoomer, the brand was dead after Next Mutation killed it
>>11858805>>11858829There's a reason the NECA gen moves slowly and others ignore your shitty toyline other than for accessories or ro harvest for fodder.I personally have no interest in buying NECA anything, but it's hard to miss the stack of crap flooding or living at various stores.
i want ultimates and like 2-3 more movie figs back. and also some movie-styled characters but done well.
>>11859467Ohh that makes sense, and now they are possibly killing that too right?
>>11859515Everything is dying now. Except Mattel's stuff.But Mattel could always renew the contracts next year if they want.
>>11859532Super7 will still have the license, Brian said so.
>>11859542Nope
>>11859486It's crazy that you decided to be a shithead for no reason at all, but that seems to be your personality.
>>11859542>>11859544I only saw the Pixel Dan interview so maybe he clarified somewhere else, but there he was a little vague, he said there's more waves coming, but he didn't outright say they would continue after that.
>>11859549He didn't want to come right out and admit it, but they lost the rights too.
Someone please explain this bizarre obsession the fanbase has with Tempestra.
>>11859573She is essentially the last big-name character the Cartoon line had to offer (Besides Krang's robot body) and they've been avoiding her for years to do lesser characters and variants. People wanted to finish the Night of the Rogues line up. Its kind of like how MOTU fans threw down every time they didn't get an Origins Two-Bad announcement because he was the last major MOTU character Origins needed to do and they've been stringing fans along to hold onto their interest.
>>11859573She completed a team, was in Shredder's Revenge, etc.
Playmates last time reissueing the retro figs.
>>11860069rocksteady's fucking pants..>>11860073god, i was really hoping super7 would give us those characters. I have a lot of nostalgia for the movie line.
>>11860069>still no scratch before they lose the licenseRest in piss playmates, cant wait to watch them file for bankruptcy in the next few years. Scratch shouldve been reissued ages ago
>>11860069Gaaaaarbage
>>11860073Neat. I only ever had Leo back in the day.
>>11860069I take it thats not the remastered turtles and Rocksteady?
>>11860069>>11860073Leave it to Playmates to shit the bed, one, last, time.
>>11860069the subline now feels like a sign-off
>>11858955What I wonder about more is what if they had gone with the darker pitches for both.
>>11860166I know 2012's, what was 2K3's darker pitch?
>>11859486I don't know why you replied to me. I wasn't defending Neca. I was laughing at you for saying others live in a shithole while you live in Greater Mexico.
>>11860169prolly means the garbageman being hun's deformed twin who was tossed out and survived.
>>11858955Because rise of the tmnt was so badly written and outright refused to use much of the legacy characters in it in favor of shitty new OCs instead that were mostly bara bait (i will say begrudgingly that rise somehow has garnered a fanbase amongst primarily zoomer women) and while i liked mutant mayhem it felt like a combo of factors including the fact it started as a movie that many didnt go see and that the show spin off got dumped unceremoniously on paramount+ made it not as impactful as 2012 was>>11860166>>11860169What was 2012s darker pitch?
>>11860142I dont even think we are gonna get a remastered bebop. I think they only dumped out remastered rocksteady cuz they previously announced him and probably already had the tooling done and thats why he got released in that amazon set
>>11860180Splinter dies in the first episode and the turtles have to learn to live without him.
>>11860131You really do suck
>>11860170Trolls like you deserve to be trolled.
>>11860180>i will say begrudgingly that rise somehow has garnered a fanbase amongst primarily zoomer womenI refuse to believe that rise is popular with any demographic outside of the dumbest niggers
>>11860213did you just admit to trolling?
I never returned my extra Donnie’s lab and NECA tmnt is kill so I won
>>11860435Not that im doubting that NECAs tmnt line is ending but do we have any explicit statement from neca that their turtles line is over past 2026? I keep seeing people online say its a fact but i havent seen for sure proof of it yet. Im super autistic about that sorta thing prease understandu
>>11860180Rise is so overwhelming and overstimulating for me. I tried but it's just too much. >>11860184Playmates fucked that entire line so hard by releasing the bumpy turtles first. People really wanted an Origins-esque TMNT line and they didn't even try.
>>11860084I'm pretty sure they don't have the mold for him. I swear that was confirmed at some point. It really does suck they went out with such a whimper. They had the chance to flood the market of highly saught after figures and they didn't even make an attempt.
>>11860476>Playmates fucked that entire line so hard by releasing the bumpy turtles first. People really wanted an Origins-esque TMNT line and they didn't even try.I actually preferred the bumpy turtles but besides my personal preferences i think youre right and releasing the turtles with added sculpted detail in the first release killed the hype for the line>>11860479>I'm pretty sure they don't have the mold for him. I swear that was confirmed at some point. IIRC Every new reissue playmates toys has done is a brand new mold using the older sculpt. Even the reissues from the 2010s had new date stamps. They couldve easily have simply made new tooling using the scratch sculpt and released that like they should have several years ago>It really does suck they went out with such a whimper. They had the chance to flood the market of highly saught after figures and they didn't even make an attempt.And thats the same type of lazy half assed behavior that makes playmates losing the TMNT license so cathartic for me. Despite everything i actually enjoy playmates toys turtle figures but with asinine decisions like never putting out fan demanded characters like scratch or other hard to find characters as reissues and CONSTANTLY canceling figures they showed off at shows for no good reason i cant help but feel a catharsis at playmates toys losing the turtles license. Like they even teased scratch and hot spot several years back as apart of a wave that people could vote on and retards online voted for the wave roster that had much less rare characters in it and playmates even said they would get to him eventually but i guess not anymore. Im so pissed and i will be eternally mad about how awful playmates toys has treated TMNT for years now but i take comfort in the fact that they finally got their just deserts after all these years for constantly being lazy and cheap shits and its finally come back to haunt them will lead to their demise as a company. Fuck playmates toys!
>>11860476>Rise is so overwhelming and overstimulating for me. I tried but it's just too much.I totally agree, also they made the turtles way too cringe they sound like zoomer influencers or streamers and i say that in the most derogatory way possible.
>>11860462Trevor said as much to Pixel Dan at SDCC.https://youtube.com/shorts/OQBYqZ1OPfY
>>11860435You're a dumb lying retard
>>11860538Oh cool, thanks for the link. That does to confirm it tho it would be cool if theirs a couple figures left before the end of the year they havent shown off yet. Also i forgot how annoying pixel dans voice is
