Well we're basically winding down waiting for things to ship or hit stores, no major news or releases until there's a Mattel leak for their year of no competition.The Mondo 1/6 scale Shredder will be going up on the Mondo Shop 8-25 for $265.
>>11879770>Oh Splinter-kun, I didn't see you there...
Mondo TMNT sofubi April and Splinter (2-PACK) as seen at SDCC.
>>11879774Sofubi Leatherhead
>>11879775And his lil' buddy, Gumbo (and kids)
Heat Boys Mikey went up for preorder. There's a deluxe just like the Leo. His extra parts let him be...well...
>>11879781More...New Yorky, yeah!
Not-Bebop should be shipping out fairly soon, seeing more images of the figure here and there.
>>11879770eyyy dat little guy's givin me da CLAW!actually that shredder looks exactly like all the times I tried to draw 'my version of the shredder' all cool with every samurai accoutrement I know...
>>11879783
>>11879775you get jim cummings to sign that sucker, it'll double in value>>11879782what in the fuck are his tit panels doing
>>11879782
>>11879785
>>11879791
Is it true NECA lost the license?
>>11879798Apparently eveyone lost tmnt license or will loose it in the next year. Only Mattel and some chinks remains.
>>11879785if this sucker were the right scale, I could see putting him on my movie figs shelf
>>11879800Hmm, unfortunate. At least maybe the Street Sharks collab will finally happen.
I opened all of my Super7s that I've been sitting on since the line started. The QC was not quite as bad as I feared. Nobody fell apart.
>>11879863
>>11879863that was unwise, you could have gotten replacements if any of them had brokenI do think the QC is exaggerated, but I did have about 6 major issues that required returns and replacements, including one case of metalhead michelangelo's backpack having two left straps>>11879875shit, the van looks damn good there. . Sometimes I wish I'd saved my money and gotten it on sale (recently) instead of getting the china van (years back) then... just putting it on a shelf and not doing much with it in the time it took for the S7 van to go on sale for the same price.
>>11879875>>11879863Looks rad anon. I got suckered into the Joy Toy ones instead so have them sitting there ready to do the same.
>>11879863Less about them falling apart and more just about them being super loosey goosey.
>>11879786Yamaguchi ruined figure sculpting.
is there a Shredder that scales with these, has the cartoon aesthetic, and isn’t shit?
>>11880121The NECA Ultimate Toon Shredder
>>11880121Well, there’s the NE- oh wait you said isn’t shit. Hmmm. Not sure honestly.
>>11880121Are you me? I just posted that i orded these in the shf thread and am now looking for other figures to go with them that aren't 7inch neca, but i guess that's why people are selling them off since after 10 years there's still nothing.That said, think the neca will scale as bandai made these too big and are more 1/10 than 1/12.
>>11880123Fuck off you shithead troll
>>11879962It is destiny.
>>11880122>>11880126thanks fellas
>>11880150
Apologies if this has been discussed already, but whats with the sticker on the back of Slash Storm Shadow over one of his accessories? What got left/taken out?
>>11880359Your mom
>>11880580nice. they do make a cool crew, don't they? god... I hope someone picks up the slack someday or.. something..>>11880584your gleeful mixing of old figures in, along with the nice diorama, makes me assume you're the guy who made that cool elaborate sewer diorama
If Mattel does end up doing TMNT Origins, what are the chances of the distribution of most of the waves being shit to the point of Mattel switiching to shows?
>>11881539Distribution will be shit. That's a guarantee. They still can't get it right with MOTU having gone on as long as it has.
>>11881544I don't keep up with MOTU. What's the problem? Store exclusives? Stuff selling out too fast?
>>11881747It varies. Some stores pack pegs with waves no one wants, so they just rot and the good stuff never gets put out. Especially Walmart. They seriously fucked over the TMNT/He Man crossover.
My Amazon chopper arrived. Its pretty coo.
If you somehow didn't buy these the first go-around, the Playmates re-release Battle Shell turtles are showing up at Ollie's it would seem. At least at mine.
>>11881844>insert sarcastic jokes about why nobody wants hatchet-faced old people figures
>>11881854Damn kids need to respect famous actors.
>>11881844I would expect Ross and Ollies to be receiving a shitload of Turtles figures as the deadline approaches for current license holders to clear all remaining inventory from their warehouses.
>>11881877if Eltingville Club was still around, I'd expect a joke about some guy trying to pass off a Tarkin Black Series figure signed by Peter Cushing, and being informed the guy died 19 years before the toyline began, and he'd be like "nuh uh, I just saw him in the new movie"
"I'm an engineer."
can't get rid of these mistakes.
>don't own any 1/6 turtles>considering getting the mondo shredder just to go with skeletor and mumm-ra I do haveI'll need a 1/6 cobra commander too if i go in on this idea I guess...
>>11886457Joy toy didn't lose the license, S7 didn't lose the license, no other third party lost the license for TMNT.
>>11886576joytoy very clearly stopped releasing any tmnt
>>11879805Keep the dream alive brother
>>11886580Beyond based
>>11886588isn't it amazing how much better the world would be if people had just been willing to tell generations of young girls 'no'?
>>11886580This can’t be real
>>11886576>Joy toy didn't lose the license,Bitch they purposely didn't renew because the license was being pulled from everyone.>S7 didn't lose the licenseYes they did. Theirs expires in 2027, like Mondo. The license is pulled from EVERYONE, including third parties. You fucking idiot.
>>11886616And the proof of this is....?
>>11886580Jawesome.
>>11886705Literally everyone in the business saying it.
Super7's license contract is 'uncertain'NECA's license loss is confirmed.
>>11888505Wrong. Super7 is done after their failed 2k3 line finishes up.
>>11888533No... Only seeing NECA hard confirmed for losing the license. S7 has 'Uncertain, it depends on Paramount and Mattel.'. You're probably right, though.
>>11888541Everyone has lost the license.
>>11888547Mondo still has it.
>>11888560Only until mid 2027. This has all already been talked about. Everyone has lost the license.
if super7 would just crank out as many classic ultimates as possible before the time's up.. i would somehow buy them.
>>11888569How do you 'Somehow buy' something?
>>11888565i guess they are probably done after the turtles and shredder then? theres not a lot of time for much else with their release schedule and these prices
>>11888571With the money I'll somehow earn... between now and then. I'm looking real hard, but every job is just AI trainer.Ideally I would get the job of designing those new figures. I would kick that job's ass. I would punch it right in the nutsack. It's what I was born to do. Unfortunately the toy industry is shit, and there's already tons of super competent people like Four Horsemen, already established and not looking to hire more.
>>11888581I’m pretty sure mondo confirmed a foot soldier and bebop and rocksteady before they lose it
>>11885956Wait I'm stupid what's the turret from?
>>11888637TMNT X G.I. Joe Raphael/Roadblock.
>>11888632Shit, that explains it. I don't have any of that resilience or recovery shit. Each new bad thing that happens damages me a little worse, and I never do recover. Things DO either just come naturally to me or not. And sometimes I randomly get good after years of not practicing. Son of a bitch. Oh well.
>>11888505In Brian Flynn’s interview it sounds like Ultimates are uncertain, but Reaction+ figures will get at least a few more waves, and that TMNT may continue in that form because they’re a different form factor. Ultimates are just too similar to what Mattel will actually do and were made to fit in with MOTU Classics and were made at one point in the same factory where Mattel made their figures.
>>11888656dammit mattel just let them do it. do your own version that costs a tenth as much. yours will be on store shelves, theirs will be sold online. you are not in competition.
>>11888656>will get at least a few more wavesNot even a few.

MM REALLY must have fucked up the franchise.
>>11879798lol
>>11888798i'd rather play the 2k3 games in a collection, I'm told they were really good, and had a fuckton of secrets like you could just put in a code to play as splinter.
>>11888810Are you having a stroke or something? Tard.
What are the chances of future versions of the series featuring Mutant Mayhem's "The turtles acting more like actual teenagers, wanting people to notice them, and even attend high school with humans in an attempt to make them more relatable" shit despite it being one of the main reasons MM failed and fucked up the franchise?
>>11889130>"actual teenagers"modern retards. I like when the turtles are half '80s/90s teens, the kind who go on adventures and are independent adults' and half 'warriors raised in isolation by a martial arts master'
>>11889130Wow, that sounds fucking lame.
The lingjihun tmnt are in stock in bbts; inflated price but this is probably the last shot to ever get them. Are they worth it bros?
>>11890112Nah, you've got enough turtles.
What are the definitive turtles nowadays? I don’t own any and I see a lot of people praising the Mezcos. I only want one set of turts.
>>11890118you’re probably right however it’s the turtapocalypse and I’m not buying mattel slop, the fomo has got me good
>>11890120The NECA Lawson Turtles
>>11890120Pick your poison. Choose your player.
>>11890120Lawson Turtles by NECA, or any of the toon ones from them too. Depends on the style you want. The Last Ronin turtles or even the Fortnite turtles...
>>11890120for me, its definitely the mezco ones, but i really like the lingjihun ones too
>>11890120The Fortnite Turtles
Finally found a Slash Storm Shadow at Target and man this the best playmates TMNT fig ever. Was going to wait on a discount store clearance dump for the rest, but Im temted to get Leo now. Shame were only getting one wave.
>>11896531definitely a highpoint for playmates. Scale that sucker up and I put him on my S7 shelf no question
NECA hitting TMNT with the nostalgic itty bitty April. Look how tiny she is. Man, I'm gonna miss the toon line. What ever mattel makes is not going to capture what NECA was able to do with the line. Shame we never got Sakin in his dojo kimono or his Miami Vice getup. And the Giant Krang, goddamnit!
New Reaction+ Turtles
>>11900172still doing undersized guns even here..
>>11900291It was part of his design in Ultimates. He was larger and supposed to be using a human size power drill.
>>11900321I'm sure that's what at least one person thought, whether during the design process, or afterward, to excuse it.but no, that is not what that weapon is
>>11900434> that is not what that weapon isSays turtle shell drill on the file card and that he’s 5’10” and weighs 265 lbs.They just made him taller, because it “felt” like he should be taller, so they scaled the weapon as human size.
>>11900483well I still prefer to think of it as also-a-laser-gun because it has a fucking scope on it. and it's clearly a fictional drill, so it can be any size.
>>11896531>discount store clearance dump for the rest,Walmarts in my area are seemingly overstocking Playmates last hurrah of TMNT. Definitely waiting on the rest to go on sale. For some reason WM decided to only stock Leo and Krang for the single box releases.
>>11900172Nobody cares about that shit
seems lingjihun is not dead yet
>>11901828
Hey has "ADAM" ever released anything before this? Like I doubt we'll see another not-casey after this guy, but it's pretty a pretty steep price for a first-try toy from an unknown company, no matter how the touched up prototype pics look.
>>11901902nobody gets Casey righthe's not a fucking skater punk, he's a testosterone-fueled guido goombah with a chip on his shoulder. he's the Punisher with sports equipment, not... a hoodie ninja.
