I broke down and ordered them because I love the sculpts. Still don't care for the scale. Just found out from Playmates official Facebook page there are currently no plans for any other Classic TMNT figures other than the four turtles. But they may consider it depending on sales.

You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return... -
Picked up the new Shellraiser turtle van at Target today. It's pretty nice looking and not a bad deal for $29.99. It's fairly big. It's one of those one time assembly deals though. No way getting it back in the box once it's put together. Crap load of stickers too. About half dozen of them are pretty small and you have to fit them into really tight places. Once it's all assembled and all the stickers are on, it looks cool on the outside and is kind of a weird mix of a van and a subway car. Not much for detail on the inside though. No seats for the figures or even a stearing wheel. The spring out spinning action feature is kinda cool. But I would have prefered more detail on the inside, like seats.You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion.

The TRU near me had an end cap of the new TMNT toys and it was already pretty well picked clean. Maybe a half dozen of the basic figures left. Even the vehicles are selling. I was able to get the Sewer Spinnin' Skateboard, Rippin' Rider and the last Ninja Stealth Bike. The Foot Clan Dragon Chopper was already sold out.Last edited by Werewolf; Jul 21, '12, 7:19 PM.You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing.

Still reviewing these guys and today we're looking at everyone's favorite nerdy Turtle, Donatello!
I gotta be honest, I really like this figure. I'm torn between him and Mikey as my favorite of the Nick designs.
It's sort of amazing how much I've forgotten my hatred of the third toe. That's thanks in part to the great sculpts and ton of fun that these guys are.
As usual, I got the full breakdown so take a look if you're thinking about picking one of these guys up!

I've seen the new Nick Turtles at Target and TRU, and after much back and forth, passed both times. I initially thought about picking up a a MOC set, but all were pretty banged up, so I thought about opening a set of the 4 Turtles on a shelf...but the paint apps on these are pretty bad. Both times I was only able to find one of the four that didn't have smudges, paint slop, rubs or bleeding. The teeth, masks and knuckle wraps I've seen have been terrible. I've looked at 10 different Donatellos in particular and for some reason every single one has dark smudges on his head or nose (??)...Guess I'm out unless I find a better looking set.Comment

April is training to be a ninja, but is her figure still in training? Well it's definitely missing a few pieces of articulation...
But she's also the most articulated April O'Neil figure ever from Playmates.
Yup she's growing on me! Complete detailed review over at the usual!

Notice anything off about the Power Sound FX Mikey I got from amazon?
Thats right, it's actually Raph.
The PSFX figures have a lot less articulation than the basic size Turtles but are bit more show accurate in sculpt. They have painted eyes and stumpy looking feet of the CGI toon designs. Scale wise, Raph is maybe an inch and a half taller than the basic one. The sound feature does work well and Raph says four phrases.You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing.
