They were $8.99 and they are virtually identical to the original release (with a solid head). Looking at the back of the packaging it looks like this wave will only be the more popular characters

I like the fact that they put the mini Krang with Shredder in there although I wish they released the figure sized Krangs Body version that it came with. I am kinda baffled that Slash made the cut though.
It's also funny how Playmates cut corners using generic packages with Stickers on the bubbles to identify them.

Nice! I still have mine, and all complete too, but this is great for those of us who want to relive that time.
Very cool indeed! I do agree on the packaging, though, could have been a bit nicer, and not half fast

I would consider getting Donatello, Casey, April and/or a Leonardo. But I would love a Mutegeon Man, Yusaki Yojimbo and Ray Filet!

These just came out at my local Target. I felt compelled to buy them, but I'll wait for a sale or something.

Cool little nostalgic kick in the face. I like that with the DVD stickers and such they're unique from the actual originals, but still relatively close enough in style at the same time.

I'm not sure if I will be picking this up. These cost double the price they were a couple of years back. Also, I want the NECA turtles more, as I read the scans of the original book at the official TMNT site when I was in college, and was blown away by how different it was. I LOVED IT! So the NECA figures appeal to me more. Nonetheless, seeing these reissues is a nostalgic kick in the face. In a good way. I am all about full articulation, but in rare cases, can overlook it so long as each figure in the line is consistent, plus these are nostalgic to me. It helps that I have no idea where my originals are, and that the last time that I saw them a decade or so ago, their forearms were detached and a pain to reattach(mere pegs, but they were hard to reattach!). These figures are all consistent in articulation, and I LOVED these as a kid! If we see samurai Leo, the Sting Ray guy, Wingnut, and others, I may bite, I just wish these were cheaper. Oh and the Party Van? Man I had to give mine up to my cousin when I was 6! See, his dad(my uncle) had bought it for me, but then my cousin started crying, and being that he wanted it more, I gave it to him. So perhaps I will buy the van too. It's been 20 years since I've seen one! |
