WHOA, WHOA, hold it!
Hamato Yoshi is the human form of Splinter? I've always learned that Splinter's pre-mutation form is a rat, and he learned Ninjitsu from Hamato Yoshi, before Hamato Yoshi got killed. When did that changed? |

Are they also potentially showing the upcoming Sewer Lair in these pictures?

Looks like a nice set, if it's available when I go I'll pick it up.
They've shown that off before in various other photos, but I imagine something like that is coming. Maybe after the van is delivered. |

In the original Mirage Comics and Movie, Yoshi owned Splinter as a pet. In the new IDW run, Splinter is the reincarnation of the Feudal era Yoshi. |

I'm really hoping they reveal a new April to replace the old one - it was just a total misfire and the prototype looked much better.
As for this set, I don't see myself getting it, but I do like the accessories. |

As for this set, I never thought I'd be totally uninterested in a human Baxter, but after seeing this, I am totally uninterested. |

Perfect SDCC set IMO... which means really cool, but I don't want it.

In the original cartoon Yoshi was somehow turned into a rat. In the original comics and every other iteration since (at least, as far as I know), Splinter was Yoshi's pet rat.

In the 2012 CGI TMNT series Splinter was also Hamato Yoshi. He even had a human daughter from pre-ratification.

Yoshi is never a full-on rat in the old cartoon. In the 1987 show, he is a human in the sewers who takes care of four baby turtles. They are then all mutated by the pink (later green) mutagen, and he becomes a rat/man hybrid.

IIRC, this was also the case in the Mirage comics. But yes, in the original 'toon and toyline, he was indeed Yoshi himself. Last edited by Sataninjaku; 05-25-2022 at 10:46 AM.. |

I know in many other iterations Yoshi and Splinter are separate characters, with Splinter being a rodent first and then a rodentman. |

Didn’t really know where else to put this, but for anyone that missed out on the catwoman from Channel 6 set, it’s available here, I’d get one myself but they don’t ship internationally.
