Cool. Thanks for the tip. Looks great. :)

She must be going undercover for a story.

Chicagoans looking for the TMNT ... I found some at Target on W 33rd St and Damen off of I-55. It had a few of the turtles, splinter and shredder. Not sure about the others. I just picked up myself a Leonardo.

You can post that in the sightings thread. Probably be more helpful.

HOLY CRAP! XD That looks terrible. Think the sculpters could have made her boobs bigger? XD Love how she comes with lavender "weapons" that her hands TOTALLY could hold XD

No problem. ^_^ I know the molded chains could bug the crap out of people...they bugged the crap out of me XD

So, does anyone know where the playset has shown up, and how much it costs?

saw it at TRU today, was 119.99.

Found these figures (entire set) at a Gordmanns.. haha

That chain upgrade is awesome. Thanks for the info. I wanted to do that since the plastic chain on Michelangelo warps.

Oh man... saw these for the first time at Target yesterday and they looked great. Don't really care about articulation and what not... they just looked great... so damn nostalgic.

Can't start buying ninja turtles though... pretty much done with buying Joes and wrapping up my MU buying. The finish line is so near.

I picked up Classics Leo & Don today (good eyes!). I only need Mike now.

Hey guys I have been hearing that the eyes on the Classics are all kinds of FUBAR'd, can someone tell me exactly what happened and how the eyes are supposed to look?

I might have to try that.
I hand painted all the weapons for now. Before I did though, Mikey's nunchuks were starting to show stress marks from storing them in his belt. The silver is hiding it now, but real chains would make them look epic like your picture shows. Plus I love how it makes them look and allows better play interaction.

People are talking about the black/pupil part of the eyes being off. It's just a black circle of paint on the white part of the eye, but if they aren't centered it can look like they're cross-eyed.. or like Steve Buscemi in Mr. Deeds.

updated the paint a bit. these guys are awesome!!

Everyone is making these looks so nice with custom paint jobs I really need to start working on that. It can't be that hard once you get all the right tools and paints, right?

very simple. really nice upgrade

very simple. black paint and a 10/0 brush and some water. long smooth line strokes. use thumb to wipe off exess paint

Yeah I, noticed that too. I'm in the process of doing the chain fix that was posted. Very helpful post btw. Bought the chains from michaels and I'm putting the finishing touches on the repainted weapons.

Looks good. Mine are almost done.

Another upgrade to shredder. I gave my girlfriend a project to give him a cape. I'm happy with the results. She did a good job. I joked and said her next project is to give him knee joints, lol.
Made out of felt and is semi poseable.

Agreed on the Rocksteady and Bebop.



And Leatherhead, I just needs me a Leatherhead.

Picked the new Leo and Mikey up today didn't have enough for Raf and Don. Hopefully next time first time I saw them today. Like what they are doing do far.

Found all the classics the other day but could only get one. My name is Michael Angelo, so I just got him for now. I tend to always do that when I buy Ninja Turtles. haha :D

Grrrr... Target in Omaha has pegs up for the basic figures, but only Turtles they have out are the sound FX ones, the van, the skateboard, and the cycle... no classics... no basics... no foot ninja cycle... :P the empty pegs are mocking me...

aargh! Want those classics so bad!
