[Ravenxl7]

Writing this down so I can post it when the discussion thread gets started. Looking forward to the panel, but I'm a little worried that it'll be more about the show than the toys.

-Coverage brought to you by Kickback. Thank you Kickback, thank you.
-Asking about pictures...comment actually gets through this time...and yes, there will be pictures.
-Kickback's favorite Turtle is Raph, so is mine.
-Long video? Cool, hopefully the do talk about the toys, and this doesn't end-up entirely about the show.
-Montage of toy gimmicks from the original toy-line you say? Kinda wish I was there to see that. Sounds awesome.
-Good to know that Playmates has kept around some people from the goodl-old-days.
-History of the TMNT toys, ok, cool, but could we get to the modern stuff before the panel is over?
-No toys, just history...ok, I can be patient.
-Season two starting this September, and season three starting next September...predictable, but nice to know.
-YES, Classic Collection, PLEASE have some good news for us.
-Turtles are re-shipping, I've heard, and I'm going to go out and get me a Raph.
-Rocksteady and Bebop, already knew about them, but nice to know they're still being released.
-Classic Collection 1990 movie Turtles. I like the idea, but would have liked to have seen more OT figurs first.
-All four Turtles, predictable, but still, nice to know. I'll probably get Raph unless they also do SotO figures.
-Reissues of the original Shredder and Krang figures, and another reissue of the Turtle van. Interesting, I might get the van.
-2004 Mechwreckers riessue...I'll have to look those up, I don't remember those.
-Turtles in-training, Shredder 2.0, already seen these one's before.
-Power Sound FX figures...maybe other characters?
-Throw and battle turtles, saw these before, but not a good look at them.
-Giant figures, soft body figures, bsic vehicles...all while I was on the phone.
-Grass kicker and shell flyer sound interesting.
-Turtle sub with Don sounds cool.
-Role play items, all the stuff we already knew about.
-A Shredder mask? That's new, and should be interesting to see.
-Hulk-style Turtle hands? Sounds good to me.
-Water weapons, could be fun.
-Walkie talkies, I KNEW it.
-Bopbags and hands, and a ninja blaster. Oh if I was a kid again.
-Soft foam roleplay weapons sounds like a good idea. Especially with my hellion of a nephew.
-No more reveals, well that was overall disappointing.
-They hinted at movie stuff, so they should have had SOMETHING to at least say about it.
-Back to Classic Collection stuff?
-OT Turtles, already released, Rocksteady and Bebop, out soon, and then the 90's movie Turtles.
-Reissues of Shredder, April, Foot Soldier, and Krang...sounds good to me. I'll probalby get a couple of them...if not all of them...lol.
-Q&a session, hopefully this goes better than the TF 30th Anniversary Q&A.
-Apparently there weren't any worth-while Q&A stuff...

Over-all rather dissapointing, to be completely honest. I'm glad to see the Classic Collection is continuing, but was REALLY hoping for more OT figures. At this rate I'll get two, and both of them will be Raph's. The news about more reissues is nice. Also, they teased movie toys before the con started, and yet there was NO news about them. Oh well...

Ummm...I think you forgot about Rocksteady and Bebop...
