I think this might be the best wave yet. Oh, man.

I haven't been getting this line since I have all the originals, but man, that Ray Filet looks awesome. He was one of my favorite figures when I was a kid.

These all look pretty great. I'm most interested in the Samurai Leo, they really did great with him!

Oh man! Amazing! I love this Super7 line.
Funny enough, Leatherhead is my least favorite. I was always disappointed by the original figure. One of the only instances where I actually preferred the cartoon appearance. Although this is a faithful update. |

Wow, another wave that strongly tempts me to get in on this line. Still, looks pretty good for the updated nostalgia feels.

It's so odd they insisted on scaling up Rocksteady & Bebop but not Leatherhead. He looks more goofy than terrifying.
I wish Ray Fillet's alt head didn't have fangs. Leo looks thin for a turtle wearing samurai armor.

Yeah, he's strangely spindly-looking, especially compared to Ray.

Are they scaled up? All I have is Bebop and Baxter and they look way too large to go with the NECA Turtles.

This is my favorite line going right now. Ray Fillet was such a surprise...amazing. I love how expressive and dynamic the alternate Krang is. Sewer Samurai Leo looks badass. Leatherhead, I was curious how they would execute him...and, for better or for worse, he looks like the vintage figure. I'd hoped they'd take a few more creative liberties with him, but accept that it fits the MO of the line. And I don't know how much bigger they could have realistically made him.
I'm really curious what Wave 6 will be. I'd assume one of the other Turtles in Disguise (hoping for Undercover Don next), Rat King, Genghis Frog, and someone weird like Pizza Face. |

Wave 1: April yellow/orange and yellow/white suit variants Wave 2: Ace Duck General Traag Genghis Frog Rat King Usagi Yojimbo Wave 3: Fugitoid Napoleon Bonafrog Panda Khan Pizza Face Slash Scumbag Wingnut/Screwloose Undercover Don Surfer Mike Space Cadet Raphael They'll probably include one each of those 3 remaining turtles in disguise in the next 3 waves just so they can keep including a main turtle in every wave. Beyond those, we'll probably get Rat King and another wave 3 character in wave 6. I'm hoping for Slash, Wingnut/Screwloose, and Fugitoid next too before the rest of these leftover characters. Have they resolved the licensing issues with being able to do Usagi Yojimbo yet? Last edited by ShabbyBlue; 04-27-2021 at 06:43 PM.. |

In the original line, Bebop & Rocksteady were basically the same size as the turtles. In this line, they've specifically been made an inch taller to be more imposing. I would've expected Leatherhead be given similar treatment. Now he looks even shrimpier by comparison.

Could you find the interview??? I'd like to watch. Quote:
Samurai Leo is totally badass. I wasn't really looking forward to it much. I'm on board now. The Krang faces are AWESOME! Fun upgrade. |

I've been tempted to pick up a few of these guys, but the lack of availability of Leo and Raph, as well as the high prices, have kept me from doing so.
Ray Fillet would've pushed me over the edge, but now the prices have gone up another $10... Now I'm back to not being sure, although I have pre-ordered everyone I want thanks to BBTS putting up more wave 1 and 2 pre-orders, so I have orders locked in while I think about it.

Ray Fillet looks amazing. Others don’t wow me. I guess it’s because the Tmnt toys were the “weak link” of Tmntmania in the 80’s/90’s. Cartoons, comics, and video games were great, but the toys were a mess. Forget the poor articulation, but most looked nothing like their cartoon or comics version.
Usually when I see a nostalgic “ultimate” retro toy, it brings back warm feelings of my childhood. These just remind me how frustrated I was with Playmates as a kid. Oh well, to each their own. I’m thankful collectors have options today, especially with the Tmnt brand. Neca and Super7 have managed to appease fans in ways that seem foreign to Playmates Toys.

Ray looks fantastic...and is one of my favorite Playmates figures of all time. I certainly did not expect them to make that deep of a dive so soon. (Pardon the pun.) It gives me hope we might see Panda Khan, Walkabout, or Wingnut and Screwloose sooner than later. |

It bugs me they didn't do it since they went to the effort of re-creating all the little things that you would put in the old one to float around...and you can't do anything with them. His hands are too big to hold them. |

They look great, especially the Samurai Leo, but too expensive.
