D00MTR0N · 07-10-2012, 07:25 PM

whats the case breakdown,how many shredders per case?

T16skyhopp · 07-10-2012, 07:47 PM

Kraang is awful. Shredder is okay, but not as good as the turtles. He needs knee joints like whoa.

Classics are up on Amazon.

$20 though... I think I'll wait for Target.

Optimus Vader · 07-10-2012, 09:08 PM

Yeah, screw that.. my BBTS preorder is $55 for the set.

They are up on Target.com, I do not collect 6inch so they are all yours.

These are probably too big for 3.75, but i'm just curious about how they stand next to 3.75 MUs.

Anyone got a pic?

They could be in scale if they were giant rubber costumes worn by big superhero sized people :P

Optimus Vader · 07-11-2012, 08:28 AM

They're actually in scale with Legends since they're around 5" tall and the Turtles were always a little shorter than Humans.

Thanks T16. Appreciated.

Optimus - nail on the head. I was hoping i was wrong.

Regardless, they still have a place somewhere in my collection. I kinda like the stylized ones more versus the classic ones.

I dunno about legends. Because there are humans in the TMNT line and thy are taller than the turtles, but still way smaller than Legends.

Yeah, that doesn't look right... scratch my previous post.

I wish the Classic ones were in a true 6" scale and were about 5" or so in height. That would be SWEET. But they're way bigger I think

D00MTR0N · 07-11-2012, 08:52 AM

does shredder have knee articulation,anyone??

Here are two cool reviews of the figures courtesy of Infinite Hollywood and The Fwoosh. The figures look like they're just barely too big for Marvel Legends and DCUC but just right compared to MOTUC, which I personally couldn't be happier with! But I'm sure I'm in the minority on that one. I look forward to having these classic turtles along side my Masters.

Yeah. I want. They look NECA scaled to me mostly. I just hope that if these sell well enough and Playmates does want to make more a 7" Shredder doesn't mean they need to cut his articulation way down.

Nope, Playmates wanted him to sit on the pegs so they cut his articulation down.

Morons.

Now I'll just be waiting for the classics.

Optimus Vader · 07-11-2012, 10:38 AM

I just hit another TRU who I know gets trucks on Wed and they were JUST putting the Turtle stuff out, so I thought I'd get my Leo, but they actually got just the vehicles in today and no single-pack figs. My trio feels so incomplete.

I love the first looks on Fwoosh. Based on every image I've seen, review I've read, and hands on experience with the modern Turtles,.. Playmates really did their homework. I hope kids dig the new show because they have a killer toyline waiting for them.

Black Dynomite · 07-11-2012, 11:07 AM

Uh oh... Im noticing a trend. Seems like everyone is searching for Leo. I'm not even getting ready to hunt that thing down like those damn Avenger 6 inchers. Still praying for a Widow.

Optimus Vader · 07-11-2012, 11:15 AM

You can always get him on Amazon for $12.
