Is this something people are really clamoring for? Rereleased crappy toys? I mean, 1.) Did they already do this a couple of years ago? 2.) What dude my age doesn't have a tube of these tucked away in their basement or attic? Senseless, I tells ya!

With TMNT being basically the #1 toy line right now, there's a lot of young kids, newcomers and new collectors that never got a shot at these or were even around the last time they saw a release. Plus having these reissued helps to flesh the "Classic" part of the TMNT line. Plus, if these things selling help to fund more 6" classics, then I'm all for it. I need me a new Shredder, Krang and Splinter.

All I would be interested in is a re-issue of the blimp. Don't care which one, the designs on the balloon don't matter to me. Just gimme a damn blimp.

And I'm still confused as to why they put those mech walkers out. Then again, if I were a kid I'd probably be all over those - even with those terrible 80's turtles.

Id love to see "Smiling" or "Goofy" faced extra heads for the articulated classic turtles released. A Splinter and a Slash figure would be awesome too!

They seriously need to re-release classic Casey Jones and Mondo Gecko. I sound like a broken record saying this every time the classic line comes up, but so be it!

It's almost like they're going out of their way to not make a new larger Super Articulated Shredder. Seriously, get on it!

It doesnt matter what comes out people will always complain, I just ordered all six today, didnt get a chance to buy them 20 some years ago and I'm not willing to pay $100 per action figure now days just because they are vintage toys! With this new release I get the best of both worlds (vintage look with modern articulation... Bamm!!!) I'm more than happy!!!!

You should check Ebay I just recently bought 22 turtles complete, a wagon, a foot cruiser, Killer Bee and a 11" Krang all for under 100. But if you went with the 6 inch figures... Thats even better!!

Since TRU was the only place I ever saw any Classics TMNT stuff, it kind of makes sense. I've got no problem with re-releasing the old toys. My wallet has a problem with the pricing, though (No way should the Party Wagon cost THREE TIMES as much as the Shellraiser).

That said, my wish list is Casey Jones for both the 6" and 4" lines, along with 6" versions of Splinter, Shredder, Slash, Tokka and Rahzar. Ok, maybe Kraang too.

I'm loving the classics line. Ive purchased my son the 4 6" figs, and any others that may be released. I'm especially hoping for a Shredder though, he's never been given the details he deserves..
And I picked up the Party Wagon, but I really hope the Technodrome gets some love, as well as the Turtle Blimp. I wouldn't mind seeing all the old vehicles come back.
Of coarse I also keep hoping they'll do the same with M.A.S.K. as well.
Keep it up Playmates, I want more, lol.
