Who is excited for the new TMNT figs?

I was just drooling over images of the new Turtle figs which seem to boast unprecedented articulation (for a Turtle) and great sculpts... particularly interested in the designs for the new Nickelodeon cartoon as they seem based on the appearance of the turtles in the original comics (sort of like the Neca versions).

Anyone else getting antsy for these? Even if I don't end up collecting the line I can see the original four making some nice desk-porn.

I've got my eyes on the classics line to start, maybe just the turtles in the new line as well pending on prices

I am really excited for the Classics line! The animated line looks awesome as well, just no room or money for both of them though. I want to find a way to get that sewer playset, its so incredibly awesome.

This is something I might pick up if I see it at retail. I'm not going to go out of my way to hunt them down though or preorder.

Re: Who is excited for the new TMNT figs?

I googled and wow they look awesome!

Brings back fond memories as a lad, collecting the bw comics, (cheesy) films/cartoons, and hours at the arcade playing the game - on 1 quarter w/ Donatello

Tough as it is (in most cases) I'm skipping... I've got to keep to my main interests (DC/Marvel). But the "unless" conditions really get me...i.e. low price, in-hand weak-willed breakdown, etc..

I hear you, man the sheer scale of that playset is mind boggling - been years since a playset that ambitious has come down the pipe (no pun intended)

Agreed... I'm not going to get raped on Ebay for these or order them special, but if they end up at the local TRU I'll liberate them fo' sho.

Re: Who is excited for the new TMNT figs?

I'm going to try and convince my 8 year old that he needs the play set and the animated figures for christmas haha then pick them up on sale at retail if possible.

As for the Classics.. I want them bad but like everyone else money and self space is at a premium. With me jumping on the MLs bangwagon again (was trying my hardest not to but the figures were too awesome in person) that takes away both of those from me. So do i cut something from my self? Ghostbusters perhaps? G1 TFs? I already took down my vintage He-Man stuff to make room for MLs.. decisions decisions.

I think I might pre-order them and deal with the fall out of shelf space later! They can share with the SH Figuarts Dragonball figures i have to make room for that are sitting in my pile of loot.

6" Classics for me, they're looking pretty great so far. Hopefully we see more than just the 4 turtles, or at least Splinter and Shredder.

This for me too.

I like the Classics line only, I'll probably buy them if I see them, but it's not high on my priority list.
