youbastards Posted December 8, 2014 Author Share Posted December 8, 2014 (edited) Zach, If you can share, are there any plans to pack extra parts to make the other mutants "transforming". Chris Bradford -> Dogpound Xever -> Fishface Hamato Yoshi -> Splinter Etc... Might be a cool way to market the part swapping ability of Minimates and get civilian characters we might not otherwise see released.

DSTZach Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 There will be second assortment at KMart. Not sure we'll be doing transforming features. The three mutants I know of in Series 2 are all either one form or the other. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trekker 42 Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 Long as someone like Splinter or Kasey isn't Kmart exclusive all is well. Don't care a whole lot about the mutants (Although they would be nice to have) but major Turtleverse characters like Splinter or Kasey I just gotta have.

MisterMiracle Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 Well that's pretty awesome news! I'm glad we're getting a Series 2, a Mutagen Donnie, Casey, and some villains! That regular human to mutated version is a great idea. I would definitely buy doubles to have one of each. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dr baghead Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 (edited) BAH! Why isn’t anyone selling Mutagen Raph on eBay!?! After getting Leo and seeing him next to Mikey I find them too cool not to have a set and I can’t justify $92 to buy a case. EDIT: Oh, so I’m not not just bitching in this post, have some quick customs: I don’t like Modern April or Shredder, so I did my best to recreate their 80’s looks (man, yellow is a SUPER hard to find color for minimates) I also needed to make Professor Perry from TMNT2:tSotO because for the last 23 years anytime I’m down to the last of something I hold it up and say “Well... you’re the last one, aren’t you?”, I need a minimate to remind me of that scene, man. (you can pretend he’s Baxter Stockman if you want, even if he’s not African-American or a Fly, but he’s Professor Perry) Edited December 8, 2014 by dr baghead Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donny B Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 Brilliant. Absolutely brilliant. Especially Shredder. I am so desperate for TMNT mates based on the old series. I also needed to make Professor Perry from TMNT2:tSotO because for the last 23 years anytime I’m down to the last of something I hold it up and say “Well... you’re the last one, aren’t you?” This made my day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valo487 Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 Zach, does the license require a character to show up on the show before you can make them? I know they made new versions of Bebop and Rocksteady for the toyline, but as far as I'm aware they haven't appeared on the show itself.

The Playmates stuff is has been getting released before the characters appear on the show. Bebop & Rocksteady have not been introduced yet.

Captain Paco Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 (edited) I am a little upset with my local TRU. I called on Friday and asked if they had these mates. I was told "No". I called today and asked and was told they were fully stocked. It took me fifteen minutes to get across town to find them fully stocked with the exception of the one package I was after. They had all the packages except the Mutagen Leo. The peg was full and from what I noticed there were three of each package except only two regular Leo. Which means that the only one sold was the variant an that fifteen minute window. The store said they could tell they would be getting more in but not sure when that would be. I am getting a Mutagen Mikey from e-Bay but can't seen to find a Mutagen Leo on e-Bay at a price I am willing to pay. I hope to get my case from Luke very soon, because he has shipped it to me but their is an issue with the tracking of the package. I got a Krang from Luke so I will have a whole set if I can get a Mutagen Leo. Okay, I just got a package delivered to me containing my Turtles from Luke's Toy Store. So here is the order I opened them which is also the front to the back of the box as it was delivered to me. Mutagen Raphael Leonardo Leonardo Donatello Donatello Footbot Footbot Footbot Michelangelo Michelangelo Raphael Raphael Shredder Shredder April April Foot Soldier Foot Soldier All of them had all their accessories and stands.

Captain Paco Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 (edited) MisterMiracle, I got a Mutagen Raphael in my case from Luke's Toy Store so all I need is Mutagen Leo to have a full set of Turtles (not counting the two from the Conventions). I edited my post to reflect the case that got delivered just after I submitted my last post. If you don't collect the variant mutagen figures you can technically get two full sets of eight in a case from Luke's Toy Store. I like that because I am going to store a set away and then put a set up on display in my office.

MisterMiracle Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 Ahh, ok. I'm leaning towards doing the same thing. I went to a comic shop last night trying to feel for a Raph but it's too damn awkward because these things are right next to the cash register. I could at least take my time at K-Mart and not have to worry about people judging, haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twisted Two-Face Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 Yea, my LEGO bags like to be wined-and-dined first. Atmosphere. Try taking them to the Capital Grille. I just want to point out that was my first post in this thread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
