Ninturtle Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 We're getting original cartoon mates! Hopefully there's more a Raphael, Michealangelo , and Rocksteady in this wave too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeyCrypts Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 meh, i'll pick them up as a Turtles fan and I'm in for casey but honestly the original cartoon is bollocks, i'd rather see mates based on the current IDW or Classic Mirage Books Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only wish Mirage got the full wave treatment, but at least there's a mold for Shredders helmet if they want to make more Mirage mates.

Heinous Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 Yeah I'm gonna have a hard time turning these down. I hate the stupid happy faces on the turtles, but I know it's accurate. All of the extended cast is what's gonna be fun about this line Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And there's only seven figures so I doubt this is all the figures in this wave, there's always been at least 4 turtles per wave. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â I think that these will be in two packs, with the Foot Soldier being an army builder. Obviously, that's just conjecture. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heinous Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 Zach said on Instagram that wave two will have rocksteady, Krang and more foot. So we can assume Mikey and Raph are in wave two Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SCW Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 YES! YES! YES! I am SOOOOO all over these. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onyx_6 Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 Hopefully the follow up wave would be: Raphael and Splinter Mikey and Rocksteady Foot with Kraang with robot legs and Kraang in humanoid form I would consider that a complete roster of the cartoon, without needing repeat turtles to get characters of the week.

Mysterious Stranger Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 Pretty certain this is Wave 6 and the second wave mentioned is 7. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DSTZach Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 (edited) Series 6 and 7 will be Retro Series 1 and 2. No more Nick TMNT. They will be in two-packs, paired as shown, with Foot army-builder. This is the full Series 1. Series 2 will have the other two Turtles, humanoid Krang, Rocksteady, Splinter, Fly Baxter, and more Foot. All the Turtles come with happy and angry heads. These will only be at comic shops. Not at TRU. No more Turtles at TRU.   Edited February 19, 2017 by DSTZach Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ninturtle Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 That's really disappointing, there was still so many great Nick characters to do. I'm bummed that we never got a Tiger Claw, Dog Pound, Rahzar, Xever, Fish Face, Stockman Fly and Leather Head. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kostisfire Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 LCS TMNT with no TRU Packs to hunt down and a complete cast? Boy oh boy, am I a happy boy! Seriously, that's what I was waiting for. I never bought the BB stuff, so this time I actually have a chance to get them. I wonder if you'll ever do the Mirage or current IDW versions, since these are the ones I'm mostly interested in.

Man, while I'm SUPER excited about these retro Turtles...I'm a little bummed out about no more Nick TMNT and no more TMNT at TRU. Can we pleassssse get some spinning nun-chucks for Mikey?

SCW Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 Yeah this is a great announcement served with a side of punch in the gut. Nick TMNT is one of the best lines you guys got. And TRU no longer on board? That seems... Odd. But at least we'll get a few cool waves of retro TMNT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heinous Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 Yeah I'm down for all of the new figures, sounds like getting them all will give us 4 foot soldiers. Curious to see how they do shredder, wasn't a fan of the nick splinter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattallica Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 "No more Nick TMNT"   I bet this has something to do with Mattel acquiring Megabloks and their deal with Nick  I guess we'll never get that trans purple Donnie now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedTiger95 Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 Nick TMNT will sadly be incomplete, the remainder of this season and next seasons have some really cool designs and ideas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
