Ugh.

I need Ray Fillet.

I need Rahzar.

I need Mutagen Man.

I need the rock soldiers.

MOAR TMNT PLEASE.

A little sad that Baxter only has one Mouser but I have a couple spare I suppose.

I promise nothing. 

*perishes*

I would prefer a Marvel Now Magik but a Goblin Queen in her crazy black crop top outfit could be used for a lot of customs, as could Darkchylde hoof legs.

@DSTZach

I need you to make a solemn vow. A deep, generational promise.

If you make Thunder Rosa, since she alternates looks, give her two heads, one half facepaint and one full facepaint. I need a 'Day of the Dead' woman head for La Muerta, Thunder Rosa, La Mariposa from Sunset Overdrive, and Lady Deathstrike II. 

*Pleeeeaaaaaase.*

We definitely look at who has not been made, and who has been made semi-recently. Series 86 is based on a 1990s storyline, and has two new characters, plus one who has only been done animated. Series 87 is an 80s storyline, and has I believe two new characters again, plus one in a new outfit that is very different from the one we have. Hopefully people continue to find that ratio worth purchasing.

... are either of them New Warriors? ^-^, You said you wanted to do them and Firestar was been made in her Amazing Spider-Man appearance.

Or X-Men from the 90s with Madelyne Pryor, Nate Grey, and some others? That would be hella dope.

For those who were curious, we just turned in the AEW packaging for approval -- it should be approved fairly quickly, but that means it's still a couple of months away from being in stores. Just FYI. 

You mean for Set 3, not Set 2 which is at Luke's apparently?

Darby Sting, and either Shida or Toni Storm and MJF or Bryan Danielson is then my guess.

Working on a con exclusive set. Four turtles, but a cool set. Not sure what new characters are planned. Movie characters are not available to us, I believe. 

Tokka and Razar were in the cartoons for an episode, surely that counts!

That Scourge is great!!

They actually look bloody marvellous .  

Whilst studying all the accessories ,which are lovely , it occurred to me that it must take absolutely ages for somebody to place all those pieces of tape over them !   It can surely only be done by hand & time is money .

Might I suggest that a single, clear, adhesive ,die-cut sheet be placed over the whole area ? Easier to pack & easier to unpack 

-buttIwasinthepackagingindustrymate

This is a fantastic idea.

Going to guess MJF and Bryan Danielson will be in this set, but the other two are hard to pin down. I would think Darby and Sting, but it's been semi-confirmed that will be the next two pack, right?

Swerve and... Samoa Joe, maybe? Much as I would love Keith Lee, Wardlow, Jack Parry, Luchasaurus, Will Hobbs, Konosuke, the Acclaimed...

I think Swerve, Joe, MJF would be great; so would Bryan, but @DSTZach said he was not on the short list...

Hikaru Shida? Saraya for her namebrand? Toni Storm, with potentially that black and white variant?

For the love of god, if you do Thunder Rosa, include a full 'Day of the Dead' alternate head that she does, sometime, so I can finally make customs of La Muerta and Lady Deathstrike II.

@DSTZach I overheard more TMNT sets being done? Any hints of continuation in the 87 series or another turtleverse?

 

We DESPERATELY need Tokka, Razar, Super Shredder from the movies, and Ray Filet, Rat King, Wilma, and Slash from the og toys and cartoons.

You know.. something about the Mary feels off. I think it's the chest piece. AND THIS IS GOING TO BE THE MOST AWKWARD THING I SAY ON HERE, BUT...

This is not meant to be some kind of pervy thing, they're lines on a toy block with a sticker, basically, but like... maybe I am used to how Minimates always just have breasts being very round, and those feel, IDK, angular? Compared to Elektra there, even?

I hope that makes sense? Maybe it's just a weird conditioning for me.

Series 2 is in the warehouse, should ship January 24.

HELLS. YES.

I can use my bad stand-ins for Hangman, Mox, Cassidy and Cole and make OTHER wrestlers with the parts!!!

Yep! We have it here. 

I'll have to buy some, soon. Sadly, life just got in the way. /As usual./

@luke314pi

Your store has the Technodrome set in stock and ready to ship, yeah?

I'm giddy. YAY.

More sets have been discussed,  yes. No big Krang, since he is in Set 2, but I don't know who else would work as a Vinimate. Cudley?

My votes go Ray Filet, Mondo Gecko, Rat King, Toka, Razar, Minerva, Muck Man, Rex-1! Dunno if you can do Yojimbo, since he has weird rights things going on.

Where did u get those parts?!?!?

What if...

Flint, Jaye, Zartan and then Tomax or Xamot with parts to make the other twin?

And if not doing Serpentor or Shipwreck... hmmm. The below had 'seven' right (Flint, Jaye, Zartan are for sure,if the Twins, that makes five). Bludd had been missed in my first attempt at brainstorming...

As for sets 3-5, Imma still support Flint, Jaye, Zartan, Shipwreck, Spirit, Serpentor, Firefly, Mindbender, Stalker, Zarana, Gung Ho, the Twins and the Dreadnok trio of Buzzer, Torch and Ripper are the big, important ones.

Not quite there, but I may not be helping when I say things like "Firefly hasn't made it in yet..."  

So, is that wrong? Shoot.

Um. 

Flint, Jaye, Gung-Ho, Shipwreck.

Serpentor, Zartan, Mindbender, Firefly?

Zach, you seemed to have enjoyed Mindbender, and he was big in the cartoons back in the day, so if you guys are focusing on arcs, he makes sense for Arise, Serpentor, Arise. And guessing Gung-Ho, but Spirit would also be a good shout out. I think you guys would need to pay extra for Sgt Slaughter, so not adding him to the mix.

But I am 'sure' on Flint, Jaye, Zartan and Serpentor. 

But seriously though... a Serpentor would be dope dope dope dope. Would inspire me to go make a Serpent Society for my Marvel display.

Any talk of vehicles @DSTZach?

If you don't make them, I might have to. LOL I was looking at HISS tanks the other day thinking a Minimated one would be cute.

Sigma Six mini adventure vehicles are perfect size. The hiss tank from them isn't the OG but its stil great

You named seven out of the first 8, but we'll see how it goes.

Hmm. You had said Firefly had not made it in yet...

So...

Flint, Jaye, Zartan, Serpentor, Mindbender, Shipwreck and Gung Ho as the seven I named. And if it's 2 Joes, 2 Cobras, the Major Bludd is then one I missed.
