youbastards Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 Announced at Toy Fair 2014, but no pix as of yet. There is a small glimpse of a character in the very lower left, but I'm not familiar enough with the new show to tell who it is... Quote
MisterMiracle Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 This might be the most excited I've ever been about a new Minimate license! Quote
cidman911 Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 YEESSSSS !!!! Can't wait to see what they have planned. I imagine it's the 4 Turtles, Shredder, Splinter, Karai & Krang robot for the first wave. Quote
fwoosheyman Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 Announced at Toy Fair 2014, but no pix as of yet. There is a small glimpse of a character in the very lower left, but I'm not familiar enough with the new show to tell who it is... It's the Foot Bot. Robotic Foot Solider. Hopefully they can switch between normal foot and foot bots. Quote
MisterPL Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 Oh boy. I've never been a fan of the cartoons, just the comics and [most] movies. It seems most fans were initiated by the cartoons so this might be a Real Ghostbusters-style pass for me or another gotta-have-'em-all line for me. Hopefully there's something for everyone. Quote
ApexPredator Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 One of my most anticipated waves! can't wait Quote
TENIME_art Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 It has its grating moments, but I really dig the new cartoon, and have gotten all of the figures so far (I even have armies of Foot & M.O.U.S.E.R.s). I'm excited! Quote
Josh2382 Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 This is going to be incredible. This is definitely the most I've been excited for a new license. I haven't seen the new show...but I can't complain about this. Quote
hellpop Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 I thought I read that they didn't have anything to show, just had a card announcing them. Quote
Ninja Mate Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 need pics. this is going to be awesome. Quote
DaveOMac Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 This could one day be bigger than Marvel Minimates. I want to go on record now demanding a Mighty Mutanimals box set. I'm willing to wait up to 5 years for this to happen, but not a day longer! Quote
WookieFodder Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 Super Shredder that was made for me. I want Bebop and Rocksteady, also Alt Turtles costumes is endless. Oh and a sexy April O'Neil. Quote
TENIME_art Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 I want to go on record now demanding a Mighty Mutanimals box set. I'm willing to wait up to 5 years for this to happen, but not a day longer! I LOVED that comic. I actually read more issues of that than TMNT. I really hope this does lead to them doing the classic cartoon. Heck, do 'em all, I'll buy 'em all. Classic comics (they could do a con-exclusive B&W box), classic cartoon, live action movies, CG movie, 2002 cartoon, the new movie. I will buy them all. 2014-01-15 16.58.02.jpgThat's awesome. Quote
gambitron Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 (edited) This rocks! My kids and I love watching tmnt every week and we often pop in the DVDs to watch the originals! My largest toy collection as a child was tmnt so hopefully we get some classic stuff too Edited February 17, 2014 by gambitron Quote
luke314pi Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 I loved the original cartoon as a kid. I haven't gotten to see any episodes of the new one yet, but I will definitely be picking up the 'mates. Quote
Wes Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 So, this upcoming line is based on the Nickelodeon new series, not the classic one? Sorry if that's already been answered somewhere. I'm a little disappointed if so, but maybe it will open the door to Classics as well. Quote
Lobsterman Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 I'm curious how these will be constructed... will they just be standard mate limbs and a turtleshell chest cap, or will they have slightly bulked-up, "anime-style" hands and feet? I'm excited for these! They should be a fun license. Quote
ImABarRoomHero Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 Omgomgomgimfingifnhsgagsywnahsbsh.... Dead. I'm so pumped I wake up little kid style on the weekends for my cereal and turtles all thanks to this newest rendition. It's amazing and I'm so pumped for mates for it! Quote
King Kobra Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 (edited) While I'm ecstatic for this line, I wish it was the Eastman and laird version, or even the IDW version, I hope that they could make vehicles such as the shellraiser. Edited February 17, 2014 by King Kobra Quote
cdubya Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 While I love the new show (actually more than the original), I think classic sets (ala Thundercats) are more geared to 'mates. That and the old-school "shell-raiser" just screams Mini-vehicle! Oh well, I'm in! Quote
Shogi Posted February 18, 2014 Posted February 18, 2014 (edited) I'm not sure they had anything shown at Toyfair. I saw pictures of Plants vs Zombies (that I believe were above the TMNT display) and in a few pictures it looks like you can see the basic 6" TMNT figures. If that's the case, I assume they just had them to show off the design the minimates would be emulating Nevermind, looking at other pictures, I think I was seeing the bust banks, not 6" playmates Turtles I'm excited for this line and will probably be buying every single figure Edited February 18, 2014 by Shogi Quote
Donny B Posted February 18, 2014 Posted February 18, 2014 YESSSSS YESSSSSSS YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSI had always kept myself from hoping DST was ever going to make TMNT mates, for fear of being perpetually disappointed every year that they weren't announced.But this makes me so happy! Life could leave a massive flaming turd on my head and I wouldn't mind so much, because I'm getting TMNT minimates can you tell I'm excited? Quote
