    Anybody else see these things? I came across some of them at Meijer, and picked up Splinter, April, and a Foot Soldier. Not sure if I like this aestetic better than what they've been using, but on the plus side, the weapons aren't all flimsy as hell. Apparently this new movie is all CGI or something ....

    I haven't seen the toys yet, but I'm excited as heck for that movie.

    I got the TMNT toys that came out a few years ago but I will get one each of the movie turtles because they have articulations, something that's sorely lacking in the previous turtle toys.

    The movie looks like it will be good but the Turtle look so... skinny.

    Those are pretty cool. I used to have a ton of those. And all the weird offshoots that came in the "ooze years"

    One of my faves was the Gator (who I can't place his name, but I'm too lazy to look up).

    They actually look pretty decent. I bought just the turtles and shredder from the last line only because it was the first one to come since the originals, and they were decent. I may get these too....of course I would need to display all 4 turtles from all 3 lines together.....of course I would need more space to do this...

    Oh man, you're right! They do look good but there doesn't seems to be a Shredder in the line. What gives?

    THANKS!! The toys look cool but, the movie looks horrible. The movies that came out in the early 90's look more interesting.

    I thought this new movie was going to be a combination of live action/CGI.

    I just picked up Raphael, Leo, and Splinter. The level of detail on these guys, especially Splinter, is unreal compared to previous incarnations. Also the turtles have very nice articulation. These are definitely the best TMNT figures released thus far. Also Shredder is coming up in the line:

    I am going to get all 4 Turtles from the movie line then be done with it. I got the turtles from a line several years ago and after opening them up I was sorely disappointed in their lack of articulation. The new ones have that and looks better so I am definitely getting them.

    Dude, I love the Turtle Van! (if that's the van to which you are referring) It isn't the same as the, uh, "G1" Turtle Van :D  , but it is certainly not the techno shrapnel futuristic non-van anime stuff that I was afraid it might turn out to be.

    And, the figs don't look bad either. I absolutely can not wait for this movie to come out. You should check out the trailer, if you haven't already.

    I really don't like the look of the Turtles. I got Michaelangelo from the first wave of the last line because I had so many of the originals as a kid. These just look...odd.
