    I don’t know why, but this set is tempting me more than the previous ones. Of course if in buy one I’ll need them all…

    But the first with no skirt.

    Well, the April headsculpt here is…. Fine I guess.

    Still, didn’t expect this to be the layout, and since the last set is with Raph I’m almost certain we’re getting Tommy with him.

    I don't have any of the Lightning collection figures...how do they compare to ML figures, generally?

    One new mold makes four figures, then all you need is a few new heads and maybe one slightly remolded green ranger body and they have people for > 150 bucks. I'm pretty sure that's why they did it.

    Huh, honestly I think Hasbro did a better job on April's head sculpt than Neca or S7. At the very least it matches the source material (comic book) better than the other two match their's.

    Shredder is listed as a single release by himself... so we're really not sure who it's going to be packed with Raph. Though the current theory is Tommy in his Foot disguise. No really. It makes sense if you read the story.

    I had honestly bowed out of Lightning Collection after the bs they pulled with the Psychos. Doing TMNT crossovers might be the only thing that would get me to buy back into this line haha

    No, they're holes, just like the holes used to peg the sub and bulldozer into the dump truck bed, and they're right on the bottom of the feet in Daitanken mode. (not Super or Ultimate Daibouken mode)

    So where does this leave Raphael?! I thought he and Mikey would be packed together and April would go with Shredder!

    Just gonna throw this out there. If the 3rd tmnt 2 pack is raph and Tommy as a foot ninja, I'll buy a few Tommy's off people that don't want them (unless there's a single pack foot ninja leaked/listed).

    Not at the moment. Technically we aren't even sure it'll be Foot Tommy with Raph but it makes the most sense. Be cool if they branched into other TMNT characters from the crossover though sense no one else is doing figures of the IDW designs.

    Yea, I recently just got into reading the idw series and I'm loving it. Is the power rangers crossover and batman crossovers considered canon?

    I don't believe they are. They use the IDW designs but are in their own unique continuities. That's certainly true for the TMNT crossover.

    Same place they usually put Raph... with Casey Jones.
    I'm speculating it'll be:
    Red Ranger Raph (surprise, surprise) and Green Ranger Casey Jones (with dagger and sword and shield and probably other stuff for his bag of wea....sports equipment).
    I'm wondering if the gold breastplate/shield will be regular or if they'll be creative and make them like hockey or football pads.

    Foot soldiers should be puddies with and without zed breastplate/shield
    Shredder mixed with Lord Zedd (ooohhh nice)
    Rocksteady will probably look better as Goldar than Beebop would.
    Karai Scorpina?

    Shredder was the green Ranger in the comic


    Would anyone else be into the civilian/ninja designs for the human rangers from the crossover comic?
