I can't wait for these

>>11708719
Lazy ass OP, didn't update any info. Retard.
>>
>>11708719
So, what do you lads expect from NYTF?

I hope we get confirmation from Lego that they're doing a full TMNT theme
>>
>>11708743
This is the only set we know they are releasing this year right now.
>>
Apparently the new leadership at Paramount led by Ellison thinks Seth Rogen ruined the TMNT IP and are planning to fix it.
>>
>>11708748
Sounds too good to be true. Source?
>>
>>11708748
Ellison is an orange devotee. He's going to be making things even worse to line his pockets.
>>
>>11708751
I read it on r#ddit in a thread where they said they will boycott Mattel TMNT

Lol

They added the O-Ring info under super7, what else is there to update?
>>
>>11708761
Now I'm angry and my day is ruined
>>
>>11708767
Maybe pull your head out of your ass and pay attention to things going on around you.
>>
I'm curious if Playmates will show anything new at toy fair or its fucking over

Also, is there a possibility Mattel could do Playmates style classic figures? Or Playmates owns those designs?
>>
>>11708761
I wonder what she would have complained about on set this time?
>>
>>11708775
Nothing? She knew this was going to be for adults only
>>
>>11708775
You're such an obsessed weirdo. Women bother you that much apparently, huh?
>>
>>11708785
It's well known how difficult she was on the set of the original movie. You wouldn't be saying that men bother me if I pointed out that Christian Bale is known to be difficult on set.
But I hope she reads this, bro. Maybe she will pat you on the head and give you a cookie for being such a powerful feminist ally and white knighting for her on 4channel.
>>
>>11708829
Struck a nerve, huh?
>>
>>11708829
I always preferred Paige Turco anyways, speaking of… when are we getting her April, NECA?
>>
>>11708720
These are kinda cool. I like Donnatello's head sculpt.
>>
>>11708719
So, do we know what's gonna happen with McFarlane? Will they keep making figures or nah? I was interested in collecting them but if they will stop soon there's no point.
>>
>>11708774
They have a number of new things they haven't shown us officially. There's at least one more wave of the Godzilla crossover. Then there's an articulated vintage style Bebop and Rocksteady that leaked ages back, and an entire G.I. Joe crossover that leaked, but hasn't been revealed just yet. Playmates also has the license at least until the end of this year. It's unlikely that Mattel has anything ready as quickly as January 1st 2027 either. So there can still be Playmates theoretically released and on pegs for the beginning of 2027, just nothing after.

This was a pitch to Hasbro, right? What if this pitch was more so Hasbro could give the Joe license to Playmates like they did with Power Rangers? Like we all know Turtles of Grayskull was Mattel's pitch for the license. It's not like Hasbro does anything with the Joe IP.
>>
>>11708885
>>
>>11708885
No, a few of those are full production. Playmates admitted they were real and said they weren't allowed to talk about them yet. Hasbro might want to reveal them.
>>
>>11708885
>>11708887
Woah, what the hell? These look fucking awesome!
>>
>>11708897
That's super cool if we are getting them, sounds like Playmates might end it with a BANG after all.
>>
>>11708748
There's alot of weird shit going on with TMNT now. They announced a preschool show for crying outloud. I dont think paramount understands the IP.
>>
>>11708925
They aren't coming out. All of that was before they found out they were losing the license.
>>
>>11708942
Source?
>>
>>11708719
I love this art
>>
>>11708970
My ass.
>>
>>11709038
You should never reproduce then
>>
>>11708925
The date in the corner either implies they're slated for April or 4th quarter, implying late 2026. I think April is most likely because Playmates hasn't announced really much for 2026.
>>
>>11709097
That WAS the plan. Not so anymore.
>>
I hope more companies do the O-Ring route. I much prefer that to 3.75 Kenner styled figures. The Hasbro O-Ring Ghostbusters they did were awesome and these Super7 turtles will look perfect beside them.
>>
>>11709118
They're not going to just not produce figures for 2026.
>>
>>11709134
I hate the kenner style, but there are a few lines I liked with Reaction. I like the Godzilla line, which works for 5 poa, and a handful of the TMNT reactions looked cool, but I agree tge o-ring figs are the way to go. They currently have:

G.I. Joe
Micronauts
Visionaries
TMNT
Universal Monsters
Back to the Future
Thundercats(not coming until 2027 most likely)
Invincible (just announced they have the license, unclear if o-ring yet)

They also discussed maybe redoing properties they already did, and discussed Big Trouble in Little China and They Live as ones they'd love to re-hit as O-ring.
>>
>>11709104
Too bad.
Hope you're ready for the Street Sharks to be shoehorned into TMNT Origins a la Sun Man
>>
>>11709118
Why would they cancel figures that they have apparently made the tooling for and are still allowed to sell to retailers for another 13 months?
>>
>>11709104
Why? I wanted Playmates to lose the license a decade ago, imagine if Mattel made the 2012 series toy line...
>>
>>11709248
Ikr, it makes no sense, its like toyposters here hate logic(?)

I will never understand it
>>
>>11708941
I mean
it would not be a problem if TMNT had a "Rescue Bots" equivalent, to air for that demo, while another gets a mature, BTAS-esque TMNT show
maybe get everyone who worked on Young Justice who is willing to say Greg Weisman is a nutjob
>>
>>11708761
I will never, as long as I live, understand the positivity toward Last Ronin
it's barely a ninja turtles story. there is ONE turtle. Unless most of it is flashbacks, I am failing to see how it could be any damn good.
>>11708829
it's so weird how brainwashed women were even back then. though henson, despite being so worldly himself, also had an issue with violence. like why? violence is fun.
>>11708845
I used to prefer her but now i'm quite torn.

>Playmates IS REISSUING THE TURTLE TANK!!!
MSmithTMNT, the same guy who leaked the G.I. Joe crossover is on Instagram right now claiming that Playmates is reissuing the Turtle Tank.
>>
>>11709349
Not bad, had this as a kid and it was fun, but if we're doing Mutant Military re-releases my vote is for the Bubble Bomber. I wonder if recreating the smoke buble mechanism for that is even possible these days.
>>
>>11709349
Meh.

That's not very interesting

>>11708720
Pixel Dan's excited about the O-ring Turtles.
>>
>>11709387
Most people are, it’s a cool ass idea.
>>
>>11709395
No it's not. People that buy O-Ring shit need to be shot into the sun. It's crap.
>>
so why are they called o-ring again, i missed that
>>
>>11709404
Vintage GI Joe figures used a rubber o-ring to assemble the legs to the body. It's become a de facto-term to describe that style of figure assembly.
>>
>>11709404
The rubber band in the waist like vintage GI Joes is called an O-ring.
>>

Anon, show us on the doll where the Street Sharks touched you.
>>
>>11709410
wh
why the fuck would they bring that back?
>>
>>11709445
Nostalgia, apparently. Or maybe they're cheaper to make.
>>
>>11709445
Right? It's hot garbage. GI Joe fags are the worst about it, but it's one of the shittiest things you could want.
>>
>>11709446
i dont know anyone who misses when action figures fell apart from the rubber perishing..
>>
>>11709445
It's the new nostalgia trend, the Kenner style figures are falling off so this is where companies are heading. Then in another ten years we'll get Toy Biz style action figures of every property under the sun.
>>
What is it about this IP that makes people so angry and hurling insults at each other?
>>
>>11709494

Eh, at least we're not the Technodrome forums.
>>
>>11709494
it's just one or two severe autists. the rest of us are fine.

pessimism about TMNT is called having a functional brain.
>>

But I'm not pessim--oh, right. The autism.
>>
>>11709524
it's okay to have future hope though, now that ding-dong-the-playmates-exclusivity-deal-is-dead. even if mattel is pretty retarded, hopefully they leave everyone else alone. neca, super7, all of them can go back to their status quo. Everybody can have what they like. Now if we only had a little money.

I found Leo and Mike in the wild but can't find the other two to save my life.

Recently found a lot online that included Donnie but didn't realize till got them in person that they are a slightly different version. The ones I found in the wild have scar details and you can't see the pins in the shoulders. Which one is original and which is reissue?


Any idea where I can find these for a decent price ?
(I like the scar version)

Au Contraire, Mon Frere! I've watched this dork for years since he's usually the first to post footage from toy fair, sdcc, etc. He's a slobbering shill. And when it comes to NECA and Super7, he FAILS as a reporter, asks virtually NOTHING about anything revealed and just want to focus solely on TURDLES!!!
>Here we have THIS cool new line or THIS new line or THIS
>MUH TURDLESSSSS!!!!!!
He's a fucking embarrassment and a complete shill.

Also: GI Joe x TMNT: meh. Looks great, but I don't need them and probably don't want to devote space to them. TMNT x Godzilla though, I want more of those instead.
>>
>>11710039

I need that Slash. Also, considering how much I loathe the Dreadnoks, that Bebop and Rocksteady look good. Like, even if you drop the GI Joe crossover aspect they'd still look good.

I'm a bit conflicted, will probably just wait for a discount sale. I'm not exactly dying to mix these in with my GI Joes as I was with Ghostbusters and BTTF.
>Need 1/18 Turtle Van
I'd wager you could mock up one with the Playmates rerelease and just print up smaller chairs, since the original is a bit underscaled already. The rerelease TerrorDrome already works better with 3.75.
>>
>>11710063
It would have been tricky to make Bebop and Rocksteady straight since there are so few hetero characters in GI Joe.

Ha, no. Hasbro will never give up Joe.

Or give up pushing it in the vain belief they can make it as big as it was in the 80s.
>>
>>11710089
Just now realizing you could theoretically recreate the first Monster Island Buddies episode with the Turtles and April.
https://youtu.be/42XAIuWrvD8?si=Ak4l8swllK_GI2kW

I hope Playmates has more to offer than GiJoe and some reissues. I wouldn't mind one last re-release of the vintage line since it'll be the last time we'll ever have them. Hell they could do translucent, glow in the dark, chrome who the fuck cares.
>>
>>11710344
What do you mean? Hasbro will just license it to Playmates like they do with Power Rangers. They already gave Joes to Super7 so why not? Playmates could make a good kids line while Hasbro keeps making Classified for collectors.
>>
>>11710356
Kids don't care about Joe. Joe is for fags.
>>
>>11710356

Hasbro is really stubborn about Joe. They love how its "the first action figure" and will go out of their way to push the line so its as huge as it was in the 80s. They hope.

if I may play devil's advocate,
perhaps anon prefers the more realistic proportions that allow this to be more of a cosplay, and less of 'we are actually also he-man figures now'
Like, these don't have the 'anatomy' as it were of a GI Joe toy, with the rubber bands and shit

Are there any guides on how Playmate did the internal structure of their 80s figures?
I want to print some bootlegs, but I don’t know how the internal frame was assembled before having the outer shell attached.
>>
>>11710758
i don't think they had a frame. i'm sure at least one of mine broke open at some point and it was really just head and arms peg into two-piece torso.
like, look inside a Storage Shell turtle, that's basically it.
>>11710828
at 45 degree angles, don't forget.
>>
>>11708720
This is what the ReAction figures should’ve been from the beginning, not those shitty, static 5POA figures they’ve been making for the past 10+ years
>>
>>11710758
The only part that had an internal frame was the hips, which was in a "Y" shape with ball pegs on he lower ends and the upper end (if I'm remembering right" had a ring that a peg slotted through from the front half of the torso to the back.
The rest of the articulation was done with simple swivels.
>>
>>11710880
i never consciously noticed the legs were the only ball joints. i guess that helps with making them stand despite minute changes in pose or weapons
>>
>>11710880
>which was in a "Y" shape
*In an inverted "Y" shape.

>all this negativity
Am I the only one who's genuinely excited for these? My biggest problem is probably that the distribution will be awful adding to the fact Playmates is losing the license by the end of the year.

And yes, as an anon said, these look COOLER than Turtles of Grayskull.
>>
>>11710039
The shitty part about this is that I would have loved a classic Slash with the Remastered series articulation but this is likely the closest we'll get now.
>>
>>11711004
I think these look great for what they are, and people who are into this would be ecstatic
I'm not one of those people, but I'm happy for you. just like I'm sure you'd be happy for me if I got movie 2 splinter, april, maybe movie 3 april, and more movie-styled versions of other TMNT characters except... yknow, designed well.

>>11710704
>'we are actually also he-man figures now'

That was the whole appeal, what would the TMNT look like as MotU guys. What would MotU guys look like as TMNT cast, it's what people loved about it: It's Skeletor TrapJaw and Merman as TMNT style designs, it's the Turtles and April as MotU designs. Same happen with Power Rangers cross over where the Power Rangers were mutated and the Turtles were Rangered. Even the Batman cross over understood this. But this? It's just TMNTs as TMNTs even the Joe cosplay is all but lost of on all of them but Shredder and Krang and they are just out right cosplaying. Worse still they have nothing people would want on the other side of this like Mutated Joes and Cobra figures. Again Turtles of Greyskull understood this so you got mutants of Ram man, He-man, Merman, etc.

>>11711004
The say is "First in, best dressed" if these cross over figures rolled out in say 2018 they be hailed as something good or original but this is the 18th TMNT cross over in the last six years, each one demands more originality to it beyond "look it's your two brands mixed together". Even the Naruto one put in more effort. So when you are rolling out A GIJoe Mikey that just looks like a generic sailor in an era where they are getting official gear and looks in other crossovers it just makes the fandoms uninterested to upset with the offerings.

It's clear why Playmates couldn't hold onto the brand.

Why do you make shit up like this? Mattel was one of the only two companies that logically could afford the license. Hasbro or Mattel. And Mattel always seemed more likely because of how much they put into ToG and weren't burdened by Disney and other shit like Hasbro was. It was a coin toss regardless.

Use your fucking brain. The image was a fake, remember the retards claiming the thread was downed because of it? And then suddenly...it wasn't... Because he made it. It's a fake image. Not a single, fucking, person outside of this board has said anything about the image. It's the internet. If there was a leak...and there are always leaks...it would've been posted all over Twitter. Even if it got taken down, people would have been talking about it over and over and over.

Speculation on how Mattel will handle the license? From the press release the 2027 and 2028 movie will be the main focus of those years, but will Mattel do other Turtles media too? Or something more generic?
>>
>>11711132
Kids line around $10-$15 each like these new DC figures Mattel makes. I suppose if they start releasing new toys by april 2027 they will be generic 1987 figures. Does TMNT have generic evergreen designs for merch? Maybe we will see the "World of TMNT" branding on the toys Mattel will make with a small writing on each card saying Raph from "TMNT 2003" or so.

They aren't for me, but I haven't hated on them. I don't think they look cooler than ToG, but to each their own. I do like the bad guys and might get CC Shredder and Slash. I might get Leo to fight them, but I hate Donnie and Mikey so I have no plans to get the whole team.

damn so Playmates decides to do some of their best work only for Viacom to come and tell them they're losing the license (sculpting of all of these started before they got the bad news)
>>
>>11711563
I thought they were losing the license because they weren't willing to pay the 200% price increase Viacom did on tmnt, spongebob and avatar licenses. So Mattel got it because they needed it (Barbie isn't doing as well as it did according to Bloomberg so thats a reason why they got Turtles) so they were willing to pay.

did they do a remake of pizzaface or are you being cheeky and talking about how it was okay with Playmates did it
because the original Pizzaface was not like, mutated genetically with bread and sauce and cheese. that makes no fucking sense. he was just a mutated human with his flesh melting off, who WAS a pizza chef, and used a pizza cutter and a pizza box as prosthetic limbs. that's still stupid, but it's FUN stupid.

Chinese stuff is generally very brittle. Pretty much every line that is talked about here on /toy/ that comes from China has people frequently talking about shit breaking or coming off.

>>11712356
Given that this is meant for shareholders, I think they're going to try to save face in how to word it. "The license agreement will not be renewed" sounds better than "we didn't want to pay their fee" or "we did something to anger them" or whatever other theories are going around. It might even just be that Mattel made them a better offer.
>>
>>11712399
i still think super shredder was just a goon he mutated ahead of time to fake his own death, but okay you have a point. it was pretty stupid back then too sometimes.
what was that one mutagen that like, glued 3 cows together?
>>
>>11712400
Lying to shareholders is securities fraud. They aren't going to do that to save face.
>>
>>11712414
They're not lying, they're just not specifying what went wrong. The statement just says they were in negotiations since October 2025 and were then informed that the license wouldn't be renewed. It doesn't provide any more details beyond that, so just going by the statement we have no idea what actually happened.
>>
>>11712400
>>11712414
>"The license agreement will not be renewed" sounds better than "we didn't want to pay their fee"
This literally means the same thing. It's not being renewed because they can't pay.

They couldn't negotiate a lower price.
Mattel outbid them.
Thus, Playmates being formally notified by the Licensor that the License Agreement will not be renewed upon expiry on 31 December 2026.

Or it could be a hundred million other reasons, but it likely has to do with the fact that Paramount/Viacom got sold out and the new parent company wants to get as much cash back by raising prices on everything. Thus, Mattel taking advantage of having more money than every toy company (that isn't Bandai, Hasbro and LEGO) put together.
>>
>>11712412
>what was that one mutagen that like, glued 3 cows together?
That was when a bunch of train tankers carrying chemicals that could be used to make mutagen derailed because Shredder was trying to hijack the train but Bebop and Rocksteady screwed up. They mixed together, making an imperfect mutagen and a bunch of cows in a nearby cattle terrain fused and mutated into one giant cow monster. It's one of my favorite episodes for how stupid it is.
>>
>>11712414
You severely doubt what a desperate dying company will do.
>>
>>11712456
Don't get me wrong, Playmates losing the license has put them in a shitty position. But they aren't even close to dying. They made an estimated HK$15 million loss in 2025, but their reported profit in 2024 and 2023 was HK$132 million and HK$636.7 million respectively. One bad year is nothing. They managed to weather the storm when Turtles was a completely dead franchise.
Hasbro has been making billion dollar losses for years now. When Playmates are reporting losses that are the equivalent to their previous years profits, for multiple years in a row, then you can start claiming they are dying.

joytoy and storm collectibles have been my best experiences from china
>>
>>11712618
There's been some speculation for years now that playmates themselves were producing the TMNT 2012 bootlegs and thusly ruined the original moulds. So this latest batch of reissues looks really off compared to the first releases as a result. If you compare them side by side not only are the legs different but the heads are upscaled too. As for why Raph looks off it might be down to reusing Donnie's legs on his torso.

The OG releases of the 2012 turts were all respectively original moulds. Mikey was the most squat, Leo was the average height turtle, Raph was a bit shorter than him but still taller than Mike, and Donnie was two heads taller than the other three. These new releases look to be the same height and share the same limbs while using the distinct torsos and replica heads.
