Re: TMNT Classics?

Per Pixel Dan:

"Attended the #TMNT event! Unfortunately we were unable to photograph, but the new figures we saw look great! Fans will love them!"

Not sure whether he's talking about the figures for the new TMNT cartoon or the TMNT classics.

lol, that guy is always super enthused lol.

Well I'm itching even more now to see what's what with them!

ohhh the end of DCUC at retail, probably wont have too huge an effect on us as we only really see these in comic stores here, guess it means less figures per year though!

I'm guessing we will see the line returning but featuring more DCnU characters / designs which is fine by me!

Loving seeing some new feet for the MU women.
I hated those boxy feet they had.

Not one they intend to articulate. It looks like Dana's going to be a display piece only, not an action figure (which is odd since the other Ghostbuster figures are all well articulated). Even the Taxi Ghost has some articulation.

Apparently they stated at the panel that Dana will feature swap out legs, one set normal & the static legs for the alter. So that's pretty cool.

I'd say the arms will get some movement...or may be swappable too?

Poor Superman! What did that strange man in the yellow tights and black tunic do to him?

Then again, perhaps that is simply Superman's new-new costume in the DC reboot? Wonder Woman has run around in her underpants for years, so perhaps DC feels that Superman should as well?

Jessica Rabbit, DAMMMMMNNNNNNNN!!!!!!!

Yellow tights man also seems to have some assistance in the groinal area......seems oddly square shaped tho

by Sam on Wed Jul 27, 2011 7:57 pm

Mrs Rabbit, Im not sure those are legal.

Thank goodness I wasn't the only one that noticed that. Perhaps a low-slung bum-bag or money-belt for his essentials like talcum powder, Nintendo DSi and iPhone?

And I'm pretty sure Jessica Rabbit is breaking at least two laws. First, she's definitely defying the law of gravity keeping those things so high off the ground and I think even in San Diego she's stretching the generosity of the laws surrounding inciting riots.

Cheers.
