I'm not a real TMNT fan anymore, but I'm really impressed with the designs and packaging of these toys. A lot better than what Hasbro does with their G1 reissues.

Great, now all it needs are opening doors, a dashboard and steering wheel, and some internal detail and it might actualy be able to compete with Star Wars and GI Joe vehicles from the 80's. ;)Quote:

Cool - DVDs!
I saw the reissue figures at Myer today, which surprised me! And *SHOCK* they were the same price as Toyworld! :eek:
I spotted the reissues at my local TRU today for $19 each. I'm not a TMNT collector, but I am definitely going to pick them up.
I'd forgotten they came out today. Did the back of the packaging indicate if the DVDs have English subtitles for the deaf and hearing impaired?Quote:

The R1 DVDs don't have subtitles but they do have captions. Unfortunately the captions are the type that can't be generated by DVD players. I can get the captions to load on my PC using Power DVD though.Quote:

Pics are from Toy Fair. No info, details or close-ups - only had time to take the 2 photos.
Thanks Griffin - I love those huge cut-outs of the old school Turtles! :eek:
Damn, was hoping that the Mini Mutants line might have been coming to a close...guess not.
(Those little buggers are hard to not buy).
4 turtles plus April, B-Bop, Rocksteady and Splinter now at K-Mart, $18.99. Still pretty expensive, but no way I could pass on Splinter, will wait for sale before getting the rest.
YES!!! :DQuote:

I got the remaining Bebop & Rocksteady from Myer TTP. Splinter & April will have to wait till I've got more cash. K-mart have jacked the price up to $22+
:confused: They scanned at $18.99 for me today!Quote:

Cool! :) That's what I paid for the 4 figures at Myer today - $15 each (They were having a promo: If you spent over $75 in one transaction they took $20 off the total)... I didn't even know about it, so it was a nice surprise! :D
On sale for $14.95 at Myer starting tomorrow
Thanks for the heads-up! ;)Quote:

Hasbro could stand to learn a thing or two from Playmates here... you don't see Raphael with a pink bandana and shortened sais. ;)
