    My poor wallet.
    Soundwave superior. All others inferior!

    Cool stuff, woulda preferred the clear white eyes and ripped muscles as per the original toys, these guys are so very cartoony which doesn't quite pull off the badassery factor.

    I really like how they've emulated all the individual facial expressions ala the original toys

    Link is dead so I cannot see the pain this may cause my wallet, but they are some very nice figures that would look very nice on my shelves...

    Wonder if they are only doing these four, or if a more cartoon accurate splinter and Shredder could be on their way too.

    Toyark has pics of the classics plus the 2012 line

    I kick myself from having missed those Mirage comic Turtles a few years back..
    Not sure what you're willing to pay but they can be had for around 30 bucks each off ebay now.
    At some point they dropped down in price cause i remember them being pricey/rare for a good while too.
    I got mine from user cool1199 with no hassles.

    Thanks Kurdt, the images of the new 2012 line look very different, hopefully the cartoon will be of a similar quality to the 2003 series (lets pretend that Fast Forward didn't happen). Easy line of figures for me to skip.

    wonder what the price of these bad boys will be...

    Fast Foward was alright. Speaking of turtles, does anyone know what the turtles were that flipped, because I have Leo and Raph versions. IMHO, these guys look alright. Not too shabby

    You mean what they were based on?
    Wasn't the comix look?
    Oops I stand corrected.
    There are 2 versions of them.

    The 2012 line looks horrible.

    I like both lines. Classics ftw though.

    I'm really looking forward to the new series!!

    Bah too cartoony for me, very good if you really liked the cartoon though. The toon to me it was just a fad. they should come with accessories like barrels and manhole covers though, using actual edged weapons in the 80's turtle cartoon was a big nono after all.

    As for these 2012 turtles, don't mind the pupil less ones as they seem to hark back to the comics with thick set legs and round faces, not really a Turtle fan anymore though.
