HUGE Golaith? TMNT movie figures?

[thundera]

Hello all. Damn, I could discuss various action figure lines all DAY, but who has the time, eh?

Anyway....

Anyone SEEN this (generic?) HUGE Goliath figure at WallyMart? My girl said she saw him in the city, but didnt know if I'd want him. I have seen him on E-Bay and she confirmed him to be the one in question. This guy has (what LOOKS like..) rotoscope-type joints..like the big Hulk from the movie a few years back, and those huge wrestlers....you know the ones. Anyhow, he comes in a huge window box and would make the IDEAL barbarian for my display, with a bit of modifying and a nice HUGE club...any maybe a fur loin cloth and boots...lol. She said he was $15.99 retail, and under some generic-o name "Spiritual Warriors" or something like that. I couldnt give a FECK less of his Biblical connection, lol, I just want this figure! Anyone?

Oh...as to the TMNT movie blokes...been buyin 'em right and left...to open and play with...errrr...I mean...POSE...yeah...POSE. I just grabbed that 'Sloth Monster' the other day...he could be more poseable, but hes VERY cool nonetheless. Anyone collect these? Anyone need a certain one?

Well, have fun!


Cheers,

JD

Hey welcome to the board! I think I saw the Spiritual warriors line in an issue of ToyFare. I didn't realize they were out already. Too bad they won't be making Lilith from [Adult Swim]'s Bible Fight!

Welcome aboard!

I did buy a couple of the movie TMNT figures. Some I modified to my liking. I'm really looking forward to the Shredder figure that'll be coming out soon.

Thanks eMummy...and sorry, not familiar with that show.

Gray....He's out already mate...bought mine weeks ago. Hes neat as hell thats for sure, and has like a DOZEN accessory bits, (right down to his little claw gauntlets being removeable) but he's a little too emaciated looking for me. I prefer the Shredder from the very LAST series...he's neat. Yeah but this one, hes OK...below the waist he's JUST like the Foot Soldier...that is to say, USELESS "ball joints"..lol. I'll tell you though, making his helmet REMOVEABLE was brilliant..that ups his cool factor. (And his giant halbred is pretty friggin smooth as well) I can have my girl take a pic of my TMNT collection...or anything else for that matter...if anyone likes.

Cheers,

JD

Yeah I really like to see pictures of that Shredder figure you're talking about because I'm not sure we're talking about the same thing. I haven't heard about anyone finding the newer TMNT movie wave with the Shredder in it. Anyway, if you feel like posting pics, I'd love to take a look.

There ya go mate. And yes, it is the Shredder you are referring to...The one and only Movie Shredder. As far as them "not being out yet"...well....hmmmmm... Also I wanted to show the new Sloth Monster...hes cool as all hell...and my Generals as well. Oh, see that arsenal Shredder comes with? Pretty badass, eh?

Enjoy!

That's not shredder. He's just an original character made for the movie.

Come to think of it, I dont even think Shredder was in the movie.

[eMummy]

Wait, that figure, the 3rd link, that's totally shredder. How can he not be him? It's just a figure done in the style of the movie line.

[thundera]

?!?! Of COURSE its Shredder...LOL I have his little booklet giving his BIO, not to mention it says "SHREDDER" emblazoned accross the front of his PACKAGE....lol

Sheeesh....sorry mate...but "thats NOT Shredder"...?!?! lol

..and hey....pssssst....Shredder i s in the film...pay attention during the beginning sequence, eh?

Regards,

JD

Thundera:

Yep, you're right. It is the figure I was talking about. I had no idea it was out already. I guess I'll have to start hunting for it!

thanks much for the cool pics!

Well I feel really stupid right now.
