I managed to pick my set up about a month ago. For Mikey, I went ahead and picked up his 2-pack, as I preferred that version's scowling grimace to the standard figure's Cheshire grin. I wanted all four of the brothers to look as if they were ready to leap into a serious life-or-death battle, each ready to administer some all-out ass-kicking. For that, I needed Mikey to look as if even he was serious and pissed, hence the two-pack version.
Meanwhile, the other figure, General Serpiente, has already found her place in a box of junk toys and spare parts.
IMO, these are easily the best action figure versions of the Turtles to date. It's a shame that the other characters don't feature the number of POA's as the Turtles themselves. If they did, I'd be buying many of them as well. As it stands, however, the other figures look only a notch above crappy Happy Meal toys, so it'll be "Turtles only" for me.

Well, they're completely gone from every store in the area.
Nothing but Casey Jones and Foot Soldiers around here.

I wanted to pick these up, but I had a hard time allowing myself to purchase them because of one thing I felt was missing - more articulation. I know it's not expected of Playmates, but with these guys being ninjas, I felt that maybe a bit more articulation in the legs, specifically the ankles and wrists would have made me purchase them.
Who knows, maybe another company will get the license to make them and we'll see what a fully articulated ninja turtle can do.
Nice paint mods by the way! ;D

Great work on those!
Rumor, and I heavily stress rumor, is the possibility of a TMNT on Indie Legends...

The new Marvel Toys (Toy biz) action figure line with characters from inpedendant comics books. I think the real name is Legendary Heroes. Not 100% sure though.

Yep, that's the line I meant. There are a lot of cool figures in that line. TMNT would fit in nicely

Madman is in that lineup. I'm getting it.
On the TMNT Topic, I found Donatello at Target on Saturday, i'm gonna try and go back some day this week to see if there's any more.
I'm a sucker for Ninjas, so I'll probably be getting a Foot Soldier. I don't know about Casey Jones and April O' Neil, though.

"Da mods" are already done. You even commented on them in another thread.
