I was dubious, but this thing is awesome. And it's probably the best figure of Iran's android body apart from that one third party one.

And the turtles are seriously awesome little figures. Hopefully they do Mikey and Donnie in these more muted colors unlike the single figure sets.

>>5391515
Except 2012 turtles are the best version yet. That's coming from someone who grew up with the original toon and has read all the mirage stuff on.

They won't do them in those colors because they're marketed with the bullshit bright colors to adults. It fucking sucks.

>>5391656
I mean, they did Rafael and Leo in the bright colors too. I figure muted Donnie and Mikey are coming in future sets. If they make each one a little different or variant color characters, it encourages people to buy more of characters they already might have.

>>5391654
I don't have any. However, he is 8.5 inches tall at the top of his head (not counting his little antenna), if that helps.

Quality to kids is a whole different spectrum. Today's tmnt toys are the same as the original with just less paint apps. Hell the new turtles blow the old ones out of the water.
>>
>>5391676
You can put any color bandana, etc. on one of those darker green bodies and have whatever turtle you want. There should be 4 shades of green to really be able to properly represent the turtles as I know them.

That said, even the brighter green collector turtles are AMAZING and I'm thrilled to have them.

I do wonder if they're gonna come out with Playmates colors for the collector Turtles.

They already have the show-accurate darker colors in the Krang set, and merch-accurate bright colors in the single packs. Getting the toy skin tones would be neat (although it would kill the ability to exchange heads).

"Collect all the figures in the series and build the full, illustrated story" - Mega Bloks site.
Apparently you can make a coherent story if you buy all 4 Turtle singles + Rocksteady and Bebop.

It looks like something's hindered. Maybe it's those ball and socket joints they love so much that makes it look off

Also that HB set at least has quite a few minifigs even though we all know the MB minis are miles above lego's.

I really think I'd consider buying the krang set more if it had mikey or I wasnt so tired of how worshiped the original toon is.

You ever hear a song that you like at first but then it's played way too much everywhere and you start to just want to avoid it? That's exactly what's going on here.

A few years ago the 80s turtles started getting merchandise for the older generation like crazy and it's everywhere and has gotten old to me. At first I was happy. They were my childhood, but I've since realized that the show has far from aged well and is only good to watch for how bad it is (great voice cast aside). Same thing goes for Mighty Morphin. Its worshipped even though it's one of the worse, if not the worst, seasons of power rangers yet that's all the fucking merch we get and just like with the turtles they always use the same shit art.

All for nostalgia.

So yeah. I'm tired of the 80s toon. I will never not be grateful for what it did for the turtles though.

Alright i'm coming here looking for advice. I recently purchased the skylanders megabloks set with Eyebrawl in it because I thought he looked pretty rad but he had some weird clear layer over him when I took him out of the baggies. I was wondering if you guys have ever experienced this with Megabloks. Is it plastic leakage, should I be worried, anyone have some advice? Should I just return it? I've bought a decent amount of them over time and this has never happened and i'm OCD with taking care of my figures so I am desperate for help.

I grabbed all of the blind-bag turtle packs for my son.

Totally dig the four-armed foot soldier - I'm going to grab any I can find (stupid fucking useful chase figure).

Halo Heroes came out at my walmart. I grabbed one of each. Not that impressed, especially for the cost. They -are- super pretty in general, and I totally dig that Buck has an actual CoD accessory peg on his armor for a knife - makes me wish they'd actually implement that more often in the other lines (okay, mostly just Halo).

I REALLY want the 90's turtles sets, out of pure nostalgia. And the obsessive-compulsive need for my MegaBloks figures to all have the CoD-level articulation. Bebop and Rocksteady, man. Bebop and Rocksteady.


I'm really, really hoping that the local discount stores get the same amount of MegaBloks from the big retailers this year as they did after Christmas last year. I scored most of my MegaBloks for 50-75% off the original prices last year, mostly from Ross stores.

The three Chinese brands that I have encountered are Star Diamond, Sluban, and Enlighten. I would say you started off with the best brand of the three. Sluban isn't too far off from Star Diamond, though. I think most of their sets are copies of old Oxford sets. The more recent Sluban sets have proprietary minifigures, and they're not half-bad. Early Enlighten sets are a little dicey in terms of quality, but they've recently showed signs of stepping up their game. They just rolled out a new "City" theme, a fantasy pirates theme, and a "Fast & Furious" racing theme.

I hated building it. I got the whole classic TMNT mega bloks line. The figures are incredible and fun, but MB still has a long way to go on bricks compared to lego.

It was missing pieces, parts had mold flashing and wouldn't fit, the clutch power is bad a lot of the time, the joints don't work with the clutch of the bricks (try to move a foot aand it will come apart before the balljoint moves, etc).

That being said I like the finished product, despite hating the build. I will buy any Krang's android body tho, even one with elbows and hands this terrible.

Fuck me, I still love it despite my complaints.

Yeah, none of these companies do the greatest job managing their website content. I can only assume the "Creator" sets are older and OOP, which is why Star Diamond doesn't list them on their site. It's still pretty much all you've got.

bricker.info has some limited information on a few other Chinese brands. Nothing on Star Diamond, it seems.
>>
>>5397396
They probably are OOP but then they don't have like some of their newer military sets with the Hoverboat or the tiny Fighter Jet sets.

>Okay. But more pieces doesn't always mean better.
Wasn't your statement that you didn't feel the price was worth it? Amount of pieces definitely doesn't equate to how good it is compared to other sets, that is true.

However, it's always been a handy measure of whether or not the plastic volume was good value for the price it's at.


Also I very much agree that 2012 is the current best of the Turtles shows.

I guess our feelings of "worth" are different. I want a fun end result. A long build is never a bad thing, but the ending needs to feel worth my time.

Honestly, the car builds don't look all that great. They still look a thousand percent better than what Block Tech has been pooping out, and Block Tech has the official F&F license.

Yeah those F&F sets are so lame.

Made this from a COGO set and some other parts; holds really well. The tires get oily when stored for long periods.

Both COGO and Sluban's blue is some kind of darker blue and their yellow is orange-ish. The other high-quality knockoffs have blue and yellow that matches Lego.

COGO Minifigures are ugly.

Well you did try to con them for weapons... but maybe it was delayed cuz of the holidays, I got the Broadsword for Christmas but alas my poor Master Chief was without a leg. Made a request promptly but didn't hear a word back for about a week, was starting to worry I'd made too many orders in a short time (simultaneously with the Cyclops toe I had an ODST from the ODST vs Drones pack with defective ball joints for the legs) but I finally got an order approved email.

Neither franchise is meant for kids so this line was aimed at teens-adults from the get go.

Nick TMNT is a kids franchise just like their power rangers, minions, and spongebob. All of which the minifigures are nothing like the halo, cod, and assassin's creed lines which are made for older people.

Yeah I was a kid/teenager when they started filling up these games to be aimed at my demographic. It was pretty disgusting when they started advertising the US Military in them or with them.

>>5408102
They are made for kids. The ESRB or PEGI merely rate the content of the game. Just because Wreck It Ralph is rated G doesn't mean it's not for adults. Same for Pixels. Its an adult movie wrapped up in "children's" video games.

ESRB is voluntary, it's not law.

A G rating means general audience. I mean of course since you think the games are meant for kids means you really wouldn't know basic information.
>>
>>5409641
The single pack turtles all share the same colors. Krang's Rampage has darker, cartoon-accurate colors.

Presumably any full sets we get later will also have the cartoon colors.

>>5409652
Don't be butt hurt because your video games are targeted to children and you can't see that, is all I'm saying. Just because the ESRB slaps a M rating on the product does not mean it wasn't manufactured with children in mind to be a large population of the userbase.
