Great post.

I wonder what that $100 TMNT item (that can lead to party wagon) could be? Android Krang maybe? Are there any other small vehicles?

Thanks.

Android Krang will be a Deluxe figure like Metalhead, around the $30.00 price point with VHS style box.

I should also mention Brian Flynn from Super7 talked about a Party Wagon and a Thundertank for the Thundercats line in a Pixel Dan interview.

If Super7 were to make a Party Wagon it would probably be similar to the toyline one and that might discourage Neca from making a cartoon accurate one.

As for the $100 item, I really can't come up with any guesses as to what it could be.

Ii was thinking that the $100 can be a transport module, the villains used in the show, but that thing would be huge. I wouldn't be interested in one, tbh.

if you talking about the driller i really dream of having one, it may not be as iconic as the technodrome but it impresses me more than the party van and technodrome. it's one of those nice to have type of transport that seams to be feasible. it shouldn't be too big for action sized. Playmates made one that isn't too big so i assume a full size should be 50% bigger at best?

K1LLJOY thanks so much for that write up! Glad to see they're hitting it hard but really wish we could just preorder these things at Target and Walmart. I might get one of those module things if that's the $100 item, would probably get a party van too.

Is the old 80s cartoon available anywhere in high quality? I can only find a DVD set, and in this day and age, that just won't do.

Well, it'll have to - because that's the best we've got.

DVD is all that is out there at this point. I suggest getting the full series DVD set at Best Buy. It retails for $39.99 and goes on sale for $34.99 every few weeks. I nabbed it at that price recently, and it is awesome! Obviously, not HD like we would prefer, but the animation has a nostalgic feel that works great on the DVD format. $34.99 for all 10 Seasons, plus some bonus episodes on Disc One! Nab that for the time being.

Yeah no one's doing a 4K restoration of the entire series unfortunately.

I can't figure out how to post the video here for you, but Judith Hoag(April) posted on twitter a video of her opening a box she received from NECA. She didn't show the contents yet but it looks like a movie April might be part of the SDCC exclusives.

OMG!

I was hoping something similar to how BTAS was treated was a possibility.

 

[Darthy]

It will come one day, fingers crossed

It's not like I'm expecting HD, but I have the Pac Man version of that, and the screen is even blurry on that. I imagine the really blurry picture in the listing is pretty much what you're going to get lol.

Based on how much she is engaged with the fan base these days, I'm not surprised if we will see a movie April figure some time soon.
That being said, the contents in the box was the NECA small scale turtles and the new Casey/Raph 2 pack.

Neca asked her to record her reaction and post it, they knew it would get a reaction out of TMNT fans, it's smart marketing on their part. Get fans begging for an April figure on her twitter account and then she posts surprise here it is when they're ready to reveal it.

 

[gaunted]

They just revealed two more TMNT two packs of the turtles, Raph and Mike , Leo and Donnie, looks like they added a new bandana that drapes over both shoulders

Walmart exclusives?
