Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles were back at Toy Fair 2012, and Playmates showed the newest incarnation of the pizza eating heroes off thoroughly during their event on Sunday.
While our trusted photographer Brian was focusing on the toys, I hung back and focused on all the cool new CGI artwork found floating around the room, plus all the new branding like logos, etc. So, check out about 50 new shots of the Playmates booth including some really good shots of in-show still frames.
There are some artistic style shots of the play set toys in there at the end, and one solid TMNT Classics group shot too.
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Toy Fair 2012 Reveal - AWESOME!
Wow..... I am impressed....
I do not want to wait!!!!!! I want those classic turtles now!!!!! Stop teasing me!!!!
Nice work, Playmates! It looks like they're nailing it on every angle from packaging, style, articulation, etc. I'm impressed.
Anybody else think we may be seeing the smash hit of the year here?? Its got everything roleplay weapons,great classic figures for collectors,awesome 3.75inch line for kids(and collectors!!) An AMAZING playset,and brilliant vehicles too!! Manoman i hope the animated series does well!!! Id love to see this line run and run!!!
UPDATE:
Over 40 new photos added included back of packaging shots!
KANG! KANG! Want KANG!
Wait..."The" Kraang? Kraang never needed "the" in front of his name.
THIS is the star of toyfair for me!
And are those Metalhead and Leatherhead?!? OMG, YES!!!!
And is that dog creature Razar??
This line is soooo much better than the last TMNT series! Looks like we're back to the over-the-top silly mutants, instead of all the superheroes, oriental mystics, and virtualform stuff from the last line.
Bring on Wingnut and Screwloose!
So impressive with what they're offering for the new show. The classic line looks amazing, including the packaging. I really hope to see more figures from that line. And holy crap, metalhead?!
I know right?? I cant believe how stoked i am for these,when they first announced the 3.75inch line i looked over em and decided i was definitely gonna get Don (LOVE that moody headsculpt) and possibly Raph,then i saw that immense playset,and i mean how can ANYONE who collects MU/SW/Joe/any 3.75inch line NOT want that???(and even better the G/F has said i can get it!!!) Then i saw the van which is just ridiculous and gets better and better with every viewing,and that turtle trike with the cockpit shell armor is absolute genius!! And now they are showing us Kraang,and Foot soldiers on bikes and mutants,and robot turtles...MAN IM EXCITED!!! As RR said i want these on shelves now!!! I dont wanna wait any longer!!!!
Are these the first turtles figs to have knee and elbow articulation? Man even has thigh swivels.
I'm super impressed, this might be the line I'm most excited about this year. Other than April and the gimmick figures, I love everything I see about the main line.
So glad to see metalhead and all the mutants.
these are seriously awesome Im so gonna be collecting them!!!
Looking at the classics again and it doesn't really look like they're holding their weapons well, which is kind of concerning me. I mean it looks like Donatello's bo is held on by glue or some epoxy.
Though their ability to hold them concerned me from the get go, with individually articulated fingers.
That Metalhead concept looks awesome. And the prototype looks like it captures the personality of the art perfectly.
I am stoked for this line. This may make up for my disappointment with most of the new transformers line.
april is adorable!
the turtles look amazing. shredder looks the best he's ever looked in toy form, in almost a decade.
splinter is wonderful! love the colors!
Krang!!!!
Really digging some of those side mutation characters. The metal suit guy (not shredder or krang) seems interesting on his concept art. Digging the alligator concept art too.
The dragon armored head red guy looks interesting too. Though I'd probably just get him to use his head for a custom.
Overall not bad. Wish it had some better articulation, but great for custom fodder at the very least.
these are just too sweet. definitely picking up the turtlesat the very least and that turtle van is tempting. love the new style and the articulation is almost as good as the NECA ones.
NVM on what I said about articulation. After looking at the playset photos, they managed to hide the joints pretty well. Really digging them now. What's the scale?
yeah ball jointed almost everything and double hinged knees i think. no ankles but i can live with that. scale judging from the demo guy's hands, i'd say 4-5" scale maybe for the main line.
