I wonder if the will have a discount if bought as a set similar to P1

also wouldn't mind if they were 1/5 scale, not my preferred scale but a team of these even at a smaller scale would still make for an impressive display. im looking forward to the full reveal either way

They need to nail their QC on these though. We know Prime1 killed it on the Bay Turtles and will kill it on the 90's ones so direct comparisons will be made if the QC suffers on SS' end

Yep I'm in same boat and think that's smart move Ricky Bobby! Also just looked again at picture and the new sideshow statues aren't fully sculpted, they are rocking mixed media bandanas, which is ok with us due to old bandanas breaking from time to time!

I'm so excited for these. TMNT is my favorite fictional thing ever.

I hope they do red bandada ex's.

Hip hip hooray! Really looking forward to how these turn out.

I love the turtles so much and that first set from Sideshow is just sitting in my closet, waiting for me to move so they can be displayed proudly when I have more space.

The only Turtles statue I have right now is the little good smiles Leonardo.

Yeah, I agree it's definitely ok when comes to turtles bandanas... Plus, they will have the wire in them so you can bend them to ones liking.

This is all so true PUREinvasion, so I hope they bring their A-game, and hoping they are up to the task of our brutal collectible hobby enthusist critics here on the boards with our super analyzing every square inch of each turtle

All these Turtles statues and still none of them can trump Sideshow's comiquettes and I'm saying that having never owned them.

To be honest I would like to have all 4 sets, both these and Sideshow's previous, Prime1's, and even Ikon's. Ikon's doesn't get enough love to me as they are straight perfect representations of the cartoons/videogames.

For anyone wondering Eastman and Laird sold (well really Eastman) the Turtles to Nickelodeon and these are realistic takes on their's and even more so Fox's older show's versions.

I'd be happy if they are 1/5 scale.

Not liking Mike's head/face at all. I hope they're still working on that.

I'd also not like mixed media but Sideshow love MM, soo....

Guess I'll wait for more of a reveal.

From the print you can see the strapping and knee/elbow pads from the new animated series, however the rest of their styling is unique.
