And now there's TMNT PVCs up for PO for all four on BBTS. CG renders, shrunken down 1/4 sculpts. Michelangelo doesn't even have a chain on his nunchakus. They must be desperate.

Renders are part of the PVC business. That is how a lot of retailers want it so they can preorder while we are producing at the factory. That's business. But, anyways new pictures will be posted this week/next week directly from factory production. And they look amazing! And yes, Mikey has a chain.

I can attest BBTS does have a lot of render POs up nowadays for PVCs. I think it's stupid though :|

Thanks bud for the back up! Yeah, it's a little weird how it works. But, we are trying to be a least a little different by giving them factory photos to replace the renders as they become available. TMNT and GI Joe should be loaded now or soon. Transformers next week hopefully.

Honestly I'd never purchase any of them that were renders, unpainted, or concept art (IIRC there was one that was literally just a concept picture). The ones that say "Confirming" are bad enough enough for me. But v0v whatever works... Maybe make sure BBTS goes back and updates them, I feel like they might not ^^

Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

Hard to get excited for this given how they handled the 1/4 line.

Sadly it's a catch 22. Hard for us to support a line if the collectors won't even support the line. And I'm a big Joe fan and want this line to go deep like MOTU.

But, here are some pics of the factory samples (still tweaking them some). Apologizes for the bad cell phone pics (tried whiting out the background as well to make easier to see). Also available at GameStop.

I'll be picking these for sure.

Would have been great to at least get a Snake Eyes in 1/4.

Those look good. I really like the bases too. I said before I wasn't going to write off the line completely and I meant it. I'm like 50% in based on these pics and that could go to 100% depending on production and which characters you do next.
