Oh man. I want a Krang from this line SO HARD. Playmates said that if the Turtles sell well, they may release more figures in the line! So here's hoping!

So far I've only bought Raph,

So far I've only bought Raph, but I do like them! I just don't like how huge they are, and that they don't really need the fingers and toes to be articulated. I'm glad the hands can hold things, at least, 'cause Marvel Legends had already proved how useless articulated fingers could be. Seems like a lot of designers that make articulated fingers just expect them to wrap around an accessory and stay there without any...you know, grip strength. They thought ahead with these guys, though, and added a sort of curve inside the fingers.

I would probably be in love with these guys if it wasn't for the new 4 inch guys. Now those blew me away! Absolutely fantastic. If these classics ones had been around that size or 6 inches then I think I would be much more happy with them.

Just wondering

Great review! You definately made me want to go out and get them now. I was just wondering what size/scale they were in as I didn't see it in the review.

I just did a small

I just did a small comparison. Seems like my Leo is just a few inches taller than a deluxe size transformer.

Sorry, I don't normally think

Sorry, I don't normally think to add size comparisons. They are right at six inches. So, they are the same height as Marvel Legends and slightly smaller than DC Universe Classics.

WOW...

... Seriously metal chains for Mikeys nunchucks AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

These look like they jumped out of the very first TMNT intro, (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rS-qFdw-v_o)
I've always preferred them in that look, only later on the animators got more sloppy art wise.

I love the man hole covers they're a really nice touch!
