From Brian Flynn's interview from last night:>The pre-order for Wave 5 is in March!!! >Brian says he has 9 waves planned so far. >Possibly some Turtles crossover figures such as Star Trek or another Turtle crossover. Brian says one is very close to happening since he has licenses for other properties and is trying to sign the deal. It's unknown what the crossover is, but Brian said it could be something that was supposed to happen in the vintage line, but never happened, such as the Star Wars turtles, since Brian has the Disney license. >He's going to make toys based on unproduced figures, but they wont be in Waves 5 or 6 and be things that haven't been made before, such as finishing out the Punk Frogs, or making Playmates style versions of characters who appeared in the cartoon, but never appeared in the toys. >Brian can make characters from the cartoons, but it seems that he and Randy at Neca have a gentleman's agreement. >He says he wants to make characters who appeared in comics that didn't get made in the vintage toys and make deep cut characters that would surprise you. he says he also has the rights to Archie Comics characters and may possibly have some rights to other characters, besides Usagi Yojimbo. >Metal Head will have some vac-metal on him and might have light piping also.

>Mouser army builder pack might happen, because people keep asking for them. But Brian isn't for sure on if this will happen or not, because he doesn't want to hurt exclusivity for fans who already bought Baxter and hasn't settled on if it should have any new features or differences so as to not hurt the resale value for the first release Mousers from Wave 1. >Brian discussed April and said a lot of her figure was redesigned to please coomers, because she was one of those characters who turned boys into men. >Says he can't show her yet until he can show people test shots of wave 3, but says it'll be shown hopefully soon. He says it's "radically different in a good way." >There's also another con exclusive like the glow-in-dark Baxter! This will more than likely be some kind of repaint of a previous figure and therefore something you could live without. Anonymous

Retroblasting is continuing his attack on Super7 and doing yet another livestream to launch the attack, because he's angry over Super7 wanting $450 for a Thundertank, which supports Hasbro's claim that it costs a lot of money to make vehicles.
https://twitter.com/RetroBlasting/status/1357776509914800128 Retroblasting the other night did an interview with Bobby Vala, who used to work on G.I. Joe regarding his Action Force line, but seemed to have ulterior motives where he kept trying to get Vala to attack Brian Flynn's statements to Pixel Dan regarding the price of the Thundertank.
The livestream with Bobby Vala-
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1JwH3GQPEkc Vala had basically said that the price S7 wants may be accurate and that despite Retroblasting and his friend LioConvoy's bitching regarding how long S7 takes to make toys, that made to order toys can take over 10 months to make, because he himself, Bobby Vala is also taking a long time to make his own made to order toys.

Hey guys, LioConvoy here. I just wanted to apologise for all the bullshit that has been going on about me and RetroBlasting. All this is because some weirdo (arbcoemoloyee88) got into a spat with Michael and myself on YouTube and has been trying to defermane us ever since. Nothing he says is true. It has only recently been brought to my attention that it's gotten this bad for all of you. I'm sorry that this guy can't let go of a grudge he's been holding for over a year now. Once again, so sorry to rain his stupidity down on you.

This feels potentially actionable, like Brian Flynn might have a case to sue Retroblasting for defamation since he's a public figure who's been told over and over again how much a toy costs, and he's actively and deliberately misleading people and trying to organize people against a business.

>>8756367 The issue isn't so much assuming april is short, as not realizing the turtles are short. the original turts, both the cartoon and the toyline, were VERY short. the movie cast short actors in the suits too, mostly asian stuntmen. It's only starting with 2003 that they're a LITTLE taller, but still under six feet. OG turts were like 5 foot nothin. roughly the same MASS as a man, because of their large heads and heavy shells and muscles.

I thought this was news worthy and related to the thread-
ToyGuru is apparently doing a video defending Super7, which premieres tomorrow regarding the controversy over how much a made to order vehicle like a Thundertank will cost.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9aLN0LhItJ8 I wonder how much the Party Wagon will ultimately be? In theory it's smaller than the Thundertank and will likely sell a whole lot more and could be one of the profitable items Super7 could make. Turtles is a considerably larger brand that for some reason people really turn out for.

>>8756932 I... I kinda want to see his reaction after he basically interrogated Bobby Vala over it and then continued to dig a deeper hole, and now Scott Neitlich is going to also say Brian Flynn is correct and his prices are fair for what he's doing. Brian Flynn isn't selling his toys at retail(except maybe a few re-action figures) and they're always produced in much lower numbers. Sure you can rag on Re-Actions, because they're simple 5POA stuff that's made for a particular type of collector, but Ultimates do come with a fair amount of accessories for their price point-- they feel pretty high quality in hand and have almost too many accessories.

>>8756549 That's admirable. Imagine if everyone had that attitude. No one would get toys first, and there wouldn't be any toys at all. Reminds me of the argument that people shouldn't be selfish.
So a man isn't selfish and when he gets a bonus check from work, gives it to his wife. But his wife isn't selfish, so she gives it to her kids. And her kids were taught not to be selfish, so they give it to a classmate at school. And those classmates were taught not to be selfish so they give it on to someone else, and so forth.
This creates a perpetual wheel of no one accepting anything because no one is selfish. Or perhaps a single selfish person that's get everything from everyone since he's the only person willing to accept things "selfishly" from others.
Imagine it were like that with toys. Bryan Flynn asks what toys you want most and I say I want TMNT vehicles, but I am not selfish so let someone else get their favorite toy made first. And that person's favorite toy is Thundercats, but he's not selfish so he lets someone get to pick. And a perpetual cycle where no one gets anything made. Except I guess I would get what I want made, because I'm the selfish one who would tell Bryan exactly what I want made right now and unapologetically accept it.

>>8756926 ToyGuru's video is up, and he indeed did back up Brian Flynn and Super7's price points.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9aLN0LhItJ8 >Said that something like a Thundertank wouldn't meet the factory mandated Minimum Order Number, aka M.O.Q. and that factories charge you more money when that happens and that those costs end up on the consumer. It's also extremely expensive to make 6-inch scaled vehicles, which is why nobody does it really. >Also says, where would something like a Jabba Sail Barge fit on a store planogram if sold at retail-- Target only has a few aisles and they'd have to take a few shelves out just to accommodate the item in Star Wars' limited shelf space? Are they just going to put one on the floor he says, and then have an employee fetch them out of the back like they're a bike? Big Box stores aren't that inclined to gamble on something that large that they might lose money on. And in order to replace a large item on a shelf, such as a bike or a children's slide, Hasbro has to be able to sort of guarantee that something like a Jabba's Sail Barge could sell more units than a slide or bike, and therefore deserves that space. >He says we're very lucky to be getting things like the Thundertank, or even the Haslab toys because they just don't work at retail. And that the cost is simply because Thundercats fans are so small and there's going to be so few made on top of the already high tooling cost. And that the smaller and more niche the property, the more expensive it will be to make items for it, particularly big items, because you're producing under M.O.Q., and therefore the company has to pass along that cost onto the consumer. He ends with saying that something like a Thundertank pre-order is a once in a lifetime item that will likely never happen again, and if you're a fan this is your one shot to get it and then quotes the famous Eminem song lyrics in reference to this.

>>8757909 It's toy news and interesting toy news at that explaining the toy industry. And it's also a fact that Super7 received a lot of backlash over their Thundertank's price tag and how long their toys were taking to make since they're made to order, rather than a limited pre-made number of figures.

>>8757406 The original Party Wagon almost fits the Neca TMNT inside. I'm of the opinion that a Footski might fit a Super7 Foot Soldier on it, but I don't own the Footski to try it out. It's designed to hold larger figures to accomodate a variety of different sized characters in the vintage line, such as Bebop and Rockstead, as well as Shredder and the Foot Soldier.
The included pic here is the Neca figures inside the Party Wagon. In order to make them see out of the vehicle you have to bend their heads down. If the vehicle were just a tiny bit bigger you could make them work.

>>8757936 The latter, because Retroblasting keeps harping on that point, about how come something like the Jabba's Sail Barge couldn't be sold at retail, and Scott basically says, because Target would never make their money back and have no where to put them. Obviously Retroblasting's counter to this would be that Target during the Covid shutdown inherited the Galaxy's Edge Millennium Falcon, which I believe was supposed to be a Disney park exclusive, and never originally meant for regular retail, hence the "Galaxy's Edge" name.

>>8758316 Super7 had to deal with that nonsense a lot when it came to MOTU Classics because they wanted to re-issue the convention exclusive Shadow Weaver because she was such a major character and nobody could get her for less than like $500 on ebay. There was a lot of MOTU fans that insisted that they'd quit the line if their $500 figures were worth $400 and that it was unfair to someone who just paid $500 for one to have it suddenly be $40 thru Super7.
So to get around that they did the Club Grayskull, Filmation version, which is a better figure anyway. So exclusivity babies could still claim they had a super valuable figure while giving everyone else the chance to buy the character again.

Now I am just getting the figs that I have attachment to or look really neat instead of blindly buy waves like I had been.
>>8758608 Yeah I had debated about picking up the neca Splinter, but in the end I am sticking to the playmates style figs for my collection.

>>8760381 Okay so there's a difference between a license, an exclusive license and a master license. Any licensee needs to apply for and pay money to get a license to produce official product for a brand. Several parties can have a license at once, they all need to apply separately and get reviewed individually. An exclusive license is when a company carries the exclusive rights to produce something (toy figures, plushies, candy) based on a property. A master license means one company is in charge of all licensing for that brand and have "first dibs" on any product, but if they don't want to produce it they can subsidize it to other companies.

>>8760880 Is it Neca? Is it TMNT? Then yes, it belongs in both threads and it's not a shitpost, it's news. TWO MAJOR TOY REVIEWERS, Pixel Dan and ToyBro, both had the same issue with fucked QC where the paint just fell off the figure.

>>8756210 I hope they keep her in the playmates style costume, I like them being just super detailed versions of the toys.
Also while my big figures (mutagen man bebop) are fine and pose well shredder, leo and raph all had this weird issue where the left leg won't bend anyone know anything about that. I know I can heat it up and did that but its odd that all 3 had the same issue

>>8761883 interesting, i've never heard of a joint seizing up after it's been previously working. that's just not the direction that usually goes in, things -loosen- over time.
also I agree, what we saw of the prototype was fine but the head could stand to have another pass, and it sounds like that is mostly what they're going to change. whereas neca made a fine head and a fine body, and just messed up the relative scale of the two (given fred wolf studio's standard of quality, I wouldn't be shocked if she looks accurate to some scenes)

>>8756233 >What the hell is this bullshit? The fact that his first question is ALWAYS "will this piss off our fans" even when it doesn't make sense, keeps me interested and hopeful towards the company. They're interested in making everyone happy, so they're probably not going to be dumping their stock onto ebay exclusive scalpers and moving on anytime soon.

>>8756197 You forgot to mention that he said we'd be getting a turtle wave every four months from now on.
That means 3 waves a year, instead of what we got last year, which was 4 waves (one every three months).
Do you think this is because they're fitting the re-do of wave 1 into the schedule, or is that just how they're going to work on the line now that everyone has the 4 turtles on order?

>>8760866 They’re definitely not letting paint dry. Krang’s inner thighs have red on them from the waist piece. I went through three of them before finally giving up. One of them you could hear the paint cracking apart the first time the legs were moved.

>>8762497 They painted the joints on these and after taking my bodysuit krang out of the package and moving his arms and legs, there were bits of flesh colored paint on my bed. Why paint areas that are clearly going to rub and flake off paint? Mine also had the issue of the red paint rubbing in the package against his thighs and leaving marks.
