>>9304799 >>9304803 Doesn't look like any paint slop, are the chances good that wave 4 will be a little less scuffed than wave 3?
Anonymous
>>9304797 honestly I would expect a figure this large to be incapable of supporting its weight while leaning backwards, just like real life. That's a reasonable place for the knees to buckle, because the alternative is ridiculously strong knee ratchets.
Crimson Commander !!uoqqXVkn8aK
>>9304809 I wonder if they switched factories with the turtles? They did with Thundercats, because they were having issues at the first factory which produced figures for Mattel as well. Either way, wave 3 had a lot of paint QC that the first 2 waves didn't. Shit happens I guess, but maybe the figures will get a re-issue down the line and those will have better paint apps.

Quoted By:
>>9304821 it looked to me like the knees held up to a reasonable tilt, and once that tilt was surpassed, then they failed. so unless you want to pose your Sentinel doing limbo.... and maybe then just get a stand? I certainly dislike when knee ratchets are TOO strong, that makes posing harder.
>>9304827 naw that's not the reason, it's because you can't trademark a generic word like bumblebee or hot rod. you also can't trademark a person's name, and that's what Donatello is. If he was Hamato Donatello, that you can trademark. but I think only the 2003 versions took their grandfather's name.
you see it in marvel legends figures sometimes too, you can't trademark 'thing' so it'll be like 'Marvel's Thing'
now obviously if you tried to sell any character even remotely turtlesque and called him donatello you'd be in trouble, but not for trademark violation.

their listing is 119 dorra though. it has gone in and out of stock several times as the guy keeps buying more from walmart and then selling with walmart's assistance at a huge profit.

>>9309294 i like the idea of that one, but not so much the particular colors they chose nor the choice of character. a recolored foot soldier is a much more obvious choice for wave 1.
Similarly for wave 2, recolored Shredder would have made way more sense, albeit slightly stepping on the toes of the toon line. I guess mutagen man and baxter make sense as the most kinda twisted mutants, so glow in the dark stuff works on them, but just.. uuugly colors.
wave 3 didn't have its alt color shown yet, did it? because I would think metalhead, since he had a recolor in the old toyline. though of course April did too, but different stripes aren't gonna sell that well.
and the best candidate for a glow in the dark version for wave 4 has to be muckman. wait, what wave was samurai leo in?

>>9312571 technically as long as you get your money back they're okay. The only way they could be in any real trouble is if it was some kind of advertised discount. at that point 'bait and switch' laws take over, and they would be required to give you that price on the item eventually even if it takes a while.
You will often notice sales adding 'while supplies last' text just to get around that. I'm sure they pulled something similar here despite the basic idea, Seinfeld piping up from 1991 "you know how to TAKE the reservation, you just don't know how to HOLD the reservation"

>>9312899 anon I think if making more was a profitable option, they would do it. after all, more money is more money, and money is money. The only reason they would give people's money BACK is if they had no choice.
the correction here is to reprimand/fire the one keeping track of the numbers and not cutting it off properly.. or if there was something wrong at the factory, to drop the blamehammer there so we know.
