BrickG Posted December 19, 2013 Posted December 19, 2013 Either those costumes are from later in season 2 which is highly possible, or they're just other costumes. Ninja Turtles have a way of having strange costumes for their toys that never appear anywhere else. Quote
ReZourceman Posted December 19, 2013 Posted December 19, 2013 So we can get four different turtles EACH from two waves.....(I love them all by the way)....this just makes me angrier over the Spider-Clone situation. Quote
Oky Posted December 19, 2013 Posted December 19, 2013 Booyakasha! These sets look great! The T-Sub is excellent, and so are the new variations of the Turtles! Finally a serious Mikey! And hooray for Leatherhead! Not so crazy about Spider Bytez since he was my least favorite villain in the show. I was hoping for Mutagen Man, but I guess Spider Bytez was inevitable after the introduction of the Chima spider legs. Can't wait to see the rest! FALSE. The Turtles have not worn these costumes in the show and won't. And how are you so sure of that last part? As others have said, this didn't stop other toy companies from releasing the Turtles in gear like this, and TLG has been drawing a lot of inspiration from other merchandise in other themes like Spongebob and Super Heroes, so why not TMNT? The catalog says that the sets are based on the TV show, so we'll have to take their word for it, even if the minifig variations are only loosely based on it. Quote
Freddy Bricker Posted December 19, 2013 Posted December 19, 2013 I haven't been keeping up with the show very much lately, but didn't Raphael wear that suit when his pet turtle spike got mutated, and the both went on a vigilante spree? Quote
Faefrost Posted December 19, 2013 Posted December 19, 2013 I'm sure any outfits are based on art and recommendations supplied by Nikolodeon. And they have final approval on anything like that. Quote

No, only Spike/Slash wore new gear in that episode. By the way, with all this new gear, it's a little disappointing that they still don't have their elbow guards, especially since some of the Simpsons figs are getting all-around arm printing, but that's just a nitpick.

Freddy Bricker Posted December 19, 2013 Posted December 19, 2013 (edited) No, only Spike/Slash wore new gear in that episode. Ah ok, thanks for clearing that up for me. Coudl've sworn that costume was from this season. I expect to see it sometime in the show, though. It just looks great. And I can't wait to see Karai. I hope she doesn't come out Clone-Wars looking. Either way, I'll get her. Edited December 19, 2013 by Freddy Bricker Quote
Oky Posted December 19, 2013 Posted December 19, 2013 Ah ok, thanks for clearing that up for me. Could've sworn that costume was from this season. I expect to see it sometime in the show, though. It just looks great. And I can't wait to see Karai. I hope she doesn't come out Clone-Wars looking. Either way, I'll get her. Agreed. Why would she? April turned out just fine, so I think they'll do a good job with Karai too as long as they don't go crazy with her makeup. What I want to know is what hairpiece they'll use for her. Perhaps Nya's or a new one? And yeah, I'm most likely getting that set too, no matter how it turns out. Quote
BlueberryWaffles Posted December 19, 2013 Posted December 19, 2013 While I don't watch the show (and I really should ), LEGO has said themselves (in the retail catalogs) that 79118-79121 are based on the show. I'm guessing the one on the top is the Mutation Chamber set (79119), while the bottom one is the definitely the Undersea Chase set (79121). Additionally, the banner on the top is based on the show. The sets are based off the show, only the costumes are not. Just toy variants. And how are you so sure of that last part? As others have said, this didn't stop other toy companies from releasing the Turtles in gear like this, and TLG has been drawing a lot of inspiration from other merchandise in other themes like Spongebob and Super Heroes, so why not TMNT? The catalog says that the sets are based on the TV show, so we'll have to take their word for it, even if the minifig variations are only loosely based on it. Sorry, I should have said won't out of what they have announced. And they've announced a lot of the new S2 stuff. I do like the costumes. The only thing is I wish Donnie didn't have goggles. Quote
Freddy Bricker Posted December 19, 2013 Posted December 19, 2013 Agreed. Why would she?

Perhaps Nya's or a new one? And yeah, I'm most likely getting that set too, no matter how it turns out. Her eyes seem larger than usual in the show. But if April came out fine, then no worries there, I suppose. Quote
Lord Rahl of Clannad Posted December 19, 2013 Posted December 19, 2013 Wow. That image has made me extremely excited for the upcoming TMNT wave. The new Turtle variations (Raphael in particular) are brilliant, and the builds shown are certainly an improvement on the first wave of sets. The Turtle Sub looks excellent and very accurate, and the addition of Leatherhead (who looks amazing) in that set makes it a must-buy for me. The build for the other set is looking pretty good as well, but I am amazed that they made the decision to include Spider Bytez in that set; he only appeared in one episode after all. It's an interesting choice, but I don't mind it at all. I'm disappointed that they didn't show off Karai here, as that's what I'm looking forward to most in this wave. It's also a shame that the T-Rocket wasn't shown, but I can wait on that on. Bring on May 2014! Quote
gedren_y Posted December 20, 2013 Posted December 20, 2013 About Donatello's purple outfit, it makes me think of an auto-body shop employee, so maybe we'll get the CMF Welder's gear and him working on something. Quote
SoupOrFishOil Posted December 20, 2013 Posted December 20, 2013 As someone who didn't car for this year's wave of TMNT sets (aside from a few figures) I want to say that the sub is great. I'm not so sure about the Mutation Chamber, because Spyderbytez seems to be the main draw there (and taking from a lot of pieces) and I can't stand the look. I couldn't even tell it was a spider until someone mentioned it. I'm looking forward to seeing the other two sets now though. Quote
commodore_legolas Posted December 21, 2013 Posted December 21, 2013 I love the new pic! Is Donnie a podracer now? Quote
Faefrost Posted December 22, 2013 Posted December 22, 2013 Sadly there does not appear to be a Michelangelo tightly whitey fig looming. Which oddly is just about the only costume variant that we have seen in the show. Quote
BlueberryWaffles Posted December 23, 2013 Posted December 23, 2013 I would love a Turtleflytle Mikey Quote
Numbuh1Nerd Posted December 23, 2013 Posted December 23, 2013 I think the current molds with just a head printing with classic style white eyes would more than satisfy the old timers. The actual shape of the turtle minis is more than acceptable for pretty much any incarnation save possibly the worst of the live action movies. Based on this weeks episode, I think we can now understand why we are getting a Batman Man-Bat set this wave, and can probably speculate that we will be seeing "Wingnut" in a set as well. They saw enough convergence between Chima, Super Heroes and TMNT that they can really make use of a bat wing piece of some sort. Probably in a smaller set that gives us a Turtle Glider or two. And as embarrassed as I am to admit this, given my advanced age, you are probably doing yourself a disservice if you don't check out the new Nikolodean TMNT show. It really is astonishingly good. There's no need to be embarrassed! The show's actually really good, despite any target audience. Never apologize for enjoying something, I mean we're all having a mostly intelligent discussion about plastic blocks that most people give up at the age of 10, so no shame bro! The new costumes are pretty much the lame outfits they gave the action figures, which really bums me out. My big problem with action figures is when they'll just make up lame variants just to sell the same figure twice. Most of them look okay in this case, though. Definitely capable of reusing those suits for other figures. Spiderbytez looks awesome, along with Leatherhead. I hope when Killer Croc comes back to the DC wave he'll look more like that. I really hope we get Mutagen Man, Metalhead, Slash, and Casey Jones in this wave. I saw a neat custom Metalhead that would be perfect online. From the look of things they're still catching up with Season 1, so I doubt Slash and Casey will show up. Mutagen Man's also kind of unlikely. Quote

BJM Posted December 25, 2013 Posted December 25, 2013 Just made the shell raiser today, Christmas Day, way cool dogpound. Can not wait for leatherhead. And yes the cartoon is so cool and very sensible for 36 year olds. Cowabunga Quote
TheLazyChicken Posted December 29, 2013 Posted December 29, 2013 In the lego club magazine they show a blueprint of the T-rawket. Quote
Legoman123 Posted December 30, 2013 Posted December 30, 2013 When will we see official images of these sets? Quote
just2good Posted December 30, 2013 Author Posted December 30, 2013 When will we see official images of these sets? Since the sets are coming out in May, maybe we'll see the TV show sets at the New York Toy Fair and the movie sets leak late March (like the Man of Steel sets last year). Quote
