Wyrm, Panda Khan, and Tatoo!  So happy they are doing more characters that were vintage Playmates toys.  We haven't had any for what feels like awhile.  I definitely want all of these.

Yeah, I can see them doing them all now, so Scale Tail, Hotspot, Halfcourt, Hothead, Pizza Face and many more!

 

There's even two more Punk Turtles coming to cover off the two additional jackets that appeared in a different episode to the Usagi episode that the four pack was based on.

I think I'd only pick up more Toon figures if they were characters I had or wanted growing up. A lot of what they've shown are things I have no attachment to, despite them looking really good. Tattoo, Panda Khan, Wyrm, all look great, but are not characters or figures I desperately need or even casually want in my collection. I really feel pretty complete on the toon collection, unless they find a way to make Irma and Burne available again.

You're still missing Lord Dregg, Tempestra and Carter!

I'm not missing those, they mean nothing to me.

Were you an ''all-inner'' up until a certain point or have you always just picked and choosed as the line progressed?

I wish it were the bigger, yellow-skinned Archie Tattoo, but I'm still happy about him.

And Archie (or Playmates) never colored Shredder or Hamato Yoshi or Oyuki or Chu Hsi or Fu Sheng that color, so I have never & will never assume it's racially insensitive like old WB/Disney cartoons. You can say it's my "white privilege" but I've always taken it as a mutation or superhuman side effect. Chu Hsi's Warrior Dragon form is yellow, but his human form is a regular skin tone. The other sumo wrestler Tattoo goes up against in his one issue has a normal skin tone as well.

Heck, "The Enigma" isn't a blue-skinned human being - he just tattooed his skin all blue, head to toe.

#ReleaseYellowTattoo

(But yes, I realize this is Toon Tattoo, and that is EXACTLY how he looked in that one episode he was in, lol.)

My initial post kind of sums it up. I just pick up the figures I had or wanted as a kid. So there's a bunch I have no attachment to and am very comfortable skipping.

Where's everyone seeing the Panda Khan? I haven't seen the pics of him, yet. 😮

@basil-elks Pixel Dan got the reveal. It's on his socials/YouTube.

 

Love the new Shredder. Also looks like a Leo/Raph Punk alternate colors coat set is coming. I would have liked the white coat version, but I probably don't need more of them.

I recall someone on the old boards was really holding out for Wyrm. I don't remember who that person was, but hopefully they're happy. I'm guessing he's colored like the animation for the character that was featured in a Chef Boyardee commercial, if I have that right.

 

And I know @theknightdamien has been wishing for a Panda Khan out of the Super7 Ultimates! line, hopefully this one will do. I'm hoping this means all of those non-cartoon characters who appeared in the toy line are on the table. I needs me a Monty Moose from someone. Also worth noting, Panda Khan is not a Viacom-owned character so he will assuredly be released as a single like Usagi and I wouldn't be surprised if we get a variant or two (like a Playmates colors version, for one).

I want Wyrm, but not Tatu.  Wonder of Panda Kahn's a 2-pack as well?

@cmoney doubtful, because as I pointed out, that character is under a separate licensing agreement like Usagi.

Perfect!  Well, except for the trying to get him part, but we'll jump off that bridge when it becomes appropriate. 🙂
