TLS has revealed 2 editions of their BST AXN IDW Shredder!
They look amazing, and I will take them both!
Are the SDCC versions of the turtles, with the great paint apps, still available anywhere? I'm tempted...

I don't know, but are you sure you want to spend extra money on this? From the reviews I have seen, the wash is really sloppy; to me, it looks good only on the plastron and the gauntlets. Also, they left out the shell, which would have looked great with a wash.
I'm just here to remind everybody this company is too goddamned incompetent to make the Walker Krang compatible in *ANY* fashion with the Android Krang. Can't swap the Krang brains between modes of transport for more Krang-expression options; can't swap the tentacles between brains for more posing options. This company is too stupid to deserve to survive, imho.

They made terrible choices in the past, that's for sure, but from the reviews of the IDW turtles it seems they have improved and they are willing to listen.
I'm really looking forward to the IDW Turtles. Mine are POed from Amazon, but ETA is still a month off.

Imho, it's like asking a new car manufacturer to please add the ability to turn left. It's not something that anybody should have to learn on the job because it should be basic knowledge you have in order to get interested in doing it professionally in the first place. It's literally as stupid as making a Darth Vader figure that's a millimeter or two too big to fit into his TIE/Advanced cockpit.
For anyone on the fence, I picked the PX SDCC exclusives from a vendor at power con and while they have a lot of QC issues, they are still pretty good for the price point. With Neca inching closer and closer to the $40 range (and not doing these versions yet). These aren't bad for $20-$30. Plus they look damn good in pictures 😉
Watching at least 2 video reviews of the SDCC versions, I'm fine with the regular releases I have ordered. If I want sloppy, spotty washes thrown on the figures, I can do it myself for much less than TLS was asking.
Overall articulation does seem to be heading in the right direction, other than ACTUAL head articulation that is.
Does anyone remember what all was leaked for the IDW line from BST AXN?
- Shredder
- Bebop
- Rocksteady
- April
- Casey Jones
- 8 inch Slash
- Alopex
- Bonnie
- Jennika
- Metal Head
- Rat King
- City Fall Leonardo
- Elite Foot Clan
- Foot Assassin
I'm really looking forward to the IDW line and hope that we get some pictures of these figures especially Jennika, Alopex also Bonnie/Venus. I'm also really looking forward to the City Fall Leonardo as well.
Sorry, forgot Bludgeon was on the list, as well!
No Karai? Disappointing. I'm curious to see what Casey design they'll go with, if he's the design from Armageddon Game, that'll be pretty cool. His early looks are pretty boring.
