No arguments there 90's playmates > & the 200X turtles line was great, ignoring the shitty action features on non turtle characters.

I never really paid too much attention to that line of turtles though having just googled them I see where you're coming from

The sculpts were ace, loads of accessories (most of which work nicely with the nick turtles) not too many silly turtle variants (mattel should take notes ) but way too many spring loaded body parts & collapsing action features.

If it's not in the way it's ok, sadly that's rarely the case
Here are reviews of the Usagi & Gen figures with some nice pics of the shitty action features.

Typical IMF you always deal with those that come first
Yeah I prefer the Usagi from the original series. Cannot fucking wait for a classics version

I prefer the 200x version only because it's closer in style to Sakai's art & we have a Gen. If we do get a classics Usagi it should resemble this:

This toyfair preview was on youtube, no classics but new mousers, Leatherhead, a new Flip open playset & what looks like an improved shredder & Rat King

I don't know if I like the zombiesqe Rat King redesign yet, Unmasked Shredder looks nice I'm not sure if he has knee joints.
