So many conflicting emotions on this review of the Playmates "remastered" turtles set! Playmates, please step very cautiously if you're going to try to make this work. Please just listen to the feedback on this from me and the fans. I said, please, so you have to listen now.

    Grown man getting worked up over turtle toys... we live in special times.
  • @brazilforreal1
    Acne scarred turtles ! Well, since they're teenagers...I think it's accurate 😂
  • The texture and ankles are brutal. Also Ralph looks like he has a broken jaw. Playmates gonna Playmates
  • @Nediablo
    Leo and Donnie having swapped heads + shoulder pins + wonky Raph + THOSE ankles + Cottage cheese skin = SUPER easy pass!
  • @VexNToys
    The texture is a nitpick for me but the ankles are a dealbreaker.
  • Not sure if someone has made this joke yet, but these are "if you buy Super7 Ultimates on Wish" turtles.
  • @jeffwhite2280
    New Playmates 40th Anniversary Turtles. We took the asphalt texture from the roof stands and applied it to their skin! Buy ‘em now.
  • @N013GS
    Playmates Last Ronin figure had alot of articulation.
  • @Optimus24Turtle
    That Raphael definitely looks like his eyes are off center for sure.
  • Everyone has known Hatter is sponsored by all of the toy companies. That is how he got rich, duh.
  • @MIRLZY
    Never in the history of my collecting experience have I went from so hyped FOMO to completely not giving a shit. The texture killed these
  • @knuclear200x
    "I wish the 80's toys were more articulate and cheaper" "🐵🐾"
  • For 13 bucks each these are a HOMERUN! No other company would give us this much for 13 bucks. Honestly I feel the issues are very nipicky. If this was a hasbro product these would be 25+. You mentioned origins several times and those go for 20 bucks. To me this is the best value of the year for very solid action figures
  • I can look past the textured skin and the rotating ankles, but a double-sided flail? Oh my goodness! Oh my goodness! I think we found a worse weapon than the nunchucks! 😮
  • @NolynVang
    I think kthey should've gave then the last ronin articulation with the double joints
  • @aarontimbol
    The cart shaking and wheel speed on the floor really added to the urgency! Thanks for the review!
  • I agree with all the criticism but still think they're worth picking up. Flawed but worth the asking price. At $13, you're getting your money's worth. Hasbro would be charging you $24.99 and telling you it's a "Deluxe" figure because of all the accessories.
