Thanks to Forbidden Planet, the world has its first look at the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles vinyl figures Kidrobot’s been teasing on their Instagram page! From the solicitations Forbidden Planet has on their website it appears KR will be releasing a pretty diverse line of TMTN figures right from the start, which will include a TMNT Mini Figure Blind Box Series based on the classic ‘80s animated series, as well as a line of DIY TMNT 4”Mini Munnys and 7” vinyl figures of mutant villains Bebop and Rocksteady. You have to hand it to Kidrobot, they don’t mess around when they get their hands on a license.
The do it yourself TMNT Mini Munnys seem to be similar to the previously released Marvel DIY Mini Munnys, and will include stickers and one accessory so you can build your favorite Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle. There is Leonardo, Donatello, Michelangelo and Raphael to choose from. The TMNT Blind Box Series will include 10 different 3” mini figures of the four Ninja Turtles, Splinter, Shredder, Krang, Bebop, Rocksteady and a Foot Soldier. I’m just disappointed April O’Neal and Casey Jones weren’t included. Here’s hoping they show up as mystery chase figures!
Enjoy these little teaser photos until Kidrobot makes an official announcement. The Blot can’t wait to see more high-res pics! According to Forbidden Planet all of the figures seen here aren’t expected to hit store shelves until May 2014.
