I just realized something: a Total Anime rant:

 Crunchyroll is a huge reason why Jazwares has the Total Anime line... it has MHA, Spy × Family, Jujutsu Kaisen, Chainsaw man...

Well if Crunchyroll is involved, I would like to see characters from 2 Anime:

And:

Come on, don't tell me you didn't expect this?

Look for Ace Attorney all we need is Phoenix, Edgeworth and maybe the Judge and Gumshoe. 

For Shenmue all we need is Ryo, Lan-Di, Chai, Shenhua. 

Sure I would like more characters, but let's be realistic. I don't think most people would go for Nozomi, Joy, Tom, Ine-San, Fuku-San, Goro, Mark... yes, I just want a Ryo to ride a forklift

If not Playmates then who sbould do TMNT?

 That is the question: I don't see Figures Toy Company tackling a line of that Magnitude.

NECA already has the adult collectible market. I'm looking mainly at the "For kids" market.

That excludes NECA, Super7, BigBadWorkshop, Mondo, fuck it, even McFarlane. 

I'm gonna say it, I want McFarlane as far away from TMNT as possible.

Jazwares?

They make the AEW stuff Which is pretty good for the most part. They also did the Total Anime line, which seems to be veering towards purely becoming MHA... Gimme a Loid and Yor, dammit!

Could they handle TMNT? Maybe... personally I'd hope they'd lean into AEW scale or close to it so they could crosspollinate with accessories.

Jakks Pacific?

The ancient makers of WWF/WWE Toys. They know a thing or two about playsets. Some of their current toys show some creativity and fun.

Could they Handle TMNT? Maybe.ike I said with Jazwares, making the toys wrestling figure sized and accessories that could crosspollinate with wrestling would be optimal. I'm mainly looking at humans, which would help with the crosspollination among lines. Also, Jakks could do accessory packs and ease into smaller playsets.

Spin Master?

Hahaha no...

OK That's cool but no... Their Superman 6" figures have been meh. So, no... Thought. KRANG ANDROID BODY turning into a playset would be cool... No. 

Jada Toys?

Not gonna lie, it would be good Marvel Legends type figures, but the slow release schedule would be an issue for me. Vintage Toy Deluxe Redecos would irk me.

Hasbro?

Getting to the big leagues here. 

Fuck no! 

Hear me out. We'd get something like Marvel Legends where waves of turtles, Shredder, Rocksteady and Bebop are peppered with a fee deep cuts with less accessories 

Hasbro Pulse Turtle van with Irma, Hamato Yoshi, and Unmasked Casey Jones are locked on tiers. Then Retro waves inspired by Playmates, gaming waves with redecos based on The games with piss poor distribution. Seriously how can a pre-order be sold out?

Mattel?

A smidgen better than Hasblow. Same issues, but they would throw MOTU Compatible lines. One in the 6.5"-7" to be compatible with Master verse and WWE and a "cartoon collection" in the same scale as Origins. Vehicles and small playsets may or may not be a thing. And they may oversaturate the market with "basic, elite, and ultimate" figures. Though army building foot ninja with basic figures would be great.

 Now the main question: Does this mean that Super7 may be allowed to do old Playmates styled figures after 2027?

In fact I'm currently worried with Super7 So, I'd expect another price hike.
