Seems my time as a Super7 customer is coming to an end

 Think about it: Playmates killed Classic TMNT... Mattel MAY or MAY not let Super7 touch Classic TMNT and only be relegated to 2003. And to be honest, the $65 price tag is making it harder to justify. Bishop, Baxter, Renet, Savanti Romero, Karai as Shredder, Fugitoid, and maybe Rat King would round up my wants... if they can work with Stan Sakai and get us 2k3 Usagi... I'd be happy.

I'd also be happy if they can use Turtles Forever.

Mirage Turtles, Human Rocksteady and Bebop... weird, I know...


And a peculiar cameo.


No need to say who...


I only want Yes Man and *MAYBE* Timestopper. The $65 price tag is really hurting the lines. It made me skip tigersharks.

Aside a redone Pumyra, I'm done with Thundercats.

GI Joe and Power Rangers are dead...

Is this line dead too? Dammit, I wanted at least Diana...

So yeah, seems like 2k3 TMNT MIGHT make me give some of my money to BBTS, because Super7 doesn't want me to give them money directly.

Other Ideas for FTC Playsets:

 Sadly, the Ring entrance is sold out at FTC... will try to get one if available.
But like the merch stand and media scrum playsets, I was thinking of other playsets FTC could do. 

News studio:
Why are you looking at me like that? It's a way for FTC use the stuff they own with some new stuff:
Modified announcer table with plug for channel logo (from 2-9)
2 fancy office chairs
4 TV lights
2 tv monitors for the announcer table
2 new cameras with stand
Small stand with green screen for the weather.

The set will come with one figure: The first of the Newsroom subline.

Anchorwoman:
Having the new blouse torso and blazer overlay in addition to the new skirt white skinned red haired repaint of the Tasha head using the lisa lower legs and feet. (Yes, it's a reference)

Newsroom figures:

Anchorman:
Talking Referee head with grey hair on announcer body.

Weatherman:
Announcer torso with short sleeves using the head of (fans) Eugene in blond.

Weatherwoman:
Using the Fan body with the blazer overlay, painting the torso with a blouse that shos cleavage and a hint of bra. Bra must be the same color as the green screen. The legs are painted as a pantsuit with lisa lower legs and feet. Head should be new and have a sultry look. Preferably dark skinned.

Male Editor:
New body: fat body with button up shirt. Long pants and shoes. New head... can be dark skinned.

Camerawoman:
Normal female body, painted like the Wrestling Crew Cameraman, New female head with cap on.

Female Editor:
Using the Female referee lower body with the upper body of the new anchorwoman and an orangey red haired Wrestling announcer head.

That concludes the Newsroom.
Now let's try another set.

Crime Corner:
FTC could totally make this set with Zero new parts by tossing the corner diorama, Hunter, Amber, a handgun, a mask, and the trigger hands... but that's too lazy for me... so I will do Repaints and add more stuff.

The Corner stays as it is. Using the Brad Body repainted with the MMA referee head with dyed beard in a neon pumk color for the criminal.

For the victim, Amber body in Blonde, light blue top and purple skirt.
In Addition to the gun, mask, and trigger hand for the crook, add:
Trash can
2×4 board
Pallet
Pipe

That way you have a more realistic corner diorama with junk and stuff.

Haunted House:
making a new Haunted House themed backdrop for the reversible backdrop diorama.
Add the stuff from the black coffin set, replacing the shovel for a rat. Toss in a druid coat for any of the normal sized adults to wear.   Add a repaint of the Ben sculpt: Brown hair, pink shirt, grey pants and blue sneakers. A redhead repaint of Kaylee, red hair, yellow shirt, lavender pants and shoes. If you want names for the kids Pete and Angie. 

Now let's try for more new stuff:

Weigh in:
For starters a backdrop like the Media Scrum, not in black. Maybe add a Podium, a Laptop, a brand new scale and using the Fan body with Lisa feet painted to look like wearing a bikini, add two models (light skinned and Dark skinned) new heads. Finish with two large towels. We can have boxing and MMA versions...


Front Desk: 
This is for the Law Enforcement Line
One for the police and one for the state trooper.
We start with the new front desk optional plexiglass panels, phone, dispatch radio, office chair. Each desk will be a different color.
Add the new Female cop (repaint available separately). Dark skinned woman for the cop, white woman for state trooper. 

Of course this opens up for new LEOs with melanin and introducing females to go with the front desks.

A third variation with different accessories could be made for paramedics/nurses. And it's a way to introduce nurses. 

Cardboard backdrops:
These could have non wrestling themes and come with figures/accessories.

Warehouse:
Day and night options.
1 side has the front and the other has the back.
Accessories:
Pallet
Barbed wire
Rolling board
Locker
Concrete block
2 oil drums

Cemetery:
Cemetery day and night
Mausoleum
Haunted, not haunted
Accessories:
Headstones 
Urns
Skeleton 

Underground fighting pit:
I meant this mostly as a reference to Bloodsport
But paired with the Figures Toy Company Steel Cage...
You get the idea...
