TMNT Wave 13 speculation rant:
By the looks of it I'll be missing out on wave 12 because Super7 is once again messing up shipping to Puerto Rico. There's no way in Hell I'll pay nearly $200 for a Michelangelo and Donatello. I thought they had fixed the issue when the last Thundercats wave had USPS shipping options to PR... Surprise!! They removed it. Oh well.
- What I'd like
- What I'd expect
- What I'd hate to see
- Merdude
- Drunken Master Raphael
- Hose'm down Don
- "Mirage April" (blue and brown April 1 with corrected Skin color) swapping her reporter stuff for Mousers.
- Irma
- Journey to the West Donatello (son wukong)
- Lt. Leo (yes, I'd give him UC Raph's coat and take a pic to show Cam Clarke on Facebook.)
- "TOON" Rocksteady (same rocksteady we got but swappable heads, new bandolier with wooden sword also, his skin tone is a bit lighter.)
- Napoleon Bonafrog
- Game of Death Michelangelo
- Heavy Metal Raph
- "Mirage" Shredder (same Shredder with new Oroku Saki head, new soft goods Mirage tunic)
- Shredder Elite: a foot soldier with new head and a halberd. Everything else is standard foot soldier weaponry and Shredder's soft goods cape.
- Street Fight Raphael: reusing Rocker Leo's body with new shins and Rappin' Mike feet, we put 2 Raph Heads, his Sai, Mike's Pizza box, and Casey's bats. (He's a reference to Beat'em-up games like Double Dragon)
- Metalhead Donatello: Metalhead repainted in Donatello colors with new twirling staff for his arm attachment.
- Baxter Stockman (African American) repaint Fly Baxter as an African American like his comic book counterpart.

Who are the next 4 2k3 TMNT figures?
We only know that they're Toon Based, which could also mean Black and white First appearance variants AND 1987 Turtles are possible:

It came from the Toy Chest: This Reaper is THE WORST
A Super7 Original, Robot Reaper is part of The Worst, a series of weird misfits that apparently are The Worst. I have nothing to say here. It's a robotic Grim Reaper that has a Gameboy Color ersatz and a robotic Endoskeleton.

RR: Once I insert my diSk in your computer You Will Die... With an I and not a Y, before you ask. Nick: Sure, try to insert that 1982 Floppy on this 1990s PC. *Notification sound* |
Finally A Zack Snyder film is good for something other than mockery and ridicule.

RR: Perverted Human! Nick: What!? Irma sent the pic, not me! That makes HER the pervert! Can I ask you a favor? Pass me the tissues and turn around. I need to rate the picture. |

Welp! 2k3 Turtles are here and
I dunno, guys...
They don't look BAD but they don't feel like $55 figures.New Zelda game revealed... NOW it's truly a Legend of Zelda
As in you play as the Eponymous Zelda for the first time since the awful CD-I games
The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom looks like it might be part of the Link's Awakening series.
What the trailer doesn't show is that Zelda now steals bed designs and copies them to move around. Copy a rock to kill a Moblin now you copy the moblin so he fights FOR you.
To say I'm disappointed is an understatement. First time in ages we get to play as Zelda and she has a shitty gimmick. I half expected to see her use some goddesses magic. Maybe using a rapier (like twilight princess) and Light Arrows (WW) not a hyper watered down TotK gadget mechanic. Thank goodness for the MvC Collection.
My condolences to Keifer Sutherland
While I'm not a fan of the guy, especially with his awful performance as Big Boss; I can put aside my dislike of the guy to give him my condolences. His father, Donald Sutherland has passed away.

Capcom is doing something Awesome for Switch and PS4:
Ancient Japanese variants the rant
Just as I did with Mikey and the Beach Episode variants, I need to tackle Japanese variants for Leo the Sewer Samurai.
It came from the Toy Chest: I want to speak to the He-Man-ager
Habemus Thunder Punch He-Man from the New Eternia Line. My favorite Vintage Variant has a Masterverse figure, so let's check it out.
These are also the first ICftTC pics with the new phone, so quality might've changed.

What if 13 ghosts of Scooby Doo was an anime?

2003 TMNT WAVE officially teased
And the blocky cartoon accurate bodies is a thing... damn! Hopefully these will be $55 AND I won't be raped in the preorder via S7... assuming I'm able to.
Obviously, I'll try to get the turtles, Casey Jones, April O'Neil, Splinter, Shredder, Two Foot Ninja, Is baxter stockman, Agent Bishop, And Hun.
Now if they make the Justice Force... I'll bite.
I'm thinking I might make the 2k3 Turtles the MuTeens universe Turtles if they are larger than the 1987 turtles. Unfortunately we have to wait until next week for the official sale. Guess I won't be buying any thundercats.
The FF Tactics Remaster rumors have returned
If true, I'm SUPER Excited. The first time this happened was in 2021. I have a history with Final Fantasy Tactics. The game broke me and made me feel like a dum-dum. The PSP enhanced port was a bit better but added something far more broken than Orlandeau (Orlandu in my days)... Balthier. Man, that dude is broken AF. It's like Mustadio on steroids!
A remaster sounds nice if we got upgraded sprites and backgrounds...
What we need is a Remake of Tactics in the same vein as the rumored FFIX Remake.
I kinda ranted on things I want for this remaster. Most of them are making Cloud playable. But a Remake can allow us to expand the game a bit:

It came from the Toy Chest: Crossfire
I lost the pics I took for game night and guess what: Crossfire is a once assembled you can't put it back in the box. I hate that. So I had to throw away the box, that's a minus. Then we have a bigger issue:
The ball bearings used. A Google search informed me that 9mm bearings are the ones used on the Hasbro version of Crossfire. I mentioned this, Because the game being so frantic, Will lead to losing some ball bearings, if you are playing near couches, Or shaggy carpets.
![]() |
Not mine, but this is the one I have. |
I've had my TRY Exclusive version ofCrossfire roughly before Toys.R Us closed down on Puerto Rico. Since I was strongly fighting depression, My social life was rather non existent. Right now I'm struggling to get a bit better, but that's not the point here. Recently, I've been socializing a little bit. Yay progress! First it was Jumanji, now it's Crossfire.
Real life is not as exciting. It's a bit slower and having to stop to look for fallen bearings is no fun. I tried using the commercial music as a way to make the game more exciting it period it's failed horribly. My friends forced me to use headphones and keep the advertising music to myself!
The object of the game is to get 3 goals on your opponent. BUT the Hasbro version of the game has an issue with the pucks. They jam and the bearing inside them doesn't spin fluidly. And you just end up pushing the pucks away with little to no spin at all. Some folks recommend that you buy vintage Milton Bradley Crossfire (preferably incomplete) and use the Milton Bradley pucks on the new Hasbro version.
Don't use the Milton Bradley ball bearings on the Hasbro shooter because they are not made for the same size bearings.

Thubdercats wave 11: meh
Berbils are coming!
Super7 just dropped a teaser and here it is!
There's like 3 main Berbils so expect to spend $165 plus S&H on them throughout the next 3 years.
Who are the other 3 characters? Here are my top guesses:
Tuska Warrior to fill the odd character out.
LJN Tygra and LJN Jackalman round up the wave.
But let's try something with a Lunatak instead:

The infamous Beach Variants list
I joked about this on a previous rant, so this is not a serious list (aside maybe Beach April and Irma) but boredom has struck and I need to ramble about something, dammit! There will be no Michelangelo as these are supposed to be companion pieces to Sewer Surfing Mike. Oh no, I feel like I'll make companion piece to all 4 disguised Turtles...
