I think I made one of these already... but I can't find it. In any case, I'm bored AF, so...
Using the new Vintage TMNT Ultimates! Format, we have:
Low new tool variant/redeco
New Variant
Vintage Variant
New character (vintage or otherwise.)
I will do, like always, a few different set of lists trying to cover bases. (What I'd like, what I'd hate, etc.) For these I'm assuming that Super7 figured out how to reestablish USPS as a shipping option for pre-orders. (That way I can preorder half the wave via Super7 and half via BBTS)
This is the SHUT UP AND TAKE MY.MONEY! Wave:
Low New Tool Variant Redeco:
Rasputin the Mad Frog:
Body: Genghis Repaint
New pieces:
Archery hands
Necklace
*Bow and Arrow if the Splinter Bow can't be used.
Super7 Buy the whole wave accessory:
Bomb tip Arrow and winking head.
New Variant:
Drunken Master Splinter:
Basically same old Splinter but with a Chinese top inspired by the Drunken Master movies.
Perhaps gove him a new closer to Cartoon Accurate head.
Removable Jackie Chan Wig
He needs Drunken boxing hands
Sake gourd
Super7 buy the whole wave accessory:
Flocked Toon Splinter head
Vintage Variant:
Don the Undercover Turtle:
Here we have to do A LOT of changes to avoid pissing off Playmates. First change soft goods coat. It would still have the tear on the bicep area, but it would also have sewn elbow reinforcement mimicking his pads. The reason for the soft goods coat is for the new utility belt underneath with liefeldian pouches, sheath for his knife.
Heads:
Same as UC Raph
Accessories:
Expandable bo staff both expanded and retracted
Modified UC Raph gun with removable flag
UC Raph Briefcase and Goggles
Peter Laird mask
Kevin Eastman mask
Super7 buy the whole wave accessory:
Kojak styled head with a Lollipop sucking mouth and a hand holding a lollipop
New character:
Pizzaface:
One head has to be like the Prototype with the siamese twin head attacking the main head. The second head would be based on Lawson's art of Pizzaface for a strip. If a third head is possible, Pizza the Hut concept head should be used.
For colors, the Prototype should be the inspiration BUT the Apron should be soft goods for the sake of articulation and appeasing Playmates.
The usual hands in addition to the Playmates tossing right hand.
Accessories:
Throwable pizzas
Cleaver
Pizza peel
Pizza cutter with squished pizza box stand
Super7 buy the whole wave accessory:
Pizza Box Shield (fully painted but changed sculpt to a shield shaped Pizza like vintage Domino's. )
Next is: OK, that's a Cool wave, not exactly what I wanted, but I think I'll take most of it!
Low new tool variant/Redeco:
Mirage Shredder:
Same Shredder we got in wave 10 but in Mirage red with a soft goods red tunic.
Give him an extra Oroku Saki head
Super7 buy the whole wave accessory:
Bloody Oroku Saki head.
New Variant:
Down Unda Leatherhead:
Leatherhead with a more Cartoon Accurate head. New necklace and vest new crotchpiece with different belt with a sheath for his Knoife.
His vest and hat would be styled after Crocodile Dundee but in Leatherhead colors

Super7 buy the whole wave accessory:
Repainted Mousers broken Ooze canister in Toon Purple
Vintage Variant:
Heavy Metal Raph
As close as possible to the vintage toy. Obviously there will be some changes to avoid PMB (Playmates bitching)
Normal head, a Dee Snider inspired head.
For accessories his Bass and Sai Drumsticks.
I wanted to give him a Drumkit but it would be too much for S7...
Super7 buy the whole wave accessory:
The Dee Snider inspired head with a different paintjob
New Figure:
Wyrm:
First he's going to need a lot of painted details.
The real challeng is articulation on the tentacle.
NO BENDY WIRES! I believe they're called cup and ball joints
Super7 buy the whole wave accessory:
A repaint of the Mallet with different color splatters.
Now for the This is weird as hell, but OK...
Low new Tooling/Redeco:
Valentine's Michelangelo:
This one is a little cheat since he's a new Variant, but he literally is a new back shell with wings and new Archery hands.
Taking Sewer Surfin tongue head and Rappin Mike hatless head on the Standrard Mikey body with the new winged Shell. Using Splinter's Bow and Arrow and Nunchucks on rope and we're done.
Of course this opens up a Holiday Turtles with say Memorial Day Leonardo (I will find a way to get my Lt. Leo.), Fourth of July Raphael, and Easter Donatello. I want to make a Halloween Irma with a Family Friendly Slutty costume... and a St. Patrick's Day April. But another rant for another day.
New Variant:
Cyber Shredder:
Essentially Pre-making Chrome Dome but with some alternate robotic Shredder parts. (Shoulder, wrists, hands, and shins)
Taking cues from the Metal Mutant Shredder helmet (it's from the OVA and toy)
Accessories:
Chrome Dome sword belt
Chrome Dome Swords
Backpack with cape that plugs into the back (where CD's wings would plug in)
Ethernet Spear
Super7 buy the whole wave accessory:
Swords in translucent red and silver painted hilts.
Vintage Variant:
Farmer Don: (aka Northampton Don)
Mostly inspired by the Vintage Playmates figure... But changes are required:
Much smaller Corncob pipe
Redesigned trucker hat
Alternate head without hat.
The pads would be Reused from wandering Leo, in Don Purple. I'd change the knick-knacks in his pockets...
Hand with sculpted handkerchief. (To wipe off sweat)
Accessories:
Scythe
Hoe
Scarecrow with stand (a wooden cross with a soft goods coat, pumpkin head, and straw hat)
Super7 buy the whole wave accessory:

Super7 buy the whole wave accessory:
Repainted Magic Carpet with flight stand.
Now I want to try The Worst! No, not that The Worst! I mean
In other words, a wave I'd HATE! For a weird reason
Low new Tooling/Redeco:
Toon Rocksteady:
Same Rocksteady we got in toon colors and 3 new accessories in addition to his standard accessories and Guerilla Gorilla's knife:
Wide C Grip Hands to hold the GG knife, bandolier with sheathe for both his Knife and GG's.
Super7 buy the whole wave accessory:
"Wooden" version of the GG knife (basically an unpainted brown GG knife)
New Variant:
Hip Hop Guerilla Gorilla:
Guerrilla Gorilla in Knee length Cargo pants and a soft goods T-Shirt with an old school Nickelodeon show... thinking one of the Legends of the Hidden Temple Team T-shirts. WithVekcro on the back like Mattel WWE T-shirts for easy tearin' apart. Various gold chains and a Gorilla sized hat would complete the look.
Now for the weapons and other accessories:
Gorilla sized Boom Box
Pair of UZIs
Opened Cardboard box for breakdancing (hiding a lazy Susan styled piece so GG can spin.)
Super7 buy the whole wave accessory:
Gold UZIs
Vintage Variant:
Ninja Knockin'Bebop:
Bebop in a Vintage toy inspired Ninja outfit but with some changes to avoid PMB.
We can reuse the Bebop torso with new Ninja Gi overlay. To make it different from playmates, Torn sleeves (Think Ryu from Street Fighter)
Instead of a yellow Karate belt, let's give him a rope belt. His left armguard should be changed to a foot Soldier styled armguard. I'd also make his Purples a bit greater.
Heads:
Masked
Unmasked with a Foot Clan headband
Accessories:
Bebop sized Ninjato
Kanabo
Bebop sized 4 point Shuriken (×3)
Bebop sized Kunai (×3)

Super7 buy the whole wave accessory:
Extra set of Bebop sized Shuriken and kunai.
New Figure:
Chote: (formerly known as Shogun Shoate)
For accessories his swords and strappable Samurai armor to give him a Shogun Shoate inspired look. The armor parts consist of the armor and the straps. This is for the buy the whole wave accessory.
Super7 buy the whole wave accessory:
Vac Metal versions of the armor bits to swap the normal armor for the shiny armor.
The reason this wave is the worst is because these are oddities I'd buy on a whim, but an entire wave is asking a bit too much. But I can do more Crazy waves:
Here comes the Estrogen Wave!
A wave of pure females:
Warning! Nefty is going to Cheat!
Low New Tooling/Redeco:
Aska:
New parts: Head, lower legs:
Using the Ninja April Torso, Arms, Crotch "boots" and April 1.0 Feet. We have all the parts for Aska.
For accessories, the wakizashi and Kunai from Sewer Samurai Leo. Would be the most basic stuff needed. If they want to toss a Playmates Mitsu head, since Aska was supposed to be Mitsu at one point... but I'd save that head for somewhere else.
Super7 buy the whole wave accessory:
Winking head.
New variant:
Ninja Thief Lotus Blossom:
Using Karai's body with a new crotchpiece and Neck overlay (basically a turtleneck) , we complete the body for Lotus.

Masked Ninja head
Repaint of PM Mitsu head since that's what Playmates would've done.
For accessories:
Karai's weapons.
New Lotus Flower
New Foot Scrolls (×4)

Toon Irma:
It would be a vanilla Irma in Toon outfit and Colors.
Heads:
Normal Irma
Bandana badass Irma
Ditzy expression Irma
I have a few Irma Rants coming. They'll be more detailed on what I want on her. But basocally soft goods clothing because plastic skirts suck. Also the spot goods allow for a later variant release with the Playmates outfit.
Super7 buy the whole wave accessory:
Ooze Irma head. The ditzy expression head with globs of GITD paint all over her face and hair as in she got sprayed with Ooze.
NOT REMOTELY WHAT I MEANT!

Gas Mask in the style of the "Are you My Mummy?" Kid from Doctor Who... or Psycho Mantis.
Sunglasses (now this is a Cam Clarke Reference).

Open Mouth
Vintage styled

3× Snake whip
(Vintage pose, mid swing, twirling. Yes it's a Castlevania reference)

Now let's try to make what I'd EXPECT Super7 to make:

Same Ray as w5, but with the recolor I mentioned.
Fishsticks is Orange with a white hat.
Starfish is pink
Gun has inverted colors

Double headed trident (yes, it's a reference)

Wrist mounted blade in blue translucent plastic.
New Character:

Using the Slash Body with new heads, arms, hands, and feet. We complete the body.

Full open mouth head

Donuts to sub for Slash's shutiken and also a reference to Secret of the Ooze.
Caparace shield as a reference to Manhattan Project.
Slash's sword and crooked knife
Super7 buy the whole wave accessory:
Toxic breath effect that plugs to open mouth head.
Tokka would get a Cool Ice GITD Redeco as a nod to Turtles in Time with toxic Ice breath being added to the accessories.
This is a "crappier" what I'd expect Super7 to do wave:
Low New Tooling/ Redeco:
Elite Guard:
Foot Soldier body with new head and Shredder cloth cape based on the Shredder Elite Guard.

Shredder Rack weapons

Vintage Variant:
Ravishing Reporter April:
As always a few changes to avoid PMB. The first change is the wording on the name.
Second change:
Soft goods clothing.
The skirt is for articulation reasons. She will have shorts underneath to avoid panty shots. She would also lose the anklets.
The soft goods jacket WOULD NOT BE MADE OF PLEATHER. That stuff disintegrates if you look at it wrong.
Heads:
Cardback art inspired
Judith Hoag hairstyle
Paige Turco Hairstyle.
Accessories:
Camera
Microphone Baton collapsed
Microphone Baton extended
Handgun
Purse
Sai (reference to 1990 movie)
News notes

New figure:
Merdude:
He'd mostly look like the Playmates toy but would come packaged with a Toon inspired head (no patch) hos second head would be the Toon head woth patch and angrier expression.
For accessories:
Trident
Swordfish
Edgy 90s Hooked hand (it's his normal hand painted to look like a stump while holding a big hook. Mikey did it)
Super7 buy the whole wave accessory:
Hook hand painted to look like Merman's hand hasn't been painted by Mikey.
Last but not least the worst wave I think Super7 can come up with.
Low new Tooling/Redeco:
Toon Krang:
Essentially W5 Krang without painted veins and sturdier bubble walker legs in various shades of grays, blacks, and silver. No new accessories.
Super7 buy the whole wave accessory:
Vanilla Krang in GITD Pink Plastic.
New Variant:

Picture Vanilla Donatello with a Futuristic Armor covering his Shell and Plastron in Metallic Green for the Shell and Gold for the Plastron. The armor has ports for various weapons. He sports a Purple Utility belt with a D shaped Buckle that is also a bladed knuckleduster.
One of the heads should be reminiscent of Storage Shell Don, the other should be reminiscent of talking Donatello.

2× escrima sticks that plug to the sides of his shell (also they can be turned into a Bo)
Spear tip and Axe tip that plug on the back of his shell AND the Escrima sticks

Super7 buy the whole wave accessory:
GITD Pink Umbrella
New Figure:
General Traag:
Since Playmates is being a little bitch about Super7 copying vintage accuracy, is this a reasonable compromise?
For a second head I'd add a close to playmates head while keeping this as the "default" head.
The only Advantage is that it can facilitate a new Granitor.
For accessories: Enlarged Foot Soldier Blaster, Rifle, Knife, the Shredder's Revenge weapons and call it a Day.
Super7 buy the whole wave accessory:
I-beam or steel girder fragment in GITD Pink Plastic
There you have it. I have some honorable mentions, but I'll save those to another rant
