Remember how Playmates had killed NECA's Mirage TMNT line by flexing their Master License dick? Well, apparently, they killed Super 7's Classic TMNT run. Apparently, Playmates was demanding...
One Million Dollars, for Super7 to have access to the Vintage Roster BUT they couldn't be Vintage Accurate, because it intereferes with the lazy reissues (at times with inaccurate accessories), or their odd new "MOTU ORIGINS" inspired line. This rumor is CREDIBLE because this is not the first time Playmates has (ab)used their Master License power. It's a shame that Super7's incompetence, Vintage Purism, and Playmates massive dickery killed this line. But some Mattel disgruntled ex employee will probably blame me for it too.
So, where do we go from here now:
I barely modified the vintage inspired lists to remove Vintage elements and added some Playmates sucks type sentences.
If Super7 is stuck with 2k3, then my time with TMNT Ultimates is nearing its end.
Personally, I could.Accept a Vintage Inspired Redesign type of TMNT Line:
For example...
He's gonna say Pizzaface...
Pizzaface.
Make him more Mario Batali inspired. Changing the boot for a rubber clog, Ginger, face being a cross between Batali and Barth from You Can't Do That On Television... but it'll come at a price.
He would have to end up lookong a bit more pizza-like... not fully blown Pizza the Hut, but to have elements of cheese skin breaking down and revealing his sauce. Some brown spots of burnt cheese on his skin and stuff.
Use different leg attachments. I've mentioned the Pizza Peel as a replacement to the Pizza cutter. Though the Pizza cutter COULD be used without the pizza box (something that 3D printers can fix)
Walkabout would have to be reinvented completely and
But no outside media makes it harder for Walkabout.
I want to hope that these rumors are false, buuuuuuut seeing past Playmates history they might be true.
