These have been seen before I think, but they have actually been released now.

There are also turtles and terrapins.

Damn those frog minis are freaking awful.

The turtles on the other hand are quite nice, I really like the one carrying the drum above his head.

Yeah, those frog mini's do nothing for me. :puke:
I really hope any future official or unofficial Slann figs look nothing like those. :x

Are you having a laugh? The frogs look fantastic with their big froggy eyes and mouths!

Eureka are Australian aren't they - do they have a UK distributor?

I hope I'm not the only one old enough to wonder what those turtles would look like with coloured bandannas and ninja weapons :-?

I dont know........If i put a bandanna on four of those turtle critters i think i might have the makings of the "Teenage Muntant Ninja Turtles" i think they could make great blitzers.

I will give them the skill, "backflip + kick your ass"
Followed by "dauntless cus my big pointy sword" skill

Loving the Turtles isn't a sign of being old. There was a revival of the series in 2003, and tbh, it's superior to the original. I should know, I get to watch it with the children.

And I'm not ashamed to admit I enjoy it.

@Ogrestan - Darkson was talking about the frog minis, not the turtle ones. ;)

My son and I have most of the DVDs of that series, and i'm sure he isn't ashamed to admit that. :wink:

New CGI Movie looks like it is going to be great as well.

Does look like it'll be good. But I think TMNT2K3 has become the 'definitive' Turtles story for me (excluding Fast Forward which just feels like an extended filler season).

I've really come to enjoy the foreshadowing, intelligent plots and hard edge to the show. Plus it helps that Mikey spouts out film quotes on a regular basis. It always brightens my day up explaining which movie they're from when I start laughing and it's not apparent why (as obviously they're too young to have watched some of the movies quoted.)
