–>> Original & basic, limited edition 8″ JUMBO LEO vinyl figure from Nickelodeon’s booth at SDCC 2015. A SCALED-UP version of the original 3″ vinyl LEO. This particular design is based off the skateboard painting Tokka did in turn based off Joe Allard’s illustrative design for the vinyl character itself. 
The broken deck piece was also given to Allard as a gift in California in July 2015 in regards and honor to all his stellar hard-work for Loyal Subjects.
☠ ☠
All decor on the jumbo fig exaggerates the original deck image even more. The katanas are able to enter Leo’s frontal lobe with relative ease. Also an abdomen “seppuku” wound allows for the inserten and extration of the swords. 4 Ninja-Star “Shuriken open-wounds” allow for the stars to be inserted and removed into the back of his noggin. left ankle, right arm, and the upper-back of his shell -just above his scabbard.
The hole in the back of the shell for the scabbard has been “roughened-up” to add a little more restraint so that the piece doesn’t fall out as easily. ~ t

–>> Slight rehash,re-release, re-gifting of the 2004 4kids/ Funimation release of <a href=”https://www.flickr.com/photos/terrible2z/3123818843″ target=”blank”” TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES :: “Michelangelo’s Christmas Rescue” – the mix of bare-bones episodes from the 2003 series is OK, but is short by one compared to the ’04 release. A good stocking-stuffer for the kids tho’ if the ’04 version was nothing but a ghost of Christmas past.
☃ ☃
The cover art is style-guide work i’d previously been unfamiliar with. 4kids alumni Khary Randolph confirmed he DID NOT supply these images to Nickelodeon. Another 4kids style-guide contributor, Mirage Studio’s Michael Dooney may have been the artist behind these illustrations ( they have that vibe ), no confirmation on that tho’. They may have been newer style-guide pieces commissioned by Viacom themselves.

Our ..Friend MIRAGE & IDW TMNT alumni, Sophie Campbell is asking her fans to vote for her in CA’S best of 2015 ::
ToyArk reports that **MONDO has a creative gift idea, featuring a BLANK limited run of Mike Mitchell’s 9-inch “Lil’ Mikey” vinyl figure.ToyArk also reports on Mondo’s latest update with a video – ” Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles – First Turtle Vinyl Figure We get a look at the articulation on each version. They show the swap out heads and the packaging.”
Via GGM’s HERO – –
Suspecting these will make it to a North American release as well to parallel the larger box releases, no guarantees – – but Tokka predicts an affordable price range of $ 3 – 7 like the similar “CALL OF DUTY” ,HALO , ,MINIONS, HELLO KITTY, “Sponge Bob Squarepants” blind bags currently available & the past few years.
Mini-figure madness continues with Diamond Select’s “Vision Quest” Wave 3 of TMNT Minimates 2 packs popping online and in Toys R Us Stores. Great stocking – stuffers !! !! ~ t

–>> FUNKO’s POP VINYLS are all the rage clear across the planet.
Look at one fun you can have with the DIY BLANK POPs in both male and female forms. TMNT Ally : Dave Garcia and Monica Sharp’s cult indy comic classic Character PANDA KHAN was built on the female D.I.Y.
The Tech Decks are rather to scale to the POPS and seems to make a fun accessory for Li Yang here.
**P.K. here was built upon the D.I.Y. POP FEMALE Blank.

FUNKO spin-off; Vinyl Sugar still has last month’s ..
Hopefully an accessory pack or other option with alternate versions of the exclusive versions of the accessories made available with MONDO exclusive Turtles will be made available in the future. The exclusives go out TOO quickly alienating fans really wanting the accessories. We’ll keep you posted on this.
Tokka’s schedule remains jam-packed and imperfect..but regular posts are starting to become somewhat more consistent again. Thanks for your patience and support. More soon.
