** DOGPOUND, FISHFACE, NECA STUDIO TOUR , TARGET **

–>>  **Ol’ ally Newton at Infinite Hollywood has this on the newest of SHREDDER’S Mutant Creature features & METALHEAD ::

 

Back at Toy Fair 2012, there was a preview of some Ninja Turtles figures that weren’t released in the first wave. It included the two top hench mutants in the new Nickeloden cartoon, Dogpound and Fishface as well as a preview of Metalhead. At the time none of the three were final versions and their release date was unknown. Earlier this week, an avid TMNT fan over at the Tehcnodrome, Donatello19, spotted that they had been updated to “Coming Fall 2012” on the official Playmates website. I decided to reach out to my contacts at Playmates to see if this was true and if they were an official new wave or if they’d get mixed into the current case ratios.

 

The new figures will be mixed in with the other 9 figures and should be available on the website Fall of 2012.

 

I figured this was the case, but this confirms it. The figures will be added to the current case assortments and the series will be updated that way, just as the vintage figures were. Instead of doing a traditional “Wave 2”, these will be more like a Wave 1.5 type update. Be sure to check store shelves in the fall, probably around the time the new Nickelodeon cartoon debuts and of course, be sure to keep visiting Infinite Hollywood for reviews of all the TMNT toys!

It may help ease your pain  –  or maybe not .. but it will give you some insight on the inner workings of  this Fan-fave pop-culture  to plastic company and the figure making process.

The Super Strong Sewer Sportsman

VITAL LIFTISTICS:

Accessories: Turtle Shell Barbells, Bo Pole & Turtle Games Gold Medal!
Record Lift: 2000 Turtle Tons
Recommended Food: Anti-Foot Fiber
Best Bench Press: Flattened a park bench to under 2 inches

Ornery and oiled, Powerliftin’ Don’s comin’ on strong. And this wacky weightlifter’s got a Mutant message for all the lightweight wimps, “No pain, no pizza.” He’s the biggest and the bulkiest of the best in the Turtle Games – and he’s loaded down with massive Mutant muscle and tons o’ Turtle tone. It’s no problem for this all-American bulk boy to lift lead, ’cause he works out with his Turtle Shell Barbells. He’s ready and willin’ to clean ‘n jerk the Clan and clobber ’em with his power-packed punch, not to mention, win the Turtle Games Gold Medal. Nothing can stop this ripplin’ reptile, ’cause he’s in super sewer shape! Let the games begin!

The decal of Don’s number on the back seems to be consistent on ALL figures.

PORTRAIT OF SUPER-SWIMMIN’ RAPH
The Paddlin’ Party Player!

VITAL FLOATISTICS:

Accessories: Anti-Foot Flipper Fins, Kowabunga Kickboard, Sewer Snorkel & Turtle Games Gold Medal!
Total Career Laps: 30 Turtle Trillion
Dive: The Splinter Splash
Total Water Displacement: One Turtle Ton
Style: The Turtle Tread
Fastest Lap: .000001 seconds (there was a shark in the pool!)

This all-American amphibian can swim sewer circles around the foul floatin’ Foot. With his Kowabunga Kickboard under his arm and nature’s own wetsuit on his back, Super-swimmin’ Raph’s a popular pick for floodin’ out the Foot and the competition. He’s got the Foot divin’ for cover – underwater, that is. But, look out! No water-logged Foot Soldier stands a chance against Raph’s Anti-Foot Flipper Fins. This Foot flippin’, lap leadin’ hero may be wet behind the ears, but he’s never at a loss for air with his Sewer Snorkel. On land or sea, Super-swimmin’ Raph’s got what it takes to go for the Gold. Let the games begin!
