One of my all-time favourite Peter Laird side-stories. ::
During a rest break from combat in the dirty barracks within the ZOGNEB ARZAK SYSTEM the overzealous ZAD and a small band of his fellow, young Triceraton Marines are gloating about their strength & might and the weakness of their mammalian enemies.
Ol’ Sergeant Zule soon puts a stop to the brave but naive bands’ smugness with a tale about when he was young Triceraton Marine and a vicious encounter & the hard lesson learned from facing an enemy mammalian URSID.
These are the first North American release of the same “LEGO & brick toy COMPATIBLE” figures sold in the TMNT 2″ Mini-Fig blind Bags overseas in such places like Australia – but this four pack DOES NOT include the collector cards that come with the bags.
The figures with the cards, Splinter, Kraang Droid, and the Foot Soldier mini figs are not available yet in North America just short of purchasing directly from overseas or thru’ a third party vendor.
Dogpound & Fishface mini-figs were spied at TOY FAIR 2013 as part of an apparent wave 2.
If you are not so much worried about the collector cards, and just want the figures of the Teens themselves without the guessing, stress and spending lots of money on the blind bags, this may be your best & direct way to get these minis. And if you get them with the video game, you’ll prolly be saving even more money.
approx. 5 x 7″, possibly very close to the dimensions of the original painting.
