This news made my day. The awesome TMNT Classic Collection is getting a series two, and it’s going to be Bebop & Rocksteady. It’s kind of surprising that the next series will only be two figures, but they picked the two I wanted most. I’m sure Playmates just wants to gage how people will buy non-Turtle figures in this line before they dive in and make Shredder, Splinter, April, and Krang.

I can’t wait to see the sculpts of these figures. The classic line really nails the design, colors, and fun of the 80s show, and these two characters should look great done in that style. I hope we get some big, ridiculous guns too.

We should get to see these guys next month at Toy Fair (how I wish I was going), so we won’t have to wait too long to get a look.

Thanks to our friend Cody at Crooked Ninja for the heads up.

  • I still don’t have any of the classics figures. I was unsure if I wanted them, but the more I see them the more I like them. I can’t wait to see some images of Bebop and Rocksteady.

    • I have the four Turtles, but that’s it. They’re still in the packaging. (I don’t particularly care for their faces.)

      • I bet they’ll at least pop up as a cameo of some sort.

  • What I’d really like to know is if we’re going to see Bebop & Rocksteady crop up in the new show somehow.

    I’m excited to see these. I’m also excited for Leatherhead, Baxter Stockman, and Mousers in the Nickelodeon line. There’s also a Rat King listed, but I did some digging and apparently the Rat King in the new cartoon is going be some ghost-faced goth dude. Don’t know if I’ll follow them down that path.

    • Yeah I’ve seen some concept art for that. Strange choice.

  • I’m really surprised they didn’t include at least Shredder. I haven’t picked up any of these Classics yet, but I’ll probably pick up a Be-Bop figure at least.
