It's not just that Classics Bebop and Rocksteady are shorter than the turtles, they are physically less massive. They don't have the bulk they should have.
That quote from fwoosh is utter bull**** sorry... I was watching the cartoon the other day the episode where Krang gets his new body in the first season, there is a scene at the beginning that shows a side angle shot of Donatello pushing opposite Bebop a dumpster. Donatellos head goes up to about bebops belly, both were standing straight.
Agree
A rhino is larger than a human, wouldn't make any sense to make a mutated rhino the same size as a person
My logic says the mutagen took some box turtles and a rat into the size of humansThe problem is not that Bebop and Rocksteady are too small, the Turtles are too big. Playmates probably never had any intention of making any other figures when they first made the Turtles, so they just made them a tad over 6 inches. If they scaled Bebop and Rocksteady they would of been 7 inches and if they ever made Shredder, he would probably be 8 inches since he is taller than both Bebop and Rocksteady. Also in the Cartoon, Bebop is taller than Rocksteady.
Realistically, had they planned the line from the beginning, the Turtles should have only been like 4.5 inches.
Personally, I don't mind that they are all pretty much the same size. The vintage figures were like that too. I could understand all of the complaints if these were $250 Hot Toys figures, but they are not, they are $20 mass produced toys by Playmates based on an a 20 + year old cartoon. If someone is skipping these because of their height, honestly it's their loss.
Except he is not a mutated Rhino. He is a human that was mutated into a rhino. Under your logic, Splinter should only be 6 inches tall.
Has anyone seen these in Canada yet? Not in speciality shops, but in TRU. I've been trying to pop in now and again, not finding them. I have seen them at one collector shop for $34.99 each, not paying that much
Got my Bebop and Rocksteady from TRU and they packaging wasn't destroyed they look great.
There's a new classic turtle van?!
edit: Oh, it's just a reissue.
