February 17, 2018 by Amie Cranswick

Ahead of their official unveiling at the New York Toy Fair this weekend, Playmates Toys has released a first look at its new toy line for Nickelodeon’s upcoming animated series Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, which includes action figures, vehicles and a sewer lair playset; take a look at the official promotional images here…

Standing between 10.25” and 11” tall with 13 points of articulation, these Turtles are fully equipped and ready for battle. Each figure comes with their core translucent weapon accessories, ready to unleash a Ninja power beat down! Assortment includes: Raphael with Tonfas and Throwing Stars; Leonardo with Ōdachi sword and Throwing Stars; Donatello with side kick drone, Shelldon, Tech-Bo Staff and Throwing Stars; Michelangelo with Kusari-Fundo and Throwing Stars

Each action-posed, deluxe figure stands 5.5” tall, and is ready to take out the baddies with shell kickin’ ninja action. Set the Ninja in motion, and let go to activate deluxe flipping action! The Turtles let out an aaaaaaaction shout as they flip, and then land their flip with a signature Turtle weapon sound effect! Assortment includes: Raphael SideFlip Ninja Attack, Leonardo Backflip Ninja Attack, Donatello SideFlip Ninja Attack, Michelangelo Popup Ninja Attack

The Turtles rev up on their new Shell Hog motorcycles for some shell kickin’ Turtle action through New York City, and the realms below the streets, to take out any villains they encounter. Equipped with spring loaded projectiles, high or low attack seat adjustability, and the ability to connect to each other, the Shell Hogs pack a punch going into battle. Assortment includes: Leonardo’s Shell Hog with Exclusive Leonardo figure, Michelangelo’s Shell Hog with Exclusive Michelangelo figure

When the Turtles need to get to the action fast, Donatello builds a villain bustin’ Turtle Tank that can navigate through New York City, and the realms below, with all the fire power needed to kick some shell! The Turtle Tank group vehicle is 2 toys in 1, and can transport from the city to the lair and the hidden city that the Turtles discover.

First, in vehicle mode, the front cab opens and two Turtles can sit inside, driving the brothers into action. Then, Donatello’s removable lab rises up and serves as the mobile command headquarters as the Turtles spy and plan to defeat the baddies below. Equipped with spring loaded projectiles, the Turtle Tank is compatible with the Shell Hog vehicles and even fires them off when the Turtles need to get to the battle fast.

This massive “My Size” Sewer Lair Playset is the biggest TMNT action figure playset ever, standing 43″ tall! Disappear into the sewer from the NYC street level to discover where Splinter and the Turtles live and train. There are 4 levels of play to discover, 7 rooms, and 20+ features.

This EPIC deluxe playset is packed with features including: Splinter’s Dojo, Raphael’s Weight Training Room, Leonardo’s Rotating Weapon storage wall, Michelangelo’s arcade, the catapult Basketball hoop, hidden projectile launchers for villain invasions, rotating skateboard ramp, collapsing balcony, and so much more.

Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles follows Raphael, Leonardo, Donatello and Michelangelo on all-new adventures as they seek to unlock the mystical secrets of New York City. From the tallest skyscraper to the dankest sewer drain, the Turtles will encounter absurd new mutants and battle bizarre creatures all while enjoying their favourite slice of pizza. Tapping into mystic, ninja powers they never knew existed, the four brothers must learn to work together and navigate the perils of the modern age and hidden realms in order to fulfill their destiny to become a team of heroes.

Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles features the voice talents of Omar Miller (Ballers) as Raphael, Ben Schwartz (Parks and Recreation) as Leonardo, Josh Brener (Silicon Valley) as Donatello, Brandon Mychal Smith (You’re The Worst) as Michelangelo, Kat Graham (The Vampire Diaries) as April O’Neil and Eric Bauza (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles) as Master Splinter, and John Cena (Daddy’s Home 2) as Baron Draxum.
