TMNT's are awesome, but please paint the masks the right colours, four leo's is a cloning spree gone mad!

You have no idea how much I'm grinding my teeth here. For those who don't know, the original color images of the Turtles had them all wearing red masks. I'm sure the Commander knows this and is just yanking my chain. Consider me rattled.

By the way, I think the first full color images of the Turtles was the cover of the Palladium RPG. I could be wrong though. Does anyone know for sure?

I'm still not happy with the photos I took yesterday, so here are some I just shot. Hopefully these are an improvement.

Slick.  I think that Hershey, Cal and the skysurfer (whose name escapes me right now) are my faves.

Consider me rattled.

I nearly flew into a nerdrage myself, before I saw your response

And yes, I can definitely see Dredd chasing mutant turtles around the Big Meg.

Im still waiting for some decent 28mm TMNT.   Some day...

(Shrugs his shoulders and hides he's Eastman and Laird TMNT & OS rulebook)...

Don't know what you mean...

Anyway I think that the first colour print, was the cover of the comic not the RPG ruleset, I'll have a dig around.

NERD-RAGE LESsening.

I do color flats on the new TMNT comic and even in the new series they all wore red at the beginning. But Splinter's Christmas gift to all of the turtles were there own colors and a pair of sai for Raph. Any of you who are fans of the Mirage TMNT should have a look at IDW's version, it's pretty solid. And the color flats are impeccable.

Those early turtles minis are still a lot of fun. Dark Horse Miniatures if I remember correctly. All cast in super squishy lead.

[Michka]

Thank you for all the nice replies. I'm having lots of fun getting out these old miniatures and spiffing them up.

Funny you should mention the squishy lead. While I was cutting the integral base off Leonardo his right leg snapped off. I was just about to curse a blue streak when I remembered these are twenty-seven year old miniatures. A bit of brittleness is to be expected.

 About time Peter.What happened to the vehicle you were on with?

[trynda1701]

We all hate you!

Great paint jobs! And yes, the Turtles would have a great time running rings around the Judges!

[Michka]

Had a few more minis re-based that I wanted to add to the thread.



The figures on each end are Grenadier Cyberpunk figures. The middle guy is the Gorilla Gangster from Mongoose.

Great bunch of minis!
Cannot believe this game never was popular where I live

[James Holloway]

Man, I love the Roy-Batty-ness of the guy on the right with the long coat. Lovely old figures and very nice, vibrant paintjobs to go with them. I like that you've gone with a darker, more muted palette for the baddies to make them distinct from the very bright and colourful Judges. I mean, good(?) guys bright, bad guys dark, it's traditional, and it really looks great here.

[Bubbles]

Do you think you'll be gettin any inspiration from the new dredd movie coming out

We really do need Doug to recast these from the moulds, they are timeless, (especially for me anyway the guy on the right, so matrix and Deus EX yum!)

Lovely PJ's mate sorry was gushing over the minis!

Judge Dredd vs Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles?  If it's published as a Turtles story, they make Dredd look foolish.  If it's published as a Dredd story, the Turtles end up dead, in the Iso-cubes, or deported to the Cursed Earth where they are last seen being cooked and eaten by muties.
