Playmates Vintage Rereleases

At least (in my defense) I didn't actually own it as a kid. I'm sure kid me would have figured it out playing with it. I just got it for the first time about 10 years ago and decided it would make a better Neutrino car even if it had wheels so I just hung it up and there it has stayed. Looks much better now with the wheels folded under!
 
I guess since I included a vintage Playmates figure I’ll stick this here, but wanted to share that I finally checked out the faux manhole cover the town of Dover, NH installed last year commemorating the creation of the TMNT. If you got the NECA Kevin Eastman figure then you got a small replica of the same. I considered bringing Kevin, but it felt weird to not have a Peter to pair with him. I could have brought my original Leonardo, the first TMNT toy I ever got, but how many people bring Classic Rock Leo?

 
SUPER jealous!

(Also, still waiting on the Foot Cruiser on Amazon to come back to be orderable... 😰)
I had it preordered, but the card I had it ordered with had to be cancelled, so when they emailed to update the payment method I cancelled it. I DO have to cut back on purchases, and that just had to be one of the things to go.
 
To those of you that have Ollies in their area, I was in one today and they had the vintage re-release of the Pizza Thrower vehicle that was being sold at Target a while back, and it was only $19.99.

The Ollies that I was in had quite a few of them, and they were with all the TMNT Mutant Mayhem toys that Ollies has out for the Holiday Season. Ollies always gets in way more toys around Christmas and usually has a bunch of them displayed in the store away from the main toy aisle. So, check both the main toy aisle, and find the big Christmas toy display wherever they have it set up.
 
Did Chrome Dome and Scale Tail ever really hit hard?

I thought there were a few other retro releases teased at Toy Fair. I would’ve expected a retailer exclusive four pack by now given that was almost a year ago.

I've certainly never found them, or Antrax. But I have seen people post pics of Chrome Dome and Scale Tail on Facebook. I don't know if they got them online, in the US, at retail, or what though.
