These were my turtles growing up, so I'd love to see them get new figures with more modern articulation some day
Super 7 is taking care of that
These turtles i grew up with on the tv show. I had a few of the vehicles and the alternative customs with the code for the video game on PS2.
As well these versions were re-issued multiple times when the tv show was on tv. I remembered they re-issued these with brown belts to better match the tv show versions since the first wave had black belts.
As well they re-issued again but with updated articulation points like adding articulated hands and toes and matte the skin tones on the turtles
Ahh man that packaging just took me back to elementary school 🥹🥹
The best feeling is to go to a a random Target and finding these without knowing they were going to release! I was confused but so happy at the send time!
Lol same! Playmates does absolutely zero marketing for these releases. I was doing my weekly search for a foot soldier from the original line and found these at WalMart. Then I went to Target and found the Bebop and Rocksteady mutation figures. I had no idea any of them were released. Now Im on the hunt for the Leo and Raph Night Ninjas.
I have all 4 of them Leonardo Michalangelo Donatello & Raphael master splinter Leatherhead & more.
They are clearly only doing it cos super7 announced they would be taking on this license. Otherwise playmates wouldn’t have reissued them, guaranteed
I wait for the super 7 version
At least be grateful
True
@@josheeee9139 what am I to be grateful for? Playmates not even bothering to improve these and just re-releasing the same toy… nah man, pass… will see if the super7 ones are better and then decide
No way?? They are?
This show was so awesome!!! Still have mine from way back when they were first released and Shredder, always regretted not picking up more, I hope they release more characters
I love the 2003 series. Did not know Phil was the sculptor behind these
I still have my originals on card in a box
just got the whole set! i enjoy watching your vids, shiz!
Awesome! And hey thank you for watching
Oh good! I can use these to replace my original Raph's sai which is the only thing I'm missing. If they re-release Splinter, I'll pick him up too!
I haven't gotten lucky finding these, guys. Im getting so worried that I won't be able to find them.

They seem to be out of stock. Why is that?
THEYRE BACK
I found mines today at target all 4 turtles. I end buying all 4 and there was nothing left . I wonder why they only brought 1 set to the store
Picked these up today
Now how about they do fast forward remakes and the Tmnt movie figs
I got a feeling that tmnt may get a reboot soon
I feel very old.
Are these gonna be sold online?

Is there a deadline?
For what?
Went to look for them with no success
Lazy. They updated the articulation on these Turtles in like 2004, I think. They had at least articulated hands, and weree overall better, but it's been so long, I forget what all they fixed.
Lazy?
@@josheeee9139 On Playmates' part, yes.
It’s not really lazy, these are reissues. They aren’t meant to be updates. Those are coming later.
@@DaniWatts001 I mean, the updates would be reissues, too, so... I get it, cash grabs, but just... come on.
How is it lazy when these are clearly reissues?? Be grateful bro
Playmates is the absolute worst at marketing and advertising. They dont even have a website where they announce their releases. You just show up to the store one day and they're thier.
The best TMNT figs for the best TMNT show!
Now I hope Neca will remember of 2003 cartoon existance.
Super7 has the rights to do them and will be starting to release them next year, so we'll probably never see NECA touch them.
@@ToyMan3000-Isaac Any chance the licence can be shared simultaneously? Super 7 takes a million years to make anything, and the quality of their products is questionable, given the high price. >_
Just saw Leo, raph, and Donnie at my local Walmart for 10$ a piece. I had to get them, the amount of nostalgia I had when I saw these things hanging there. Like you said the box is just so unique and cool, instantly eye catching
No Mikey ?
@@isaiahvilla6691 not at my store 😭😭
@@rob6912 Shame
@@isaiahvilla6691 guess I just got one to hunt down now
@@rob6912 good luck
Are they going to re-issue , the 12" inch versions , of these? The 12" line is Really Special!!
I'm with you 💯
I hope so.
About damn time,2003 is slept on!
My 2003 TMNT collection is ridiculous 😂
I agree. I am shocked Playmates didn't release them earlier in the year (I mean this year is TMNT 2003's 20th Anniversary, so chances are they were either sidetracked by TMNT: Mutant Mayhem or something else).
I hope to see more re-issues of more 2003 figures, like Shredder, Hun, Casey Jones, and April.
@@jeremyriley1238 I am convinced Playmates has no clue what they're doing w/the TMNT line today.
2003 TMNT was the last of Playmate s greatness.
Especially towards the end of the '03 line.
The 4pks, 2Pack Mutants &/VS Monsters, Fast Forward ... the Dark Turtles...
OMG, chefs' kiss!
FINALLY some 2003 love. I’m so sick and tired of the constant pandering to the ‘87 show. This version absolutely rocks (the first 4 seasons at least). By far the best adaptation of the turtle mythos ever put out. This was the BTAS of TMNT. I’m all in on these toys, bring out more! And that theme song is a certified banger lol.
i never liked the theme song but I did enjoy the series a lot
Agreed. I respect the 87 series, but it certainly has a lot of attention already in terms of merchandise, spotlight, and even video games. This is the 20th anniversary of the 03 series, after all, and while I would have liked to see more done for it, having these reissues is certainly better than nothing. Now we just need Neca to make us show accurate versions of the 03 cast. Utrom Shredder's badass design is in long need for a modern action figure. ^^
@@FoxsDumbSeriesMaker i think neca would make some super accurate 03 turtle figs. that would be awesome .
If the 2003 show was the BTAS of TMNT, then the 87 show would've been the MMPR of TMNT.
Chill out
Holy shit what?! This is insane!!! I grew up with the 2003 Turtles, they were my intro to the series. (as were these particular figures.)
I kinda forgot about them after a long time, up until some months ago when I saw the 2003 series was finally getting a complete DVD release. Then I got back into that, and got into the Mirage comics and absolutely fell in LOVE with the series like I did as a kid. Mirage Turtles / 03 Turtles is the peak of the series imo. Hope these will be back in stores, I will absolutely be buying these things again! Thanks for making this vid!
Last week I was lucky to see them at a Wal-Mart and i was able to pick up Leo and Mikey But i'm still on the hunt for Raph and Donnie. And who ever came up with the idea to bring them back in store shelves gotta Give props to the guys at playmates for doing this Because it's my favorite version Of the Ninja Turtles its underrated.
Great looking versions of the ‘03 brothers 🐢🐢🐢🐢
Love to see NECA release ultimate versions of this cartoon! 🍕
Super 7 announced that they're doing ultimate versions of the 2003 TMNT show
@@FanaticMitchell1 For real
I just got the whole set from Walmart for $5 each. They were the last ones and Michelangelo was hidden behind some other toys.
I’m super happy they are re-issuing these figures! I actually didn’t even know about the 2003 series until just a few years ago, but I saw the original figures from that series in photos and was thinking about tracking them down. Now I will be able to get them at retail price instead of a huge markup! Super happy about that!
DUDE YOU GOTTA WATCH IT THE 2003 series (specifically the first 5 seasons) are so good!
Nice review of these excellent reissues! Wave 2 needs to be Splinter, Shredder, Casey & April with Mousers.
Absolutely
Yup! I want a Shredder so bad. All the 03 Shredders I've found on eBay are beat up or incomplete.
Happy for the reissue and it be cool if neca make them
This is actually pretty good timing because the complete series DVD set just came out too. It also gives me a second chance to collect these so, yeah, thanks Playmates. 👍🐢
Wish they re release the armored ones later, they had improved articulation
I am so gonna get these
Man i hope they release the vehicles especially the battleshell
Always my Fav TMNT 03 can't wait for the new super7 ones to come out as well!
I've been away from tmnt from next mutation to now. Neca brought me back and now I want to collect each of the 4 turtles from every Generation. I'm glad these are coming. I think I should get the Rise ones before they get too expensive. Who would be the hardest to find? I thinking Next Mutation and 2007
Some of the best character designs for the turtles ❤ and, unfortunately, the worst, absolute worst articulation of any line. 😢 i need these with the articulation of the new retro turtles! Will it into existence, Toy Shiz!!! Please😂
Do you have a link to buy them

Cool review! Colors look a little bit clearer than the original ones and don't have the blackish paint
They should have updated the articulation. They would have only had to retool the arms and legs. That being said i may pick em up for wall pieces.
Cool to see the 2003 series tmnt get some love. Such a great series. Still have my originals with some vehicles. One nitpick i have with the packaging is,the originals cards back then for the turtles had their face on the top for the respective turtle instead of all four.
Yeah, that looked awesome. I'm not usually an sealed package collector, but I would have bought these for that purpose if the packaging was like the old ones.
any fast forward figures? and the Dark Turtles?
your Raphs right upper arm is backwards. His triceps is at the front, can be sorted at the shoulder and elbow. great review. have the OG of these
Quality control issues from current Playmates Toys?!
@@elmarakovideo yes, but in this instance, you fix it by; elevating the shoulder, rotating the shoulder 180 degrees, then drop the shoulder and rotate the elbow and arm to the front.
Will we ever get reissues of the 2007 cgi movie figures?
I would like to see Super7 make the 2003 TMNT
Super7 has the license to do 2003. We'll see more next year sometime.
Same
I like the '87 series, but these versions are cool too. Would be nice to have a Raphael that can actually hold his Sais forward though. I see other Raphs that do it but just feels like the hands will break if I try.
Great release, the 2003 version of TMNT is my favorite incarnation of the turtles!
These are freakin🔥 best animated TMNT Series also glad that the series is finally on DVD
Omg i remember i had all of them. Even shredder😢
At least someone's putting these turtles out unlike some company we al know, looking at you neca

I used to have those when I was a kid!!! Now I think of buying them and keeping them safe in the package!
The 2003 series was my tmnt growing however because of how young I was I only had some of the McDonald’s toys. I’m genuinely so happy and excited to see these figures back. I’ll definitely be grabbing them when I can
Ah the one with the best theme song
These better come to Canada
I GOT ALL OF THEM TODAY!
I loved these figures back in the day, had so many, constantly forced my mom to go to Walmart 😂
Love the review! Would love to get your thoughts on my videos!
I’m 22 now and these where my turtles always will be !
As a huge 03 fan, I will definitely be seeking these out. Would be nice if they could casually be found in Walmart like the other old Playmates reissues.
I bought Leo and Raph (my two favorites) back in 2003 but I’d love to get the re-release of Michelangelo and Donatello to complete the set. Haven’t been able to find these figures in all the stores I’ve checked. Hopefully they will make more.
The only one I don't have is Michelangelo, they don't have it at Walmart or Amazon. Ebay wants it for $30, so the only place left to check is Target.
Finally
Always loved these versions.

The only thing I’d have liked them to add was Knee articulation, just to help with getting them into the vehicles. God this brings back memories
Happy Belated 20th Anniversary to TMNT 2003!
Will these be available online again at Target? Or even online at Walmart period? Looks like these have been scalped to oblivion on eBay, as usual with anything TMNT related that isn’t dogshit.
I love these figures! I have the originals with all the accessories, mint condition! I hope they release other characters as well. April, Splinter, Casey etc.
I remember having these when I was 5 years old I use to have almost had the whole set I was only missing Casey Jones, but I never got them because he was one of my favorite characters
uh it looks like donnies upper left arm is on backwards,raph's right arm is also on backwards or they both have two of the same upper arm on left and right sides.
The 2003 TMNT song is fantastic! Why hate it?
I've still got the flipping versions of these guys from when I was wee, definitely buying this version of Michelangelo when it comes to UK
The cards are wrong, on the original each turtle had the face of each turtle, either way I'm getting these to have them outside of the box.
Was that thing that comes with the Mikey figure in the original released figure. I feel like I remember the others but that thing I do not remember at all
Can't believe they reissued these, ugh
Am I crazy or did Raph come with a string originally
I'll definitely get these I so regret not getting the 2003 line I completely skipped it for some stupid reason and this is coming from some one that lives that animated series.
Thank you for showing the upc codes on the back!
When are they coming out in South Africa?
Wow had no idea and they look good from new play mates for the most part the old figs reissue look good again
these are lacking joints/articulations??...i used to have the old ones,they're very articulated !! too SHAME it's almost 2024 +less joints
These are the old ones.
It would be great to get six and seven inch scale with all articulation
These figures actually scale with 6binch figurs, the box states that they are 5 ft tall
If they re-release the Battle Shell,I'm gonna lose it.
I will have to get these, I have no idea where mine went.
These are the turtles I grew up with, it’s great seeing them back
Where did you get these? I NEED THEM NOW!!!

😂 I wouldn’t
I saw them at only 1 Walmart out of 10 and i cant find Raph. Rediculous
