Playmates Toys Walmart Exclusive TMNT 35th Anniversary Black And White Turtles Boxset

While we have not confirmed this set from Playmates Toys themselves, an image showed up on Reddit 2-weeks ago of what appears to be a new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Original Comic Book Series Black And White Turtle boxset celebrating the 35th Anniversary of the franchise.

According to details which again we have not officially confirmed, this set will be sold by Walmart starting out on their Website only beginning on July 18 and then later will see release in physical stores. No word on price. Thanks to BigJon for the heads up.

I'm guessing they're about 4-5 inches tall. These turtles seem to be reusing the mold from the SDCC 2014 Raphael exclusive.

These are the same "Comic Turtles" that Playmates released a couple years back. They're the same scale as Playmates' other Turtle figures.

I love this version of the Turtles.

I will try to get this at my local Walmart, but I won't stress about it. I love the tribute to the comics, but lately playmates has been dropping the ball on their TMNT line in my opinion.

I collected some of the Rise stuff but I hardly see anything new in my area. It's cool that at least other companies are releasing tmnt products but I would like to see something great from playmates. Here's hoping for comic con reveals.

They look nice, I remember the colored versions that came out a couple years back, they seemed ok, Ill stick with my Neca ones though.

Meh. Due to the styling, they lacked some of the articulation of the other Turtle figures of the time, and had no weapon storage whatsoever. I might have still picked 'em up, but they didn't hit that hard here, and I ended up opting for a set of Chinese Neca knock-offs from Ebay.

They should have included more weapons & accessories taken from the comic book like the Mondo release.
