"TERMINATE THE TURTLES!!!" + NEW KRAANG FIGURE


*********************************************************

Nowhere near as interesting as Krang's 80's-90's Android Body, this is the only "NEW TMNT/Nickelodeon" figure I've gotten and haven't even watched the show yet.  Back in the day, I had several of the original TMNT line, including Krang in his "bubble walker", and still have my complete Shredder (minus those couple of easy-to-lose ninja stars) plus his bio card as well.  

The NEW Krang, or as he's called "Kraang" (sounds plural) is cool only for looks.  Difficult to stand up straight.  I always considered Krang to be a step above Shredder and IMO the chain of command should have been the other way around!









CURSES!!!!

This is how "Kraang" will end up standing (without support behind him, as shown above) 99% of the time.  Cool to look at, but that's all Kraang has going for him.  And unlike the hard plastic original, Kraang is as rubbery as one of those Wacky Wall Walkers and his tentacles looks pretty easy to tear off (or be bitten off if you leave supervised by a kitty!).


As a little boy once hollered out in a movie/game rental store circa 1994:

"HEROES IN A HALF SHELL --- POWER RANGERS!!!"
