Thanks Budo was one of my favorites as a kid and the club version just wasn't really Budo. The club was funny sometimes that absolutely nailed a figure and other times it was like wtf is this.
I'm glad I got BF2000 for the most part it was just a hassle as you know. Always loved Maverick.
Turtles definitely holds up, it was mainly humor so it’s still easy to lose a few hours watching the original cartoon. I’ve never been able to finish the final season or two while actually paying attention though. Have to give those another shot.
The late 2000’s Nick cartoon is really good too. First season is classic turtles but then each season following had a totally different setting and just some really good stuff tied together by a continuous story.
Didn’t catch many episodes of the more comic style cartoon that came after the original and totally skipped the last Nick cartoon with the weird style because I was trying to avoid any attachment to the new turtles because space is just a issue now. Have three turtle setups already and will need at least one more so have to be strategic with them now. Should get a Donny from that cartoon toyline though, he’s usually my go-to when I buy a random thing since he’s my favorite. Probably end up with them for a buck or so when toy shows come back.
Oh, the Club would drive me crazy. Like you said completely nail one figure, botch the next completely and then waste a spot on someone NO ONE wanted. Think if they would have just stuck to guys they could definitely do, would have gotten much better figures. I get that people always called for female figures as well but they just never had the parts to do them justice so should have skipped a few of those.
Yup, that BF2K deal did not seem pleasant. Haha. Glad it all worked out in the end and you are enjoying the figures though because they are really cool. Was nice when the club would just knock an entire group out of the park.

Epic final two to your group!
Love that you didn’t skimp out on the sculpting for Skito. Looks great. Just that bit on the boots really gives him a different look from the other guys, then you really went all in on making the odd head that he had. Love the coloring you put down on it as well.
Skulk is awesome too! All of his sculpting is perfect, really works well with the jet black paint. Love the head, had no idea how you were gonna get that done but you totally pulled it off. Think he’s my favorite of the villains you have now, even better than Spidrax.
Now you really raised the bar for me when I try these guys because I’ve seen them done so well, haha. Love the group shot, as always, you made such a cohesive group. Then the pics with their spiders are phenomenal. Definitely gonna be hunting for random insect toys when I get my Sectaurs display together.
