Hey Guys.
I have just got my hands on some of the latest from Moose toys. Mutant Mania.

Attached File  IMG_4886-w1000-h1000.jpg   177.89K   160 downloads
I'll tell you what these guys are awesome! 
They are little wrestler dudes about 40 mm (1.5 inches) made of a hard plastic (very unlike trash packs) 
Also they come in a can (sound familiar? :p)

Attached File  IMG_4888-w1000-h1000.jpg   104.29K   224 downloadsAttached File  IMG_4890-w1000-h1000.jpg   106.93K   224 downloadsAttached File  IMG_4892-w1000-h1000.jpg   116.81K   212 downloads

The special thing is they come apart into 3 parts. head, body and legs.
In which you can make your own wrestlers!
They have a rubbery spine which clicks into the head and legs, then the body sits between them. Like so.

Attached File  IMG_4897-w1000-h1000.jpg   82.37K   202 downloads

The listing system is very much like trash pack with common, rare, ultra rare, special edition and limited edition.
Also every sculpt comes in a painted version and a transparent version referred to as Double Trouble. (see img below)

Attached File  IMG_4894-w1000-h1000.jpg   91.2K   147 downloads

These transparent versions are rad. It looks like you can get green, red, orange, blue, brown and clear.
The special editions, Reptiles of rage in this series, all seem to be glow in the dark.

I know some of you aren't the biggest fans of moose, but I think they're doing a great job giving kids today, what we loved when we were young. It's just the new version.
To recap these are extremely fun for me and I think kids will dig them a lot too.

What do you think of these? Reckon you'll pick some up

Cheers!

This might be the first line since Fistful of Power that I can really get into. They look really fun. Just ordered 2 of the 4 packs and 8 packs and the ring.

I just saw a picture, and it appears the backs (where the stretchy spine thing goes) are just open.

Not sure how I feel about that.

These look pretty great. I like the clear ones the best. They really remind me of something that would have been out in the late'80s/early '90s, which is definitely a good thing. They're kind of like a mini version of Socket Poppers.

I'll definitely check these out. It's hard to not like the whole wrestler in a can idea!

I almost wish the body parts didn't disconnect, but I do like the solid color variations.

Good eye. Not sure I like this either. Maybe it's like that so kids can pull a part easier.

Haha I thought this might get asked, it seems my local store doesn't look at release dates and just chucks things on shelves, happened with all the latest trash pack lines too :)

 

 

This might be the first line since Fistful of Power that I can really get into. They look really fun. Just ordered 2 of the 4 packs and 8 packs and the ring.

These guys are very much like FOP, very similar plastic too. The creativity from moose blossoms with these guys

 

Not quite as cool as FOP but not a bad effort.

But still Moose HURRY UP AND CONTINUE ON FOP.(╰_╯)#

If you love FOP you will dig these guys, I can see alot of them (fop) in these

 

I just saw a picture, and it appears the backs (where the stretchy spine thing goes) are just open.

Not sure how I feel about that.

Yea this was a slight downside for me too, but it is necessary for the rubber spines to be taken out and changed around, I thought it would be cool to do some repos of a full mix up character and sculpt a back on :p
I will take a photo of it for you so you can see it better than the tru pics.

Well I didn't get mine from TRU. 
I got them from a place in Australia called Big W, which I think translates to Target in America.
So I'd expect to see them there too I guess

That would be nice. TRU usually charges $2-$3 more for Trash Pack stuff, than Target does.
