I believe you are referring to McFarlane's Page Punchers line of IDW turtles. The way licensing works with Page Punchers is somewhat different from a typical action figure because they are smaller and have less articulation than a typical McFarlane figure, and they're sold and marketed as a collectible that comes with a comic. It's very unlikely that the very specific licensing deals that McFarlane works out to create TMNT Page Punchers is a result of Loyal Subjects losing their license to make fully articulated figures based on the full range of characters from the comic.
The Page Punchers line will most likely be for just the 4 turtles with each one coming with a comic story that highlights them as a character. Page Punchers is as much a way to backdoor sneak comics into more mainstream retailers that normally wouldn't carry them as it is a value added feature for the toy itself, which in turn the comic publisher can use to get more people interested in the comic.
Last anyone has heard from Loyal Subjects regarding TMNT they'd announced a signigicant number of new figures that will require unique toolings, however since they don't have the same kind of publicity as bigger manufacturers it's unlikely we will see pre-release renders of their figures, which means we'll find out if they still have anything new in production from toy fairs and SDCC. If they show up at SDCC with no Ninja Turtles products at all then that could be a bad sign, but there are a number of other reasons why that could be the case that have nothing to do with the license, especially if they are supply chain related.
