I called mega they said there is going to be no set to go to under the other side of Chet's.

If you look at the Toy Fair images they just mirrored another Second Time Around.

I really like that Mirage Casey and Raph set but I think $19.99 is a bit much you barley get anything in that set.

Yeah, price is the only thing that has kept me away from this series in general. It's all very cool, but not worth the cost most of the time, IMO.

In some cases I just want a certain figure & they just so happen to be set exclusive, such as both Mirage & Nick's Casey Jones, & the blue Kraang.

I wish they would release Mirage Casey seperatly like they do with the Mirage Turtles/ FW Turtles. id pay $5-6.99 for Casey. When you get a 20 dollar lego set you get 4-5 figures and at least a cool car ship or something

I'm not sure how you are saying Mega Bloks are over priced compared to Lego that's just ridiculous.

I am saying you don't get that much with the prices of Mega Bloks. But also Toys R Us always jacks up the prices on their building bloks sets its a known fact.

If Amazon had it i bet it would be cheaper than $19.99.

Yeah, I think we are saying the same thing. You can use either side of the of the roof top set to put over Second Time Around.

In fact I bought 2 sets of the casey set so I could make a full building. I wonder if they had another set planned but then scrapped it?

Yeah, when I bought them, that was the price I paid as well, but the single packs were sold out.

The darker Mirage Turtles looks a lot better. Shredder looks a little nude

Does anyone have experience on wiping Mega Bloks figures from the print, is on par with Lego figures?

The Mega Bloks sets are a great deal for the price when you compare what Lego is offering at the same price points. First off, the figures articulation BLOWS Lego away. Secondly, they've been on sale so often that I'm surprised you haven't been ablento get them at a discount. I got ALL 6 of the SDCC sets from TRU for about $75 shipped, tax included. I was able to get the Party Wagon during that Amazon sale. But even without the sales, you are still getting a great value when compared to Lego.

I'm thinking it was just something thet did at Toy Fair, I'm sure they had the booklets and product ready to go.

The Mega Bloks turtles are so cute! Too bad they won't be released in Sweden. We only get like a couple of Mega Bloks sets here, and it ain't the turtles.

Odd when I ordered mine they were $14.99 and $26.24 did they change the prices a few times?

I went to a TRU today and got them to run the Eastman single packs she said they are definitely in store items and some store in Florida had them.
