This is the 1st time I ordered thru BBTS instead of Entertainment Earth. How good are they on fulfillment as far as time goes? Anybody get any of the others from them? About how long after NECA released them does it take for other retailers to have them? It took E.E. literally over a month with all the rest so that's why I didn't use them this time.

I only use BBTS and I've never had a problem. I'd say maybe a week after official NECA shipments maybe. I've never actually compared the times. BBTS is good at emailing you status. They will tell you when they are expecting them, and again when they processed and shipped. You won't be disappointed I'd say.

BBTS and I are both in the Midwest and get them about the same time. They seem to take a day or 2 to process orders since they are larger than me. Im sure you will be fine.

Sweet. Entertainment Earth has always come through for me, but I'm impatient to complete the set and didn't want to wait until October/November when they will probably be getting theirs.

GAH! I can't wait for this thing!

Judging by that review it looks like Mikey might have a little bit of the topple forward torso that my Raph has. I guess Leo and Don didn't suffer from it as much thanks to their belt. It's not the worst thing ever .. I'm just a little OCD about getting some of the poses right.

It might be just the camera perspective but in his comparison of all 4 turtles video Mikey looks slightly taller then the others. I really hope it's the camera angle!

Got Leo and Don, and I am just about to order Michelangelo, It's gonna be hard having 3 out of the 4, but I am holding off on Raph until I can confirm the trench coat version is literally the same as the Raph that is already out there. If he comes with out his Sai or something, then Ill have to pull the trigger on the already released one.

I have four of NECA Mike left to sell if anyone needs one.

I think it was already confirmed that the Raphael with the Trenchcoat is exactly the same, right down to the sai. They may leave out the piece of pizza, but there's no point in including all the different hands if they aren't including the sai.

So Neca responded email. They couldn't possibly be less helpful with a attitude of not our problem. Now I'm waiting on EE to respond. Depending on that, try to fix this myself as last attempt.

I did figure out Raph is fine. It's just when Donny's legs gave out he bumped into Raph and took him down with him causing the broken sai. Raph's legs are fine though.

Here's some photos.

Thoughts on placing the legs back in and superglueing the shell seams back together? Any other ideas?

Too bad you don't know someone willing to sell you just the Donatello figure to replace it...

This is my punishment for keeping him in the box up until a few weeks ago since I had no where to display him yet. Putting together that setup took time and I'm nowhere near done. Hard lesson learned.

I bought an extra to customize but if you need just the figure (no box or accessories) we can work something out. Shipping to you won't be cheap but I get postage at a discount so that will help.

Oh nice!

Keep that thought. I'm waiting on EE to respond and my follow up email to Neca. Oddly enough I asked Neca if they had a replacement Donny and sai they could sell me at a discount in this new email.

Hows your Donny working? And yes, just the figure. I still have everything. Box and all.

It is in the mail to me. I am assuming you wouldn't need the belt either of you decide to buy a replacement one from me?

I had that same idea. I had one do the same thing. For now I just keep popping his legs back in. They only come out when I pose him. I was able to get him to stand despite being broken. I keep him up against my stereo, away from the others, just in case though.

Just a heads up for those that ordered from me. Mine should arrive Wed/Thurs and will ship out ASAP. Hopefully I can get them all delivered to everyone by Saturday with that 2 day delivery.
