Awesome! Definitely going to try to get my hands on this.

I wonder what the shipping label on the crate says. I hope it's got "East Lairdman Island" printed on it somewhere.

With the soft goods this release, I'm hoping that Raph in trenchcoat isn't too far away... maybe package him up with a Casey Jones next year.

Shredder's mask is removable on the 7 inch figure in this set. Someone inquired about it on Neca's instagram

3) Depending on how you're paying, have your PayPal pulled up and logged in, or copy and paste your card number from a sticky note in your background. That was the big holdup for many people last year...the dreaded pay screen.

Waste NO time. Good luck.
Exactly this...its funny how serious and heart pounding it can be and was for the last 3 years running, but man it really makes me love this collection and community. I know they arent all going to scalpers and these things are seriously GORGEOUS.....I have never seen such beauty. I think I literally just shed a tear....*sniffles*

Only online sale or also at the con?

Holy sh*t, that's awesome. I probably won't be picking one up, but it's nice as hell.

Amazing! Well done NECA, the saviours of TMNT figures.

Being from the UK I'm fairly confident that with the new licensing agreement NECA have in place now we will see these at some point, either in a set like this (unlikely, probably only SDCC for the set) or individually. Either way I will be biding my time on these now.

Once they are out can't wait to see some of the shots that come out now we have 8 figures from this film!

Like every year, they will have limited quantities available at the Con, but those have to be bought at the Con. I've never attended, but I heard they usually sell out on the first two or three days (so people attending only on Sunday might miss out) and that they don't accept credit card at the booth, it's cash only.

Wow, very cool!

Hopefully these show up later on in the year at GameStop. I have the 90’s TMNT figures from GameStop and would like this set to match.

I got held up at payment processing every time last year. I think this year I'm going to have Deadeye order for me. Maybe those four hands will be fast enough.

I was sure the "never before seen" figure would be Tatsu in an effort to re-use parts. I have to applaud NECA for going with Splinter, and an entirely new sculpt.

Not sure about NECA's policy specifically, but I know that many vendors at SDCC allocate a certain number of exclusives to each day, so that anyone attending any single day would have a chance. But again, I'm not sure how NECA does it.

Tatsu is probably coming. They were probably worried that a set with no mutant wouldn't sell as well.

That's the way it looked in the movie. I thought his Cape was all black too but if you look at production stills his cape has that zebra pattern in the original film as well as SOTO

Funny enough I thought it was a dark purple not black or zebra patterned. It is only in that one scene where he addresses the Foot clan,right?

I doubt we'd get Tatsu. But I really hope we get Casey. I almost feel we'd get him and Trenchcoat Ralph in a 2 pack exclusive.
