Yeah Big Bad Toy Scalper Store. $300.00 was originally $200 if I remember correctly.

I guess 5000 sets last pretty long if sets are still available after NECAs online event and SDCC.

Also why drop that last day of online sales I think it would have been fine.

Can the torso joint move with the shirt on?

FYI while 299.99 is quite a markup, they still sold out of whatever allotment they had.

Glad I got mine for $200... best purchase of the year so far for me.

I don't think anyone willing to pay $300 is crazy -- actually still a nice investment when you look at the previous NECA turtles and how much they went up in value.

[EvilGreen]

I was just trying to help anyone & I paid $400 for my arcade set last yr but if u ask me it was worth it

[Rewdog]

Already paid $75 to get mine shipped to the UK, dreading what the post will do to it before Customs start adding charges.

So I just got mine
Got three turtles w derpy eyes
Has anyone gotten a response about NECA fixing this issue ?

I didn't check because I didn't even know about that until removing the shirt. But even without the shirt it doesn't move very much, so I would think no.

It must move somewhat or what's the point of it? The Mirage turtles' abdominal hinges work despite their plastrons...

I finally opened mine and have 4 DERPY turtles...

DERPatello, DERPelangelo, DERPanardo, and DERPael, are all experiencing wall eye and cross eye issues. All of them are looking up and to the side or all over the place.

For this kind of money I am actually pretty mad about it. I emailed them tonight...sigh. I am getting really mad with this crap all over this franchise.

I wish that was all that was wrong with mine. My Raph came with 2 left shoulder joints. The right shoulder has a left shoulder part in reverse. Eyes are an easy fix with a paint brush, but a wrong part, not so much

[Rewdog]

UK Customs have had a poke around mine, just waiting to find out how big the bill is going to be.....

Let's hope they don't have googly eyes as my chances of replacement are practically nil.

[Candy Kappa]

Bad eyes are an easy fix though. Shouldn't have been necessary, but still.

Just get some Games Workshop paint, and correct the mistakes.

[inaheap]

Anybody know if the eyes are separate from the mask? Maybe part of the head.

[TurtleWA]

This weekend I'm going to do some customizing. The eyes are the first part I go after. Just need to pick up some supplies.

Can you elaborate?

I have little time and my paintbrush skills are not very good.

My Raph has clear evidence of the black paint under the red mask bleeding over into the top of the head etc. Its almost like the bananna is a different part. Cant be certain though. Who wants to risk dismantling a turtle?

Do what I did and buy a couple of sharpie acrylic paint markers. You have more precision that way. just make sure you get the fine tipped markers

My raph's bandana is partly unglued under the left eye... so yes, they are separate parts.

Paint the eyes white with Skull White paint color, and paint new eyes with Chaos Black paint color.
