Nah Calendars is pretty quick at getting stuff in stock they get it around the same time other stores get it.

I am going to get a lot of flak for this, but I really think the price point for these are too low...

I am really hoping the quality is up to par. I see these sculpts and they are gorgeous and just as good as anything I have seen from Hot Toys and they are a LOT bigger in scale. I just hope they dont slack on quality with this price point.

On the other hand if they are as amazing as they look for this price- we are in for a rare treat!

This is good to hear. This will be the first time I have ever bought anything in 1/4 scale. For the price you just cant pass these up

I second this. I have Iron Man, Capt. America, Thor, West Batman and Ward Robin, Keaton Batman and a few others, and all are great. Nothing broken. No bad paint. They are great, and the Turtles look like the best ones yet.

Got my pre-order in for Raph! I was only planning to buy one of these guys, but I think I'm starting to cave towards buying the whole set.

Why not just buy your favorite turtle? You'd at least have that.

Yeah, that's what I settled on after being unsure for a while. Assuming I can afford to do it. I'm sure they'll have excellent re-sale value, so no real harm.

I'm a Donatello guy myself. I may take your advice and get at least one of them just to see what I think and may go after the others if I am pleased .

I'd say Entertainment Earth. Cheaper than TRU, unless you have a coupon, and free shipping.

I've never had a problem. I have Donny and Raph on PO there. I also have the backup of Calendars.com for Donny and eveantuallu Raph. I'll be keeping one in package and a second to have loose. All my EE orders have always come packed well but that's not to say there wouldn't be an issue, I've just had success.
