They are here!! After cancelling my BBTS pre-order just to have them directly from NECA, no extra customs issues and they came directly to my door today.
Only took time to unwrap Donnie and have him in the thinker pose. Raph is waiting for my free days to have a little photo session. This things are huge and ask for a very wide shelf and good lightning to be propperly displayed (wich I don't have). Incredibly happy with the purchase, they to ask for some time and effort to get the pose you're looking for, but it are movie-made-flesh loyal to Henson puppets. What are you guys doing with the boxes? Has anyone finally found the right cabinet/shelf for them?

Does anyone here know if NECA will replace a defective 1/4 Donny that I purchased from FYE? The AB crunch is completely off the shell now. He won't stand at all. I don't know what to do. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Also, does anyone know if BBTS charges a restocking fee for returning defective things? It's for a different item.

Hi all, does anyone know the best way I can get these in Canada? I am not very good at this whole collectible thing but I just need these guys. NECA site doesn't seem to let you order from it?

NECA's site does not sell stuff unless your a merchant if these were available they would be on thenecastore.com but i doubt they will sell them there. your best bet would be BBTS.com or EE or keep an eye on ebay/Amazon

Thank you!!
Any photos of this in comparison to, say, a human? I'm having trouble visualizing how big.

I just ordered Leo - ETA in Au is July. That's about five months to figure out where to put him.

Thanks a lot everyone. Ordered Don and Raph and pre-ordered Leo.
Is it true that Don and Raph have the exact same body sculpt? Besides the scratches on Raph's shell? Just curious. I always found it interesting that Don of all people had the most rippling, bulging muscles in the movie.

Are you guys keeping the original box and everything to hold the figures inside?
I did not unpack my Raphael yet because i cant decide what to do with the box...

Mine did not so much, but I admit the coolest part is the original movie poster layout, wich I'll eventually also add to my collection on a more displayable way, so maybe I'm good letting the boxes go

Mine too, plus ...the box is huge! I'm not gonna lug that thing around for years. I have enough space already taken up by Mythic Legions and Star Wars packaging....

I'm almost positive that both Raph and Don had the same body sculpt even in the film...as did Mike and Leo, but Mikey was just much shorter than everyone else.
