Oh for sure, that's my point. They take repaints/re-accessorizing to a whole new level. I find it a little insulting honestly, but there are tons of collectors who eat it up so what do I know.

And I do get that NECA wouldn't be the company they are if they weren't able to make money off of the same figure over and over. It's a solid business plan, I just don't care for it

Is there a set of gripping hands for Splinter? That is the only thing I would like. If so maybe I will get lucky and someone will part one out.

I am.

What I gotta not do is buy multiples of the original releases for different display options, knowing that NECA will have a better option for that (with little variations like these accessories) coming down the pike.

Different strokes.

Yeah, that's the other side. For me, the FOMO is too strong to not buy the first release if I have the chance. Luckily my compulsion isn't so strong that I feel the need to buy the newer iterations (usually).

There was, at one point, at least in my mind, a tease of a Hamato Yoshi and Oroku Saki set... am I dreaming that? I can't seem to find confirmation of that anywhere...

Still no confirmed date/month for April and maskless Casey I guess? 2021 feels like ages away.

Yeah I haven’t gotten a shipping notice for any of the Neca direct preorders I’ve placed.

Were we supposed to get one? Like, did someone get shipping notifications already? Or was this just someone wondering if we did since Necas announcement?

I never ordered from Neca before Tokka/Razhar and Super Shredder so I was wondering if they sent out shipping notices.

I got two of Tokka and Rahzar, but only one Super Shredder. Also got one each of the movie accessory set and the cartoon diorama.

I got two Tokka/Rahzar packs and one Super Shredder, though I ended up ordering a second later on from Robot Kingdom since it was cheaper. Figure I'll try to sell the second of both to offset the cost of the keepers. Being a TMNT collector has gotten to be really expensive this year and with these being available for order for awhile online I don't feel bad trying to make a bit of money off of the extras.

It sounds like NECA is prepping to ship everything at once. If my Tokka/Rahzars and my Slash/Leatherhead come in the same box I'll be knocking on NECAs email to get a refund for the duplicate shipping charge.

No you are not dreaming. Can't remember where that was though.

It was a tease during SDCC.

awesome, thanks for the info!

Looks like NECA is saying that preorders of Tokka and Rahzar will start going out this week and continue through the month. They say other TMNT toys will be shipping this month as well, but they don't specify who...
