I'm really getting pissed off now.

I've check Toys 'R' us about 8 times, and Wal-Mart 12 times (in the mississauga, ontario)

I just can't find them! Damn! Hell, I even found a chocolate Hulk kids can get for Easter.

Scored - Finally.

I called about 3 more KB Toys today. So in total I've called/been to 8 in the Southern CA area:

Arcadia (where I found Mikey and all they had left was another mikey & 1 splinter)
Montebello (1 shredder left)
West Covina (1 splinter left)
Montclair (sold out)
Ontario (sold out)
Glendale (sold out)
Puente Hills (sold out)
& Brea (sold out)

There was one more in the phone book but I didn't recognize the area. I ended up telling my friend and we drove to it, it was in Pasadena... low and behold - FULL STOCK! (Except no foot soldiers). So I picked up the other 3 turtles and was joyfully happy. I'm still undecided on whether or not I want Shredder/Splinter/Foot as I don't think I want to get back into collecting them like when I was little. I may buy another 4 of the turtles when I have the extra cash and just keep them in the boxes.

Whipper - if they're in the San Fernando Valley (you're talking california right?) Tell them to go to the Pasadena Paseo Mall (it's a recently built out doors mall off Colorado BLVD). It's probably only a 20 minute drive, that's where I found all mine last night. They only had 1 leo left, but 1-3 of all the others (minus the foot soldier)

Gah!

I'm glad that you're starting to get the new toys in Europe, but I can't help but feel peeved that we haven't gotten them here yet in Canada (especially where I live, nearly right on the US border). I've been checking Wal-Mart every week, but nothing. My comic shop has all of them, however. But they're pretty expensive there, and I'm not willing to pay that much when I could probably save nearly 50% at Wal-Mart.

I stopped by at my local TRU to see how the TMNT were selling even though my collection's pretty much complete...I am happy to report that after a week (I was there last Saturday as well) the shelves were completely wiped out! They just have some vehicles and several mikeys and raph avaliable whereas last week was a completely new shipment. WOOHOO!

I found the Shell Cycle and Sewer Slider, but I can't find the Battle Shell anywhere? Has anyone else?

Oh yeah, has anyone else bought the Sewer Slider? It's pretty cool, I'd definately reccomend it!
