Yesterday I was at my local smyths and they were completely restocked with the new deluxe masks, Bebop and Rocksteady and 1 RC Shellraiser which I bought for £49.99. Also at TRU nothing there new except Dojo stuff and RC Shellraiser for £59.99. No Retro figures and veichles though

Has anyone seen the new version of the Shredder anywhere yet? After a Shredder v2 and MOUSERS.
Got my Anchovy Alley, the tooling is amazing on the sewer floor, nice little set to display my figures. Though I feel the same as most US reviewers - not enough floor space outside the pizza shop but its a fantastic kit.

what would be a good place in london to get tmnt stuff? my sister will be there for a day, am looking for bebop and rocksteady and maybe some ooze..

My local entertainer (Leeds) had Turtles in Training on their shelves today but I didn't have enough cash on me to get Leo and Don. Apparently they did have mousers and Shredder 2.0 but unfortunately someone beat me to them!

if its central London then you want to go Forbidden Planet on Shaftesbury Avenue (For comics, Toys, misc).
Or Hamleys Regent Street but Hamleys is more often dissapointing (Toys only).

There's an Entertainer in Wimbledon about half hour from me so i may try there. Toys r us just seems to be the ooze figures and stealth recently.

Thanks for the reply! Appreciate it. Was going to send her to forbidden planet anyways to look for NECA figures, good to know she can get TMNT there as well!

Picked up Mikey and Raph Turtles in Traing from Reading Entertainer, left one of each set on the pegs. No sign of Shredder v2 or MOUSERS in there. Couldn't be bothered to climb the stairs to the toys in John Lewis, will have a look next week.

New Argos book is out tomorrow, wonder what new TMNT bits will be in it?

Cheers,
Doug

I've got Shredder - he's on Amazon at the link below:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Turtles-Teen...hredder+figure
FYI, to get it for 9.99 you have to select the new and used and select the fulfilled from Amazon.
Just Mousers now for me.

Also, excited about new Argos catalogue - interested to see what's new.

HugeBadWolf · 01-18-2014, 05:40 AM

Argos have the new smaller battle shell turtles - Mrs HBW has picked me up one of each

Cheers,
Doug

nimajneb · 01-18-2014, 06:21 AM

The shell turtles are show accurate by the looks of them, down to the toes. Not s detailed as the original four from wave one.
Shredder arrived and is looking Awesome! Better overall then wave 1 shredder

The Turtle Terminator · 01-18-2014, 09:35 AM

My 4 battle shell figures

Turtle Sub!!!!!

It says new battle shell turtles too but when you order them, they bring out the old big ones so I don't know whats going on there.

I got Leo and Don TIT from Entertainer too!

That's odd, I reserved them and got the new small guys.

Saw the sub in the book, may have to do a customer view and see if they have it after payday....

No problem

HellCat · 01-19-2014, 07:42 AM

Got my hands on the SDCC Shredder and have to say it's really nice. It's let down by Playmates toy design issues (those seam lines...) but overall I like it more than I expected. I thought the vac metal would look terrible but it actually works really well and fixes the issue I had with the colour of the armour on the first Shredder toy.

nimajneb · 01-19-2014, 02:57 PM

Toy Barnhaus/toy master shop in Croydon had all the new figures - turtles in training, mousers though sold out of shredder.
My anchovy alley has a mouser problem now!

joefsas · 01-20-2014, 06:43 AM

Argos has Bebop and Rocksteady!!! Sweeeeeeeeeet!!!

Edit: Just checked my local Argos, and they have both Bebop and Rocksteady in stock! I know where i'm going after work

And with my £15 voucher it's pretty much buy one get one free
