Man it is really bad if even Walmart employees have to watch every box come off the truck to get one.

Night Monkey · 07-09-2020, 05:04 PM

I really wanted to get these two packs. I never got a normal Raph head.

This is worse than it was trying to get the animated series figures at Target. At least those were online and had the in stock notification (well, until the latest wave they did anyway). It wasn?t great, but this seems worse. Not offering them online especially during a pandemic is particularly confusing.

If everyone gave up collecting these.. well, nothing, they'd still sell out since they only made 3

TMNTFanatic4Life · 07-10-2020, 09:14 PM

I went to a Walmart that said limited stock and they had none...lol

Same here. I?m done looking. It?s too dangerous with COVID to be around all the mouth breathers at Walmart.

Just picked up the 4 Turtles at a collector store here in the UK. Successfully convinced myself I didn't need them when the first hit but started to crack after Toy Fair. Finally broke this week. Can't wait to get home and open them up.

Edit - got them home and these guys are amazing! One of Leo's legs is stiff so I'll see if a little heat from a hairdryer loosens it up a little later, and there's a small factory defect on the top of Don's head, but other than that they are perfect. Can't believe I held off them before. So glad I changed my mind! Now to pre-order the Splinter and Shredder wave!

Ridiculous

Yeah all my local Walmarts suck and ghetto. That's Compton for you.

Tired of wasting my time especially with the covid factor and essential dead exhausted worker life. Put in a offer for $100 shipped on eBay, they accepted. It was $125.

I'll just have a International friend pick up the Tour turtles for me since I imagine it's gonna be the same trainwreck dealing with Target.

*Redrumh2o* · 07-11-2020, 10:23 AM

My Walmart is trashed and hasn't been restocked since XMas. There is a comic/collectibles store across the street so no chance lol.

TMNTFanatic4Life · 07-13-2020, 05:00 PM

Far as I can tell there's been only 6 off these sets in my area and all bought from scalpers...and I've seen reports of these not in other Walmarts until July 31st.in fact, I think there's only been 6 sets released in the state of Wisconsin Walmarts and that was on July 3rd...I have feeling I will find the Target wave 3 releases before this one.

I'm just mad that the one Walmart close to me that I check often had them on 3rd was the one day I didnt check smh

Looks like neca is adding some of the movie two packs to their online store for USA buyers. Randy tweeted it today

Likely legal with Wal-Mart and Playmate getting involved.

I hope this is true. I just messaged them on Facebook and they said Walmart 2 packs are in-store-only purchases. I had heard this and thought I must have heard wrong. So I wanted to check. So we suppose to be limiting outings so don't get COVID, and they want us hunting multiple Walmarts. Not cool.

Are the turtle 2 packs for Walmart any different than the singles that were available at Gamestop last year? If they are the same, I won't double dip.

The turtles and accessories in the Walmart 2 packs are the same as ones from GameStop last year. I think NECA did the turtle 2 packs with both TMNT The Movie action figure collectors and adult toy collectors who like to frequent Walmart in mind. The turtle 2 packs will nice next to the Casey and Raph, Splinter and Shredder, and Foot Soldier 2 pack.

*Redrumh2o* · 07-14-2020, 09:29 PM

I thought they retooled the bandanas??

Swaynomics930 · 07-17-2020, 07:39 AM

Has anyone copped from Zavvi?? Do they ship all at once if you preorder multiple things?

*Autbot_Benz* · 07-20-2020, 01:53 PM

Saw this on NECA's instagram story

TMNTFanatic4Life · 07-20-2020, 02:35 PM

One of the Walmarts by me took off the 49.96 sticker tag off their shelves [the Walmart I missed out on getting the Casey Raph 2 pack] so I guess that one wont get a restock or the other 2 packs.

That said, none of the other ones I go to have gotten them in and still have the sticker tag for them so as frustrating as is....theres still hope that they will get them but who knows when.
