Sent you a message, Coro. Thanks for letting us have the option to get Raph right away.

I'm interested in some more info on this, shoot me a PM and let me know the best way to work this out.

1 turtle will ship first class 2 turtles will ship priority. It will usually be the same cost when done.

I need to know if those that bought the Mikey/Raph combo want me to ship right away or when Mikey drops after the 1st of the year.

To do this please contact me with your ORDER NUMBER. Your order number can be found in your confirmation email. If you just reply to that message, I will get it. If I do not hear from you I will assume you want to wait for the Mikey.

RAPHAEL Update 3
Looks like Raph is waiting in line at the LA Harbor. Now slated to get to distributor on 11/21- and another week for me to get them. Keep in mind these dates change all the time, but I will continue to post updates.

Thanks for the updates Coro.

Thanks for the update. Btw I need to get with you again on another address change if possible

Huzzah · 11-19-2016, 05:03 AM

I got the invoice on my Raphael today.

RAPHAEL Update 4
I just got my notifications that the Raph's are on the way to me. Tracking number says they are estimated to arrive on Friday 11/25. Due to the holidays I do not expect this to be true, but they will be shipping out from me soon!

Did anyone see the news that TRU US are apparently starting to carry Tamashii Nations products?

I hope TRU UK will follow, I like to buy my figures in person so I can examine the paintjobs and choose the best, but at the moment the vast majority of lines I buy are not sold in any physical stores around me so I'm forced to order blind online.

This will also surely help the TMNT line (assuming it's carried) sell as well as possible since it will reach a wider audience and many people and grown 90s TMNT fans who are not currently aware of the line will discover it.

And who knows maybe TRU could ask for an exclusive or two. Turtle Van anyone?!

I'm going to guess that Toys R Us in the USA will be excluded from carrying the TMNT line. They will likely show up at Barnes and Noble stores as they may get away with calling themselves a specialty store, at least when it comes to toys and action figures. But judging by the fact that NECA couldn't sell to them in the past and Loyal Subjects and Diamond both have to alter their figures and call them keychains to sell TMNT lines through Toys R Us to this day, chances are slim that we will see the Figuarts Turtles there. Being in the UK, I'm guessing the distribution deals are different there. So it may still be a possibility for you.

Where is this news? There are quite a few licensing issues with this but I would love to read it

Interesting news. Sadly, it won't affect me. The Norwegian TRU is pretty awful and bare-boned.

*Coro* · 11-20-2016, 01:45 PM

Well this just pisses me off. How is a small specialty toy store supposed to compete with this crap?

Thanks for the find though...

EddieNES · 11-20-2016, 01:59 PM

I like that these will be in stores. Might make me pull the impulse trigger more. Simplicity at its best.

I wish that was all I needed haha.

Running a toy store is no easy task, especially online only. Also Amazon needs to rot in hell haha...

*full disclosure I use the crap out of Amazon.
