I understand that, my question is about their distribution.

Since they popped up, are they widely available, or were there just a handful of cases?

There's probably no way of knowing since they were errors. They might be one of a kinds. I mean it's not like they were made on purpose.

Agreed, but if you head down to Gamestop now, and there are Raphaels on the shelf, which version is it?

Maybe I never noticed it but has Gamestop's Shipping always been 10 dollars. That's hella expensive on just one item

How does everyone store their NECA accessories? Between these and my horror figures I have way too many NECA boxes. Anyone have a good multi-slot storage container? I want to toss the packaging.

There are good, cheap options at Wal-Mart; ask for divider cases for sewing materials and/or fishing lures.

Here are a bunch via Amazon:

The ones I owned in my G.I. Joe days (talk about pain in the butt accessories!) were customizable so you could place tiny bits in one area and longer accessories (pitchforks, Alien plasma rifles, etc.) in other sections.

An update for anyone who's interested: Popcultcha's restock would appear to not include the "variant" head.

If there's anyone in the US who could help me acquire one, please drop me a PM.

*sdp* · 10-02-2019, 09:10 PM

I haven't had time to follow this line, is it still super difficult to get it? I really want to get a raph.

I was just watching the film again, and I'm even more convinced the new Gamestop Raphael head was accidentally put into production, but is intended for release later, most likely another SDCC multi-pack... but not with Casey as I'd originally suspected. The expression on the head is reminiscent of the subway scene... with April! Chuck in a couple more Foot soldiers and Raph's disguise and you've got a pretty sweet four-pack.

Still want Casey Jones though.

... and that Gamestop "variant". If anyone in the US could help me out, please send me a PM.

*Powder* · 10-05-2019, 04:45 PM

Yeah, the "error" Raphael head is so obviously meant to be the "stunt" head used in the movie (which is a great homage, IMO). I definitely think we'll see it on a future release of trenchcoat Raphael.

*Shogun26* · 10-05-2019, 07:44 PM

I am very much looking forward to a game stop undercover raphael. That's the figure that got me interested in collecting neca. Just didn't want the full size, giant scale, I like the smaller figures better.

It's an error meaning it wasn't supposed to be released on this body until they dropped the variant with the trenchcoat and hat. Nobody is saying it is a result of poor quality control in the sense of the head not being put together properly. It's clearly the expression from the subway scene when he's taking down Foot Soldiers. These things probably go into production far enough on the future that this is either already in production for next year's SDCC exclusive, or it's going to be a future Loot Crate exclusive depending upon how well the Fire Splinter Spirit variant sells.

Somebody let me know if I am wrong, but I thought NYCC was suppose to show more for this line? Did I miss it somewhere?

*Redrumh2o* · 10-07-2019, 03:21 PM

They did say that..... then after they set up they said nothing new until Toy Fair. Maybe the OK for Loot Crate to start was them showing something??

*sdp* · 10-07-2019, 04:21 PM

Any place besides gamestop that sells the movie turtles? that ships internationally?

Try eBay you might find some pretty good deals. I got mine pretty low priced because it stated “UPS badly mishandled the package and the boxes were pretty banged up“. Pretty much, the boxes were squashed in some parts and ripped a little in some places but I don’t care much for the boxes, the figures inside are still in excellent condition and legit brand new.

Otter · 10-15-2019, 02:18 AM

Splinter and company are up at popcultcha for any Aussies on the board.

Otter · 11-13-2019, 01:41 PM

Hey guys, I realise this thread isn't very active right now, but I was still hoping that someone could help me acquire the Raphael with the more open-mouth head sculpt. I'm not in the US so can't get down to a Gamestop to check in hand if it's the right sculpt.

Any help would be really appreciated.
