NECA 1990/1991 Wal-Mart Exclusives

Is Leo's head from the scene where they present at April's door, she asks "What's wrong?", and he says "Splin... ter"?

Also super shredder and the loot crates have been arriving from a UK distribution centre so no customs had to be paid on those so hopefully it?s the same deal with all the preorders from the necastore.

Good to know. Thanks.

Raph's alternate head is from the scene where he smiling when April was on the TV doing an interview where she says "I would like to thank one individual and if he is watching, thanks Raphael". Leo is most likely from when they were leaving April's by saying "And speaking of which, we must be going. He worries".

I was hoping we'd get a toothpick for Raph. Still glad we're finally getting a skateboard, those newspapers, and Donny's farm hat. Everything else is a huge bonus.

It's a great pack and I ordered it, but man... regarding the pricing? Once these things are manufactured in mass and sold at 50 bucks a pop, I'll bet NECA is probably making 40 bucks a pack. Seriously after the "sculpting costs" those packs probably cost 10 bucks, beginning to end - from starting as injection mold plastic to being packaged in the box or card or whatever they'll use. 10 bucks.

But hey, I bought it. I'm not complaining, but seriously we are in the days of the $50 accessory pack for toys. That's some straight up bull $#!( right there....
But again, I bought it.

Just opened my Super Shredder. I have to say...I'm underwhelmed. He's really difficult to pose, and there's something about his proportions that seems off. Still looks cool, but after that grotesque shipping charge I'm not sure it was worth $50 to me.

I had the exact opposite reaction. He was gorgeous and posing him was a breeze. No stuck joints. Everything moves as they should and he's super posable. I do think he has a short upper body compared to how long his legs are though.

We're going to see these heads and most of these accessories on Ultimate versions of the Turtles at some point down the line, aren't we?

I’m late but my Casey & Raph double pack finally arrived.

Raph looks fine with the trench coat and a backpack. Casey looks great physically, but his shoes/feets are really limited to move for some reason. I like the accessories that came with them.

Got a glimpse of what Casey looks like behind the mask holes, can’t wait for his full face and April figures next.

Slept on picking up the brothers figures. Anyone have an extra set of the two packs they’d be willing to sell? Thanks!

[AquaParade]

Mine got stuck at FedEx a few days ago. Missed the estimated shipping date and hasn't implemented a new one in several days. Sort of frustrating considering how much the shipping cost.

Was that from NECA or Walmart?

Pre-order from a local shop.

Cheers.

Look at me assuming you're from the US. Sorry.

[Shark_Blade]

No sweat.

My figure arrived. A few thoughts:

- Looks awesome. Pleased with the sculpt, articulation, etc. Worth the price for me.

- It's never taken me so long to remove a toy from the package. Pretty annoying method of keeping the figure in place.

- Box art is gorgeous, but I'm actually considering tossing it. I have the figure displayed and don't need extra boxes just lying around. At the same time, I'm really disappointed by that, because the presentation with the figure in the box is gorgeous.

[Leo656]

I promise you, someone out there will gladly buy your box.

Don't bother throwing it out if there's any chance at all to make a buck off it. I see people buying empty figure boxes on eBay every day.

Hmm. Good tip, thanks.

Always seek advice from those of us who are both incredibly greedy and fueled by self-interest.

I legit see people buying used, ripped card backs from old action figures. Not for a LOT but money's money. Seeing as how I have a whole box full of that sh*t that might just be my retirement egg.

Good luck.
