They are not a company that thinks with the collector mentality.
For all the problems people have with Toys R Us, I must be on their nice list or something, because every order I get from them is in a proper box and has at least some air cushion packing material.

Maybe I got put on a list back when the sewer lair/Z Line Playsets were out. I didn't trust them to ship a set since their website specifically stated it would have to be shipped without an outer box. So I had the local store call around to locate one and then drove 300 miles round trip to get it in person.

I'm gonna wait and see if Calendars.com comes through.
Don't mind the wait, as long as they don't cancel the order!

Awesome review. These figures without a doubt are the most gorgeous I've seen. Marvelous job Neca.

This is a grail figure. I'm selling most of my Hot Toys to make room for these.

That review got me even more excited to receive my figure.

Cancelled my order from Entertainment Earth and re-ordered directly from NECA through eBay.

Received confirmation that my item has been shipped and should arrive by 12/19.

Have my Raphael pre-order through BigBadToyStore. Can't wait to complete this set.

Looks like the NECA turtles will be in my hands tomorrow. I will post my spares for sale (3 units), but I have been told these are large and heavy. So no idea on shipping charges.

If you haven't got any cancellation notice by now it should be fine. They canceled my Catwoman preorder in September so they do know quite early if they have to cut some preorders.

I'm guessing in January we will see Donatello. I personally would rather wait a few weeks to avoid the Christmas rush.

Mine should be coming in this week I think. A nice little Christmas present for myself.

Just bought a house and looking to turn the spare room into a little TMNT shrine. Picked up the Rich Kelly TMNT Secret of the Ooze MONDO poster last year and have it framed and I should get getting the 1990 one from 2014 soon hopefully and these NECA figures will be an awesome addition!

Have a good amount of you preordered Raph as well? Really pumped on that one since he's my favorite and all.
