TMNT 2013 Toys in Europe

[the fixer]

Say, has anyone bought one of those Maxi Kinder Surprise TMNT eggs?
I've bought three of them over the last weeks and have gotten Raphael every single time, dangnammit!
If anyone got doubles of any other Turtle and would like to get a Raphael maybe we could swap....

I have only seen the Maxi eggs with Smurfs toys, at Carrefour and Colruyt stores in Belgium.

What store did you get the TMNT eggs from?

I got them at Carrefour. Even at the smaller Carrefour Markets.
If I'm not mistaken they're even bigger then the Smurfs Maxi Eggs. They cost around 8€ each and there are two licenses at that size: TMNT and Masha & the Bear.

Strangely enough I can't find any picture on the internet...
There's only this video:

Last time I was at a Carrefour store was February 10th, I think they had just put the Smurfs eggs (and other Easter products) on the shelves.
Do you remember what day you saw these in stores for the first time?

I can't find any more info on these either, besides some YouTube videos like the one you posted, but I guess it's the four Turtles and no other characters?

Will have to go check again soon, I doubt they will sell these after Easter!

I think I saw them after the 10th.
Don't worry, I think they'll still sell them after Easter. Given the high price point, I doubt they'll sell their entire stock any time soon.

Thanks for the info, I will try to go to Belgium again this month.

Got these at my store this past week, and yeah, it's just the 4 turtles.

They are bigger then I thought, and have better paint as well.

I purchased two Kinder Maxi eggs at Carrefour yesterday.

Believe it or not, both had Raphael inside it!

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

That's not exactly normal... Wonder if something went wrong with the distribution... Maybe some countries only get Donatello...

Yeah, I'm starting to think Raph is a 'Belgium exclusive'!

In other news, a Bart Smit store (soon to be Intertoys) over here in The Netherlands all of a sudden had two of the 'Ninja Strike' figures and Karai!

Say- has anyone found an Armaggon in stores yet?

I've been looking for him for weeks but without succes...
Starting to think he's either not out yet or REALLY rare.

I don't believe I've seen him in stores in Belgium and The Netherlands, hope you find him.
Got mine from the UK a while ago.

So, anyone has a Don and/or Leo they're willing to part ways with?

Just a heads up, the Samurai and Super Shredder figures are popping up in The Netherlands and Belgium.

At the moment it looks like the Samurai armor Usagi figure and the Samurai Horse sets won't be released in Europe.
