Hey guys, I've seen pictures of them but has anybody really come across the new Mini turtles figures? Every pic I see on web sites look to be the same, with the same little clear push pin holding them to a board. So, I guess I'm asking if anyone knows where or when they might be released? :D

The only place I've seen the new mini-figures (the tiny ones that look like the old line and come with no weapons) is my local Rite Aid, a drug store. And my friend said she saw them at the Rite Aid she works at. Didn't see how much they cost, they didn't have prices.

Hmm, how tall did they say the mini-figs were, 3 - 3.5 inches? Yeah, about that.

And yes, they are out. At least they are at Rite Aids in San Jose, CA. :D

What's a Rite Aid?

Rite Aid is a drug/everything store, similar to Walgreens, Longs, and a few others. I'm sure there's an equivalent pretty much everywhere. Visit your local shopping center, one'll be there.

The trick is not to just look in the toy aisles of those stores, but at the ends of all the aisles, as well, that's where I saw them, at the end of some cleaning product aisles.

What bugs me about these mini figures is that they all are the same sculpt....hmm...just look at the faces...I wonder how much they cost...with no weapons?!?....what's up with that?....hmm... they should only cost like 2.99...or less....I should be able to pick up all 4 of them for under 10 bucks....they just don't seem like much....lol...I'll pick them up if there cheap....not if there like 5 dollars a piece or something...they'll probably run for 3.99...I'm guessing....whooooo knows?

THANKYOU!!! Thanks Kali, I went down to the local rite aid today and was able to buy all four of them. :evilgrin: They are pretty cool, but they would be better if they came with little weapons of destruction! at $4.00 a piece they were kind of expensive, but I still love these little guys!

I found the mini figs at Rite Aid today also. They had 3 of each figure but none of Raphael, I'm going to check around at other Rite Aid stores tomorrow to see if I can find him.

WOOT! I went back to Rite Aid and they were hidden in a little spot away from the regular Turtle toys. My store only had Dons and Mikes though :( I took my Don out of it's package to play with AND NOW I LOST IT! THEY'RE TOO SMALL!!

It'll prob show up sometime... here turtle turtle turtle...

I just want the mini turtle figures so my old Leatherhead figure can finally be bigger then the turtles. :D

I mean, if the mini figures are like 3 inches tall, & the old Leatherhead figure is about 5 or so inches long, he's almost to scale with his old file card stats! :lol:
