Movie Shredder is out

[BigApple3AM]

Someone I know found 2 shredders, a sloth monster, and the turtle variants in IL.

1,000th post! Damn I need to get a life. But I thought you should all know to keep an eye out!

[CyberCubed]

Awesome, I've been waiting for these.

Someone should take pics with their cell phone if they don't buy them. :p

[Roseangelo]

Rats! And I'm in IL right now, but with no transportation and no clue where the nearest Target/WalMart is!!

[soccerstud652]

I'm heading out tomorrow, will pick up if I find it and post detailed pics.

[Janus Prospero]

Sweet. I was running out of things for the turtles to do on my desk.

[VaughnMichael]

omg you're right!
gotta love ebay!

[Shredder]

Cool- I'd like to see more pics. :)

[Krueger]

That is awesome. I'm so there...need to pick that bad boy up.

[Greenteam4]

....just when I thought I was done buying my precious Turtle toys....at least until 2008 :P

[cowabunga14]

I'm thinkin' I'll head out sometime this week to buy the figure.

[HalfcourtGame]

Couldn't find any new Movie toy at Target or Wal-Mart today. :tsad:

[Toonami Tom]

I'm glad he's released. I can't wait to find him at the store.:) Thanks for the news.

[Ninjinister]

I'm going out this weekend to get TWO Shredders and a Ghost of the Jungle Leo! F%& YEAH!

[Raph's Girl]

SW33T!! Im heading to Wal-mart tomarrow and Target on Friday so hopefully either one of those stores will have em! With the movie out on DVD next Tuesday (Aug 7th) it's no real surprise that the new toys are out...but still... I want the Sloth and Ghost of the Jungle Leo! I might get Shredder if he looks good enough...

[Spitfire]

ooo My butts going to Target today.

[soccerstud652]

Did not have them @ my target.

[Krueger]

My target didn't have a trace of em! All they had were the four brothers. A waste of trip for me...:-?

[General Traag]

They made a toy for a character that isn't even in the movie? ^°

Those guys surely love merchandising eh?

[Ninjinister]

Who would that be?

[Raph's Girl]

They made a toy for a character that isn't even in the movie?

Huh?? What u talking about? Shredder was in the movie...he was in the opening credits! :P

[shuriken]

yeah that's playmates for ya. It looks cool but I'm more interested in the old school figs.

[Spitfire]

No sign at Wal-mart only some turtles, 2 FF figures and 2 2K3 figures.

Oh well Target probably won't have it either.

[Krueger]

They made a toy for a character that isn't even in the movie? ^°

What are you, kidding? Have you seen the Spiderman 3 line? Doctor Ock, Lizard, and Rhino figures? Deleted scenes, perhaps?!

[GK Punk]

Well, the Spider-Man 3 line was refered to as the classics line as well.

[General Traag]

Lol, allright, allright.

I must have missed the 3,5 secs where you can see old shredhead in the new movie.
And i'm not that familiar with toys so i automatically assumed a toy from a character which gets barely even mentioned in the movie would be something unusual.
I simply wasn't aware that toy companies are milking kids that bad. :p

[odupianist]

After watching the Tribunal season yesterday, I'm thinking that the "movie" Shredder looks like the Tengu Shredder.

[ToTheNines]

Yeah he does lol, only less zombified.

[Ninjinister]

I never realized that. Hmm... I was wondering why the movie Shredder looked like one thing, the video game Shredder was basically a shiny 2K3 Shredder, and the figure looked nothing like either!

[Drtooth]

I don't even have the 4 Turtles, Splinter and Casey yet.

[VaughnMichael]

I simply wasn't aware that toy companies are milking kids that bad. :p
Really? it's been going on pretty much the same since toy comercials started.:lol:

[Raph's Girl]

I don't even have the 4 Turtles, Splinter and Casey yet.

Of the movie figs, I have:
Karai
Max Winters
Casey
April
Splinter
Raph
Mike (one of the McDonald's ones)
Spider Arachnor
Vampire Succubus
Jersey Devil

*runs off to Wal-Mart*

[Krueger]

I know it is on ebay but why can't this guy be found anywhere else? Maybe it is too early and I'm just impatient but I stopped by the Toys R Us in Times Square, NY and there was no trace of the Shred Head. If you know anything about this Toys R Us, it is gigantic and has a huge amount of toys there. There was an avalanche of TMNT toys. They had all of em except him and that Sloth dude... I demand more evidence of his existence.

No signs of them on the east coast yet I'm in Pittsburgh,p.a. and I've been to 5 stores and not a sign of them but it really does depend on what store you go to because each one is differnt when it comes to stolking it's shelves.
Most walmarts take forever to do this while target does it more often than not.
But I try to keep an eye out in every place.
Be patient these will be everywhere soon enough.

[Toonami Tom]

Yeah, I agree, toy companies milk kids badly. That's why there were so many turtle variants in the past and Batman.

Introducing Batman in a green suit with big purple claws!:D I'm not kidding, I saw a figure similar, if not just like that when I went to the store.:lol:

Well theres not really much one can do with batman.
But I'll give playmates credit for their past work atleast back in the day every single turtle figure had a brand new sculpt and made the figures fresh with new box art unlike now everythings so generic.

[Krueger]

I agree with you for the most part but they had their share of the same figure/sculpt with different variants. Do you know how many variants there are of Genghis Frog? Take a wild guess!

[METALHEAD]

:tgrin: :tgrin: :tgrin: :tgrin: :tgrin: :tgrin: Great!new TRANSFORMERS assortments movie delux coming this month, GIJOE 12inch adventure team walmart exclusive figures for 10 bucks out this month. tmnt original series coming out ondvd as well as a movie dvd & GIJOE 25th anniversery figures and now TMNT toys XD damn i'm gonna make my mum mad with all the spending :trolleye: >.> good thing my b/f doesnt have a problem with it.:trazz:

[VaughnMichael]

Those aren't actual variants those are mistakes and changes made during the production of the figure it's self.
What I'm talking about are figure variants as in costume changes every single figure from the orignal line sans the released repaint warriors at the very end of the line where all orignal sculpts.
Btw yes I know about every figure and box variant ever those don't count like I said.
It's a shame they can't bring this sort of creativty and quality to the line today.

[shuriken]

yeah that's playmates for ya. It looks cool but I'm more interested in the old school figs.

But ya know, I think I'll get the movie Karai.

[Zoey]

Totally sweet news that Shredder is in stores. Heres hoping that someone here gets one and posts pics soon.

[AquaParade]

I just picked up Blackout last week :) Which new ones are coming?

[mattmanw54301]

No sign of Saki here in Lower Canada (aka Wisconsin). Checked Targets, TRUs, and Walmarts. I am gonna wait on this one, I busted my buns trying to find the Karai/Winters/Vampire/Jersey Devil wave, and I got nothing. Then a week after I stopped looking they showed up EVERYWHERE. Now all the stores here are SWIMMING in Karais and Winterses. So I am just gonna focus on the new TMNT dvds coming out, and on collecting my vintage figs. Then hopefully in a couple weeks they will show up all over the place.

To all the new collectors out there, here is my advice. Don't waste your gas chasing all over the place. Don't pay scalper prices, cause scalping shouldn't be encouraged. Just be patient. Especially with this line. Sooner or later, even the 'rare' figures show up everywhere.

[Ninjinister]

Sooner or later, even the 'rare' figures show up everywhere.

With the exception of the reissuing of the Monster Don/Rat King/Baxter Robot/Nobody/Bishop line, this has not been true, especially in this area. No one I know in a 100 mile radius has seen a Quarry, Gen, Feudal Shredder, or Hamato Yoshi.

[Drtooth]

Of the movie figs, I have:
Karai
Max Winters
Casey
April
Splinter
Raph
Mike (one of the McDonald's ones)
Spider Arachnor
Vampire Succubus
Jersey Devil

*runs off to Wal-Mart*

It's kinda due to the fact I haven't found a reputable place to sell my vital organs yet.

(Come to think of it, I also need Fast Forward Donatello, and I can't find him either)
However, I dunno about you, but I would be one of the many who would want a Shredder done in the style of the movie. I mean, while I am thrilled that he wasn't the focus of the film and the franchise (the same thing they could have done without in TMNT 2, but it would have been different) It would be nice to see himk in the style of the film. Plus, wasn't he in the video game? I don't know.

I'd love to see them release a second wave of minis with Casey, April, Karai, the other soldiers, Jersy Devil and Shredder.

[mattmanw54301]

I was referring specifically to the TMNT movie line. :D

Either Playmates has gotten their production ratios figured out, or the distribution/shipping system is better. Because finding TMNT 2K3 figures that are 'rare' is unheard of here, and finding 'rare' TMNT movie figures is commonplace.

[Roseangelo]

I don't think there's been a rare movie figure.

Now I'm off to find new Turtles. :D

[CudleyCowlick]

I've still held off on buying any movie figs since I'm so intent on completing my vintage collection, but I'm a sucker for a nice Shredder, and this one looks pretty bad ass. Ghost Leo is also lookin' pretty SAH-WEET!

I went to Wal-Mart on Friday hoping to find them but they were pretty cleaned out and I saw no trace of any of the new figs. Not even Sloth Monster or any of the General 2-Packs.

So I guess I'm still holding off on the movie figs, but now it's only going to last until I can find the ones I'm looking for.

Oh... well then that syntax makes no sense, because unless you're referencing this newest line which isn't widely available yet, there ARE no rare movie figures! I've seen them all, and I've never heard anybody reference any as unfindable.

Speaking of unfindable, I still haven't seen the effing Dark Turtles with my own eyes.

[VaughnMichael]

Yeah at this point about the only place you're going to find Fast Forward figure is on Ebay every store across the country is sold out all the stores have now is movie figures.

[METALHEAD]

I just picked up Blackout last week :) Which new ones are coming?

08 bummble bee & arcee and some other autobot that transform into a tow truck & a decepticon jet. though some tf fans are having a hard time finding this new assortment

[Leogeddon]

i'm going to go buy some toys soon, when i get paid this coming friday, it stinks getting paid once every two weeks, but i have no right of saying anything when some people get paid once a month or once a season.

[GK Punk]

08 bummble bee & arcee and some other autobot that transform into a tow truck & a decepticon jet. though some tf fans are having a hard time finding this new assortment

Indeed, I went all over town looking for Concept Camaro Bumble Bee and Arcee.

[Janus Prospero]

Yeah at this point about the only place you're going to find Fast Forward figure is on Ebay every store across the country is sold out all the stores have now is movie figures.

Actually, the 2 Toys R Us...es in my area still has some fast forward figures. The one actually has a decent amount with some of the turtles and a dark turtle or two, while the other one still has some original 2k3 toys (Nobody, a Baxter, and some Paleo Patrol.)

Ah ic sorry then my bad I can't be all over the country I was just guessing since they've been long gone in all the stores I've been to but I really don't step foot into that over priced hell hole that is toys r us anymore.

I know. They're the only place I've seen them myself, so I do figure that they are rather difficult to find (especially if you were looking for something specific.) Target and Wal Mart have completely phased the old lines out, and the KB's in my area don't even carry TMNT anymore for some reason. :ohwell:

Hmmm odd theres one kb in pittsburgh,p.a and they have the new movie figures not many but they have them.
I had to order my dark tmnt on ebay but I didn't care I have them all now.
Toys R Us used to be such a great store before they changed the set up of all the stores I used to work for them I warned them when I saw the new lay out plans they came up with I said I'm warning you if you change the way this store is set up it will be your down fall...and sure enough look at the store now...complete crap..and everythings soooo over priced now it's not even funny..bad moves left and right for them.

[Drtooth]

I went to a TRU Saturday, actually. They had FF toys, but only Mike, Viral, Splinter, and some of the Dark Turtles. I still REALLY need Don to finish off the set.

And of course there aren't as many "rare" movie figures. The movie line was just realeased and everyone's buying them. Unlike the 2k3 line, which clogged itself with random frivoulous varients that no one bought multiple to a pack with one villain or B character in the assortment per 5 turtles.

[Spitfire]

We have a few Monster Dons here and Baxter Robots.

And most of those toys blow anyways so theres no point in looking for them. I have Quarry I'm going to sell it for a buck or two later. I've seen it got for 50 on Ebay

[HalfcourtGame]

On Saturday I ordered a handful of Fast Forward figures on kbtoys.com including all 4 Dark Turtles. I haven't seen many FF figures in stores though, most likely cuz I live in the sticks. On the topic has anyone ever seen a Inuwashi Gunjin for sale?? I don't recall even seeing one of them on ebay. :tconfuse:

The Inuwashi Gunjin Figure along with 2k3's Purple Dragon figure and a hand full of other never made it to stores.:ohwell:

[HalfcourtGame]

That is super weak. Judging solely on the pictures on the back of the other FF cards that would have been one bad ass looking action figure. Can I say ass here? Ahhhh well. So no Jammerhead either I assume? (even though I thought he was kinda lame) I count 14 Fast Forward figures on the official website is that all there is?

Jammerhead came out I have him with my other figures.
There was to be another wave of FF figures but I'm starting to wonder if the reason we haven't seen them is because fans stomped their feet and threw hissy fits over the show without even letting it grow and then peter coming here seeing the majority of the whiney fans and made playmates put a stop to the line.
Thats just my thoughts last I heard from Dan over at the official site was that Stee Murphy was trying to get them to release the figures but obviously it either wasn't true or other people *ahem peter* are stoping him from doing so.:roll:
And I agree it is really sad but it's just a slew of more figure to add to the list of unreleased toys in the turtles action figure history.

[HalfcourtGame]

Ya it really is too bad. I didn't hate the show when it first came out but didn't like it much. I thought it really came into it's own eventually and I started to enjoy it. If nothing else the show being short lived will add to the collectibility of the FF line. I noticed Jammerhead wasn't on the official site, don't suppose you have a list of what they did release for FF do ya Putrescent?

[CyberCubed]

The only villains of FF released were:

Shoko'nobo
Viral
Jammerhead
The four Dark Turtles
Torbin Zixx

The goodguys;

TMNT
Splinter
Cody
Serling


That's not counting varients. The Inuwashi Gunjin never came out, sadly.

[odupianist]

No one I know in a 100 mile radius has seen a Quarry, Gen, Feudal Shredder, or Hamato Yoshi.

I saw a Gen in an Eckerd once, wish I had bought him now.

[Drtooth]

And I agree it is really sad but it's just a slew of more figure to add to the list of unreleased toys in the turtles action figure history.


And Playmates's history, right up their with Family Feedbag Moe, The entire Ripping Friends line, and series 2 of Darkwing Duck and Earthworm Jim...

[Ninjinister]

I saw a Gen in an Eckerd once, wish I had bought him now.

Saw Gen in a what now? 0.0

[VaughnMichael]

Agreed they used to be such a great & fun company. I really wanted that liquidator figure! And also kill for a proto of Dr. Quease that I'm using as my user icon.
Saw Gen in a what now? 0.0
Eckerd is a drug store ;)

[Krueger]

I officially don't believe in the Shredder figure. I see the guy on ebay is selling another one but I'm still skeptical. It is a really bad picture.

[BigApple3AM]

Relax, I've seen the figure first hand, as well as remnants of the wave he ships with (I've seen Jungle Leo, Extreme Sports Mikey, and the new monster). The only one I've been able to buy so far is Jungle Leo, the rest I'm not interested in besides Shredder which was already sold. He does exist though.

[Janus Prospero]

While I was out collecting the DVDs during lunch today I stopped by the local Super Walmart and picked up the movie Shredder. (Thanks for the tip Roseangelo.) They also had at least one of each of the new turtles.

http://i188.photobucket.com/albums/z258/JanusProspero/Shredder0.jpg
Oroku Saki in all his packaged glory. Watch out, the little bastard is bound by like a dozen twisty ties, so it takes a bit of effort to release him from his plastic prison.

http://i188.photobucket.com/albums/z258/JanusProspero/Shredder1.jpg
He comes equipped with a hi-tech katana, as well as a more traditional sword, a huge Naginata (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naginata), and ridiculously large shield.

Anyway, I forsee much fun in the future...

OOOOOoooOOO, supposed death huh? Anyways, thanks for posting (I love that shot of the TMNT facing him).

[VaughnMichael]

Wow! So now after all these years we learn that Shredder is Actully Ricky Recardo!:lol:

[ToTheNines]

bwahahahaha:lol: Holy crap, thats crazy

[Ninjinister]

Wow! So now after all these years we learn that Shredder is Actully Ricky Recardo!:lol:

No, Ricardo Montelban.

And holy crap I didn't know you could remove his helmet! That's awesome. Well, when I went to pick up the DVD at Target, they only had the four basic Turtles. What a bugger... I still need to grab Yaotl.

[CyberCubed]

So Shredder doesn't have a claw mark on his cheek? Aw.

[VaughnMichael]

No, Ricardo Montelban.
It was a joke you know ha ha...:lol: Ricky was the first person that came to mind...ah nevermind thanks for killin the joke :P

[Spitfire]

How much you wanna bet when the new movie comes out and if he's in it they will repackage this toy with new weapons and use it for the Shredder figure.

[VaughnMichael]

How much you wanna bet when the new movie comes out and if he's in it they will repackage this toy with new weapons and use it for the Shredder figure.
Yeah and he'll have a removable Utrom in his belly...how much you wanna be that...:|

[Ninjinister]

I've freakin' wanted a Shredder figure with a removable Ch'rell for some time now. Only it should be a 2K3 figure - not a movie one!

It was a joke you know ha ha... Ricky was the first person that came to mind...ah nevermind thanks for killin the joke

... I don't get it.

[Krueger]

Yes, I feel stupid now. After I posted my last post, I opened the TMNT DVD and saw the new figures for Fall 06' and there was ol' Tin Head himself. Yay.

[VaughnMichael]

I've freakin' wanted a Shredder figure with a removable Ch'rell for some time now. Only it should be a 2K3 figure - not a movie one!

Yeah Sarcasm doesn't translate well over the interweb.

[Coola Yagami]

not unless Shredder looks totally different in the new movie. they'd be forced to remake him.

[ToTheNines]

If playmates has anything to do with it, no way in hell is he gonna look different in the movie (I don't think they do... but you know them)

[coryroo24]

Got Shredder and Sloth monster at a Walmart around the Pittsburgh, PA area. I haven't looked for figs in a while, and was surprised to see Shredder and Sloth hanging there. They also had all of the TMNT variants.

[Ninjinister]

Yeah Sarcasm doesn't translate well over the interweb.

Okay... you said Ricky Ricardo... and I just made a word association of Ricardo Montelban... and now you're making Stephen Colbert references...? Maybe I just don't get humor....

Still looking for Shredder and Jungle Leo. I'm heading to Toys R' Us this weekend to see if they've got 'em yet. I remember they had Fast Forward figures literally before anyone else I know (even across the interweb :lol: ), so I'm hoping they'll have them there. Getting two Shredders, as a matter of fact - one to open and play with, and one to hang on my wall MIP.

Steven says that now?
Lovely my x boy friend from texas used to say that years ago lol.:lol:

[Jones_Casey]

this series seems a little strange to me

what happened to the Sloth and Sea Monster's and Splinter Vs Bigfoot

i hope they haven't gone the way of the Mystics, Space Turtles, Test Tube Splinter, Mouser 6-Pack, Green Dark Turtles, Inuwashi Gunjin, Purple Dragon, the entire second series of Fast Forward figures and anything else that i have either missed out or not heard about.

hopefully these get released in the second wave ala Winters, Karai and the Monsters.

[Roseangelo]

The Sloth monster is part of this new wave.

[odupianist]

Still nothing in VA that I've seen

Test Tube Splinter?

And the Space Hoppin' Turtles DID come out.

Steven says that now?
Why yes I do. But Stephen says it too.

[VaughnMichael]

Test Tube Splinter?

And the Space Hoppin' Turtles DID come out.


Why yes I do. But Stephen says it too.
There was supposed to be a splinter figure like when he was in the tube when the turtles found him in the utroms building.
And the orignal Space hoppin' tmnt looked like the ones on the show.
I have pics of the sapce hopping turtles if u want to see.
And damn those comedians making sayings normal folk have been sayin' for years into trendy catch phrases lol

[Janus Prospero]

And the orignal Space hoppin' tmnt looked like the ones on the show.
I have pics of the sapce hopping turtles if u want to see.
I wouldn't mind seeing some space hoppin' turtles. Does Mikey have the tail on his?

[Jones_Casey]

sorry i meant the centaur monster

and yeah i meant the original show accurate space turtles

it just seems like a lot of good figures are not getting released and it's not right i hope it doesn't happen with the last of the movie figures

[Leonardo19]

I picked up TMNT Shredder, Sloth Monster, Extreme Sports Mikey, Jungle Leo, Surveillance Don, and Monster Capture Raph today in MO. HAUL!

My little town hasn't got the new figs yet at the local wal mart. I'm always last to get my figs:( ... and sometimes they don't ever make it here so I gotta get em online

[JetsAndHeels]

I've been searching for the Shredder figure since this thread started. So far I have found absolutely nothing new in TMNT.

I have hit several Targets, Wal-Marts, even a super K-Mart and nothing is ever stocked.

I am going to be in a different part of the state on Saturday, so hopefully I will find one somewhere. Otherwise I get the feeling I may have to order online or make a trade for one.

I found this new shredder at a pretty new wal-mart in everett ,wa. I have not boughten any tmnt since the relaunch and even then I did not buy many. I am more a joe collector so I just can't seem to bring myself to buy figures with little to no articulation. I am glad I passed on karai I think she is cool looking but I always have buyers remorse when I end up buying a teenage mutant ninja turtle toy that can't really be moved. They all end up looking great so it can be tough at times but seeing that at some stores that they are 9.99 it is easy to pass them by. Yet when I was out looking for sigma six figures there was this shredder the stockers must have just put him out since the pallets were still sitting on the sales floor. I was pretty surprized that even with taxes he came to only eight bucks. when I saw this it made me want to go back to get the turtles and casey but my significant other would have killed me.

I have not opened him yet but I think he is pretty well articulated (for being a TMNT toy:) Anyone who has opened him does he move at the wrists?

I still need to refresh my memory but I think this might end up being the best shredder yet?

[Janus Prospero]

His wrists do turn. My only complaint about the Shredder's articulation is that his elbows don't bend, they only rotate.

In the new movie line the turtles themselves have a lot of articulation though. You might be suprised.

Yeha they are made well I just wish they looked like ninja turtles and not lizards...:lol:

You mean the second wave of movie Turtles, or the ones in the line itself? I wasn't terribly impressed with the figures' articulation -- so far my favorite TMNT toys in this respect are the Fightin' Gear and Battle Nexus 2K3 figs (wish I had more of 'em). Hinged elbows are all well and good, but hinged knees aren't terribly useful without hinged ankles to keep the figures balanced.

At any rate, you people buying two Shredders (not to mention the people buying all of the new Transformers they find) are the reasons Wes gets none. :cry:

[Janus Prospero]

The line in general. The new wave are the same exact models, just with different accessories I think.

Like my purchasing of two Shredder figures in Tacoma will affect you wherever you are.

AGHH! So you're the one responsible for me not being able to get Shredder figures down here in Mexico!! DIE!!!

Cool thanks, now I may really have to open him! Yeah the turtles since the relaunch have really been well articulated. I mean it makes since, since maybe playmate feels they can spend money on giving the turtles articulation since they are more likely to recoupe the cost, but not on the other characters.

[commentor]

Okay well I opened him but his hip articulation is a little misleading he can't really move any so they could have just skipped it but I am thinking I might be able to do the boil and pop method and then shave his hips to fix this problem? Even if I don't try that, I think I will end up boiling his claws so they can be pushed back all the way on his hands.

[ToTheNines]

Nothing at my Kaybee but Mike and Don on motor cycles, and a Paleo Patrol Raph. Nothing at K-mart but one standard Mike. Nothing at wal-mart but 2 Nightwatchers. Guess this means the toys are selling like hot cakes.

[odupianist]

Hot cakes or they're from earlier shipments and just haven't sold.

[JetsAndHeels]

I've covered every Wal-Mart and Target in a 30 mile radius (went to another today) and still haven't found Shredder.
Going to try a few more tomorrow in Raleigh. If I don't track one down by then I am going to go from frustrated to down right pi$$ed. :-?

[Ninjinister]

AGHH! So you're the one responsible for me not being able to get Shredder figures down here in Mexico!! DIE!!!

(Dodges a kunai) Woah, chill dude! I haven't bought them yet! The balance couldn't have been thrown out of whack!

[Spitfire]

Went to Target again today and they had even less figures then last time. Now all they have are 2 street grinding figures.

You'd think those morons would have toys to go with the movie release but having 500 Gi Joe's and crappy Spider-man 3 figures is more important.

[Ninjinister]

Went to Toys R' Us and didn't see any new TMNT figures... bummer.

But I DID finally get my hands on the Dark Turtles! They had one of each and I snatched those motherf%*$ers up! :D

[Roseangelo]

Target seems to be in their pre-Christmas clean-out phase. Hopefully they start getting new shipments in the next couple of weeks.

[Head Spinnin' Bebop]

Lookin good, I think I'll get Shredder after all and will get Sloth and jungle Leo.

I hope they make a black mask Casey Jones. I've held off on his basic one as I'd rather have that version. With what he's wearing, it should have had the black mask and not the standard the fig is packed with.

or he should have just come with both masks.

[DTBlack]

How hard is it to paint the mask black if it really bothers you that much? It's about the easiest custom job one could do.

Which state are you in? I wish I was finding these "500" joes. I agree I wish they would get rid of all the spiderman figures But I am having to go find joes on vacation since I can't find anything in seattle. Would filling out store comment cards help stores order more figures.

[Ninjinister]

Tacoma stores have G.I. Joe figures out the butt, man.

I live in Cali

[installerray]

found shred and sloth and the variants in jersey this morning . passed on the variants , i would have taken jungle leo but that was the only one not there.

i need to find jungle leo then i got enough upc's to send away for the bigfoot .

Where in Jersey!? Were there any more Shredders?

[installerray]

this was in manville ( central jersey).
no there was only 1 shred.

[CudleyCowlick]

Went to Wal-Mart this morning, and YES SIR, all of the new movie figs are finally here in New York state, at least 'round these parts. Too bad I'm between jobs and so short on cash, because all I could get was one Shredder, the Sloth Monster and Jungle Leo will hopefully still be around when I'm ready. I also had to pass up the Nightwatcher on clearance for $15.

I'll tell you though, I wasn't the first one to get there, because I got the very last Shredder, and there was only one Sloth Monster left as well. There were 3 Jungle Leos though, so I'm thinking he must be more common, or at least less popular. Perhaps Shredder and Sloth are short-packed?

OH! and send some of those 100s of GI Joes our way: I want some 25th Anniversary figures and all Wal-Mart had left was a single Storm Shadow that looked like it went through a dishwasher. Since I was going to keep it MOC, I passed that up.

[METALHEAD]

>< target only had the monster catcher raph ONLY ONE MONSTER CATCHER RAPH the rest are old figs! walmart..pfft old figs >< BLOODY HELL! :x

[Head Spinnin' Bebop]

True, but I dont particularly like the fig all that much to begin with, so if they make a new one, good, if not, I'll just do that with the one we have.

What bigfoot? There is a free sendaway?

[SonOfZog]

Yeah, is there a "bigfoot sendaway" ??!

And where can I see the "show-accurate" space TMNT mentioned earlier in the thread?

[Wildcat]

Thats awesome....I'm glad they made a movie style Shredder....I dont have any of the villians,the mosters are nice in the movie and all,but I don't care too much about getting thier toy counter-parts....I do want a Foot-Soldier...and I definitly want this new Shredder.

EDIT:So exactly how rare is this new Shredder...I looked on ToyWiz.com(they usually have all the new toys for just about every toy line) and on Yahoo shopping and the only place I can find him is on ebay...one ebay listing even said "Rare" in the description.

Is it as rare as Robot Baxter Stockman???....I hope not....I really want this new Shredder.

Robot Stockman isn't rare anymore. It was reissued around the same time the first wave of movie figures, along with Rat King, Monster Don, Bishop, and Nobody. There's a lot more Robot Stockman out there than certain other figures that were never reissued.

OH...I see...well thats nice,Robot Baxter was ok,but I really wanted a Bishop...so Im glad to hear he was re-issued...and already have a Monster Don.

I went to my local Wal-Mart today...but...sadly....no movie Shredder :cry:

[Spitfire]

We got em here in Cali went to Walmart and they had all the new figures but Shredder and Monster Hunter Raph. I got Jungle Leo, they only had one of each...

[DTBlack]

Finally found a Shredder today at Walmart. They seem to be the only stores in the NY/NJ area getting in the second wave of figures right now as I had found reminants of the wave at a different Walmart yesterday. Definitely excited to have this guy though, I need to take a pic of him with Karai and my Foot Ninjas.

[Spitfire]

Back from a different Wal-mart. They had all the figures, including Shredder. I got him, Monster Hunter Raph, and then I got extras of Jungle Leo and Don. I just need one more Shredder and I can send in for the Big Foot Monster.

Except the Bigfoot offer doesn't start until September 1st.

[Spitfire]

Well I won't send them in until then, then.

EDIT: Alright Putrescent informed me you need receipts not proof of purchases so I'll take these back and get them next month I guess.

[Ninjinister]

Well I won't send them in until then, then.

You're SOL man. The receipts have to be dated after Sept. 1st.

[VaughnMichael]

You're SOL man. The receipts have to be dated after Sept. 1st.
yeah I just told him that on aim...I'm gonna wait I know these figures will be all over the place at some point.

[Spitfire]

You're SOL man. The receipts have to be dated after Sept. 1st.

Well lucky me I didn't open them yet then huh? I might just buy the figures I don't have yet so I don't get doubles. Or maybe just get a full set of turtle brothers and a Shredder to open.

[soccerstud652]

Except the Bigfoot offer doesn't start until September 1st.

What is the Bigfoot offer? Can you send me a link with pics / info?

[CudleyCowlick]

Bigfoot doesn't seem to be limited, I think I just may attempt to get 2 of them for my greedy grubby hands.

[METALHEAD]

finally found him today. and only one shredder too! :roll: how many shredders do they have in cases anyways?

[Spitfire]

Rumor has it 1 and from what I've heard that seems to be the truth.

[odupianist]

I was able to find Sloth, Leo, Don and Mike. No Raph or Shredder.

[Tinuvielsdreams]

grrrr this must be a Target error... There aren't any new figures at the one here either. In fact the TMNT section went from big a few months ago to pretty small and sad now : (

[Spitfire]

I think Target is dead and dry for TMNT stuff now. I suggest everyone go to Wal-mart.

[Toonami Tom]

All my Target has is a couple turtles with skateboards (the ones with the rip-cords, I never bought any) and some of the roleplaying gear. Oh and I think a turtle with a motercycle.

That's all most Targets have but right now here in pittsburgh,p.a. they are changing the store for the fall and I'm sure things will start poping up soon.:D

[Toonami Tom]

Oh ok, then hopefully all Targets will be stock full of new stuff soon.:)

[VaughnMichael]

Oh ok, then hopefully all Targets will be stock full of new stuff soon.:)
yeah I'm waiting till sept. so I can send in to playmates to get the special big foot monster figure! :)
