What case to use to protect my 2012 TMNT figures?

[KenStole]

Just finished collecting all the Nick 2012 TMNT figures today. Damn Splinter was a PITA to find. Thanks to my wife who came across one in Kmart this afternoon hidden behind some other toys. I guess someone hid it to purchase later. Gotta love her! All of them are all in a box now and planning on storing them in a plastic storage bin tomorrow for the meantime. Until I can figure out what's the best case out there for its carded size. Thought my spare Protech case would fit but doesn't. Don't want my new TMNT carded figures to bend/crease. New to the forum so please be gentle. LoL. Thanks.

Can't believe you had trouble finding Splinter in your area, he's a pegwarmer at all of the stores here. A couple of the local Wal Marts have no turtles, just foot soldiers and Splinters.

Welcome aboard!

One Toys R Us I went to had only Aprils and Kraangs. There had to be at LEAST 30 Aprils there, and probably 10-15 Kraangs. Not a turtle in sight!

OMG. Splinters is now a real PITA to find here in NY/NJ. Nothing but Turtles and the Shellraiser vehicle. I've previously searched for him through every Walmart, Kmart, Target, Mom & pop stores and nothing. Luckly the other day my wife found him but his backcard have creases on the top holder and the front sticker is half way peeled. For $7.88 @ Kmart I just took it. Afraid I might not find him again and wasnt in the mood to pay $15-$20 on eBay for a Splinter figure that might arrive in the same similar condition.

Thanks for the welcome:tgrin:

Can you believe Toys R Us want almost $45 for the Shellraiser and Walmart is asking for just $30! SmH
Walmart is where I always do my TMNT shopping lol

For me Metalhead, Fishface and Dogpound are PITA to find as they're not available in Canada yet

Don't feel too bad. I still have not seen a single one in store in KC. Had a boardie not helped me out, I still would not have them.

Wow, that sux. There's a bunch of those HTF figures here in NY. If you need help getting them ill purchase them for you and u can reimburse me. Better than buying all three for $60+ on eBay.

I was able to pick up the whole 9 fig basic set from playmates online for a cool $80.. Granted it came with a error Donnie (2 left hands) but they are sending a replacement so Im all good :) I have yet to get to a store in my area of NY but I will report when I get the chance. As for a case I kinda keep them in there package (though they are opened) in the Factory issued box ;)

If I dont find a protective clear case to protect my 2012 figures, Then I guess Ill just buy a bin and store them in there and hide them in the closet.:sad:

[milo2367]

Don't worry I emailed playmates and they said it might be in the works

Playmates making protective cases? I doubt that...

We'll just have to wait and see.

I asked them to make a turtle shell case to be in theme plus remember that case that stored the original figures.It might be a protective case.
