Cool news. Any pictures, scans, reviews you can give us on these. Especially pictures or scans. It looks like they broke up the shipping, so they probably shipped Shredder, Foot Gunner, and Elite Guard first. And then the next wave will have the turtles. :)
Awesome find, were their any sign of the new vehicles? Im curious as to how much the shell sub will cost ill have to check for the figures when I go out today

Hey, Ok, to answer the questions...there were no "Battle Armor" Turtles, nor any new vehicles (Which is good, I need the money!) If you give me a little time, I could most likely have scans up by later today.

Thanks a lot for the pics I can't wait to get them, now if I could only find nano and foot tech in a store here in PA.
Ooh, yay! I'm so grabbing that Elite. And maybe the Shredder. *wonders how long it'll be before she can go shopping*

i just want to ask y'all how long time ago the first new tmnt action figs came out on the market in the U.S???
Splinter
11-05-2003, 02:09 PM
It was just before Christmas of 2002, if I recall correctly. They may have hit at the end of November, or Early December. :)
Michaelangelo|DAH
11-05-2003, 02:25 PM
ok that is why it is so cheap now, we just got em here in Denmark. but the TMNT figs which was out at first do they still sell them in U.S.A, even though there has been other waves meanwhile???
Kid Icarus
11-05-2003, 02:38 PM
yeah, they've re-released the 4 turtles a few times already, once with each new wave of toys. not sure if they'll do that when the armor turtles come out or not though.
Michaelangelo|DAH
11-05-2003, 02:55 PM
ok i just wanted to know if you HAD to buy them right away, well thanks

*nods* I've been waiting for these to come out. I got some extra money (finally), and it's been burning a hole in my pocket. Now I've got something good to spend it on. (Though, I should be saving it, but by buying these I can now justify spending it to myself :) )

11-05-2003, 04:09 PM
yeah well, i'm still stuck with the first wave here in Denmark, but i'm goona go to bed now, have a very good night see ya tomorrow
Wow, these new figs are coming out sooner than expected! I mean, didnt they just come out with Nano and Tech?! I'm not complaining, but man this is so cool that they are comin out with the figs pretty continuously...cant wait till payday!!!

11-05-2003, 08:59 PM

no new tmnt figures.....but I did pick up the new muppet figures gotta fix my muppet cravings...
I'm gonna check walmart tommrow

11-06-2003, 07:27 AM
damn you guys are lucky, maybe i should take a short trip the US or UK.
well how much does the figs cost in USA when they have just been released,
here in Denmark they cost 15 $
just want to know :wink:
Splinter
11-06-2003, 07:29 AM
Figures here in the U.S. are just under $6.00. Except for Wal-Mart, who currently has TMNT figures on sale for $4.77. Unfortunatly at the Wally World I stopped at they were basically sold out. They had 2 Bikin' Dons. :)
Michaelangelo|DAH
11-06-2003, 07:49 AM
ok, and it's 6 $ when they have just been released, that's cheap, then it is mmando expensive here in Denmark

Yep. And the vac-metal armor peices that are removable. Basically the shoulder peices, arm peices, claw gauntlet, and shin guard peices. :)

I just hope I find'em in the stores soon, as I still haven't found the Nano monster or the foot tech ninja yet either. :(

I spotted the elite and gunner on the shelves at target, on my way out i saw a amorized shredder in a cart

11-08-2003, 06:06 PM
Man, I still can't find them. It's only been a few days, but still... Hopefully they get sent to stores near me soon. I think I'm starting to drive my family nuts with checking stores so much. :wink:

My freind checked a few TRU's today for me, but they didn't have them....They also didn't have Spawn series 24, or Marvel Legnds five...grrrrrrrrrr.......
I only managed to find about 2 or 3 Foot Gunners at Target. In a bit of good news, I went to my local Wal*Mart and they barely had any figures left.
Looks like Target is the place to get em for now...i've still had no luck though... :-?

this makes me wonder if Target has some kind of deal made with Playmates, 'cause around here they seem to have the figures a few weeks before the other stores get them.

I checked walmart before my trip back to texas and found nothing...actullly the shelves had like 5 figures on them I guess the sale sold allot of them..
I am in texas as of today now and went to target and found nothing....

My target hasn't put anything new on the shelves since that 4.89 sale.
i wish i knew when they put new stuff out. i remember one sunday morning i went there and they had just out new figures on the pegs. I found a foot tech ninha and a nano. i only got one though

I don't think the Fightin' Armor TMNT figures are out yet. I've seen no reports of them being found. So I believe they probably devided the wave up into two seperate waves. :)

I'm convinced Wal-Mart doesn't have these yet. I've been there again today after they stocked up again and no new figs yet.

Walmart in So.Cal. has them.

I finally found the Foot Elite and Foot Gunner at Wal-Mart. The lazy bums finally got off their butts and restocked the shelves. I checked Kay Bee, Target, Toys R Us, and found nothing. I did find a nice cartoon sourcebook at Toys R Us for 89 cents though.

Don't resort to Ebay, unless you're desperate. The TMNT figures arn't hard to find by any means. Just have patience, and don't line the pockets of a scalper just to have figures a week or so earlier. :)

I agree...i only get tmnt stuff on ebay that i cant find in the stores today...which is pretty much all the original toy line, movies, etc..

I found the foot elite guard at a Wal-mart here in Orlando, Fl. They had the amorized Raph and mikey also. No sign of Amorized Shredder or the Foot Gunner yet though. :( I got beat by other fan boys I guess. Oh well, try Target tomorow and keep checking back at Wal-mart I guess.

11-23-2003, 03:18 AM
I went to my super wal-mart tonight the shelves were almost empty but what was left was a few of each new tmnt figures...I was shocked
I got the new
Armorized Shredder
Foot Gunner
Foot Elite Guard
Fightin' Gear Raph
Fightin' Gear Don
Fightin' Gear Leo
Fightin' Gear Mike
they are all realy nice toys the paint job on shrdders new head is wonderfull better then what we saw at the toy shows......Leo is my fave fighting gear tmnt figure...with don in second...but yea the armor comes off and they are extreamly articulated more so then It orignaly showed in the pictures....
I am really loving these new toys ooooo I almost forgot I got the last shredder they had I think he is being short packed but not sure they had a few of the others but just 1 shredder....if knowing anything about these chromized figures he will be shortpacked infact something may happen or they may have it planned not to have him out long so if I were you I'd buy him before the others...because in the past they have had problems with those types of figures ..but all in all theres not a figure from this set I don't love....

I went back to my Wal-mart today in Orlando. They repacked their shelves and I got my Foot gunner and armorized shredder now. They had 3 armorized shredder's with only one foot gunner and one foot elite. I think the distribution for those are probably about the same.
So I'm all caught up on my figs again. When does the next wave come out? And what will be in it?
rayfillet101
11-23-2003, 07:58 PM
The only one I know about is the figures that are coming out in April/ May. I beleive that is Stonebitter, Quarry, and Razorfist, and the Evil Turtlebot. Im not sure though...

Savanti Romero
11-23-2003, 08:40 PM
Ha ha! My Wal-Mart got a new shipment! I got the 2 foot, armor Shredder, and all the Armor Turtles. The Armor Turtles are the best figures to come out so far! They move at the ankle, the nee, the toes, the fingers, the wrist, the elbow and more. They're better than the normal versions! And they come with all that armor!
