Karai is on the loose and DVD figures to boot.
 
Karai is out there! I found mine at walmart tonight. Happy hunting. You'll also find some of the earlier figures, such as the sports figures and the triceratons in the new packaging with DVDs in them, the first three episodes.

Sweet!!! At last!!!! Tomorrow, I make the rounds...

Jed 10-21-2005 02:35 AM

Great! I think I'll order off eBay, it'll make a nice Christmas present from a loved one:P

Zachatello00 10-21-2005 04:05 AM

I didn't realize this until I got the figure, but you can remove all the shredder armor to make it just a basic Karai figure. I was happy about that.

MaxGoof 10-21-2005 07:01 AM

Hey--that's AWESOME! I don't suppose you can post pictures?

Also, are any of the other rare figures shipping in the DVD wave that you know of? Minnetokka Mutant, Gen, Foot Tech Ninja, Foot Soldier, General Mozar, Draco?

Also--where are you located in the country? Without knowing that, it's impossible to guess what parts of the country these have hit...

Thats great nes to hear as a number of people were pretty unimpressed by how Karai looked...that is definately a plus...any pics would be great! :)

Found a Karai at Walmart today. I can't take pics since my digi cam finally crapped out on me. She looks good, a little thinner that I thought, going from the online pics I saw of her. Still, I am happy to finally see new figures out. THey had Usagi, and Triceraton Warriors in the new packages. Anyways I am in ILLINIOS so keep an eye out .:D

OA 10-25-2005 08:12 PM

So they finally reissued Usagi...thats good for the many that missed him the first time around...and i've been seeing the Triceraton Warriors (and buying them) already which is sweet cuz I'm still workin on the army (curently at 40)..hopefully , they pull out more utroms...didn't get enough the first time around...

Jester 10-25-2005 08:16 PM

All of you've found her and still no pics....Blast you!

OA 10-25-2005 08:22 PM

Yea i know...good point...bring on the pics!!!

aramconbrat 10-25-2005 10:37 PM

She and Minnetonka Mutant have hit Ebay (finally) but the prices are a bit too high for me right now... I want them both!

Karai:

Minnetonka Mutant:

So hey, if anyone sees "tons" of them and is willing to strike up a deal... Definately let me know :P

Jester 10-25-2005 10:54 PM

I shall search....and then I'll post other pics...:p

Jed 10-26-2005 07:18 AM

The figures seem to be coming with a random DVD from the 3 available. I wonder if there are 3 diffrent stock codes per figure depending on the DVD :|

If anyone can get a few Karais or Minnetonka Mutants I'd love to make a deal with them so I could get one of each in time for Christmas (after aramconbrat of course, she asked first:) )

It's weird how hardly any Utroms came out in the US, there were tons available here! I think I pretty much bought them all to send to people overseas. There were tons of Gens too, the last time I checked there was still one in each toystore that I go to. A lot of Usagis are around these parts aswell. Maybe someone will want to trade for a Karai or Minnetonka Mutant?

We are after the same figures at the same time. We just need to find one person who will take care of both of our TMNT needs Jed :D

Yep, still haven't seen the Utrom here... I got mine and my sister's bf's Utrom from Jed... One of my favorite figures by far!

Toonami Tom 11-12-2005 10:30 AM

I looked for her when I went to Wal*Mart to buy the Star Wars Episode 3 DVD, with no luck at all. I hope I find Karai soon. I don't go out to the stores as much as I used to so it may be awhile before I find her.

OA 11-12-2005 12:09 PM

I've been seeing all of the figures with DVD with some regularity lately, except for the Minnetonk which I've only seen once (and bought)...also only have seen 2 Gens (which I bought both also)...

Mandi-chan 11-13-2005 06:35 AM

I found Usagi and Karai!

Usagi looks great, Karai is okay...she doesn't really look like Karai though. More like Xena...

For all you Leo fans...

This is what it looked like outta the box....

But I did this...

So I could do this...

very nice, Jester! :)

Toonami Tom 11-13-2005 05:12 PM

Thanks for the pics, those are great! I like the Leo VS Karai showdown, and you did a very good job making your utrom look like "Same as it Never Was" Shredder! Sweet!

Jester 11-13-2005 05:13 PM

New pic....I knew that katana from Brown Costume Wolvie'd come in handy....Only April and Karai can hold it and make it look this good....
http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y13...o/P1010081.jpg

aramconbrat 11-13-2005 05:13 PM

I may have to get another Utrom and another Karai just to do that! Very cool!

Toonami Tom 11-13-2005 06:25 PM

Awesome picture, and I had no idea April could hold Marvel Legends 6 Wolverine's sword. I going to give that sword to April now.:)

Toonami Tom 11-19-2005 06:52 PM

What's Karai's articulation? I hope she has balljoint shoulders. I am paying $20.00 for one online, so I hope she's really cool.

Jed 11-19-2005 06:58 PM

$20? That's fairly dear, I got mine for $12 when she was still hard to find and you can probably get her even cheaper now. I'm sure there's BINs on ebay for $10, or someone here would help you out and sell you one at cost.

Yeah, a friend at the Technodrome helped me get two of them for about $6 a piece before shipping so $20 is pretty expensive. I'd only pay that for the Nanotech at this point, and I have dozens of Nanotechs.

If you are overly eager to get the new figures, then I guess the price is reasonable... but if you wait until they aren't the 'newest' thing, then you can get them at cost or find that the amazing people on here will help you get them at cost!

Toonami Tom 11-20-2005 12:17 AM

Thanks guys. I feel like I'm obligated to buy the figure for $20.00 now though.

Jester 11-20-2005 12:24 AM

Articulation is basically big five (head, both arms and both legs) but the waist and wrists are also articulated so what's that 8?

Toonami Tom 11-20-2005 12:55 AM

Thanks for the reply about the articulation. Yeah, that's 8 points of movement. Playmates should really give these figures more articulation. All the characters know martial arts afterall, so they should be able to do some awesome poses. Well, it's almost 2:00 AM, I am tired.

Jester 11-20-2005 12:59 AM

Re-reading your first artulation post...nope, just cut arms and legs...:(

and I got her for under $5...:P

Toonami Tom 11-22-2005 07:40 PM

Well I didn't buy the Karai figure for $20, I will just keep looking for her in the stores or online for a cheaper price.

Jester 11-22-2005 07:50 PM

Wal*Mart has her for a bitmor ethan I got her.....about $6 now.

Turtle Dove 11-25-2005 10:31 PM

Hey ppl- that's great! I got a Karai too, found the guardian ninja guy too :)

Artistix 11-30-2005 06:23 PM

I just grabbed a Karai off eBay....& I'm excited:D

I have been waiting for her for a while....along with Bishop & that new Baxtor Stockman.

For some reason, the guy I bought her off said she will not be coming with a CD! I'm not sure why, I think he said she didn't have one, but he is sending me a free figure for this! (I think it's because the auction pic featured the disk)

What is on the disk anyway? one of Karai's main episodes I gather?

I am also stoked we are getting the second female in the new line.

Jester 11-30-2005 09:25 PM

Actually....nope....I think my Karai's disk was episode 2.....

Jed 12-01-2005 03:46 AM

The disc that comes with her is a bonus DVD and you get one of three with a figure, they're put in at random so you can get any combination of figure and DVD. The DVDs have one episode each from the new toon, Things Change, A Better Mousetrap and Attack of the Mousers (first three episodes of Season One). I think my Karai came with Things Change but I'm not sure:-?

Drtooth 12-01-2005 02:02 PM

While I was intregued by the Karai I saw in Target, I was more interrested in the rerelease figures, since I FINALLY got a hold of the Fugitoid.

Remember when people had problems looking for Gen and the reast due to heavy orders of TMNT varients? I've had that trouble since LAST year. Now, if they only rereleased Traximus, The Triceriton General, the Utrom and The Silver Sentry, I'd be happy.

Toonami Tom 12-01-2005 10:19 PM

I got Karai for an early Christmas present! She is awesome!:D
