New Movie figures are OUT
Check your meijers. They've started hitting, I'm in Chicago but I heard Michigan is getting them too. All I got was Casey Jones, the rest were gone or not put out. I'll try and take pics soon. They were $1 more than usual ($6.99) but they'll probably be a bit cheaper at Wal-Mart.
Happy hunting! http://img440.imageshack.us/img440/3104/pic0002tn8.jpg Not just the midwest (though that's where Meijer is) this also means wal-mart/target/toysrus should be getting them in any day now, so keep checking around!

This is only if you live in the Midwest.

This is totally awesome! I can't wait to get some movie figures!:D
|
Sweet! just in time for the holidays....:D

Turtles were on eBay from someone in Michigan (no doubt got them from Meijer) but they went for $30+. I'm thinking of selling the Casey and just buying another when they're everywhere, I don't like him very much, it's the turtles alone (maybe Splinter) that I can't wait for. A meijer around here had the 3 turtles but not Leo so I decided not to go (it was an hour away) the others sold out in one day.
I don't think they'll hit in full force until after Christmas. I have a feeling TRU will be the first other than Meijer to get them so keep on the lookout! |
Hmmm since I'm in Michigan I'll go see if miejers have any tommorrow
Raph and leo look he best to mehttp://i5.ebayimg.com/03/i/000/7f/d9/174d_3.JPG |
Newest report is that they're hitting wal-marts on the west coast now. Yeah I really really can't wait for Leo and the other turtles. The rest is meh. Good luck finding them Syk. If you don't need to really go to meijers for anything other than turtles I suggesting calling ahead. That way you don't waste gas if they don't have anything. All the meijers I called were able to help me by telling me if they were sold out in the computer or still in stock and then if they're in stock you just run over as fast as you can, because they won't hold anything for you them bastards.

I bought the 4 TMNT, Splinter, April, Casey, and Foot Ninja last night at Meijers.:) These are the best TMNT figures ever!:D They are bigger too. Everyone, including the turtles are about an inch or 2 bigger than the 2k3 figures. So cool! Good luck to everyone on finding them.
|
I might try my local Wally World, which is 10 miles away. The regional TRU did not have much a couple days ago. This is the only TRU within a 100 mile radius.
|
I have a feeling I'll be getting some o' these guys for Christmas. My mom isn't done Christmas shopping for me, so that means she'll be going to TRU on Saturday to get me a few o' these guys. She'll be going there anyways to get me the Luke Skywalker X-wing from the Star Wars Saga Collection, which is an exclusive.
|
I'm headed home to the Midwest for Christmas. I'll definitely have to have a look around my local Walmarts and Meijers. :)
|
This is awesome, I live in the Midwest!:D :D :D

Mini review, gotta keep it short I'm going out of town tomorrow and have to drive for over 12 hours. I'm not even packed yet so here goes.
http://img318.imageshack.us/img318/5028/pic0010jn9.jpg Boy have the koopas gotten big! http://img318.imageshack.us/img318/6738/pic0011xi9.jpg Here's a brief timeline. You can see the scale of the turtles by comparing with your older figures. http://img322.imageshack.us/img322/9876/pic0012xw9.jpg You thought the dark turtles were big... these guys are bigger! http://img132.imageshack.us/img132/5242/pic0013ca0.jpg Close up! Ok these guys are really well done. Best turtles ever really. I was a bit worried the legs wouldn't be good but you can actually have them sit down this time around (or high kick). They don't have ball joint legs which isn't bad because I don't care for the look of the giant testicle hips marvel legends have, but because of this you won't be able to do a side kick. They really have excellent articulation otherwise! The head sculpts are iffy, check the pics to see if you like them. I think Leo and Raph have the best headsculpts. Don's is good too but for some reason his head looks a little odd. I think they had to do something different to accomodate for his goggles. Mikey has spaced out eyes which are freaky. It seems like you might be able to get a mikey with properly placed eyes so when buying these figures keep an "eye" out for a decent Mikey with properly painted eyes. More pics coming up. |

Leo's glider clips on over this belt. It's kind of cheapy but not bad an accessory. http://img127.imageshack.us/img127/4032/pic0015hw1.jpg They did a weird color on Raph, I don't know if he'll actually be like this in the movie. He's got the most different skin color out of all of them, the rest are pretty similar to each other. I kind of like Raph's different skin, and overall all these guys need a better paint job (if you're a customizer have fun!). They look cartoony and not dark like the movie scenes we've seen. Also this is the first time EVER don hasn't been BROWN. http://img319.imageshack.us/img319/3078/pic0016wx8.jpg http://img135.imageshack.us/img135/5964/pic0017bx4.jpg http://img226.imageshack.us/img226/9326/pic0018hn9.jpg http://img319.imageshack.us/img319/4853/pic0019jg8.jpg Scale to Marvel Legends. Hawkeye is about average size for that toyline, donny is a bit bigger. http://img209.imageshack.us/img209/6805/pic0020sp0.jpg |
They look so cool, I can't wait for them over here!! Thanks for the pics.

I found a bunch tonight! I picked up Mike, Don, Raph, Splinter, and April (no Leo and Casey had a bad paint job) as well as the Nightwatcher bike/figure. They also had the Cowabunga Carl van, the rip cord Mike, and the 2-pack with Mike and one of the baddies. None of the last ones appeal to me, so I didn't get them. I'll post some pictures later after I get them opened.

Yeah it's signed by Ernie. I met him at a con and he's the coolest guy. My dream is to get it signed by all of the gb, I don't think I'll have a problem except for Bill. It was actually Ernie's picture he was selling, I really hope that guy gets some bigger movie deals he really deserves it.
Still pissed Murray wouldn't sign off on an action figure... He doesn't deserve one with that attitude (who am I kidding I'd buy 3). Good luck to everyone on finding them, if anyone wants to take pics of the cowabunga carl van I'd appreciate it, it looks really old school party wagon-ish which means a definite must buy for me. And Merry Christmas/Happy Holidays to everyone on the Drome. I'm going out of town and have to drive and I don't know why I'm not asleep yet! |
Here's my stash from tonight:
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v3...tmnt-stash.jpg And the guys unpacked: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v3...lo/newfigs.jpg Didn't find Leo tonight; he must still be in South America. Oh, and I have to say that I had concerns for the Mikey figure from the pictures I was seeing (and even in the above picture he looks a little too happy), but in person it actually looks quite good. |

..flip ..that Casey looks kinda bad a55 !! :o |
So... I found 8 figures today. The 8th after I had bought my first 7. I found all four turtles, April, Splinter and Casey. I haven't seen anyone who has had April yet. I found the Foot Soldier afterward, but I'm going to need to go back and get him later. I'm direly waiting for the Shredder Figure. That's first on my list after all of them.
This is pretty much my christmas gift to myself since I'm not getting anything from anyone. I did get Fast Forward Leo for a secret santa gift. I also bought TMNT Vol. 6 for myself too. I spent about $50. I found them at Meijer for $4.99 a piece. Why? I was kinda drunk and didn't read the sign properly. It said all Ninja Turtle Figures $4.99. I missed the fine print that said Regular $5.99. These figures were $6.99 a piece originally. However, it's their loss... Not mine. Here are some pics... http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e1...T/100_1337.jpg All of the figures on the entertainment center in my living room. (No, I don't watch hockey that much... I was watching Sportscenter when I got home!) http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e1...T/100_1338.jpg Leo http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e1...T/100_1345.jpg Don http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e1...T/100_1340.jpg Mike http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e1...T/100_1341.jpg Raph http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e1...T/100_1342.jpg Splinter (Which to me is one of the best Looking figures EVER.) http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e1...T/100_1343.jpg April (I'm still not too fond of her, but I decided to go ahead and buy here anyway.) http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e1...T/100_1344.jpg Casey (On of th best Casey figures. Hopefully this one actually stands when you stand it up!) http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e1...T/100_1347.jpg This is the back of the card showing what figures are available. Karai is the first baddy listed. Max Winters looks like he's going to be a great figure! I love how it lists them "The Green" "The Good" and "The Ugly!" That cracks me up!!! |
Nice find. thanks for posting those pics. Mind If I ask what part of...um..the world your living in? I live in the bay area, but I have yet to check stores for these figures.
|
bad a55

..d4mm that's cool.. !! |
I live in Indiana USA. I found the figures at a Meijer store. I'm trying to take a better picture of the back of the card, but it will be a while before I get a chance to seeing as tomorrow is Christmas.

haha thanks toKKa, I have to say I'm quite fond of your imagination stretching avatars, sigs, and such. Dont get me wrong, I love venom but I basically chose that because it matched my avatar haha

Got another set of turtles at the super wal-mart.
The case is as follows: 1 of each turtle april splinter casey foot that's all, the rest aren't out yet. I have them all so far, april n' casey are staying the package for eternity. Foot soldier isn't as bad in person but he still has weird proportions. Have yet to find the nightwatcher raph or the deluxe turtles or the talking turtles or the van or the playset, oh my. So much stuff. |
I got these three guys for Christmas:
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v7...s/MVC-149F.jpg Street Grindin' Donatello is pretty cool for a figure with a skateboard attached to him. Wal-Mart didn't have the regular Turtles, so my mom got me a deluxe one instead. |

-->> ..van is so the best .. no d4mm Figures at Wal-mart here d4mmit.. so confusing.. but they have the Van And Motor Cycle Night Watcher.. gee whizz !! ?? !@#@##$#@$#%^%*^&%%$#$@!!?
http://www.terrible2z.com/meamtokka/...unga-carl1.jpg http://www.terrible2z.com/meamtokka/...unga-carl2.jpg http://www.terrible2z.com/meamtokka/...unga-carl3.jpg http://www.terrible2z.com/meamtokka/...unga-carl4.jpg |
Those figures are kinda cool. I'd definitely buy Raph, Leo, April and Karai. Don looks so-so but Mike was defintely given a wierd-ass face sculpt. Of the monsters, I'd probably buy that bat thing if he's bad-ass in the movie.
|
They aren't including Ubisoft game demo discs yet, huh?
|
..no Ubi-soft disks .. (yet!?)
|
Nice score, Tokka!!!
And that van is really growing on me! |
Especially after looking at the new pictures that came out... I love General Gato's design. Jaguars are just awesome like that.
|
Got the nightwatcher set, $16 is kind of expensive for a crappy motorcycle and a Raph figure. I'm still awaiting the van and now I guess the 2 packs, as well as the deluxe skating figures (those I probably won't buy though). I wasn't going to buy many of the figures but I'm getting this huge old school cartoon vibe and I can't help it when I find something new at the store. The cowabunga carl van is the main offender. Cowabunga, pizza, party wagon, it's the old cartoon brought back to life! I have a feeling that cowabunga carl is going to be the throwback for all those who grew up with the original cartoon, but the rest of the movie should be more TMNT movie vibe. Seems like a nice mix to me, I can't wait for this movie now!
I wonder why the 4kids logo is on the packaging though? |

I went to the Target near my house today. I was surprised how many figures they had. They had all the basic ones(TMNT, Sensei, April, Casey, Foot Ninja), plus the Nightwatcher cycle, the Cowabunga Carl Van, all the role playing gear, big talking Don and Raph, and 2 of the 2-packs(Don vs Mono and Mikey vs Serpentine).
I got all 4 of the turtles, though I was a little mad that they raised the prices. That being said, I really love these toys. |
I picked up the Foot Soldier and Nightwatcher figures the other night... WALMART IS EFFING EXPENSIVE!!! I recommend trying to find them elsewhere before wally world. Anyway - I'm going to be hanging these up soon. I now have all the available basic figures until Max Winters and Karai comes out - And Shredder. Once that toy is out, I'm first in line to get it!!! When I get them up, I will take updated pictures of my office wall.
