Big Foot figures are shipping
 

I received the two I ordered today. Unfortunately they do ship in plain white boxes with no further packaging inside. I'll try to post some photos shortly.

Cool, couple questions I haven't been keeping up.

1) When does this end?

2) Can we use mini figures purchases from family dollar?

1) 12/31/2007

2) unknown.

Sheesh, how do you make this post without pictures? Shame on you.

Did you send out for yours on the 1st? I'm kind of disappointed but not surprised in the packaging.

I am as well nice to know Playmates thought more highly of the simpsons than the toy line that put their company on the map.

Pictures!!!

Huh? If your meaning the Playmates Simpsons mail-away pair of Cooder and Sinclair (ha, that rhymes!) -- they were in a white box too.
The only Simpsons mail-aways that had actual 'package' boxes were the ToyFare ones.

Those be what I'm talkin' about. yar!

That's not entirely true. Cooder and Sinclair were in baggies in the shipping box. But most of the other mail in figures that they did later were in boxes.

Can we see pictures of Bigfoot? Please!?!?!

I'll try to get some tonight if I can.

How about a review on your site? Your review on the Donatello statue was kind of helpful when I decided to bid on a Mikey statue (and win!) last month. I'm sure there are quite some European/Australian/Asian fans considering to get the Bigfoot on ebay. So a Bigfoot review could be very helpful to them.

And because I would just like to read it if you did one. :D

That means I got mine too-- I've been ordering so much stuff off of e-bay that it didn't even occur to me that that's what those might be. So they didn't even bag them? All that means is that I'll have an extra to sell if the price is right, bwa ha ha ha ha I'm so evil... :x:P

Yeah. That's what I was thinking.

None have hit e-bay yet-- I wonder if I can be the first one? ;)

I'm going to pretend that you never said that so I can think you're a human. :D

Thanks, how big is it? Not to impressed thus far.

Bigger than Hun. It wouldn't have fit into any normal figure package.

All this hype over such an ugly character...lol. The toy looks quite large. How many points of articulation? Its mouth is permanently open huh? Well, I should be getting mine in a few days, but so far, I am not impressed with what I am seeing from Playmates. Begining posts said there was no packaging beyond the box, but I consider the plastic bag packaging. The part that says "TMNT Big Foot Figure", is that on the outside of the box? Can you take a pic of the box that it was delivered in? It sounds weird, but I am weird...lol. Thanks.

Can someone link to the other thread about this? I can't find it.

Bwa ha ha ha ha!

Any questions?

Got mines today as well..these shipped pretty fast! Still waiting for my second one to come in to open up....

A hundred bones?!?! If that sells I am gonna be disappointed in humanity. It would cost 25 right now with Target and Wal-Mart having them on sale AND you would have three figures to boot. :tsick: <--- Me right now.

that guy on ebay took it out of the plastic too, if someone was going to pay that much I would at least want it mint...what a dumbass. I didn't take mine out of the bag, but it looks like each arm has 2 points of articulation. The box is just all white aside from where my address was put on it, the only thing worth seeing is the tmnt logo that I posted the picture of, everything else is just white.


edit...looks like he got two, sorry to the ebay guy.

If anyone has an extra and would sell it to me at a reasonable amount, please pm me.

That "dumbass" is me, Pal...and if you read the item description (which you didn't) you'd see that the one in the picture is from my own personal collection, and that the one they are getting is still sealed in it's original bag and box.

edit: Just saw your edit...guess you went back and actually read the item description...

It just wouldn't be a Bigfoot thread without a picture like this

Here's a few more that I took. I won't post them all since the size comparison is the only one that hasn't already been shown.

more photos

Darth, what is your reserve? No offense, but I think the $99 BIN is a little excessive, and may scare potential buyers away.

In the old thread he wrote this:

The reserve is probably $50. $99 is just a tad bit excessive being that they are still available and you only have to buy 3 figures, spend 5 bucks on a money order and splurge on a 41 cent stamp.

Ya, I wouldn't spend more than $20 on one because you could buy one yourself for around $20. (3 figs cost + shipping). Well if anyone has an extra and isn't looking for absorbant prices, Pm me.

It's funny because I thought that was reasonable. I wouldn't have even put a BIN because you are THE FIRST. These may skyrocket. People with alot of money would easily drop $100 to:
-not go to the store
-not pay for 3 figures
-not cut out the UPCs
-not fill out the form
-not write a check for $5
-not go to the mailbox and.....
-not wait 6-8 weeks for shipping
I am interested to see how this all works out. I also wonder how many we will see show up on ebay over the next couple of days.

If people are that lazy they need to get a life seriously. The new tmnt second wave figures are all over the place now and pretty well stocked at walmarts so it's not that hard to do this.

The only thing for me is that wow the size of this thing is disappointing it should be huge playmates can make huge dinosaurs and yeti yet they can't even make a character that's actually from tmnt the correct size.

It's all about supply and demand. I bet it will go high and the market will drop in it. Should be fun to watch. I hope you get $2500 for it.

:) :)

damn..Im kind of glad I didnt go to all the trouble and wait in anticipation for this damn big foot offer.
I am sorry if that makes me any less of a fan but it doesnt seem too impressive at all. Im all about casing
and the lack there of sucks. Not much attention to detail when it comes to that. And i understand that
he's supposed to be a big dude that clumsily moves around but barely any points of articulation on that piece.

Glad i passed on this one.

Here's one, how do you live with yourself scalper?

I actually feel bad for him...

Mail-Aways aren't worth gold.

Ghost Obi-Wan has suffered the same fate.

Well, if I told you the reserve, that wouldn’t be any fun, now would it? As soon as the reserve is met or exceeded, I’ll tell you what it was.

I like your thinkin’! 

It’s not necessarily laziness. Some of the kids out there already have all the movie TMNT toys; if the line hadn’t done well, we wouldn’t have seen all those prototype pics for next Spring and next Fall. So who is going to buy their kid three more TMNT toys if they’ve already got them all? Besides, some people probably think it only applies to the basic figures and didn’t bother to read the fine print. This is a rich country. A man or woman making between $50,000 and $100,000 a year doesn’t have time to cut out those UPCs, circle receipts (and Xerox them in case they need the receipt for something else), fill out the form, and put it in the mail. It’s like paying a bill and most people already have enough of those. I’ve sent away for five Big Foots so far and I’m getting ready to send away for one more…

You’d be surprised at the things one can live with…

Well I think I'll see the reserve once someone bids over it...

Yeah it's not like your beating people up or are a lying politician. Sheesh people get outta control. If you don't like it, don't buy it. Simple, really.
