Nickelodeon TMNT Toys Topic
 

This is a topic for discussion, reviews, speculation, and everything else about the Nickelodeon TMNT toy line from Playmates Toys. I made this thread because the old "Playmates Toys Future Looks Bright" is pretty much dead. Anyway, there will be a complete list of toys in this post, and the post will be updated whenever new information on upcoming toys is available.

Good thread, pal!

This will make it easier to manage this specific line. :)

Thanks! It's just that the old one had SO many pages, it was very cluttered and hard to find things. Now lets see if people will actually use this thread or if they will keep adding on to the old one...

I would also split them up into the different waves. That way anyone getting into the line later on in it's life, who wouldn't be familiar with the earlier waves, would know what previous figures shipped out together. I'd even separate out Metalhead, Dogpound, and Fishface as a "wave 1.5".

I haven't been able to find Dogpound, Fishface OR Metalhead ANYWHERE! Every where I go the turtles are sold out completely.

Excellent thread Donatello19 and thank you very much, I can use this a checklist :)

I agree, about trying to get Turtle figures, it's going to be difficult due to Christmas coming up. My locale Toys "R" Us (which was hit by hurricane Sandy) has absolutely not TMNT figures, so I may have to order Baxter Stockman (The Stockman Pod) and Snakweed online if they don't fix their store by the time these figures are released. I just hope they don't go for $15 and + (plus shipping) like Metalhead, Dogpound and Fishface are, since I rather pay $8-$10 for a figure.

Can we get an edit to the title of this thread to clearly indicate it is for PLAYMATES stuff? I think we should have a different thread for LEGO stuff which is hitting store shelves very soon (possibly later in December, but if not, definitely in January)

I'm definitely getting Baxter and Snakeweed, and yes, Leatherhead, whenever that happens, but I don't care for the other new stuff coming (at least, the stuff that's been announced and shown)

Playmates... please step up your game. How about some more Classics figures, or how about some Nick TMNT figures of the same scale and quality as the Classics figures? I would so totally buy those!!

however

I am very excited about the new LEGO stuff so I'll be posting a lot in the LEGO threads :D

You and me both friend

I saw the trio once...back when I bought the Turtles, but I've only seen one Dogpound since then. I'm really hoping I can find a Splinter and a Fishface soon...

I was going to buy extra dogounds fishface and metalheads, but I didnt think people would be going to ebay for them anymore, but Im still seeing them selling for over 12$ I guess some places are scarce. When I first found them at TRu they had a peg wall with easily 50 figs and atleast two of each new one.

Well hopefully they'll be available in Canada in the New Year

^
Keep trying, I found MetalHead in WalMart, even though it was back in late October. But WalMart seems like a good place for Turtle figs.

Found fishface and metalhead at tru

I saw Metalhead, Dogpound, and Fishface at my local small Walmart right before Thanksgiving. But their toy section is chaos right now, going from 4-5 pegs of Turtles to 1 peg.

Do you guys think we'll get a figure of Spider Bites?

I highly doubt it. I'd buy him if we did, though.

It took me three trips to a bunch of different toy r us by me to find all the ones I wanted. First trip I bought Raph and Leo. Second time I got Mikey, metalhead, and shredder. Finally early this morning I found Donatello and splinter. I've seen the rest of the figures but had very little interest in getting any of them, I'm watching for Baxter (assuming he becomes the fly), leatherhead, rat king, slash ( I'm praying!), and Krang (like the actually Krang).

I had a Lair in my cart a few months ago and decided to hold off. I was kicking myself for it as of late with how hard they have been to find. To my surprise, I got on TRU's website and they had them in stock for "ship to home" today. I immediately bought one! :D I can't wait to get it and put it together. Now I won't have to display my nick turtles on my computer stand! haha

I found dog pound and fish face at target but I personally didn't like dogpound's figure enough to get it, so I got a metalhead instead.

So does any one know hoe well the new toys are selling?

With the majority of posters reporting TMNT shortages, I'd say fairly well.

My Walmart had 2 full Pallets of TMNT wave 1 toys at the beginning of November and now it's dwindled down to just a few cases. They still have 50 or so on shelves as of this morning but since I have all of wave 1, I didnt really make a checklist of all of those figures there I just saw they didnt have Dogpound or Fishface, which are the only two I need. I did pick one Kraang and one Foot (for army building) and got the heck outa dodge.

TRU has been out of everything but that cheap cell phone thingy and Leo's sword for ages, the last shipment they had was just before Black Friday, with the 1.5 releases of Metalhead, Dogpound and Fishface. I picked up Metalhead that day couldnt afford the others. Target has only Kraangs, Aprils, and Foot Soldiers nothing else.

Kmart had mostly Don's April's Splinter's Kraang's and a Shredder and no vehicles then again their asile was a wreck so they could have been elsewhere.

As for vehicles at the other stores forget about it, Shellraisers are gone, bikes too, heck even those skateboard ramps are sold out, where I am. Dont get me started on the Sewer Playset.

I just cant wait for the holidays to be over with so some of these figures and vehicles can come back in stock, I'm not buying anything on ebay right now, prices are outrageous, and the BIN's make me wanna gag. One Mike fig is 40 bucks right now. I couldnt believe it.

EDIT Changed full pallet to 2 full pallets.

My wife works at Toys R Us in Rhode Island and she says they have been blowing off the shelves as soon as they put them up! We finally managed to get Fishface and Metalhead but the four foot section of pegs are usually wiped clean in a day or two.

Certainly looks like demand is exceeding supply everywhere, my TRU just restocked for the sale they had today kind of odd they didnt on Wed. which was their truck day (but that's another story I guess) and all gone within minutes, they even had 6 sewers come in and those were the first to go, at 100+ a pop that's shocking. Even the BMF from Star Wars didnt sell out this fast. I havent seen an action figure blowout like this since Mighty Morphin Power Rangers hit big in 1993.

I've seen no shortages at the stores here... but, I live in the US's most childless city :) No kids to buy toys here, only collectors!

Fred Meyer had a 30% off sale on TMNT toys, today only! Sadly the two nearest me haven't even had a place for them for two weeks :| Makes no sense as these are literally the fastest selling toys I've seen in my life, with them restocking every 1-2 weeks over the past 3 months.

Anyone think we might get little mousers to go with the Baxter figure?

It's very doubtful. I'm thinking Baxter would be the size of Dogpound in gerth perhaps height and he would most likely take up the majority of the blister pack. Maybe with Baxter as Shredder's slave in the show now we may see a human figure. (or maybe a fly figure if the show goes that route that is.) Perhaps them we may get some Mousers.

I really hope we don't have to wait for Playmates to make a second Baxter figure to get a Mouser. There should be no reason for them not to release a set of Mousers on their own, Baxter-less. I would even consider buying two sets, to have a mini Mouser army. Even if I may not get Baxter himself, lol...

Hey I like the way u think

My 2 local walmarts, 1 target, 2 toys r us just dont have any TMNT stuff.

They shelves have a few items here and there but they are all smashed up. I can not find any vehicles anywhere.

Still havent stocked back up since black friday.

Ahhhh a fellow Rhode Islander... Welcome to the 'Drome amigo.

I agree the way that Turtles are flying off the shelves in the Ocean State is pretty impressive. I was in Toys R Us on Saturday and it was both awe inspiring and a little sad to see the shelf being picked clean by parents (Definitely should have picked up that Battle Shell Mikey for my Sister back when they were warming pegs before the show)

Still congrats on the Fishface and Metalhead. I can't remember the last time I saw them on the shelves around here

I have yet to see Dog Pound, Fish Face or Metalhead. And I really want Metalhead. Every Wal Mart I've been to has their TMNT section in shambles. They seem to be selling well in Mississippi.

Very well in the Central, PA area. My local Wal mart only had one vehicle and a few figures from wave 1. TRU had only one Leo figure and a case for a kindle. Target only had a few stragglers too. Very encouraging! Thankfully I just received my lair in the mail today to complete my Nick series wants thus far. Otherwise I would be out of luck, especially if I wanted Fishface, Metalhead or Dogpound.

My city has two Toys R Us' and a K-Mart. The K-Mart has been more useless than Beebop in a beauty pageant in terms of finding figures. The first time I went to Toys R Us (referring to it as B store since it's inferior and I have two) they only had 3 Raphs and 1 Leo so I picked them up immediately. The next day I went to Toys R US (A) and they were pretty stocked up, the only ones I didn't get that I still wanted were Splinter and Donnie. The clerk told me they would be getting a shipment of figures and vehicles Thursday at 7am so I got up early and went there to find three boxes full of just dogpound, fishface, Leo, Raph, Mikey, and Shredder. I was very upset, but I decided it was personal and I went to Toys R Us (B) in the slim hopes there would be something to salvage this early morning adventure. Thankfully they had 2 Donnies and 1 Splinter, I was so happy, but I guess the point of this story is here on Staten Island the figures are still pretty hard to find.

Our TRU had the classic Turtles a few months ago and after that they never received anymore of them.If the Classic Turtles did this great,playmates would be morons not to continue Classics line.The guys from that line have been hard to find.

I haven't seen those anywhere near me, Donnie was even hard to find online but I finally got a group deal on all 4 of them.

My Walmart has a pretty small TMNT section; about 1/5th of an aisle. It's always stocked full, but I haven't seen wave 1.5 yet, or any vehicles but the Shellraiser (and they only had one). They did add the FX figures the last time I was there. I think the toys are just trickling in slowly here, or they're waiting until people buy the plethora of Raphaels before putting back-stock out.

Thats good I was hoping that ti was doing good as. The walmart I go to the most seems to always be out of stock. I just dint know if it was from not ordering in or from them selling so fast. I want to get a birthday present for my little cuz last wkend and the only thing they had was a talking shredder.

Need more Kraang for your Kraang army? Amazon has Kraang for 6.99 (with free 2 day shipping if you are a prime member). Limit 3 per customer.

*edit* price back to 9.99 already! that was fast.

Well, that stinks. $6.99 is a great price.
