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. :)

Pher 11-05-2003 08:23 AM

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

facelessmanXLT 11-05-2003 09:21 AM

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.

Kali 11-05-2003 12:13 PM

Ooh, yay! I'm so grabbing that Elite. And maybe the Shredder. *wonders how long it'll be before she can go shopping*

Michaelangelo|DAH 11-05-2003 01:30 PM

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

cqb101 11-05-2003 03:39 PM

*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 :) )

Michaelangelo|DAH 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

OA 11-05-2003 05:44 PM

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!!!

VaughnMichael 11-05-2003 08:59 PM

well
 
went out to 2 targets today
no new tmnt figures.....but I did pick up the new muppet figures gotta fix my muppet cravings...
I'm gonna check walmart tommrow
Vaughn Michael

Jo Dawn 11-05-2003 09:20 PM

Yeah, I checked my Target today, and to no avail. I'm going out again soon. I better find those somewhere... soon. :wink:

Michaelangelo|DAH 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

Mr. Snackpants 11-06-2003 10:17 AM

the armorized shredder is the one with the removable helmet, right?

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

tmntpower2003 11-06-2003 04:04 PM

I am most def picking these up they are a neces especially the shredder and elite. anytime we get another shredder is good.

OA 11-06-2003 05:33 PM

Darn..no luck here in Miami...hopefully on payday tomorrow there will be!

Snailman 11-06-2003 07:10 PM

:o :o AWESOME!

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

Jo Dawn 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:

cqb101 11-08-2003 08:32 PM

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.......

trez 11-08-2003 08:34 PM

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.

OA 11-08-2003 10:45 PM

Looks like Target is the place to get em for now...i've still had no luck though... :-?

Kid Icarus 11-09-2003 01:08 AM

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.

VaughnMichael 11-09-2003 05:41 AM

welp
 
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....
going to go check another walmart and super target tommorow
wish me luck

My target hasn't put anything new on the shelves since that 4.89 sale.
