:D I've have some great news u probberly think i am lying but i swear to
god im not. R some of u famillar with the shop Forbbiden planet :)

Ok the news is that i went in into town today being a tuesday and im on half term. So my mum works in town so usally i go to forbbiden planet to get my turtle comics Vol 4 (they reserve them for me).

So as i was saying i went in and on the left they have all the LOTR figures and i was scanning the shelf 4 a legolas figure but they didn't have any.

Then Suddenly something caught my eye is was (drum roll please) the new TMNT figures:Di was so happy i couldn't belive they had Leo,Mike,Shredder,Splinter and a foot soldier.(no Raph or Don:cry:) So naturally i brought Leo and Mike because they each cost £10.95 and i only had £22.00. I asked if they have been offically released in the Uk
The guy said they have been out 4 a couple weeks. strange no where else sells them!

So about 3 hours l8ter i go bac and ask if they no when they will get Raph and Don but they said there sold out complety :(. So he says better wait until the offical release. WAT this is the same guy that i asked 3 hours ago who said they r out.

C u guys around

£10.95? That seems a bit much, or is that how much figures go for nowadays? Maybe they were imported or something. I haven't been around the figure scene since I was like 9 or 10, so I aren't sure of the prices any more. :p

They're imports, hence the extreme cost of each figure. I was at the UK toyfair, the official release is in going to be in September to tie in with the launch of the show (which will be on terrestrial TV, not digital thankfully) and the price is as follows:

Figures - £6.99 each
Vehicles (Shell Cycle and Sewer Slider) - £9.99 each
Battle Shell - £24.99
Sewer Lair - £49.99
12" Figures - £14.99 each
Role Play (Katana and Bo) - £11.99 each
Shell Cell - £14.99

The prices are from the press release (which is available online) which strangely states that the products will be available from the summer, not September like I was told at Toy Fair. I think it is likely that we may get the 4 TMNT in August (so it could class as the end of summer) like America got them in December with the rest coming out the following month.

Great find though, I'll wait unti Memorabillia in April and see if I can get a better price, if not I'll head to FP and get a Leo, if there's any left.

Hey Fraggle, they have them there in about 2 weeks thats Don and Raph, I no a guy hu works there. Theylle also hav the Roleplay stuff.

wheres your Forbidden Planet and how do you know that they will be in my
one in 2 weeks

My one is in London and I no this coz my cuzin makes deliveries there.

Don't tell me they're actually making TOYS on that!

It's times like that I want to just shoot everybody...

Yeah they are making a Shell Cell, I saw the prototype at the UK toyfair. It does look a lot better than the old TurtleCom, personally I don't think I'll be getting one but it'll be great for kids to go with the roleplay weapons.

Did they used to sell TurtleComs, when the old TMNT show was running?

Yeah they did, I got one when I was on holiday in Florida back in 91, it was the first and only time I've ever seen one.
