Neca/Target Haulathon April 11th
 
Since there is a bunch of TMNT stuff figured one thread would be easier

So like, what exactly is haulathon?

The only thing I might be interested here is battle damaged Shredder.

Haul-A-Thon is a sales pitch, dude. It's the same thing as when we were kids and Carson Pirie Scott sent out a catalog to our moms for the Summer sale. The only difference is that a marketing MBA who works for Target said "let's brand it as a convention event as cover for the sale and they'll eat it up and not know the difference". That's the reality. It's a retail sales event whereby the retailer hopes that most consumers will think it actually has something to do with "social fandom" to be involved with like a convention.

Oh for f's sake. My point exactly - talk about dressing up a pig.

On that note, I'm happy to say that the only thing here I'd be interested in is maybe the Shredder, but only if he's a little taller and better scale than the original release. If not, I'm not double dipping anymore.

Me who will probably look to see if the Mirage Leo showed up and probably won't find him as usual.

Wouldn't mind that 4 pack though, even if the cost of those packs are generally more than I can justify spending.

Autbot_Benz 03-24-2025 05:52 PM

All I want is Pee Wee Herman and thankfully he isn't exclusive to Target so if I miss him at Haul-A-Thon I can get him later

For me:
Both Toon 2 packs
Panda Khan
Ultimate Toon Shredder
Mirage April
Pee Wee
Count

Maybe:
Foot Assassin (classic color)

BD Red Shredder probably not, I've got both the blue one and the foot 4 pack red Shredder.

I'll be looking to sell B&W shredder and foot and get out of the B&W game. Rest of the Mirage stuff is cool and all but I am staying away from Mirage variants given how Turtled-out we all are after a decade of onslaught. At the end of the day I'm more of a movie and TV guy than comics.

Panda Khan admittedly looks terrific.....

The 4 Pack of the Mirage turtles as gangsters goes up Friday for pre-order for Haul-a-Thon. Just saw the post on Instagram

I found Ultimate Shredder, Count, and BD Mirage Shredder at a Target (have only checked a couple) in the shipper display.

I forget what else was on it, but no other toon figures were on it. :x

Hoping that one of these Friday Target events includes the rest of the toons...kinda dumb to start off Haul-a-thon, a decidedly Target event, with Mirage items that are not themselves Target exclusives.

Gangster Turtles and Creepy Eddie and Shibano Sama are up on Target’s site

I bit the bullet on those sets because... man, they just look so cool.

RaphaelinSTL 04-11-2025 11:00 PM

No luck at my Target this week, but the display was up. Gonna try some other ones tomorrow or on Sunday.
