Buy one get one free Nick TMNT figure - Page 2

And I just noticed that Leo's swords are drooping in the large ones. They are a heavier, but more flexible plastic. I rotated them so they are posed backwards to even them back out. Ugh...design flaw.

Was anyone able to capitalize on this sale? I checked TRU.com at 9am on Saturday morning and saw the B1B1F listed under the basics so I went into the retail store. There were no sale signs (except for the 11" figures which have been on sale for 3 weeks now) so I brought 2 up to the counter to verify. They were not aware of any deal and they did not ring up as one free. But they were going to match the online deal except when they checked their computer, the B1G1F verbiage had changed! Was I imagining it? Or was this an online only sale for like only 2 hours.

First of all it was buy 2 and get 1 free....it covered almost the whole store for Geoffery's birthday or some crap like that. My neighbor got the full set of 9 Nick figs for 50 bucks. But this was 2 weeks ago....methinks you were late.

No, the B2G1 was an actual ad sale from the week of the 16th. I was well aware of that sale. This thread is discussing a buy one get one free rumor that was going around as a special promotion for the 29th. Kind of like how Xcomics ran a 1/2 off digital TMNT comics promo to celebrate the new show. Like I said in my previous post, I'm almost positive I saw the B1G1promo online before leaving for the store Saturday morning. By the time I got there, the verbiage changed to their usual "Ships free" promo under the basic figures. Unless I'm going crazy (which is possible!

)

If thats the case then I had not heard about this sale, and I think everyone was talking about the B2G1 sale not BOGO....that may be the disconnect here

You know Coro I'm not being sarcastic but after viewing that picture that you have of the shell storage/battle storage and basic 6 inch figures together, I really dig the pose you did for the 6 inch figures. I wish I can pose my figures like that. Yes, yes, yes I know it's easy but I am always afraid they are going to look goofy with me trying to pose them.

I agree to that Leo's swords don't look so good. I wonder if they are going to release The Giant Turtles like they did previously or these figures are combined with the storage shells ?

I think these 11 inch battle shell turtles are your giants.

I think this is the first time I've seen these turtle figures.

Just to be clear, these aren't the 11" figures that were on sale are they?

There are only 1 set of 11" figures...the battle shell (storage shell) ones. I posted them on the page before this.
