Giant & Classic Turtles Buying Advice

Hi, sorry if I'm behind the loop. . . but I want to buy both the 11 inch giant turtles and the classic figure of new tmnt....i believe the classic figures are only sold at amazon and target? my target doesn't have them, and they are sold out at target.com?

and amazon is WAY more expensive...should I wait for target to get more on hand, or is there a way i can make amazon price match>?


and the 11 inch figures are only sold at toys r us, and i dont have a toys r u us within 3 hrs of me. and they are sold out online at toysrus.com,
do you think they will get more online to sell or i should buy them from a marked up seller on ebay? (they sell for $40-something after shipping on ebay)

You can find the Classics almost anywhere. Hastings has them, I know. The Storage Shell figures are TrU exclusives.

And if you're wanting some, I'm sure I can ship them to you for less than $40 each. Let me know.

The Giant Turtles ARE the Storage Shell (or Battle Shell) Turtles. Those are TrU exclusive. Classics, I'm not sure where else they're sold, aside from some comic shops, Hastings, and I think TrU. You can also find them on Amazon, although they're hiked up there.

Again, PM me if you want me to try getting them for you.

Or yeah, you could just order from BBTS.

I bought the 11" storage shell turtles and I regret it. They cost 25 per turtle and I got lucky from TRU and paid 80 total shipped to my house. I don't think they are as good as the regular 5" figs. Unless you want to drop 100 on the storage shell turtles for less articulation, the I would skip them. Personal opinion as an owner of all the Nick line of Turtle figures.

The classics on the other hand are amazing. I love those things. Amazon has them for around 30 each or you can wait for them to come back in stock at TRU for 18 each.
