new wave of Nick turtles are starting to show up in stores. This along with the new movie figures. Great time to be a fan/collector, but terrible time for a wallet.

Yes, but the white parts on the "shoes" are not painted...

Went to my local Target yesterday. They had a few of the basic movie figures in stock along with the Nick turtles. Weird, aren't they suppose to hit shelves on July 6 or something?

Thanks for sharing! Can't wait to get these. Loved the episode and I love these figures. A "Turkey Variant" Raph would be kinda cool.

I have the two previous SDCC figures. My Shredder is signed by Kevin Michel Richardson. I am really hoping they surprise all of us by introducing a Karai figure this way. It would be great to see Playmates listen to the fans for once.

After having the new toys a few days I can for sure say that Raph is the best of the four. I love the sculpt and thw detail on him. Second best to me is actually Mikey. I dont know why, but theres something about him I really like and I cant put my finger on it.

I am surprisingly loving Leo the most out of the movie figs. That coming from a guy who is obviously biased towards Donny. Everyone is going to have their favorite fig from the set and no one pick is right or wrong in this instance.

For whatever it's worth, Raph is my least fav of the four and he's def got my vote for best in this line-up.

Same here. Leo>Mike>Don>Raph, but the Raph movie fig is definitely the one I like the most.

Looking at the LARP figures, that might be the first set of variant turtles I pick up from the Nick line.

I'd be happy if it's anyone that's not been released at retail yet

To be 100% honest I am not sure who else from the show so far I would want more than Karai. She has played the biggest role in the show compared to any other secondary character that hasn't been represented in toy form already. I feel that makes her the biggest gap in the toy line. Sure other figures could be made but the impact of Karai would have to be the greatest so far. Just my humble 2 cents.

Thank you! Not much of a toy collector, but THOSE figures are ones I've been waiting to make an appearance. Did they fix the color of Leo's shoulder armor and add the band of blue across the helm?? Yay!

I can't speak for others, but I generally avoid all variants that aren't canon to the show...that includes the Stealth Tech and the Ooze Flingers.

On the opposite end of the spectrum, I can't wait until the LARP Turtles and Mikey the Turflytle comes out (buzz buzz). But on the subject, I wish Playmates would make accessory/costume packs that we could snap onto our Battle Shells...but I guess there's no money in that.
