Here are the pics of the TMNT listings. Like I said before, take these with a grain of salt as they could be subject to change, but this is what to expect as of now.

Honestly no. I imagine we'll get a better idea come Toy Fair, but our computers only tell us basic info(ie-A case of TMNT figures are coming in, but not what assortment). Sorry.

Thanks for the pics dude. Hopefully all of these make it to retail. Should be interesting to see how some of these turn out. Most especially Leatherhead and Spider Bytes. The fact that Walmart will be stocking the Battle Shell Turtles has me hopeful that they'll be stocking the Classic Collection figures too.

There are two on there that you hadn't mentioned before that caught my eye. The "Turtle Motorcycle", which could just be the wave one cycle, but I wouldn't be too surprised if they were putting out another one, and the "Kraang Hover Drone", which should be interesting to see.

I still have no idea what to expect from the Splinter 2 and Shredder 2 listings. If I find a wave one Splinter I'll still probably get him, as I don't want to miss out on having a Splinter. At the same time, I kinda don't want to buy him just to replace him later on with a potentially improved version. That said, I've already got a Shredder...so maybe I could have the wave one versions displayed with their crew, and the improved one's on their own shelf battling it out...

6 dollars for ooze? That's ridiculous if you ask me.

I find it more interesting that Toys R Us has to pay 5.75 for the toys and sells them for 8.88, which means they barely get $2 profit from each toy.

I'm pretty sure that's wal-mart's computer pictured. And toys r us currently sells them at $10.99.

$6.99 for a tube of goo is bullsh*t, even if you have money to blow.

But you're paying for the mini-turtle figure, not the goo.

Given I had a TRU coupon for $3 off to blow, I bought one canister today for the heck of it.
It had Raph in it, which was cool. Some of the turtles are easier to see inside the ooze as to who you get, but I just grabbed one as again mentioned before, for the heck of it.
Definitely gave me some nostalgia having ooze again. Sure the original version was neon green, but this stuff is actual pretty show accurate in color.

I wonder if I could somehow put some kind of light-up effect in the canister to make it really look cool...

Seems you can't go a week around this forum without someone begging for ooze... so they are going to get it. Personally I won't be buying it. I don't know what I'd do with the ooze and the figures look like something out of a coin operated toy vending machine.

I want to see pics of the other new 2013 basic figures!
