I believe so, I picked Splinter up two days ago and he had the newest booklet inside the packaging with Anchovy Alley and all the mutagen products featured

Awesome. Hopefully that means I'll be able to track one down locally, and won't have to resort to buying one online. He's the only wave one figure I still need...well, I may still get a Kraang figure, but I don't "need" one. That and I'm still hoping they'll release a better Kraang figure at some point in the future. Maybe one with that weird blue armor some of them have on. I would wait for the second Splinter we know is on the way, but the more I think about it, the more I doubt it's an improved version. It and the second Shredder probably have a theme to them.

Well, you would probably have better luck with an original turtle com. I have a my touch 4g. And it just appears to be to short to actually work....I still might get one, and see I can't just take it apart and see what happens. The screen section is definitely to small, but if the whole thing is hallow, then I might be able to cut it bigger.

I just pulled it up on my phone and used that.

Found and bought an Anchovy Alley playset along with the last two Oooze throwing turtles I needed (Donnie and Raph). I like the playset. If this is maybe something they continue to do down the line I'd be interested as it's a descent playset and the fact that it can be stored in a way as to not take up much room.

So jealous! :p haha Thanks for sharing that! It gets me excited to go out to some stores, even though mine will still be empty. Hopefully I'll make it to TRU next week. Surely they have restocked by now.

Yeah,I spotted the Patrol Buggies at my TRU this morning.They put out several figures as well.

It sounds like you're pretty determined to try. If you do, share your results.

Thanks for the reply.

*TheCanadiandrome* · 01-18-2013, 01:55 PM

Man now that I've seen confirmation of the new stuff being in Canada I'm hoping to start spotting stuff soon

cryan · 01-18-2013, 02:01 PM

The cases I have seen with the Ooze fighting Turtles don't have April and Splinter for what I remember.

Redemption · 01-18-2013, 02:14 PM

What new splinter is coming out?

*miru* · 01-18-2013, 02:50 PM

Has anyone seen Snakeweed yet? I love Snakeweed. he just embodies the spirit of the older TMNT villains, and is somewhat of a return of the gross-out figures of the 80s and early 90s.

*Donatello19* · 01-18-2013, 03:05 PM

Went to TRU today in hopes to find a pop up pizza play set. I didn't see any, but then, on the shelf, I saw one. There was ONE left. I felt so lucky! Of course I bought it XD. (They also had the patrol buggies and ooze, but nothing else...)

So anyway, my TRU wanted $31.99 for it. Kinda expensive, but I still bought it.

I get home and start to construct the play set and apply the stickers. After playing around with it for a while, I realized what a waste the thing was. It is very small for the figures, and very flimsy too. I couldn't even get the action features to work at all. The whole thing felt like a pile of junk. I'm going back to TRU to return it later, and I'm going to get the patrol buggies instead (let's just hope they still have them!)

So, I do NOT recommend this set at all, I honestly can't even see little kids having fun with the thing. If I can't get the action features to work, how could a little kid do it? Sigh...

KenStole · 01-18-2013, 07:09 PM

Finally purchased the Buggies from Target online. None of the TRU's, Targets, Walmart have nothing on the shelves around my area or Jersey. I hate NY lol..Im moving to the suburbs where the TMNT figures/vehicles are easy to find

Too bad, maybe yours was defective

Love him or hate him, a popular toy reviewer has a video review of the 4 ooze turtles

I really do hope that they aren't all like that as I was really looking forward to getting my hands on the set!

*Oculus Orbus* · 01-19-2013, 03:40 PM

So it seems like the Ooze Turtles don't really work, wich makes the whole thing even more pointless.

Playmates and their wacky turtle variants with gimmicks. Did any of the vintage ooze related items work all that well? I recall that vintage catapult thing that was supposed to fling ooze didn't work out very well either.

wow... and here they go with the lame and stupid variants.... I really hope they don't dress like that in any of the actual episodes. I'm surprised none of the vehicles have appeared yet, especially since the 'Shell Raiser' is in the intro.
