I'd like to buy some of these sets, but I really have nowhere to put them

Besides, I really just want the mini figures

Yeah kinda figured

I bought all the minifigures solo without the sets. Much easier to stand them up on a shelf or something to me without all kinds of room. I finally got Dogpound and Fishface to collect every MF in this pic from page 1:

Are there any others that aren't listed because they're new or something?

Not besides repeats of the foot, unles you want the kraang walker thing, but its not really a mini fig

*Donatello19* · 03-27-2013, 08:42 PM

^Well there will obviously be new figures when new sets come out (who knows when that will be though) but as of right now it looks like you have them all (except the toy fair exclusive ones, but I take it you don't really care about those). Did you buy each figure off of eBay? If so, may I ask how much you spent to get them all?

dudeabides · 03-27-2013, 08:57 PM

Yes ebay 100 percent, I decided not to bid not more than 10 bucks per figure and just find a new one every time I got outbid. It worked out eventually, and the turtles and April were the only ones that pushed the limit... I had to bid on 4 or 5 different Donatello's. I didn't buy more than 1 turtle each just to have them with different faces. And one auction included Krang, Baxter and his mouser and Dark ninja all together that was a steal. So sorry if it's not exact but somewhere around 100 bucks. And not all at one time for sure. I was looking at just Raphael and Leo for a long time.

I wanna get the mini figures, but I don't think I could bring myself to spend 100 dollars to get the whole set. I hope LEGO releases a set of just the mini figures (or LEGO TMNT blind bags!) at a reasonable price, because I'd definitely get them!

*Zulithe* · 03-28-2013, 01:33 AM

lego.com has finally 'fixed' donnie's lab so you can get the alternate build instructions there from now on. Enjoy guys! I'm going to compare the PDFs on there from the ones I downloaded months ago and see if they changed them at all. That might explain why Donnie's Lab was offline all that time.

*Zulithe* · 03-28-2013, 01:13 PM

April is a special month for TMNT at LEGO stores... and it makes sense... get it... April? :p

Spend $75 and get a free master splinter keychain

They would NEVER sell the mini-figures individually. Blind bags I can kinda see though.

I just got into the 2012 nick show, mainly thanks to my seven year old nephew. I was looking to get (can't get both sadly, to poor) either the Shellraiser set or the lair attack. I want the one that looks most like the one in the show though or close enough to it. I just haven't seen a lot of the episodes to really compare yet.

So could anyone tell me which is the most... true? I should also thank my nephew for getting me back into logos. I was watching him the other day and he wanted to do legos and it renkindled my love.

Luigiperps · 03-29-2013, 11:03 AM

Shellraisers more accurate, but I like the lair a little better.

ToSte · 03-29-2013, 01:09 PM

Well they DO sell the minifigs individually, as keychains.
I find the blind bag idea highly improbable, they would have done so with one of the other licenses (ie Star Wars).

Koschei · 03-29-2013, 04:43 PM

Somebody just got an early birthday present, hehe.
Collection complete. (I will probably pass on the key chains, maybe?)

*TheCanadiandrome* · 03-29-2013, 09:37 PM

I'd love the keychains

Luigiperps · 03-31-2013, 01:12 PM

Getting a Mikey key chain tomorrow!

Luigiperps · 04-02-2013, 06:24 PM

Got my Mikey key chain!

Him with Leatherhead!

super curry max · 04-02-2013, 06:58 PM

Bricklink is SO MUCH CHEAPER than ebay when buying individual figures.

also there are the 2 con exclusive lego figs of dark leo and kraang in a business suit.

*CyberCubed* · 04-02-2013, 08:57 PM

Man I wish they'd sell all the figures seperately from the sets.

i'd love to own all the TMNT figures but have no time or room for the playsets.
