You might have to look for a retailer based in Australia or find a private third party that would be willing to purchase and ship the items to you.
Thanks for the help.I checked that website and like toysrus in USA they dont ship out of USA.

I have since found the name of the company that disribute in Australia.I have emailed them along with toys r us in Australia and another toy store.

I dont mind waiting for them to come here but if by chance they dont.....i only fear that they will only go up in price on ebay and im buying them as toys for my sons to play with.

Atm i can get dogpound fishface and metalhead on ebay for anywhere between $65 and $100 for the 3 delivered.Thats a little more then the $15 each shelf price they have here.

Much Appriecated
As an Australian I'd recommend amazon.co.uk.

I used them and I thought the price and shipping to Australia was pretty good. Remember they don't charge VAT to Australians so that is removed from the final price at check-out, so a figure should come out at around 8 pound before shipping. And of course the more you order the less shipping is per unit.

Yeah someone might be able to pick them up for you and ship them but amazon shipping costs are hard to beat.

If you want to buy from the US (which seems to have international restrictions on shipping all Playmates stuff) you can try a forwarding service like http://www.shipito.com/

Alternately a couple of weeks ago I saw a Toys R Us (Australia) catalog in the mail and you could buy four playmates figures for $50. I have no idea what they sell for individually. But I'd already got the four turtles on ebay by then.

Let me know how you go.

Inpatience seems to be my problem..I have already picked up 8 of the 9 figures..missing the Kraang but he seems easy to pick up online here.

It seems Dogpound Fishface and Metalhead been out since December and we havent seen them..so When will we???

My eagerness for Dogpound is the fact that ive had to watch "Mousers Attack about 20 times with my son..he loves that episode.

I just got a reply from the Australian suppliers.

We should see Dogpound fishface and metalhead Late May early June...So I guess ill wait till then.

He was unsure on the next series as this one has only just dropped here...But what are we about 6 months behind by the looks.

Hopefully we will see leatherhead snakeweed baxter etc in time for christmas

Was there a set of Nick TMNTs toys coming out that are factory painted like the Exclusive Night Shadow Leonardo? I can't remember if I saw them or am making things up.

Is Myteefinestuff.com safe? Has anyone here bought from them? Do they sell crap or are the figures and vehicles in good condition? Thanks

Totally safe. What you see is what you get with 'em, no BS. Virtually every toy collector on these boards has used it at least once.

If you already have a Netflix account, why not?

If not, theres a free 1 month trial before you have to pay. Exploit it to the max.

And for future reference, this is "Ask a question, get an answer." for TMNT toys and collectibles as the appropriate sections indicates.

I noticed that some of my Nick Turtles figures have a small sticker on the upper left of the blister. Are these only on the first run of figures?

Does anyone know how rare or how much the figure Mona Lisa is worth? I want to think that it is a bit rare. Just curious, thanks!

I think shes pretty easy to find. I think a Mona Lisa in nice shape could get upwards of $40-50
