In all reality

I want Krang more than anything, but oh no matter what shredder it is pre 2012 it'll be absolutely badass. The movies shredder is insane, good figure for sure, as well as 2k3 and OT I'm very excited, as for the other I'm not sure.

I still like em. Donnie's face could be better but I'll still buy them. Now, I wonder if I should buy them online or in-store, online would have shipping costs but my TRU doesn't carry Classic Collection figures and the Nick store at Nickelodeon Universe sells them for $25 a piece.
One thing I thought with these guys was okstpsy's Movie Star customs which are incredible. Are you going to do these too?

Thank goodness! I hope Playmates actually goes through with these two figures and that one of them is Shredder!

They look okay to me. The target audience is still kids. Not us older folks.

Not super impressed with these pictures, might look better in person. Might buy them either way to support the line and get us some more figures.

Pretty sure most kids are unaware of this movie that came out in the 90's based on general knowledge unless their parents are turtles fans or movie buffs. And it's a collectors line.

Yeah, I don't like the way they look at all. Donnie looks like he's 57 years old and the paint on all of them is nothing like the movies. And these are the ones they're showing off. I imagine the ones we get won't be as clean looking.

Still, I'm going to happily buy every single one to support the line.

I would love to support this classics line, but everytime I have gone to TRU to get the classics they are out everytime. I still haven't seen Bebop or Rocksteady in a store.

Yeah, I've never seen them at retail. I saw them at a comic book store in San Diego at the beginning of January. He had like 4 of each but he wanted a little over $30 a piece for them. I hate toy scalpers so I couldn't force myself to buy them. Never seen them at Toys R Us either though. I hope they release them again when they release the movie figures.

If you can't find them at Toys R Us then definitely grabbed them off of Amazon. That's how I got my set and thats where i'm getting the third set from. Fall cannot come quicker.

Me too! That's how I got my Bebop. I was lucky enough to grab a rocksteady on Black Friday. There was 2 left on the self. Everything else absolutely gone.

Wow, those are pretty disappointing. The body sculpts are pretty solid, but those heads...YUCK. Donatello looks the worst and Michelangelo is probably the least offensive.

In the states you won't have to worth about shipping. I normally get shipping free 3 day or use that super savings thing and when you weigh it out you pay a little less for the amazon one than the toys r us one with the shipping added in.

Good thing I made a prime account.

I usually get my stuff on amazon or in the store. I never order off TRU.com for the fact that they cancel my stuff most of the time.

I don't really like to go look for this stuff in stores because most of the time they don't have them on pegs or they're always sold out. Where I work at too we don't have many TMNT stuff aside from those deluxe figures and lego sets. Walmart and Target are usually good when it comes to the basic Nick figures, keyword "Sometimes" because they were empty when I went yesterday.

didn't realize the release for the 1990 Movie Turtles changed from Spring to Fall, when did this happen? Do we have a source of confirmation?

I got my Classic Bebop & Rocksteady on TRU.com, actually never had an order cancelled from there. But you are not the first person I've heard claim this.

I would say: try it if the price is good. if they cancel it, sucks, but you can try elsewhere.

P.S. - I saw some Classic Turtles at my local TRU on Monday, hadn't seen them there in a while. So they do seem to be out there still. I still have never seen B&R in store but they probably just sell them fast if they get them.
