So I just went to Toys R Us' website, and they apparently have a Friends and Family event going on this weekend. There's a 20% off coupon you can print off and take to the store (or use online). I put the new movie Sewer Lair and the Garbage Truck in my cart, applied the 20% off coupon and it knocked the price down to like $111. I also have a $5 Rewards R Us certificate, so after applying that as well, I will essentially get both items for $106! Or, I prefer to think of it as getting the garbage truck for just $6...lol.

Just wanted to pass this along so anyone going out for toys this weekend could use the 20% off coupon.

Well, I wouldn't waste my money on the layer, it's a exact same one that's been released twice before, more or less. And unless you were desperate to own it yet again, in all likelihood will be on clearance and a couple of months. Appreciate the info though.

True enough, but I never got the original 2 versions because I wasn't super-impressed with them for the money. I'm not sure why, but for some reason, the "tunnel slide" on this one has really made me like this version and I think my kids and I will really enjoy playing with it. Plus the extra 20% off during this weekend makes it easier to pick up.

It really bugs me they take the effort to make bebop have purple hair in all the images when they damn well know they used pink.

They should have just used Dons purple paint, boom, done.

Chain-wrapped box design, Mikey, maybe? Anyone recognize the signature?

Yeah I think it's Bebop too because it's the only character that wears chains.

Lol yep add me to the list.

As for the lair I went ahead and ordered one cause no one else would Lolol 20 percent off at tru yo. I don't have any of the previous versions and this one does seem like the very best out of the three. Love the colors and the slide. It all seems much closer in spirit to the original sewer home.

There's no way they'd just do Bebop & not include Rocksteady. So if it's to be one single figure, it ain't porkchop.

With your guesses what do you all mean exactly, just a paint variant of one of the regular 5 inch figures? Surely it's something fairly more significant than a slight variation of a preexisting 9 dollar figure? I would love to see a Brian tee head shredder, might help the fig a bit

Surely.






If these images don't spell it out for you, that's literally the exact thing they've done for four years now.

The last three were more all less just that. Slight variations on existing figures.
There was the Leo in shadow (a reprint in a fixed pose), a Shredder with 'chrome' armor (regular figure with shiny arm our) and blac n white comic book Raph (repainted fugure).
Last year the EX was a reworked regular 11" figure - so it's common practice to issue an existing, or upcoming figure with a slight tweak.

Frankly, I hope that's all they ever do for exclusives. It'd suck if some cool character was only available as an Exclusive.

They have set s pattern. Repainted-Chome added- Repainted- Chrome added- 2016 (should be a repainted variant).
I'm expecting it to be a Bebop, and signed by the actor perhaps!

Except. It looks like a P or a D, most likely the former. But that doesn't match any of the actors involved.
