Got my Sewer Squad turtles yesterday as well. Some minor paint issues, but still a fantastic deal.

See there was some talk about limited range of motion with ball jointed heads and I have a solution. Just take a small strip of paper about as wide as the ball joint and fold it over a couple times and put it in the head to get a much better range of motion. I don't have the battle shells but if they're ball joints it should help. I've used this successfully on the Rise Raph, Mikey, and Origami Ninja and the last series of monster turtles.

I wanted to see if the belts could be swapped. The store figures came off pretty easy. A little gentle prying and the glue gave up. Mikey has a deep plug. Weird thing is the belts snap together like previous lines. I haven't tried the sewer squad ones.

Hmm still no box for me, but I ordered very recently. Also my Walmart was due to get a new shipment of turtles today so I checked before work. They sure did… All of wave one

I can't believe I sat on the deal for so long. I did purchase the SDCC Leonardo off eBay, so I felt like I didn't need the Sewer Squad set....already having my fave turtle with the extra details. I caved and bought the Sewer Squad set yesterday. If anything, I want to keep everything in the cool box it comes in. Hopefully mine won't show up all damaged.

I like how they just pressed the certificate in the bottom of the box all bent and torn on the sides. My kiddo wanted it but not now. Would have been better if they just folded it in half before putting it in the box.

What is going on with Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Foot Lieutenant Action Figure and Albearto? Can someone shed light? Is it another Muckman small release or just an early wave 2 and people are over excited?

Dont worry Alberto and the whole second wave are out and plentiful. There were more of them than the storage shell turtles when I spotted them here in north Carolina and they were out 2 weeks ago when I initially found them on my work trip to vegas. They had multiples of Alberto and the foot general almost like 5 or 6 each between the display and the shelf. Almost like there shipped in there own case. If your local stores like Walmart and target have a lot of old stock they wont know to put the new stuff out.

I would not say they’re out and plentiful by any means. Walmart I work at only had a few of the turtle figures, I checked when they were getting them in and we got an a whole new case but it was all wave one turtles.

Swaynomics930 · 02-07-2019, 10:55 AM

I checked near me target and walmart both nothing. Their websites out, amazon also has nothing.

I bought my Foot Lt. on Amazon With the BS Turtles

renegadez21 · 02-07-2019, 12:01 PM

they have many albeartos by me...if anyone needs one just let me know

andr0s81 · 02-07-2019, 06:48 PM

If they have the battle she turtles I may take you up on that if you don’t mind.

renegadez21 · 02-07-2019, 07:10 PM

Interesting concept, but at the price, easy pass.

~~Kenwatanabesclone~~ · 02-07-2019, 07:57 PM

Haven’t seen a single battle shell, foot lt, or Alberto at any store near me.

~~Leo656~~ · 02-07-2019, 08:25 PM

Both Wal-Mart and Target over here always have at least one Battle Shell. I guess NJ gets all the cool stuff, with the caveat being, "You have to live in NJ."
