Movie 2-Packs?

I've never seen these before, so I'm wondering if anyone else has:

This may be quite recent, seeing as how they come with Alien Hunter Turtles. However, from a carded figure collector's standpoint, these aren't that great... I have two of the 2003 series Two-packs like this, and I wanted to remove the 2-pack packaging, so I'd have them individually hanging on my wall, and I almost ripped the cardboard trying to remove some tape... I decided to leave it on. To make things worse, I had seen two basic Raphael figures - one in the standard package, one in the "Allies and Enemies" style packing, in this style... who exactly is the target audience with those ones.

But I digress... this may be good news to some of you who don't care about having the figures combined on the card, or are planning on opening them in the first place.

Yeah, I've yet to see these in any store I'm sure they are coming from some sort of discount place like a biglots that we have here in the US.
We may end up seeing these at places like Toys R Us in time also.
But yeah I've never been tempted to buy any of these because by the time they bring these out I already have the figures they are releasin in 2 packs.

The original two card 2-packs, I thought, were Toys R' Us exclusives. These kinds, I mean. The ones that were two figures on one card (for example, Turtle Titan and Fire Foot Mystic on one card), were more widespread. I never saw them elsewhere, anyway. The only TMNT I've seen at BigLots in the last five years were Fast Forward... anyway, this guy's selling them out of Australia, so perhaps they're exclusive to that country/continent, or at least released there first?

I wonder. How much would these retail for, and is there a set with Jungle Leo... SO far I only have 3 of the basic turtles (I got the basic Raph under protest... I couldn't find Monster Hunter Raph, nor the Splinter that was JUST THERE THE DAY BEFORE at the Family Dollar closest to me).

The 8 dollar price tag has given me nothing but problems.
