Counting the Classic Turtles are 6" and not 6" scale making them tower over every other turtle ever mad eincluding NECA's, I wonder if future Classics line figures will also be 6" or 6" scale, it'll be weird seeing other characters be the same size as the turtles and I don't see them making the other characters bigger than the turtles...

The classics are for sale on Amazon and fulfilled by Amazon! I got free 2 day shipping (Amazon prime) but they'd be eligible for free super saver shipping also. I got all four for 80.00 shipped and I will have them on Thursday.

Here is a link to Leonardo and you can find the others on there also

I'm hoping that Playmates just goofed here and that the next figures will be 6 inch scale. I was mostly going to get the classics to put next to my Neca figures but since they're way out of scale with them I don't think I'm going to bother.

That is, I'm not lying, the coolest custom I've ever seen. Man, I'd love to have my figures play some games.

Isn't $20 quite a bit over that these will be at retail?? I was under the impression these would be about $15 in stores. Anyone know how Amazon ships action figures?? Packed well?

Amazon ships fast, but typically they don't do much protecting other than some inflated packing bags. Sometimes not even that.

Yeah, Amazon is charging $5 extra for these. They'll be $15ish at retail, supposedly. Although nobody has actually found them at retail yet, so they may actually end up closer to $20.

They're around $15-17. After taxes (if you buy them in store or at an online retailer), then shipping (if you don't get free shipping), you're going to be around $20-25 per figure anyway. I think Amazon's flat $20 price with free shipping and no tax is a great deal.

About the shipping, I don't know. Sometimes it seems like they just throw something into a box, and if it will hold it, a big plastic bubble or two.

If I can afford it in the next few days, I'm thinking of getting one or two of them. Donatello especially if I get screwed over by the Post Office.

This is why I should have waited. I would have gotten a couple of the classics from Amazon. Oh well. I love what I got so I can't complain.

maybe I should put a paypal donation link in my blog so people can donate so I can buy figures to review lol
