Not sure how long this special will run but it's definitely worth jumping on it if you plan to spend the $ on at least the 11" figures. You can also pre-order the sewer playset and power sound figures but no 20% discount on them.

Yes, you can get the 20% Discount on everything! This is what I did, I ordered all the basic figures, vehicles, Battle Shell Figures and the Sewer Lair, although it looks like you can't the 20% off on the Lair anymore... I was able to get 20% off everything plus free shipping, even with TRU's markup on some of the vehicles, I still got everything cheaper than I would have going to a brick and mortar store... Take advantage of it while it lasts! And welcome to the Drome!

Will they even make it to shelves, that is... they're selling out like crazy! Was there any official word that they would be sold in store and not just online?

Actually a buddy of mine out in arizona sent me a pic yesterday of the classics on toys r us shelves....and in our systems it shows all the information for them. They are definitely hitting storea shelves.

Good to hear!

I'd much rather get them from the US as they're priced at $21.99 on the Canadian TRU website.
And again, more members need to post pics of store shelves... I really like seeing them, as I can't wait 'til TMNT are back where they belong.

Scumbug_Rob · 07-22-2012, 03:17 PM

I went to 2 Toys R Us today and both were completely stripped of the figures. I was able to find a Mikey for my daughter...i guess im ganna have to wait to get all 4 for myself.

Newton Gimmick · 07-22-2012, 03:30 PM

My TRU finally got them, I guess... LOL. They had the display but were wiped out. Only a couple Shellraisers and bikes left. That's good news!

Hopefully. My TRU has stocked the new TMNT twice now and both times been wiped out of almost every one of the single figures.

I'm hoping this isn't just collectors whom didn't know about the way to get the figures early and stuff (Target store DCPIs), but people buying them for kids.

I know it was said that the Thundercats sold quickly initially when they showed up back on shelves here this last year, but quickly died off after all the nostalgic collectors got their fills.

Hopefully that isn't the case with TMNT.

Also, hopefully Playmates will give more characters the articulation level of the fab four here in future waves maybe.

Digital Ghost · 07-22-2012, 03:38 PM

Yeah, to hear that they're selling out doesn't bother me as much, now that I've already purchased them that is... I do want them to sell like hotcakes 'cause that'll just mean more and more.

Veedubguy83 · 07-22-2012, 06:59 PM

I haven't seen them in any stores locally yet... I know Target is going to have them because they say they have them in stock, just waiting on the reset I assume... I am just looking forward to what is in stock for wave 2!!! This line has me so excited!!!

Digital Ghost · 07-22-2012, 07:53 PM

As for the Nic line, I've already purchased 4 sets of the TMNT. Somebody stop meh!!! Okay well, I probably will now

Veedubguy83 · 07-22-2012, 08:17 PM

I should be getting mine from UPS tomorrow... I am pretty excited... It is going to be a long day at work

Yeah, each case either has two Foot Soldiers, or two Kraang's. Then two each of Shredder and Splinter.
