I'm about ready to murder the folks running the Gamestop website... I ordered the 5 pack after they cancelled my old order and took the individual ones off their site.

Leo and Raph STILL say awaiting stock, Donnie has said processing for almost a month, and then I get a random notification that Mikey shipped and they charged my whole $260 bucks... I called, waited on hold for over an hour and told them to cancel the order and just charge me for the one they sent because I have since bought the 1st three sets in store since they can't seem to get my order processed. I'll take my chances on not finding Shredder. Fine. They refund me, takes about 4 days to process that, then they charged me again today the full amount AGAIN after only partially refunding me the 1st time and now my order doesn't exist on their website. Not even in the cancelled status. It's just gone. I have all my emails but their customer service is so freaking stupid they can't figure it out and put me on hold after another hour wait. Then I get disconnected. Wait on hold again for an hour and they hang up on me! I am SO ANGRY right now. There are not enough mad faces for this. So now I'm out $310 for one mikey and Alfred figure box until they figure this crap out and I am sitting her just stewing about having to call AGAIN and wait on hold AGAIN to deal with this crap right now... it's annoying enough for them to keep my funds in limbo like this but the 1 to 2 hour wait every time I call to get an idiot on the phone is seriously making me want to go walk into a Ganmestop with a bat and inexplicably beat a random employee to death. I KNOW it's not their fault, I KNOW there's nothing the stores can do with the online, but OMG THE RAGE! THE RAAAAAAGE!!!!

They did the same thing to me, only I didn't bother trying to call back in because they're incompetent. I'm just going to dispute the order via PayPal and let them sort it out.

Holy crap, drag0nfeathers! Your situation sounds awful! I really hope everything gets sorted soon with a proper refund and everything. I don't have the time for that sort of headache. Yeesh!

I received my Mikey/Alfred set yesterday. Mine showed up in a much larger box than I'm used to seeing, but I suppose they ran out of the smaller packing box. Luckily it was super protected with lots of bubble wrap, so while GameStop sucks, their shipping dept has been pretty great when things actually ship.

Pics from before I got the Alfred/Mikey set, so the B:TAS Alfred is standing in in these pics. I’ll post updated/better ones soon.








Edit: why did my first pic get resized (as desired) but my others did not? I don’t want to kill the thread with monster images so any help is appreciated

Edit number 2 after helpful post below (thank you): found way to post images as clickable thumbnails. Hope that is better.

Try using a free hosting service such as Imgur and then choose a lower resolution from the link options after you upload your giant photo.

Hopefully that should help. -thumb's up-

At the end of PixelDan’s video review of Shredder/Ra’s, he states that in an interview with DC Collectibles at SDCC, they said that a second wave, possibly consisting of the mutated characters, could happen if sales are strong enough.
I would be all in for that, so I hope it happens.

Are they going to do a sequel? sorry if that's a silly question, but I tried looking in to it, found nothing. Just thought someone here might know something.

No word yet. I do wonder if Nickelodeon’s new partnership deal with Netflix will put an end to any co-productions with WB, who are launching their own competing streaming service.

If there is a lack of sequel, I can see GameStop passing on a second wave which hypothetically wouldn’t be available for quite a few months.

A real shame, not a fan of the new Rise of TMNT show, so this was a nice treat. The figures look great and a second wave would be welcome.

I just received a GameStop pending charge for the Ra’s/Shredder set this morning. I ordered the sets individually, but in the same single order for those comparing to their own orders.

The Batman vs TMNT movie was on Nickelodeon the other day. Normally a WB movie would end up on Cartoon Network. I think that’s a good sign, they get to use the movie as programming content so hopefully that’s extra incentive for a sequel and more figures.

At SDCC, DC Collectibles said if they were to do a second wave, it would probably be the mutated characters

I think it's definitely a possibility. I think this movie is based on the crossover comic series. And that series had 3 volumes so if the sales are good I can see them continuing the series. And this might be a bit far fetched, when they first released the Batman/TMNT comic series, that was also another series released exploring the turtles in the Batman animated series universe. That can potentially be another movie.

I got the last set in this series Shredder/Ra's Al Ghul.

This is my favorite because I really like the villains pack!
