It's been pushed back from august to sept and now 4th quarter 2012. Just wondered if they would actually be getting them

I preordered a 12 figure case of the Classics from BBTS. 3x each turtle. Hoping the order is fulfilled.

I pre-ordered a case at the end of July- first time I've ever ordered anything from BBTS. It makes me nervous that they've changed the shipping date so many times- I'm hoping that Playmates is going to push them for the holiday season, I would hate to miss out on these (considering I've passed on them in the store because of the pre-order).

man i am glad i did preorder 2 cases from bbts so i dont have to pay the ebay prices hopefully a new batch will come soon, and some news on a wave 2.
i think the classic has proven they can atleast put out one more wave since they have gone faster than hell

I pre-ordered a Case of 8 Classic TMNT figures on BBTS when they first listed it. At 5/24/2012 BBTS send me an email to let me know the Case of 8 got changed to a Case of 12 and that they would also have a new set of 4 available. I ordered a set of 4 instantly that day and cancelled the Case of 8 which became a Case of 12. The set of 4 became available to ship to me on 7/20/2012. I cancelled and re-ordered another set of 4 because I had too many other pre-orders coming in at the time and used the BBTS credit for those instead.

I'm still not a 100% sure if I want the classics figures or not because of their large scale which doesn't really fit in with any other toyline I collect except maybe Bravestarr.

I already have a few sets of the 1988 Turtles along with a few customs in the works of them for Undercover and cartoon accurate, the Movie Turtles, 200X Turtles and NECA Turtles and am considering the Nick Turtles as well! All these fit in with all the previously made TMNT figures so I still have doubts about getting the classics.

I started to collect the 1988 line again (loose, complete) along with the follow up lines where I left of and try to make it more complete with the exception of the TMNT variants.
The only TMNT variants on my 1988 want list are; Leo the Sewer Samurai, Undercover Don, Mike the Sewer Surfer and Raph the Magnificent. I chose these 4 because I personally think they resemble the characters decently. I possibly want the Headdroppin' and Storage Shell TMNT as well.
Next to those I'm still missing: 9x Foot Soldier, 2x Triceraton, Robotic Rocksteady, Robotic Bebop, Shogun Shoate, Toon Zak the Neutrino, Hot Spot, Scratch, Gate Keeper Rocksteady, Warrior Bebop, Tyranno Shredder, Mini Mutants Donatello, Mini Mutants Raphael, 6x Movie Star Foot Soldier,
Movie 3; April O'Neil, Princess Mitsu, Kenshin, Whit, Rebel Soldier, Warlord, Walker, Samurai Evil Warhorse with Castle Guard, 12" Krang's Android Body, Turtlecycle, Mutant Module, Oozey, Next Mutation; Venus, Dragon Lord, 8x Rank Warrior, Vam Mi, Silver, Bonesteel, 200X; Foot Tech Ninja, Stone Biter, Razor Fist, 2x Utrom, Usagi Yojimbo, Doctor Malignus, Traximus, Drako, Ultimate Ninja, Dark Assassin, Butterfly Swords, Gen, Hamato Yoshi, General Blanque, Karai, Minnetonka Mutant, Quarry, Baxter Stockman, Rat King, Nobody, Agent Bishop, Torbin Zixx, Sh'okanabo, Jammerhead, Dark Leo, Dark Don, Dark Raph, Dark Mike, Mini Turtle Michaelangelo, Battle Shell, Turtle Lair Playset, 2007 Movie; Karai, Max Winters, Vampire Succubor, Jersey Devil, Spider Aracknor, Sloth Monster, General Gato, General Mono, General Aguila, General Serpiente, Big Foot, Dumpjumper, Thrashmor, Raphael vs The Yeti... Trying to complete this list eventually!

I think you underestimate the awesomeness of the classic figures. They are my favorite figs by far from the past few years. I promise you will appreciate them even if they don't fit the scale of the other figures you currently own.

That sounds really good. You convinced me to pick them up!

[A little *too* Raph]

Yeah I'm hoping they are waiting for the holiday season as well. I ordered the neca 4 pack from them way back when and I think it got pushed back a few times too now that I think about it.

I may have to check out my toys r us anyway

[strawberryfields]

I live in Minnesota and my TRU didn't have any. Although I'm glad they didn't otherwise I wouldn't have picked up the basic set

[TheCanadiandrome]

Really hoping my Walmart gets em soon
