There are pictures on google of a Rise TMNT 4-pack, probably the same.

I thought that was the 4 pack people ordered from target/Walmart, the pizza point turtles were supposedly supposed to come with more paint. “Basic action figures and accessories with added decoration!” Is how it was worded on the site, but I’m curious if it was true.

Received the package today, for some reason I can't get drop box to allow me to share pic.

*Zachatello00* · 02-04-2019, 11:14 AM

Having trouble getting pictures up too, but my order arrived today. It’s the four SDCC turtles, in plastic baggies with the accessories (nicely painted). It comes in a green “Sewer Squad” box. They look pretty nice, but don’t feel as solid as their counterparts that are sold in stores.

Here you are

andr0s81 · 02-04-2019, 12:54 PM

Thank you gentlemen! Might need to order a second set of these...

*Candy Kappa* · 02-04-2019, 01:39 PM

Ah, I thought the pizza point 4-pack had to be claimed through pizza points, but it's just pay $15 for the Ninja Warrior membership.

Cool. Might look into that, cause that's probably the cheapest you can find all four basics. But reship fees might not make it worth it

The Purple Dragon · 02-04-2019, 03:17 PM

Nope. Didn’t even know they were shipping until I got them today.

The-Shredder · 02-04-2019, 05:15 PM

I also got my Sewer Squad figures in the mail. When I opened the box, I was surprised at how they were cheaply packaged and just tossed in there, but for $15 and a better paint job I can't really complain. I never realized how small and slender these figures are until now. They remind me of the Fast Forward figures, but tinier. Raphael is the only one that feels like I'm holding a Turtles figure, which is strange given how his design is the biggest departure. The certificate doesn't include your name on it, which might make the whole thing feel less personal for some. I'm not sure if I want to keep these. Their designs are just way too far out there for me.

craigtheowl · 02-04-2019, 05:32 PM

I went ahead and did a quick review video for the Sewer Squad box for Yes Have Some Podcast on Youtube. Enjoy!

DonnieLaForge · 02-04-2019, 05:54 PM

Mine came today as well. They look to me to be the toyfair figures and accessories, but in bags instead of boxes. The only one I'm not totally sure on is Raph because he doesn't seem to have any special paint on his body or shell but his accessories are painted and when I look at Ebay listings for the boxed TF version he also looks to have no special paint. So I think, yep, for $15 we all got the TF figures that people had been paying hundreds for on Ebay since last February...so I think we can call this a win!

See question and response in attached image . . .

Folks don't expect a third run of these. I highly doubt there will be another "exclusive" for these figures. That would kind of defeat them being exclusive. Besides NECA still has to release the Foot and Shredder at both scales. NECA only produced the order amount GameStop requested. GameStop's pre-order in-take was clearly more than what they requested from NECA, which explains the canceled pre-orders. I don't know but doesn't look good for anyone who doesn't have an order being processed.

SDCC Raph have his band-aid on his arm and leg painted

*Zulithe* · 02-05-2019, 06:39 AM

Oooohhh so people are receiving them, good to know. I didn't even check the mail room yesterday, mine might be waiting! Can't wait to get home and see. Hopefully sometime this week they'll arrive.

Thanks for pointing that out. They all are in fact the "fancy" versions then. Although I also just noticed that the regular ones have their belt emblems painted nicer. So I guess its hacksaw Dr. Frankenturt time!!! J/k

*Candy Kappa* · 02-05-2019, 07:02 AM

Yeah, for some weird reason the retail figures have extra paint on the belt buckle, which they don't have in the show. But the markings have to be unpainted on the retails

*Zulithe* · 02-05-2019, 10:56 AM

Alright, yeah, found the box of the new $15 set in our package locker. Was delivered yesterday. Nice!

What a great TMNT deal this was. I hope lots of parents snatched this up for their kids too. You can't beat it.
