I'll buy it when it shows up. But only because I want a complete set.

Anyone know what the quality of these is like?

I hope they release lego sets of the OT series. It would be so awesome to own a lego Party Wagon!

No clue but considering the prices the real minifigs can go for these might be worth getting even if they are lower quality. The price is not bad.

Personally i already own all the sets so I'm good!

That's what I was thinking. I only have the cheapest set with Mikey and a Kraang, but I wouldn't mind having all the mini figures.

I do want to point out that, if the ones they send look exactly like the pics, the faces do look a LITTLE off... especially the one on mikey. it looks nothing like the two variations LEGO is producing. It looks like they even gave him a gap in his teeth like Donny!

Leo and Raph have the wrong green for their skin.

hey everyone, i can't decide on something

i haven't got any TMNT Lego sets yet, so I'm wondering: Which one should i buy, the shell raiser set, or the turtle lair set?

If you had to get just one, or just one to start with, I think the turtle lair is best! If you still can't decide, get the one that has the characters you like the most

ok, thanks. in that case, its the shellraiser set.

*Zulithe* · 06-27-2013, 01:16 PM

amazon has some nice sales on several of the TMNT lego sets right now. I updated the first post to inform people about potential amazon sales both current and future.

Check the first post for direct links to the sets! Some are 20% off or more at this very moment.

EDIT: I've changed my mind, i have ordered the turtle's lair set, although i plan on getting all the sets

*Candy Kappa* · 07-04-2013, 12:56 AM

Just bought the Baxter Stockman set, it is awesome. I love that Mouser build.

Now I only lack Leo of the Turtles, and I have to get the Shredder set. I might end up with them all...

LEGOs are like Pringles... "Once you pop, you can't stop."

I ended up buying every one of the sets, but aside from the Shellraiser and Stealth Bike, all I have out on display right now is the mini-figures.

I approve of your choice! It's also the only set that has Splinter. Obviously, this makes it the most awesome set. Heh!

Yeah I like it too, there's a lot you can do with the robot.

Cool! I have every set so far, they are worth every penny to me. I love LEGO. Can't wait for the upcoming LEGO movie, which btw, if you guys haven't seen the trailer... it has TMNT in it!

Just a reminder, there are amazon links in the first post, if you want a good deal on any of the sets you can find them on sale frequently there.

You think they will have new sets at SDCC?

Anything can happen but I think it is more likely they will show them at NYCC in October for a Dec/Jan release... that's if they actually are making more.

TMNT has a really strong toy line from playmates to compete against the lego sets... a lot of other brands don't have that, or when they do, the toys aren't as popular as the 2012 playmates stuff has been. I have no idea how well the TMNT LEGO sets are selling.

Mintyfresh · 07-11-2013, 08:20 AM

Where can I get the polybag set 30270(krangs Target practice). The cheapest I can find it online is about 30 bucks. Is this available in any stores?

*Zulithe* · 07-11-2013, 11:53 AM

Target stores across the nation are having LEGO clearance sales, I spotted some TMNT sets on sale for up to 30% off. Check your local stores guys. I saw Stealth Shell in Pursuit for $10 and change!

They are making room for the Summer 2013 LEGO sets that are rolling out now.

My advice is to go on brickset.com and look at the "links" section for this item. Check the various links there for places selling it and find the best price!

And you are right it is currently selling for RIDICULOUS prices... but that is not rare in the LEGO world

Sorry... but at least you can be happy this is not an exclusive minifigure or anything... it's really nowhere near worth $40 for what it comes with.

I understand why, as a collector, you may want it. But if you look at its parts list... it doesn't come with any rare parts... you could piece it together yourself from bricklink!

*Donatello19* · 07-13-2013, 04:47 PM

I caved and bought the Kraang Lab Escape set earlier. It's a really cool, fun set to build...however, right now it's in the form of the alternate boat build. If I had enough money to spare right now I'd buy the rest of the sets..too bad LEGO sets are pricey for what you get.
