haven't heard of anyone finding them in the USA yet.

I am hoping they will go on walmart.com that will be the easiest way to get them

No, now I would say anytime they feel like building a TMNT display, based purely on if they want to, because of my store not having a regular toy manager person at the moment.

May 10 was according to a signage box.

I think I am going to go for a set. I like the overall look, and they came with some neat accessories. With the new unique skin tones, they remind me more of the 2003 4kids turtles.

I know some of you guys don't like the classic line, but I would still love the Krang and Shredder.

Looks like a few of my Walmarts did a reset with tags for the 1990 movie turtles, but no figures yet or even the truck with exclusive Leo.

Saw some folks on Instagram who found 'em last night. In California so far.

After checking three Walmarts (luckily, there are five within 15 minutes of my house), I finally found a store with the new figures. The Walmart only had one of each turtle, so I picked up Donatello. Still iffy on the other turtles since I have a complete Mondo set coming along the SH Figuarts turtles.

If you've got Mondo and Figuarts coming I'm pretty sure it'd be easy to pass up Playmates attempts.

Indeed. But I had to get Donnie to hold me over until the NECA version comes out.

By the way, I have a complete MISB set of movie turtles (version 1) available. If anyone is interested, let me know.

found these in walmart today. only 2 of them randomly sitting next to the other turtle stuff. a lot bigger than i expected. Looking fot Michelangelo still.

Found them! Went to Wal-Mart yesterday, and they had an entire new set of shelves just for the new Bay-movie turtles and these guys. Bought Mikey (of course) because at 20$ a pop, a full set might be pushing it. I already spent almost 30$ on the three "costume" Bay-movie turtles (Leo in the hoodie, pirate Mikey, and Raph in the wingsuit) which they also had. So I might pass on the other three classic ones, though I gotta say, I LOVE them so far! Pulled Mikey out of the box, and he is really much more impressive out of the box than the pics have shown. Articulation is nice- even fingers and toes! (Sorry, I don't have the cash to throw at the "high-end" figs that have such things) The "doughnut box" and "combat cold-cuts" were so cool, and I love the extra heads. Though they could have made them a BIT more different, as two look very similar. The only issue is that one shoulder joint is very stiff and won't move fully- I'm hoping to loosen it up somehow, but otherwise, he's great! Fingers are a little loose, too, but not terribly so.

I also saw a Technodrome AND the new Tortuga truck from the movie, and I REALLY want the truck- and I'm torn on the Drome, since my Krang needs his drome, but Do I really have the space or cash for it? Ah, these are the problems of apartment-living....

Well I drove all over Pittsburgh today trying to find a decent set of these since I plan to keep these in the box.
I found a Good Leo & Don at my first stop (Carnegie, PA) sadly Mikey and Raph had horrible running eye paint.
Second stop (Washington, PA) had the 4 of them just sitting on the shelves all had very bad paint jobs and Raph's box was dented in.
Third stop (South Hills, PA) didn't have them out yet or a stock boy bought them.
Fourth stop (Century 3, PA) just got the box of 4 figures in on the truck and the nice woman went and got them for me sadly Raph's box was crushed so I got Mikey who looked way better.
Fifth stop (Robinson, PA) had the shelf ready for them but they didn't get their shipment yet.
Sadly I still need a Raphael now because of the dents, and bad paint jobs.
If you're picky like me you're going to want to look these over real good before purchasing them.
It's pretty sad that at $21.00 after tax that these don't have flawless paint jobs.
It should also be noted that it seems that each store only got one box of these in.
I'm going to have to keep checking back as I hope Playmates isn't dumb about this and sends a bunch of these to stores for the release of the new movie.

Thanks for the offer! I'll post here if I find a good one before that.

Picked up Mikey at walmart today. So much fun to pose and like others have said the multiple heads are a great addition to this line. Many poseable options. The hands arent the easiest to hold stuff with but i really dont wanna gripe about it at all. Extremely satisfied. There is a holster in the back for the cold cuts too if you can't decide which ones you want him to hold, haha!

I wanted raph really badly as well but had to limit myself to one.

My walmart has been terrible. About stocking these. They throw one in a random place every other day.

Both Walmarts in my town have the fixtures 19.98 but no figures. 3 pegs for them... blank
