I don't recall seeing anything, but I'm sure we'll get another update email in the coming weeks with their estimates. I'd wager Q3 or Q4 this year. But we can hope for earlier!

The style guide 4 pack allegedly will be available online on Target. Considering their track record, I'm not expecting much.

I'm inclined to agree however the way they're promoting this as a big thing, I want to give them the benefit of the doubt. I guess we'll have to wait until next week to see if this is real sh@t show or not.

Any word on whether these will feature the cel shading paint effect?

Well, Target did something similar last year with the SDCC/NYCC exclusives and GI Joe Classifieds were a sh*tshow and then they had the infamous McF Batman year 2 cancellations.

I imagine the NECA stuff isn't produced as much as the Joes (over 30k units), and would be more closer to the McF Batman which had probably around 6-8k run or maybe even less.

It's not going to be pretty

Hey, i just heard style guide 4-pack turtles is $150.
But TiD itself was $125 and packed with wayyyy more accessories.
I'm not sure if i wanna get style guide 4 pack anymore.

And a cooler looking display box!

Classifieds was terrible... until they fixed it, and then it was a breeze to get everything you wanted. Star Wars was the same way. I'm optimistic that this will go smoothly (though I'm not sure I care to get anything that's been teased so far).

The $150 price tag... oof. I'm not surprised though. Prices are jumping all over the place, and suddenly all of the 2020/2021 prices are looking like early bird specials. When I ordered TiD for $125 I was a bit grumpy about it because I was used to $52 for 2 figures, but caved out of FOMO. When it arrived over the weekend I realized that if this were released now it might very well be $200. Crazy.

Considering what the scalpers are asking on ebay for just the mikey and raph pack 150 for all 4 seems like a good deal even though they don't come with the cardboard cutouts. I'll definitely get it if it shows up in one of my targets.

Yeah, I was salty about paying $140 for my TID because they never showed up at my nearest Target, so I got them from someone off Facebook. I hope it's easy to get these online during Haulathon, because I definitely don't wanna end up paying resale price on them, and at this point I'm in full-on completist mode on the cartoon line.

Sorry for not digging deep enough to just find the answer for my self, but were the Ace Duck/Mutagen Man and or Anthrax/Scumbug sets ever actually released to Target stores or is it just NECA Store orders that have shipped out so far?

To this point, only from the NECA store. They haven't hit retail stores yet.

Looks like an impressively strong glow, too! Nice.

Looks like it, yeah. Fugitoid is also in the gif, which is interesting. I also saw that apparently Metalhead is being restocked in some of the Targets where the Haulathon stuff is already being put out.

These are a little better articulated too. At least assuming they use the TID bodies. Plus you do get the face options from TID.

These don’t look like the bright colored versions that Raph and Mikey come at huge prices? Am I wrong? They look darker.
