Found Ultimate Slash. Still no vacay henchmen. Though I haven't really decided yet if I actually need those.

You know what is kinda surprising? That we didn't see at SDCC any sign of what would be the Leo/Raph what-if "adventures" 2-pack to go along with Samurai Mike/Space Don. Was....was it those street style variant color ones? That'd be lame.

People always be complaining about Super7 figures don't seem to understand (or are in denial or are gaslighting) the cutting corners that NECA does.

I just got their repurposed Ultimate Slash.

Beautiful figure.

But the Binky had a peg to be attached to the jar, so I tried to insert in into the hole and then it snapped. Now, I am not going to complain to NECA about a negligible item that is worth 5 cent but it does seem to hold some memorable value with respect to the identity of Slash.

I've never had issues with Super7 other than loose and tight joints, but NECA figures and accessories keep snapping and flaking on me. Speaking of loose joints, Ultimate Slash, at least the one that was shipped to me, has them on the legs as well as annoyingly tight joint on the head.

Just my rant.

Couldn't get mine to fit either, so I let it be.

I saw everything on the shelves at Target. Left the Ultimate Slash figure - it looks great, but the original is fine and quite frankly I resent the "Ultimates" routinely coming on the heels of previously incomplete or lackluster releases to begin with.

I didn't even try to attach it to the bowl. I just plopped it in his hand and left it at that.

Found everything I wanted at Target in Michigan this weekend. I passed on the Archie stuff. Don't really collect that and I'm running low on room

Thanks to some comments I just read I have learned that this 2 pack gives Leo and Raph the jacket colors from their first appearance in them. In a later episode featuring Usagi, they wear the same jackets but in different colors which match the 4 pack.

Don and Mike's colors in the 4 pack are close enough to both appearances so I suspect NECA may not release a 2 pack for them...or if they do it will probably be the same colors. Mike's jacket goes from black to dark gray, and Don's from dark brown to light brown...both of those could be argued as lighting differences so they may not make variants.

Probably means that Wyrm and Tattoo aren't too far behind then now! Can't wait to get those.

Should I wait to pre-order the Cartoon Street Scene Dio?

....like is NECA planning on dropping the Kitchen, Dojo, Garage (reissue) Sewer sets before the pre-order window closes? I don't want to keep paying for shipping each time.

I'm starting to get confused because I thought there were going to be exactly 3 sewer sets. Living room, lab, kitchen. By dojo do you mean living room, and by garage do you mean lab? And when NECA pluralized their copy did they mean reissues of the 2 we already got, or now some 4th set?

If they could be more clear about this then I might buy another one of these, if there are going to be 4 sewer dios now. Otherwise don't need.

The living room can double up as the garage for the Turtle Van, so it seems like something they can reissue.

As for Splinter's Dojo, that remains unconfirmed, just some rumors.

I want to actually get 2 of the Cartoon Diorama, I would probably get a third, but I should save space just in case they make a Last Ronin Diorama (as hinted by the very existence of the accessory set).

I'm happy with my 3 total street dios which are all different (toon + movie + generic non-TMNT version). Makes it look more "realistic" when the buildings aren't all the same brick. But I display without the cardboard backers. Those may not go together well from those 3 versions.
