I think my Mega Bloks collection is almost complete now, except for the Donatello Battle Pack... but I'm not finding Rock Soldiers anywhere online for less than ~$30. Ugh.

Can you provide a pic? Would like to see what a full collection looks like.

I have seen that several of the Mega Bloks sets have been showing up on eBay in Mega Construx packaging. I was curious if anyone has actually seen these show up in their area?

Which ones?
I've seen the branding switch on several sets. I'd have to rack my brain and open up my dupes box to remember them all but here are some off the top of my head:

- Pizza buggies (maybe only 2 of them...Raph and Leo maybe)
- Nick party wagon
- Classic party wagon (yes, I did see this in a TRU in person)
- I wanna say maybe the Raph/Rahzar rooftop cinema set???

I have not seen the Rooftop Cinema set. But I have seen numerous examples of the nameplate set and most recently, the Mirage Rooftop Combat Set and Transforming Turtle Mech

Looks like moths of waiting paid off, I found a full case of Series 6 blind Bags at Walmart in Sun Prairie WI today. I'm so glad I didn't get suckered into paying over $10 per figure through Toy Wiz. And since Walmart is evidently going to skip over Series 5 in my area, I can feel completely justified for paying a little extra to buy two cases of those figures online last year.

Spoiler:


Since I will still want a second Fish Face and Bebop, I just bought the whole case so that the store would get restocked right away. So if anyone wants some of the extras, let me know.

In the meantime, here is what I found for codes:
A07047MTN Dimension X Raphael
A08047MTN Vision Quest Donatello
A10047MTN Translucent Michelangelo
A11047MTN Super Shredder Leo
A12047MTN Bebop
A13047MTN Fishface
A14047MTN Foot Elite
A15047MTN Mystic April

I'd gladly buy some extras off you. I'll be DMing you right now!

I had a chance to stop by another Walmart yesterday morning and again this morning. Yesterday they had zero TMNT blind bags, so I took a chance that they might have gotten a restock at the same time as the store I found the blind bags at yesterday. It paid off. I found another complete case and was able to pick up a second Fishface and Bebop. So it definitely seems like any of the Walmart stores in this area should now be restocking with Series 6 instead of yet more series 4 figures.

That is a clever ass way to organize the unopened figures.

Thanks. It's a lot easier than having to go through the identification process every time.


By the way, it looks like Mattel has pulled TMNT from the Mega Construx web site. I was really hoping that they were going to sustain the line and relaunch it with Rise of the TMNT this fall. Hopefully I can still track down a Coney Island Escape, Slapshot Raph and Kraang Dunk sets to complete my collection.

Walmarts have moved the mutagen canister classics to clearance and moved the S4 nick bags up onto their pegs from the shelf. Flushing it all out...

Meanwhile my EE preorder of Coney Island just keeps getting delayed...

If anybody here is in Canada and stumbles on a wealth of discount store Coneys please please please get me one (or two!)...I will return the favor however I can!

There were a few additional small sets that popped up in Canada last year. And there seems to be a fairly steady drip of old sets popping up on eBay repackaged in Mega Construx packaging. (I just bought a Classics Party Wagon set last week.) But the only new item announced and expected to be released this year is that Leonardo figure. He is actually part of the Mega Construx Heroes line where they mix a number of licenses together such as Star Trek, Master of the Universe, Halo, and Futurama.

Looks like Entertainment Earth finally cancelled my Coney Island order. Shucks...

is it blasphemy to say that I think the Mega Construx minifigures are the best TMNT figures ever?
