Hopefully neca’ll have it on their site with the first part of the lair in a few months. I really would like a break after next week to replenish the “money bin”.

My Target keeps getting restocked with this stuff pretty consistently, and I have to say I've, at this point, seen everything at least once, though a few things several times... except for the accessory set, which I haven't seen at all. That's the only one I've never seen on the shelf.

After b*tching about the P+P costs, I bided my time and after the 3rd week I was able to add 4 figures I wanted to my basket - Shredder Clones, Zog, Rex-1 and Dreadmon. P+P stayed the same at 45USD.

Overall not too bad for 4 figures (not worth it for 1 or 2). The items have already been shipped.

I was gonna wait out for the next week of reveals, but there wasn't much more in the pipeline I could remember I was interested in, and also didn't want to risk the other figures selling out.

Note: I am in the UK. No indication of import fees...yet...

Thanks for sharing! Good to hear they've already shipped the stuff, at least it's a good indication of them handling international orders.

I'm also holding out until this friday to see what the final drop will include (obviously it will be Jersey Red/Grunt and Jagwar + one or two more). All of the Haulathon figures are available on AliExpress (except the Rogue Derelict Last Ronin) so I've been pondering whether I should take the opportunity with Haulathon or just go with AliExpress.

I've seen a lot of internationals in Facebook groups and such who've ordered the Haulathon figures from AliExpress and they all say it's legit. So I finally ended up ordering Chakahachi/Lotus and Dirk Savage/Mona Lisa from AliExpress since Dirk/Mona sold out on Haulathon, they shipped hours after I put my order in. So I will probably order the cartoon figures from AliExpress and go with some of the others via Haulathon since the Rogue Derelict Ronin is only available there.

Have heard that the Allie Express ones are using cheaper, more toxic paint. That’s the rumor going around so while they appear to look okay, they may be ones made cheaper using those methods. That’s enough for me to stay away.

I just picked up Rex-1, rd ronin, zog, jaguar, dreadmon, and Ray. The only thing I haven't seen in store is usagi. I even got the only accessory pack I've seen. Overall good haulathon for me lol

How does that even make sense? They aren't bootlegs or imitation products. They are official NECA early international releases.

I usually sniff my toys so that would be a problem.

Definitely true for 2008 Mirage and 1990 turtles. But for brand new releases, nope. These are factory-fresh legit figs that haven't been shipped overseas yet.

Jersey Red and the Thug are available still - 11 am central. Not buying 'em though. I'll risk finding them in-store with a Jagwar at some point.

Thank you....

Well a bit underwhelming...but but yeah some of this stuff is available in Toysrus in Canada...but not all them..

For example Jagwar is there but no Jersey Red... I guess if I'm paying this much for shipping, might as well get it all from one place.

So who can bring us good news on the accessory set? Anyone seen more rumors or evidence that we will have another MSRP stab at them?

Phantom Casey, indeed, alongside the Ultimate Rob Zombie Munsters' The Count, and two ALF toony classics: Baseball and Saxophone.
