What do you guys expect? Old stuff released again? New stuff? A triceraton-arc set (Fugitoid, Triceratons, Utroms, general Blanque...)? A City at war set (Karai, Robyn, Gabrielle, Foot Elite, some Foot robots)? There's a lot of characters from Mirage that we could get: Stockman, Casey Jones, Radical, one of the fish-people

I think Casey Jones will be the first “New” figure we get at some point, and most of the figures initially will be updated/repainted reissues of the figures already released. Like I think the checklist image of yellow and green Aprils are a clue rather than a mistake. Casey should be able to be made with some reused parts from the Foot.
I’m hoping all of them, especially Shredder, get the stark black & white treatment too as NECA does that so well...maybe those will go to Lootcrate?

Hopefully we do get a massive mirage style Triceraton at some point too.

if they did rerelease april, i hope its a mutagen set with her fish and cat counterparts, although if it was a large set they could do her wasp form as well.

They were referring to the yellow jumpsuit and green jumpsuit Mirage April O’ Neil.

Here a Toy Hype USA review of Ultimate Krang’s Android Body: https://toyhypeusa.com/2020/12/31/ne...igures-review/

Ace Duck's only appearance in the old toon, was that minor cameo as a TV actor in the background of "Attack of Big MACC". I'd wonder if they would be who he's packed with, but the character is so minor & forgettable that it's pretty unlikely, I guess. Mutagen Man would be cool, given they're both largely remembered for being a part of the original toyline.

Be still, thy heart. I'd be soooo hype for that. We need a good Baxter, Savanti, Utrom, & Renet, too. If NECA could ultimately produce some Image/Vol.3/Urban Legends turtles, I think I'd faint.

They mentioned in the video they're looking into Archie, right? I read that from someone's breakdown of the video elsewhere, I've not watched it myself. That'd be cool, if so. I'd be down for a set of turtles, at least. Mutanimals, too.

[MikeandRaph87]

Powder,he specifically stated Ace Duck is slated to be paired with a villain. However, would Muckman and Mutagen Man be considered heroes or villains? That being said just telling us that it's a villain doesn't mean much. One I considered was Tattoo. A character that was name dropped towards the end of the video. The reason is like Ace Duck he had a mere cameo after a toy was released and left much to be desired. A hamster turned not into a humanoid hamster, but a human sumo? Ace Duck a movie character? Both left us confused and disappointed so if it's not Mutagen Man why not Tattoo for the above reasoning?

[Powder]

I know, but half the "villains" in Fred Wolf sorta fluctuate their positions, anyway. Even MACC was somewhat co-opted by Shredder & Co.

Ace Duck, being a TV star, should've been paired with Bugman, another figure from fictional media within the series. That woulda been dope. I hope we GET a Bugman at some point, in general.

[Night Monkey]

I’m just looking for the Splinter/Baxter two pack and the Krang Android set. Would like the two pack that had Shredder and Krang as well. I have a spare Bebop and Rocksteady still sealed in box with the Nick logo if anyone is interested in that.

Thanks!

[Poole]

Does anyone know where or if krang Android will be released in UK? I have all the rest of t cartoon wave and it’s stressing me out! (Happy new year)

[funatic]

Is there even a Target URL for Krang yet?

I’m betting

-April in green or yellow finally released.

-Cartoon Casey repainted for mirage. I already use cartoon Casey in my mirage set up anyway.

-rerelease of the turtles if they still have the molds.

-Splinter, cartoon resculpt

when I was talking about purchasing for other collectors, this is what I was talking about, once again, this is a member of a "group" buying out the entire stock for others....I'm sorry this just doesn't sit right with me

sorry about the size of the pic

[turtlefan27]

My target never has these, and I've only seen them once at a comic shop without were selling them for way more than I could ever justify spending for figures.

I get that. I have asked and seen tons of others ask for people to keep an eye out and you never see those posts get any comments or likes even using their hashtag. You comment on their posts and it's either "sorry already left, I'll keep you in mind" or "these are already claimed" but then the same people keep buying up all the stock for the "group". If they all keep buying entire store's stock than how many people in the "group" still need them?
I followed several of these people to see if I could get anyone to help out and so far that is all I have seen since Krang started showing up.

Best part of the interview for me. Love that he mirage line should be easy to get.

I have personally been helped out via this group. Not saying there might not be some bad apples but I am proof that some of them are genuine

Yeah. I’d rather the groups be there and potentially help people rather than scalpers take it all.

but they're taking it all....I mean, I'm a collector, what if I walked in and saw this guy buying everything, am I SOL bc I'm not part of this group?

[JonesyKitty]

I hit 8 Targets today with no luck. Still no help from the group on Twitter. If I don't find Splinter and Krang tomorrow at the only other Target then I am just gonna say screw it and order them off ebay. At this point I just blew $40 in gas and only went to all those stores because we looped around while going somewhere else and just stopped on the way. So even if I had found them that's roughly $130 for the figures and gas to find them and since I didn't find them and have to search even more that's going to close to if not $200 in the end. I may as well just save the trouble of gas and driving around for no reason when we should be staying in and just eat the fact I had to pay some POS that bought up all the stock in our area.

Sorry to hear this man. This is a living example of what I've been saying about the ridiculousness of the situation. Try to order from that place I mentioned a few pages back - canucktibles.ca I think it was.
