This went up yesterday, sold out, then went back up a few hours later. I forgot to post it here. Sorry. But good news, it's still up.

pre-order for Fury Toys Donatello, with $1 deposit (they match the $1, so you get $1 off as a result.) FREE SHIPPING.

Downside, they don't state the full price yet. But it will be comparable to what 5ktoys charges, could be a small difference.

I have used this store before. It has a great reputation. You can either order here, wait for 5ktoys to put it up, or try to get one on Aliexpress.

https://gundamit.com/fury-toys-1-12-...llo_p1946.html

Gundamit shares an account system with their sister site, showzstore.com. I don't know why they have two different sites since they are nearly identical, but if you have already ordered from showzstore then you know what to expect from them.







BONUS: review of Leo from TheFwoosh:



I've already harped on the size, which I still feel is a downside to this line. But they still offer a lot in terms of great paint apps, unique look & style, and overall quality to justify buying for my collection. I hope many agree.

... and with that, now we wait for Splinter (hopefully next), Mikey and Raph.

I hope nobody sleeps on Splinter and the parts pack (which comes with the four baby turtles, and some great new heads for Don/Leo)

$1 each to lock in a pre-order... worth it.

Keen on Master and the baby turtles, but have zero need for the other supplementary parts.

Given the lack of clear communication around this release (including actual retail costs) I'm finding it hard to pull the trigger on a pre-order with a retailer I've never heard of. The dollar deposit only makes me more heaitant.

All I have to add is that Gundamit and Show.Z Store are both extremely reputable. I have ordered multiple items from them, and I'm in some Discord servers where people regularly order from and recommend them.

The final costs you will pay, after accounting for shipping and such, will be very close to 5ktoys, and you might even get them faster than from 5ktoys based on some reports I read. As for the actual final costs and which site will be cheaper, I'm not sure, there could be a variance of a few dollars, and I'm not sure which site will be cheaper. I can tell you this... gundamit/show.z tend to list the items at a cheaper price when they first come out, then after some time, they raise the price -- but this is common practice on import sites. So you usually want to order early as possible.

Thanks for all the info. Given you vouching for them and after reviewing their cancellation policy, I've given them a crack. I'm still a bit dirty about having to buy the turtles' heads as well, but we'll see how it all plays out.

Finally got around to opening Spring - I really like this figure now that he's in-hand.

The shell construction is especially nice with the partial pivot at the waist, while the paint work is exceptional.

Can't wait to see the rest of these guys.

Does anyone know which size won for Donatello? If the taller one won, I’m out on this line. He would be way too tall in comparison and I’m particular about scale.

This exact reason is why I abandoned the Transformers R.E.D. line, which is ashame because it was an amazing concept. And then they released the Bumblebee figure.

Autumn, The Master and the Supplementary Kit are up for pre-order on 5ktoys.

Autumn - https://5ktoys.com/collections/pre-o...-action-figure

The Master - https://5ktoys.com/collections/pre-o...-action-figure

Supplementary Kit - https://5ktoys.com/collections/pre-o...ementary-parts

On a side note, I don't know if it has been confirmed by anyone but is the FuRay Crocker figure part of the same series as the Fury Toys figures?

Absolutely love the look of these figures! They're perfect modernizations in my opinion. Recently lucked into getting Spring and I cannot wait to get the others! Grabbed Autumn, Master and the accessory set and I think I'll be all in on this line. Yall see the teaser for the next subline from Fury Toys yet? Abyss Force, which is gonna be sharks.

Already had mine ordered from gundamit personally.

I was hoping we'd see this 2nd wave a lot faster than "q4 2023" based on 5ktoys estimate. That's rough. I hope it's just a veeeery open-ended estimate.

Maybe at this rate we'll get all 4 turtles and splinter by q4 2025.

The Usagi look alike is over 8" tall and made by a different company from the turtles. Way too big to go with them.

I still don't understand why every other one of their upcoming releases are so much taller than their not-Leatherhead.

Not much, his ears aren't very long and the Fury Toys turtles are only about 4-5" tall as it is.

new pre-order. This time for 3 shark brothers with a bonus parts pack. If you just want 1 or 2 of them and not all 3, and don't care about the bonus parts, you can get them individually.

Big King Shark vibes from DC, but also Street Sharks... and a little Armaggon I guess.
