My Chromedome came today packaged in the special bubble wrap…great job, Neca!


Oddly enough, I got the shipping notice for it at 6:13 PM Central time…5 hours after it was already delivered to my house.

I honestly think those formed and hinged "bubble wrap boxes" are one of the best advancements in shipping technology ever. It's genius.

Have Napoleon and Atilla or Mondo and Kerma been released to Target stores yet?

Mondo Gecko seems to be available at every Target on Earth. I've never seen Punk Frogs #2 though.

I went by Target again last night and found four Chrome Domes so I picked up one. However, I have not seen Mondo Gecko and Kerma in the local store yet.

In Central Indiana, all the latest releases but the Foot Soldier are pretty plentiful and that's been the general feeling I've gotten from people in other locations. There are fewer Mondos than Muckmans left here, but still plenty of Mondos.

Dang, still the ONLY Neca TMNTs I've ever seen at any of my local Targets was the Splinter/Baxter 2-pack, and the only others I've seen in-store were Zorax/Zork and the first frogs pack, both at a Target I stopped at while on vacation.

My Targets have been bountiful with Mondo Gecko and Muckman, yet I have never seen a Foot Soldier in person.

No Chromedome for me yet, but there are still multiple Mondos, Muckmans, and Z/Z. We're down to one frog set at least!

I'll check again later this week. It certainly seems like he should be relatively easy to find, which is a relief since I rolled the dice and skipped the $15 surcharge NECA store option.

Same here.... I was beginning to wonder if the Foot Soldier has even made it to the shelves yet given the availability of Mondo and Muck.

I remember as a kid that Mondo Gecko was super hard to find. He was a big deal when he was released.

I didn't realize that Muckman and Joey Eyeball were released as well.

Yeah, it's weird. I think ultimately the only sets I've never physically seen are the Ultimate Foot Soldier, April/Foot Soldier and Slash/Leatherhead. The rest I've either found in bulk or saw eventually.

It's the same for me, but I can add the Casey set and the Turtles in Disguise set to that list...

I found ONE Turtles in Disguise set about a month ago. On the one hand, cool to see it in stores in person. On the other, it's like "where was this when I was spending $200 on eBay", you know?

I just love the fact that they call the foot soldier an "army builder" and it's the one set we've seen the least of.

I keep telling myself the rest of the Ultimate Foot (and unmasked Caseys) are in one of those containers stuck on the ocean. And for whatever reason, the containers of Muck/Mondo made it through first.

It was like the Foot Soldier two-pack from wave three or so. That should've been an ongoing release....

We can hope that's the reason. I have no hope though, of ever seeing any NECA TMNT at my local Walmarts and there's like 5 around me. It's severely frustrating.

I agree with this completely. For as much flack as Target gets, I've at least encountered all of that product in the wild. I've never seen any of the Walmart sets at an actual Walmart.
