Cool. I’m hoping to spread all 4 out over the course of 4 paychecks. Any reason to think they’ll be scarce immediately? Are any of the turtles likely to fly off the shelves first? It seems like Pizza club Raph and Donnie are way more rare than Leo and Mike.

I also saw one of the NECA dudes hint on twitter that the Lawson turtles would eventually get Black & White releases. I’m a sucker for B&W figs, but I’m not sure if I’ll go for these or not.

I hope to one day own the Eastman/Laird B&W turtles from way back. I currently only own the Playmates ones lol.

Anyone else notice that links posted here are now first redirecting us through at least 2 other sites? Including one called "coolmompicks.com"?

Ens#ittification has reached the old Drome. Guess that is the last forum link I click on.

Not me. The B&W figures remind of stupid stuff like how in Turtles Forever, we have to pretend the whole Mirage universe is literally existing in B&W.

Which again. Is stupid. Also, demonstrably wrong.

I mean...I do still want the 2008 B&W turtles. With dio. And I still need most of the parts for the colorized dio. Those are basically the "one that got away", and every trick NECA has turned on me since then was a futile attempt to replace that first love. My heart, and wallet, remains empty ever since. Had I paid $200 for them back when they still could be found for that price, and avoided the habit, I'd have saved untold thousands.

Not seeing this issue on my end.

Don't want to speculate but it sounds like possible malware on your device.

It seems someone has since fixed them.

Earlier today, you'd have seen this (you could use these steps to check future links):

If you're on a PC, right click one of the target links above. Copy the url/address (not the text). Paste that somewhere and observe how stupid the link is - it goes to some viglink.com first with a bunch of query string crap including an encoded version of the target url after it. Then viglink, which if you look that up it is a company that specializes in ens#ittifying the internet, parses out all that mumbo jumbo and rams you through another tracking site or two until you finally wind up at Target.

If you're on Android, you can long press the link and do the same thing (Copy link address, then paste elsewhere).

I'm a software engineer by trade, there is no malware on my device, it was all baked into the links.

Oh I loved that. I don’t seem to recall, did the characters themselves acknowledge that it was black and white? Because that is stupid. It should only be from the viewers perspective.

But I suppose the most logical thing would have been for all the characters should have been black and white once entering “Turtle Prime”.

Or - your head canon can tell you that one of the "Mirage Universes" literally exists in total black and white - because there would be parallels of that Universe that mostly conform to that Universe as well. One in b&w and another exactly the same but in color. The one they jumped into in T.F. happened to be the B&W one.

From what I remember, none of the characters acknowledged that the world was in black and white. If anything, the opposite was implied, because prime Donatello (I think it was him) asked the 2k3 toon turtles "what's with the multi-colored headbands".

Yeah I thought so. Maybe they said something in the first 2012 crossover? FW and 2012 both appeared black and white and the Mirage turtles were just drawings lmao.

Have the single Lawson turtles been showing up in stores yet? Or only online so far?
