I have a buddy in the UK looking for the sdcc Batman Mikey. Has anyone seen it out there? I would have thought that Forbidden Planet would have gotten it but I’m assuming not at this point. If anyone has seen it please let me know so I can help my buddy out with it.

If I can't get something here I usually try amazon US before ebay due to high shipping fees. |

Rise Figures are discounted to £3.50 in Tesco, they seem to be the only supermarket still stocking them

The new Hot Wheels Classic TMNT line seem to be popping up in some ASDA shops. Noticed a Party Bus and Raphael the other day

The sets have been on clearance ($14.99!!) at Gamestop stores in the US and some have been popping up on eBay (US) cheaper. I managed to get two of the sets for an ok price this way. Still pretty expensive for us in Europe though with all the shipping and import costs. |

Is it me or is the UK (and I guess from your comments, Europe too) getting a really rough end to TMNT at the moment? 2012 was not easy at all to view all episodes from all series, but eventually got to see most of them aired. But at some effort. Rise is near impossible to find any episodes outside of the first 20 or so form season 1. Figures - the later Rise waves never made it here and these amazing Batman/TMNT figs never made it either. Just doesn't make sense, TMNT still has a huge following this side of the pond but it seems to me like they (who is they...Nickelodeon I guess?) really don't give 2 hoots about us fans over here. NECA is the only one who is making stuff available to us.

Thankfully, the Super7 Ultimates (not the ReAction figures for some reason) and NECA toys are available at specialty online stores. The Rise cartoon has also been off the air here for a long time now, I don't think it's coming back. |

TMNT retro figures
Hey all,
Hope everything is going well for everyone (crazy times!) Has anyone heard of a UK release for the Walmart vintage reissues (the titles and party wagon?)

Nothing official, I know of a couple of speciality shops that have a limited amount of import stock on the way but that's going to be expensive.

I mean that's the whole point of these re-issues, right? So we the customer only need pay retail for something that is expensive to buy 'vintage'? I'm not holding out much hope...

Just a heads up for the UK peeps. Some good deals on Kapow Toys at the moment.
Super7 Rocksteady reduced to 35GBP. NECA TiT Baxter @ 24GBP. NECA Genghis & Rasputin @ 35GBP. NECA Vernon & Rat King @ 35GBP. NECA Super Shredder @ 20GBP. Looks like some of the other Super7's are at 35 as well. Some good deals there if you ask me. Shame I already paid the original price for some of these, could've saved a tonne of cash!

Evening all
Long time no new Turtles stuff this side of the pond! The Ninja Elite series (the Mirage repaints of the Classic Collection 80s turtles) have popped up at a decent price on eBay, but be warned, they could be a fake at the price. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/154935814...r=455069685012

NECA Mirage Fugitoid up for pre-order at In Demand Toys.
NECA so inconsistent with international distribution, but I'm thankful this one has seen the light of day. Wish they would release the updated toon Turtles over here. Also wondering why NECA only ever do twin packs or Ultimates. The 1990 figures were released as basic single figures for 20GBP and that was a nice option.
