"New" Sewer Playset Released
The good news is, the sewer playset is out with the exclusive figure and ooze trap. The bad news (and this is REALLY disappointing), the "exclusive" figure is Turtle Titan Mike. Nothing new, nothing special, just Turtle Titan Mike. The box is the same as the other playset box (far as I can tell, I lost my old box), except in the top right hand corner there's a plastic covering (like the SWAT box, only to the right, not in the middle) and through it you can see Mike, the ooze canister and some sort of thing that looks like a mine. It's obviously the trap, but it's hard to see through the plastic. The box is a little wider (couple of inches) to fit the figure, etc. It's retailing at 49.99euro.
I was so excited when I saw it from far away, with thoughts of a cool looking figure I hadn't seen before pictured all over the box. Such a disappointment to see Turtle Titan. Now here's the thing, Turtle Titan isn't out here yet (Ireland only has wave 1, 2, 3, 5 and 6, same with the UK), so now I don't think he'll be released outside of this set (luckily I got him on import I didn't have my digital camera at the time so no pictures yet, but next time I'm going to that store I'll make sure to bring it with me.

I haven't seen the new one yet. The stores around here only restocked the regular playsets. What's the ooze trap like? |

Sounds fairly interesting. Is the Turtle Titan Mikea good figure? I saw a picture of it in some packaging, and it didn't seem very special. So I'm also curious on what it is that makes the figure a Titan.

Its just the figure from the new toon episode "The Unconvincing Turtle Titan", where Michelangello goes out to become a superhero. He calls himself the Turtle Titan, and he's dressed (sort of) like a superhero.

There are no Wal Marts in Ireland, the shop I found it in was called Smyths (www.toys.ie). I haven't seen it in a while, only the regular ones, but I will get a pic ASAP, it kinda got put on the back burner because of college starting up the last few weeks.
