I'm getting Karai and Minnetonka Mutant with bonus DVDs for definite One of my sisters had a huge Smyths toys bag with her the other day so I'm hoping she got me a big vehicle! My friend's trying to get me a Raph Vs Yeti set in America but he mitn't find it. Other than that everything else will be a surprise! I would have ordered the two latest DVDs but I wouldn't watch them because I haven't seen the non-DVD episodes yet

I haven't a clue... But I know I will be getting TMNT stuff...

I keep an updated list on a website of mine with a list of what I have, and what I don't have but want so it is really simple. And I agreed to stop purchasing TMNT at the beginning of December so they wouldn't have to wait until the last minute to get them..

I am figuring I most likely will be getting figures because they are what I want most. I am going to go to Walmart and get myself a Sewer Playset ($29.98 Cdn) but other than that, it'll all be a surprise... I prefer it that way!

No.

The 1988 figures are garbage, don't get those.. brand new 1988 figures still on the card is gonna cost a LOT. And they're not easy to come by on ebay either, so I dunno how you're going to get these so easily.

The tmnt Movie Star figures are the best, I'd much rather get them. But even those on card are really hard to find, and they were made in 1991.

and christmas isn't just about what you're "getting". You don't just go "Hey mom, get me this, this and this." "Hey Jim, I'm getting this for Christmas" "Ya well I'm getting this and this" It's like, aren't you just supposed to ask for things, and then you might get them, so its somewhat of a surprise..? Or something? I dunno, you guys are all %$@&*$ retarded.

Anyways, I already have a garbage 1988 figure so I'm not asking for that. I'm asking for a couple Xbox games (the ORIGINAL Xbox, I would never bother with that 360 garbage) and some DVDs. None of this "Sewer Playset" garbage.

So you guys and your Minnetonka Mutants, your Hamtaro Yoshis and what have you, can just have fun with all that garbage whilst I'm kickin back bustin some skulls in Blitz: The League none of this garbage you guys got goin on here with your "Return to New York boots" garbage.

Garbage, I tell you.

You know what I'm saying

You'll wish you listened to me later

garbage...

Anyways, I just posted this to look at my post count and crap

Funny, most of us don't see it that way! They are the origin of all the toys we have today!

You have the right to your opinion. If you love those ones, good for you... But once again, without all the turtle toys that came before these and were a hit, these would have never existed... So the 1988 figures we a stepping stone for these.

It isn't like we are being greedy people here... The thread is ABOUT who knows if they are getting TMNT merch and what. Many of us don't know, and many of us do. It is better to get what you want versus something that will collect dust. And I am sure I speak to most of us Technodromers when I say the last remark is just plain naive and rude! You asked for Xbox games.... OMG... What if you get them??? You have a suspicion you'll get them so you kinda know what you are getting...

So I guess Xmas is about what you are 'getting' Krako.

See, some of us still appreciate things before "bustin some skulls in" such as action figures, and the toys WE grew up with. And we are easily thrilled and heck, a $5 figure can make us elated...

Any chance you had of us taking you seriously and listening at all to your opinion went down the shoot early in this post.

Funny, I thought posting to increase post count was against the rules!



Anyways... Hope all of you turtle fans get what you are hoping for this Christmas. I am looking foward to the figures I know I'll be getting although I don't know which ones specifically

www.myteefinestuff.com has everything TMNT you can think of. They have just about every old-school figure on card or loose. Right now, I'm going to buy the movie star turtles loose when I get the money after Christmas. (No, it's not my site either, but I thought you guys might like it.)

I know for a fact I'm getting the Winking Mystic Mike for X-mas. I'm glad they finally made one kind of variant TMNT from the new show. I don't know if it's for certain, but I think either my girlfriend's parents or grandparents are getting me the Leo Statue for Xmas... if they do, I'll go ape-sh*t!

As of now, that's the only thing I know of TMNT that I'm getting.

I wouldn't use myteefinestuff for figures. I have used it in the past for random merch like the ninja turtles foam soap, but their figures are WAY overpriced.

I suggest eBay for the movie star turtles.

I use Myteefinestuff for my some of my birthday and Christmas gifts. My mom spends at least twenty to thirty dollars total on there. I'm not a crazy guy who's gonna spend eighty bucks for loose/complete Undercover Leonardo. The vintage Rat King I'll be gettin' is loose/complete and he's under ten dollars. Heck, the last toy show I went to I paid five bucks for soft head Bebop MOC.

Krakko, I don't see why you have to bash the 1988 figures. Those are the figures that started it all. I didn't get a chance to buy all of 'em when they first came out cuz I wasn't born in the '80s. I'm tryin' to get all the 1988 figures so I'll have the first collection of vintage figures.

Today, from my secret santa at the other forum I go to, I got the TMNT Walkies and a TMNT Movie 1 poster with them sticking their heads out of the sewer in REALLY GOOD condition. I was stoked when I got the poster! I framed it tonight and hung it immediately. Something that precious cannot be left rolled up!

Okay... so... it's 2 days after Christmas and no one has posted what they got! I'm going to go ahead and start this off for official reasons.

MECH Wreckers Leo and Raph
Fugitoid figure
Utrom Figure
All 5(!) Mystic Turtles (This does include winking and regular Mikey)
The huge TMNT Tin with Popcorn
The Mini Tin with turtle shaped candy from Target
The 4 Turtle Chocolate Bars
Mikey Ornament
Huge Playing cards
Extremely Mini Playing cards

I pretty much ended this Christmas like a TMNT Thief. It's nice! Not only that, but I also got a lot of other cool stuff too!

So far all I've gotten is Karai with a bonus DVD. I'm still waiting on my Minnetonka Mutant to arrive in the mail. I got money to go buy TMNT though
