Are the mini figs out?

donafellow · 03-05-2003, 08:09 PM

anyone finding the turtles mini figures and at which stores?

PhoenixFire · 03-05-2003, 09:10 PM

Yeah, I had a post awhile back about the same thing. So far they only had them at Rite-Aid stores. $3.99 a piece. I got all 4!

Vroomkid · 03-05-2003, 09:37 PM

I heard they're all the same molds only recoloured (kinda like the original ones shrunk down??) with no weapons. That true?

How "small" are they exactly?

PhoenixFire · 03-05-2003, 09:42 PM

Yeah, they aren't worth $3.99 a piece. But I found them so I got them all.
All the same mold, like the 80's molds. No weapons, that loss them the AWESOMENESS factor. But at 2 inches tall they are small enough to look really cool next to a old Leatherhead Action figure.

Haha, true that, I can picture it already. Leatherhead's always cool in my books. Anywho, too bad I'm in Canada and we didn't even get the basic Wave 1 toys yet, much as the mini's.

Speaking of which, did the huge 12 inches one come out yet? The fanbase has been raving on with the vehicles, basic fig. and now the mini...but what about the huge ones?

I got a 4 pack of the mini-figs at a CVS today. They were 4.99 for the set, much cheaper than buying them separately. I dig em, they're certainly a good value for $1.25 a piece. I wish we got some weapons though.

What's cool is that splinter, shredder and the foot soldier are listed on the back of the package, so I guess we're getting them at some point too.

You mean they'll come as minis too?...Cool indeed! Maybe now we can get that foot army going finally with 1.25 a piece.

Anywho, since the Turtles are old repaints from original line, do they have the old Shredder, Splinter, Foot shrunk down? Or are they the new molds?

Todd4LOM · 03-05-2003, 09:56 PM

They must be new molds. Unfortunately they have an illustration of the characters, not actual figure shots.

Vroomkid · 03-05-2003, 10:00 PM

Looking forward to it still!
Maybe they'll do the Casey, April, Hun minis too - now that would be cool

*Kid Icarus* · 03-05-2003, 10:19 PM

dang... we don't have rite aids here. Anywhere else? Like a big chain (Target, Wal Mart, etc.)?

Todd4LOM · 03-05-2003, 10:23 PM

I think these are limited to thrift/drug stores.

PhoenixFire · 03-05-2003, 10:46 PM

Yeah, just cvs and safeway companies.

Yes, the large 12 in. figures are indeed out. They were spotted before the 5 in. figures, way back before Christmas.

**HorseTechie** · 03-06-2003, 10:48 AM

Ohh.. I love to get one of these minis too!

So it seems that just drugstore have em then... interesting.

A 4 Pack Of Minis? Cool. Would you happen to have a photo? I would be very interested in purchasing a pack or two from you if you'd do me the favor. Please email me at: [email protected]

If anyone has these Mini 4 Packs and/or a set of 4 individually carded minis I will buy! They're all I need to complete my collection.

Todd4LOM · 03-06-2003, 08:09 PM

I'll see what I can do, there was only one set left on the pegs when I got mine. I already opened my set so I can't get a picture. No one on eBay is selling them yet?

PhoenixFire · 03-06-2003, 10:03 PM

I went ahead and scanned a pic of all 4 turtles into my site in the gallery section, its not the four pack, haven't seen that yet. But this is what they look like!!

Its in the gallery, carefull though, its raining the cheat in there right now...

Hm, my grandparents have a Saveway in denver. I should have them pick me up a set.

Why not anywhere else though? like a Walgreens?

*That Matt Guy* · 03-07-2003, 02:04 AM

I wish they had the figs at Wallgreens, if they did I would steal them. I have to continue my guerilla war with Wallgreens; after they didn't hire me!

And I can't think of a better way to get back at them then stealing TMNT toys.
