This is good news, right?? Of course! But the down side is, I have no money.

Yeah we've had them for a couple of weeks now. Got all the 5' figures but now I have to get some money for vehicles and the Leonardo swords and Donny's Bo Staff and the huge figures.

Toys 'R Us in Toronto has all the Series One figures, The Shell Cycle, The Battle Shell, Leo's Sword, and Don's Bo.

Now, if only I could find Series Two figs, I'd be one happy turtle!

They're in Calgary, I checked today . Don't buy them all please... save some for me!!

Oh, and they're 7 cents cheaper at Walmart compared to Toys 'R Us, thought you should know.

If you go to any of the stores in Calgary, could you please post how many they have left? I can do the same for you, I might be checking the Deerfoot Outlet Mall Walmart tomorrow.

well i just got one today. i got shredder for 9.88

they had all the figs there (except for splinter i think). i didn't look through the whole stack but the most abundant figure was mikey. don and raph had alot of figures too. i only saw one foot soldier, 3 shredders and a couple leos. i didn't see (or look for) splinter though.

and about the shredder fig, it is a good one but i don't like how the right arm has an elbow joint and therefore it can't be put down straight (like his left). the weapons are also quite floppy and his swords are bent from the package. anybody know how to fix this?

9.88 (I assume you meant 9.99) was the price? what was it including tax? they should really put that on price tags

no it was 9.88 and the tax worked out to be 11.36 (15%).

the one complaint i have about shredder is that his right arm is screwed up because of that elbow joint. i also noticed that the foot soldier has the same type of elbow joint on his left arm. hopefully the TMNT don't have those.

but it is a really cool fig. i love his left arm, and that "wolverine claw". his head also looks to be a tad big and his shoulder armour limits his arms, but otherwise this is an awesome fig. oh, and the swords suck because they are thin and floppy.
