TMNT Final Variations.. (List and Pictures)

Ahhh, finally after going home from college today and visiting 2 TRUs, 2 Walmarts, 2 Targets, and 2 Kmarts, I have found some variations that I would like to share....

First, I must give credit to Rob_003 for hist list helped me get some new Turtles and I must apologize to him too for thinking he was wrong, heheh, ok, gimme some feedback on what you dudes think...

This list portrays what I have seen at the stores today. Below you will see pictures of what the Code Sticker looks like, what the Pamphlet looks like and two pictures of what the Turtles look like holing their weapons...

Here is what the TMNT figures look like while holding their weapons...



Sorry, Raph and Leo were too banged up to purchase, so I didn't. If you see the Video Game code Sticker on the bubble of the figures, thats what w/ Code means. Fi\or the ones that say w/ Pamphlet, this is what the pamphlet looks like tucked inside the bubble rap, behind the figure...



Ok, here is the variation list that I have seen or bought so far. Later in this thread I will post a complete, printable, cell phone friendly checklist...

Thanks for those 2 photos! These are so cool, I hope I find them soon.

I bought the Extreme Sports Turtles pretty early on. I even took them out of the case. The initial releases all came with Code Stickers since they were packed along with other characters containing codes. I don't think there are plain versions without the code. Do you actually have MOC versions without the code? Check the underside of the bubble and see if the code is actually missing from the back of the Logo insert. Stickers can easily be removed, so that would not count.

I have never seen these variations
April O' Neil w/Pamphlet
Foot Tech Ninja w/Code
Nanotech Monster w/Code

I don't think I have seen the extreme sport turtles without the Code or Pamphlet. But people say they have Foot tech ninja's and Nanotech monsters without ether so I would believe that the sport turtles would have shipped right along side them without any form of advertizing.

But yes there are the 4 basic turtles and the 4 extreme turtles with just the Pamphlet. They shipped out with the first shipments of the Foot Tech and Nano.

Hmm... I actually think I like it better when the figures aren't holding their weapons. I guess I'm strange...

There are extreme sports turtles without the codes.
I have all 4 of them. I actually got the ones with the codes first then a couple months ago I found them at target without the codes. I live in fresno and I checked every k-mart, kay-bee, wal-mart, target and toys r us and only 2 of the targets had them. It seems like they barely made any of them this way, I barely managed to get all 4. The sticker isn't the only thing thats not the same the back of the card doesn't have that little video game ad where it should show more of the other figures.
The Scootin Leo shows all 4 regular turtles and biker don and thrashin mike on the back.
The Skatin Raph shows all 4 regular turtles and scootin leo and thrashin mike on the back.
The Biker Don shows all 4 regular turtles and scootin leo and skatin raph on the back.
The Thrashin Mike shows all 4 regular turtles and biker don and skatin raph on the back.

There are also 2 versions of the first batch(the 4 turtles, splinter, shredder and the foot soldier) without the codes, they look the same except the assortment number on the front corner isn't the same, the first shipments of the first batch were 154020 and the newer batches that shipped recently were 53050. Both version look the same except for that.

I also have the foot tech ninja and nano monster without the codes and with the code and pamphlet. I haven't seen them with the code but without the pamphlet though.

Sorry I can't post pics but I hope this helps

Ooh that's interesting! Since you have all 4 Extreme Turtles W/O Codes, can you take Photos/Scans of the Front and Back Cards? Pretty Please?

Assortment numbers and Datestamps don't count as versions, not to me anyway. There has to be an actual change to the Package Design, A Paint Variation, A Pose Variation, Different Insert, etc for it to count.

Can you take some photos of the FootTech Ninja and Nano With Codes & Pamplet? Pweeety Please!

Those are the same pamplets for the videos right. It looks the same. When is there ever going to be a Ninja Turtles fan club? Ninja Turtles seem to be pretty hot right now. All the kids have on in their hands.

I'm not denying their existance but I'd rather wait to add them to my Listing until I actually have them in my hands or at least see clear photos of them. The only other figure I've seen with the pamplet is the Foot Tech Ninja. I saw it on eBay. My area has been slow with new shipments recently. They used to stock new items very early but not anymore.

Thanks to everyone for the heads up on these variants!

I hope so. They did it for NM so I'm sure they'll eventually do it for the new line.
