MUTATIONS Spotted at Walmart (Pictures)...
Hi dudes, fond the Mutations and I just had to get them....
(CLICK THE LINK BELOW TO BUY THEM OR IF PIX DON'T WORK!) http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...tem=3164823243 (Sorry if pictures are in sloppy order)       Close up...  Backs...  ...I personally think they could have revamped the figures instead of using the exact molds as the old ones (Some new kind of transformation)... -Errol |

Prices...
The exact cost for each at Walmart was $9.97.
By me, the stores from highest priced figures to lowest are: KB, TRU, KMART, Target, Walmart... If you get them anywhere else, they could be more..maybe not...show knows.... -Errol |

You have no idea how much I've been looking forward to these figures.
*twitch* Christmas can't come soon enough. I know what my money's getting blown on now. And the fact that they come with Ooze?  . The new generation of fans have no idea how spoiled they are XD.

Where's Mutatin' Splinter? They should definitely make him, since there's shredder and foot ninja. Even the old toyline had Mutatin' Splinter, but he mutated from a man to full grown rat. This new show is based on original comics, so he would mutate from regular rat to ninja rat Splinter, just like the turtles. Playmates better make him or that will suck.

Well, I think half the reason they made these toys again is because it had to have been really cheap to use the same molds from 10 or so years ago.
If they made a Splinter from the new toon, they'd have to spend money making a mold for it and what not. I can only see Playmates doing that if they decided to make a Mutations 2 line. |

A lot of the new figures coming up are from old molds. It's brilliant strategy for Playmates. No new initial investment, minimal production cost, virtually 100% profit. Nice. And the new paint jobs on these mutation figures looks really great.

Vintage Splinter, what do you mean thats not cool? I'm not sure where you get your money to buy your TMNT figs but if I can buy some, and someone is willing to pay more for them, I don't see any problem with that one bit. Thats how I can buy the next series. They don't have to bid on my item. They know it soon will come in the stores, but if they want them early because it's not in their area, then they can buy them from me. The old figures were once bought in the stores, yes maybe 10 years ago, but isn't that still scalping them? Is there a rule somewhere where I have to let them sit in my attic for 9 years, then sell them? Plus, on eBay, TONS of people have auctions up for the new things too....
