Another packaging varient...sheesh

LAXtitan99 · 05-03-2004, 01:29 PM

To all of you collectors out there that collect every different packaging type for each figure...bad news...

I went into a KBtoys today and they had Leatherhead, Stonebiter, Razorfist, Casey Jones and Foot Solider with new packaging.

They have the cartoon network stickers but in addition have an enclosed pack of the series 1 fleer cards with a sticker that says "free pack of cards included" or something to that effect. The sticker is similar to the one they used if the toy had the video game codes in it.

I dont know if its a KB exclusive or how all will be done from now on but this is the first I heard of it.

I took some pics with my camera phone that I'll try to post after 9.

You don't -have- to buy the packaging variations, you know. And yeah, this is probably some sort of exclusive for KB. Wal-Mart got DVD's, KB gets cards.

I know I dont have to. Trust me I spend plenty on TMNT as it is that I dont need to worry about buying multiples.

I was simply posting this new bit of info for those who do care...thats all.

I know that the hardcore collectors want every varient out there. Even if it's only a very small difference. I'm not one of those people but if I had a huge budget just for figures I'd probably go for it.
