Good move, NECA. They also said it'll have flat rate shipping cost after the complaints about Shredder, and they also sent out a $5 coupon to people that bought Super Shredder. in an email?? I didn't get a coupon, but I got the email about Metalhead and Casey's mask

Went to 2 Walmart stores today and didn't find Super Shredder, but both Walmart stores had 2 Casey and Raph packs...
Between TMNT and AEW I'm batting a zero!

NECA thinks we’ll have time to use a coupon at checkout. That’s cute.

So two days ago I found the casey/foot soldier and slash/leatherhead two packs at my local target. They had 4 of each but no april/foot two pack. Is the april two pack being released later? I've messed up my knee so haven't been able to hunt. If they have Casey/foot, slash/leather head, or metal head left. I would gladly pay for them.

"hey sorry we porked you on shipping for the last figure, here's 5 bucks off another order!" At what point does this start getting to be considered trolling? We get it. You don't like it.

You don't like it. you dont need to respond to it. last i checked this is a message board....where people have conversations and share their opinions about things. just because my opinion is negative about something doesnt mean i cant share it

NECA thinks we’ll have time to use a coupon at checkout. That’s cute. I think they're assuming people will use it for Metalhead though. And Metalhead's a pre-order, not a limited stock release. There's a window of a week to buy it, then they make the figures based on the orders. Same as a lot of import companies, as well as what they did with Tokka/Rahzar. That Super Shredder thing was a debacle, though.

I've been busy - made two separate TMNT videos for my YouTube channel. The first one is a look at many of the versions of the TMNT to try and see which are the best. This video's been getting great feedback, and I think it's a good look at a lot of the versions available (even if I did forget to mention the DC Collectibles ones, haha).
The second video is a sewer diorama I made for my NECA animated TMNT figures. I love how this turned out, it was a lot of fun to make.

As for pickups, I found two Casey/Raph sets two weeks ago and grabbed them for my friend and I. I did have to do some modding to Raph's leg, which was suffering from a stuck joint in the hip. Luckily he's good to go now.
I also got the Casey/Foot and Leatherhead/Slash sets from a guy in a Facebook group I'm in, which was a huge assist. I got Metalhead pre-ordered from NECA, which means the only thing not locked in is the April/Foot set.
I'm waiting to see an email from Big Bad saying my Super 7 Raphael is shipped. The people who ordered direct from Super 7 are getting theirs, so I imagine it'd be within this next few weeks that I'll see mine. I hope, at least.

A week ago my friend sent me a link to the musical mutagen figures. Now I have that set plus the four movie turtles on the way. I almost want to be mad at him for it but the figures look awesome. I just wish the musical mutagen figures came with sweatshirts around their waist.

If anyone comes across a super shreddeer in store and can grab it for me I'll pay extra for your troubles. Just not Triple retail otherwise I'll just do Ebay

Watched TMNT III. It’s not as bad as I remembered but still not at all good. Watching it tho made me think that the turtles from this movie in the samurai armor would make a good SDCC exclusive. It would be in the same vein as the concert figures. Something nobody liked at the time but if they made em into figures today everyone would want.

My ONLY suggestion is perhaps an image of April O'Neil reporting from Channel 6 News on the TV.

My girlfriend and I had a few drinks and started watching the 'Coming out of our Shells' tour on youtube... it is something else to say the least. I don't think we'll ever be able to un-hear 'Skipping Stones'. I have vague memories of it as a kid, so when I bought the box set it was more out of it being unique and weird looking than any sort of nostalgia I had. After watching a little bit of the show and finding a spot for the figures, I opened the SDCC set. My biggest takeaway from watching the show & opening the figures is that NECA didn't include the shirts around the waist of each turtle or the armbands with their initials! Surprised they missed that detail. I realized I had Donatello's instrument the wrong way after I took the pic.
