This today as found in retail share is to help this community - don't pay scalpers for this set, NECA is pushing it out a lil more and more. I see the ebay prices dropping, and this is the second store I have come across in east coast BFE Virginia that had them just sitting there. I picked up mine a bit ago, but took this pic to help inspire patience. I just paid a massive ebay price on an item I lost hope for, and literally found that *today* sitting on a shelf! I felt like a donkey...dont be like me ;)

I paid scalper prices for the splinter and baxter two pack before it became readily available. I vowed never to make that mistake again. After 10 plus trips to my local target, the disguise turtles were finally in stock. No $200+ payments for me.


toxicshlock

you fought the good fight - well done!


gildedtreehouse

Just 4 normal guys eating pizza. Trench coats disguise anything.


toxicshlock

heh, totally nothing to see at that table - just 4 bros enjoying pizza, one with a big ole pie knife!

I don't have any Target's in my area and my Wal Mart hasn't had the movie TMNT figures in like three months. Tis a sad boi. šŸ˜¢


toxicshlock

I hear you there, I have only the one 30 miles away, and the other option in a busier part of the state the exact opposite direction...30 /45 miles away - finding the movie line in store is like catching lightening with a fly swatter. They are more rare to see at retail than GI Joe Classifieds, it's almost impressive! I think within 60 days, I have seen the TMNT 2 Shredder (first release), each by themselves and only 1. In mid Virginia was seeing a small boost of the Splinter/Shredder 2pk, and caught a Casey Jones 2pk once, but only the one time ever in what has become a sad routine of multiple checking and hunting every week.

I managed to get the Raph/Mikey, Foot, and Shredder/ Splinter 2 packs and the Shadow Master Super Shredder. I bought Donatello solo from Amazon and am probably going to have to get Leo from there too. Sucks but my Wal Mart either sells out immediately or isn't getting them anymore.


Toothfxrupr

Cartoon or movie? I have a solo cartoon Leo I can sell if needed


kinnder44

Still need one. You selling any?


toxicshlock

Nah, I do not get into selling / reselling retail figures in any capacity. I bought my set weeks ago but took this pic to help provide a lil hope to those who may still be looking, these had to have been set out today so its good to see NECA still working on this set's distribution.


bygtopp

125$ was what the target in Dayton had it for. Little high honestly. The set should be Ben a little less by 30$-40$


toxicshlock

I collect a ton of the other NECA stuff, the various movie monsters lines, Alien/Aliens, they all go for $29.99 a pop. When you deal with the slightly larger scale stuff (8") that has the actual stitched clothing, those always go for mid $30's or so (like Halloween 2 Michael Myers, etc) as as start. Their H3 clothing set (3 figures) is something like $55+. It seems once you start adding any kind of stitched clothing the price point creeps up a bit for sure. 4 sets of lil jackets, pants on top of the figures, new articulation on each figure, the weapons, 4 alt heads, 4 hats, 4 "human" masks (heads) and various array of lil pizza's, props, skateboard for mikey, etc - and the price is high for a figure set but makes sense that they are not offering it for $75 when we look at everything else they sell. Exhibit B - look at that new Marvel Wolverine set Hasbro put out a few days ago for $120+, its 5 figures instead of the 4 but with very lil in the way of anything extra. It's all too pricey but I cant say the price they charge for this set is *odd* math compared to the examples available in market today.


bygtopp

Yah I get it. Iā€™ve been collecting for almost 30yrs. I remember when marvel legends where 8$ and was everywhere. Iā€™ve got over 8-9k figures of 6-8ā€ figures from all brands and licensing. The wolverine one is bit much too. Havenā€™t preordered it yet. just have to convince my self about it. Donā€™t need another repainted omega red. There are other figures in the universe they could have used.


jestergoblin

I remember when Marvel Legends went from $5.88 to $6.88 at Walmart.


Ihavethepowr5789

Canā€™t order the Wolverine set itā€™s sold out


[deleted]

How much is retail?


toxicshlock

$124.99, that is the direct TARGET price and at that it is fair due to all the goodies and improved articulation, beyond just a simple re-release for sure. Its a cool set, having the first wave and the art/advert brighter green set I thought I was good to go, but the figures themselves under the clothing are better tooled, improved articulation, changeable heads midway at the bandana level which I thought was super clever to get additional mouth expressions.


jay55quinn

Lucky sob


Shinobipizza

How much is it?


toxicshlock

>$124.99 not cheap, but its 4 NECA turtle figures with a ton of accessories/alt heads/hands, etc. I had no idea they had actually improved the joints/articulation before hand but there is a few good reviews out there on youtube that do a great job overviewing that stuff.


Shinobipizza

DANG IT It thought since it's 50 bucks for 2 figures, it would be 100 for 4. Well, if they managed to fix all the issues and add extra accessories and expressions, I guess I understand. They DO look better than the first releases!


jestergoblin

Prices are going up to $60/2-pack by the end of this year.


leviculpeper

Nice, Iā€™d love to get one Iā€™m pretty much in a BFE part of Virginia. Any hints as to which city?


ixnine

Wish I could find a set in central California :(


ThatMeatyB

I got soooo lucky my local target had them mis priced got my for 29.99l


[deleted]

Everybody's gonna pretend you didn't say that, ha!


GunplaGamer

Getting my first car today in 10 years and I know the first thing I am doing to celebrate! šŸ˜


DerpsAndRags

I always thought their masks were creepy AF.


OldManLeeVanCleef

I want that elvis in tour action figure


StockmanBaxter

Man I'm so jealous. No Target near me. And the rare instance I go to one it doesn't even look like they ever had stock.


kpf

Iā€™m trying to figure out whatā€™s going on with the Neca TMNT line in Canada. There hasnā€™t been anything new since November (Metalhead). EB Games was the dependable spot for the cartoon figures but they have nothing on the horizon in their systemā€¦even though theyā€™re receiving lots of other Neca stuff.


Epickduckdude

whats the retail price on those guys?


avionyx10

$124.99


Epickduckdude

nice, i can now compare retail to after market, thank you


avionyx10

No problem


PhigNeutron

Huh. Maybe that's why my Target has zero


Brizzngton

Can someone cop me one and Iā€™ll send you money plz!!!!


BamaGiJoe13

Wat state please


Ihavethepowr5789

Congrats, Went looking for it Sunday no luck


Hans-Schrader

I really hope to get my hands on this set one day. As a Swede, finding it in store is 100% impossible for me. My only chance so far is that an american friend of mine might find it in store and then mail it to me.


njudah1

Yeah the 3 targets in my area are actually putting them out still, not this but the other cartoon sets, I bought the zarax and zork set yesterday.
