SO I just started getting into these late in the game, I picked up a few packs very recently on ebay. I like the cartoon target ones better than the movie walmart ones, although those are pretty cool too.
I was thinking it would be cool if anyone else was interested, we could start a thread on here (this thread?) to talk about this stuff, share info like when new stuff is coming out, maybe do some trades etc... you know that kind of stuff and maybe help each other out. So anyone interested in these?

I like TMNT, and I picked up the GameStop exclusive retro 4 pack about a year ago. But I stopped. I'm just collecting too many toy lines and getting a bit overwhelmed, lol.
Are you talking about the NECA stuff? I've seen it online (not in stores, unfortunately), and it does look cool. But I can't start another line.

Yeah I'm talking about the NECA cartoon versions that are exclusives at Target. The are just as impossible to find at retail as retro Joes. And they are super expensive on the 2nd market.

I looked at them, but I'm already frustrated enough trying to find Joe products at retail to start in with anotjer line that's ompossible to collect. They look pretty cool though.

I got a few extras for trade for other figures I don't have. Hoping someone on here is in the same boat.

Strangely enough I have stumbled on quite a few of the NECA sets even though I don’t collect them. I have seen the Casey set, Slash, April and Krang.

I've had no trouble finding them when they first get into the stores as they have several per box on initial release. They do look good but $52+tax for a 2-pack and $35 for a single made me think twice about starting on another line though. That and I missed out on the early wave cartoon turtles. Just noticed them on the bebop/rocksteady release back in 2019.

Have you seen the April and Casey sets recently or awhile back? And was Krang in the 2 pack with Shredder or the single figure box with him in his android body? If it was the android body, do you remember how much he was? I've only seen him on ebay and have no idea what the original retail price is to even compare for whats a decent deal on ebay. That android body krang is one I still really need for my collection.

I’m into them!
I have the second style of the toon Turtles, the brighter green ones that match the style guide for the late 80s and early merchandise. I also have Shredder, and want April, even though the production head is less well done than the proto. Someday I’d like to add a couple foot soldiers too, but realistically, just getting April would stretch my budget a lot right now. I did see someone on this forum post that they expect Neca to do preorders on their online store for April and some others soon. I am no expert, but I think they offered a made-to-order run for a couple of other sets last year for the first time, with more expected. I hope that is true, and maybe a new trend to replace this BS of rare Target figures for Joe too, but I’m just repeating what I read, and really, idk for sure. |
