I only see them on eBay. Never in stores. I bought Tiger Claw & 2 Robotic.

Didn't realize they were supposed to be rolling into stores yet.

Those prices? Yeah no I'll wait.

When it comes to the new TMNT stuffs...patience my friends. Playmates is actually really good with their distributions, and if you're diligent and willing to wait a month or two, you will start to see them on a regular basis. All of the figures that went for huge sums on Ebay when they initially released (Leatherhead, Casey Jones, Shredder 2.0, Mousers) can be found just about anywhere now a days. Whatever their distribution secret is...I'd wish they'd share it with Hasbro.

The line is thriving with no signs of slowing down, so be patient, and don't feed the scalpers unless you absolutely have to have those figures first...

Can't wait for a tigerclaw just got into collecting the turtles with my daughter we each get the same figs eventually. Just whatever one chooses

Haven't found them yet. They are in some parts of the country, so it should be in a couple weeks or so that everyone sees them. Like Trivial said, try and wait until you find them in stores, it will save you $$. Also, sometimes you can grab them online at regular prices, if you check often enough and grab them before they sell out online. (non ebay)

No luck in reading PA for me. I expected TRU to restock the TMNT line after the big sale they had but the shelves remain empty for the entire week. I wish I had more stores to look. Went to 7 stores last night and bought nothing.

I started collecting turtles for my kids a few months ago, I was extremely pleased to find literally every figure in one trip to TRU, Target, and Wal-Mart including slash, when he first came out. Playmates is on the ball for distro like no other. you'll find anything turtles within a few weeks of street date.

I've been to all the stores, no luck. I ended up buying them on eBay .i got 2 Tiger Claws and 3 robotic foot soldiers. From what I heard is employees at these stores are buying them and selling online.

I spotted Tiger Claw, as well as the comic figures, today :

Yeah, when it comes to the basic line, Playmates really does have great distribution.
I've never had a problem finding any of the current TMNT figures. The most annoying to find was the newer version of Shredder. He took a while to get to my area, but now, he's available at nearly every Wal-Mart, Walgreens, etc... around here.

Found two tiger claws this morning along with 1 robotic footsoldier and three of the mirage turtles

[chaosorc]

what store did you find them in?

To prove I'm not crazy about Playmates distribution, and being patient in not feeding the Ebay scalpers...here's Tiger Claw with the Mirage turtles. Found them at Target and TRU tonight. I also ran into the robot foot soldier as well, but opted to pass on him for now. Getting the Mirage turtles and Tiger Claw were the top priority.

Those of you thinking of dropping a large chunk of change on the newer turtles, unless they are the classics figs (6 inch movie and cartoon turtles, etc.) be patient. If you're willing to wait a month or two, and look around, you will find them. There's no sense in feeding an Ebay seller or online toy store 4 or 5 times the retail value for these things. Playmates has got your back...Hasbro could really learn a thing or two from them (looking at you Star Wars Black!!!)
