BBTS has them up for sale now, and as expected, the prices are ludicrous.

Because there's a couple hundred people on the planet who want all of these guys. NECA wouldn't even make monsters other than Godzilla for years and only for the Legendary movies, I would bet they were forced by their license to make them.

The prices are pretty much what they should be. NECA figures that are sold in every Target in the US are $35-40; BBTS list the Sesame Street Count at $42. $25 more for characters I don't think I'd ever see in figure form isn't a bad deal.

Because I guess NECA isn't willing to pay the licensing fees for the actor's likenesses for extremely niche figures. They'd rather spend that money making super-obscure TMNT characters that showed up in some random comic from 10 years ago.

It's cheaper than buying them directly from JFS, where they are WELL over $100 per figure with shipping and tariffs included. BBTS is WAY more affordable.

$66 a figure isn't so bad for what they are - probably the only figures we're ever getting of this crew.
