You know, and I always take this store for granted... Always thought much more of them existed.

Huh I never knew these existed, I probably would have checked it out, too bad Hasbro doesn't have one :P Or do they...

Passed up the legends 3pack at target. They only had one left and the paint apps was horrible in Ms Marvel.

Have they always been that expensive? I have only just this year gotten back into Star Wars.

[Bradsdadg]

The Star Wars one is $10 more then the Lego City version. It does come with more pieces though. But not enough to justify the cost, imo

[Frank Richards]

These might be worthwhile for MoC collectors, but they were an easy pass for me.
They're the same TMNT comic figures from the basic line, but for an additional $6, they come with a comic.

Frankly, it seems to me that most of us who actually want these figures most likely already own the comics that these two come with, so I don't predict many collectors will be picking these up, especially for an additional $6.
However, hopefully, they'll introduce some younger fans to the awesome TMNT comics !

[snake5289]

Is it just those two or do Raph and Donnie get comics also?

[Frank Richards]

^ I only saw those two, and if I remember correctly, at this year's SDCC, I think Playmates only released pics of Mikey and Leo.
Seems odd to me that they'd only do two of the turtles, so maybe Playmates will eventually release comic packs of Raph and Donnie as well.

EDIT:
I found a link to the pic posted here on ToyArk, and yep, only Mikey and Leo are pictured:

Those are the TRU versions right?? I have to think they will do the other 2 turtles as well at some point. The reprint comics are the original one-shots (known also as a micro-series) that were done back in the Mirage days. I am kind of curious if people know how not kid friendly the original Turtles were. They were super violent and even swore.

Probably just in places they already have other facilities. I remember last year when the Ghostbusters stuff was like $5 but no one here lived near one to pick stuff up.

[Snowflakian]

Saw the GOTG Marvel inifinite wave at Target today. They had Ionic wonderman and Deaths head too, but I passed on all of them since all I'm looking for is Red She-Hulk, Cyclops, and Ant-man for now.

Was glad to see they restocked though. Was starting to wonder. Mostly went looking to see if Wind blade, Arcee and Chromia had shown up yet.

[Phantomcrow]

Saw most of the GOT series 2 figures today at TRU. Drogo seems small cause he is not covered in armor or fur. I have to say the face on Jamie is about perfect.









Also first time seeing Wario in the World of Nintendo line. Looks like Yoshi is gone and Link was repacked.



And this TRU exclusive beast. The Halo Scarab set. $250, I think it is the most expensive Halo Megabloks set I have seen. But at 15 inches by 19 inches it would be an impressive piece.



Also saw the new Assassins Creed wave.

My God. Xanadu does exist.

[bigkid24]

I haven't seen a Mattel store that stocked in ages. The stores in LA are picked over by resellers.

Found a Marvel Infinite Wasp and Marvel Mashers Deadpool while hunting in Atlanta but decided against buying them.

Regarding those comic packs did all the turtles have 1 shot comics back in the day? For some reason I didn't think they did.

[PROVOST]

[En Sabah Nerd]

I forgot to snap some pictures, but checked out a TRU further out of my way and they had a lot of new NECA stuff. Clean Knifehead (I actually prefer the bloodied version), Axehead, Ultimate Freddy Krueger, NES Batman, and a bunch of their Mego figures. I would've picked up Freddy but I already ordered him online. This kind of surprised me because my local TRU barely has anything in its adult collectibles area, and then the one I can't really check on that much has all the goodies mine doesn't.

[Bradsdadg]

Was in TRU today, saw about 5 of the NECA video game Batman figures $25 each. Also finally saw the Universal Monsters ReAction figs in person. I wish they made the card backs a little sturdier, they are all bent way out of shape~and really with figs like those they look better in package I think...

NICE!

which DCUC did they have?

[Phantomcrow]

With them on sale this week for 5$ off, Walgreens seems to have plenty of Proto Boba.



Also Gordman's had a WHOLE LOT of those wood comic art pieces. A bunch of new covers and even X-mas ones.

[Phantomcrow]

Saw a bunch of TMNT Bebop and Rocksteady at a couple Wal-Marts the past couple days. Like 4 or so of each.

[Bradsdadg]

^ nice. I ended up ordering mine off Walmart.com and just doing site to store pick up option. Worried that I wouldn't find them otherwise

[Barefootabe]

those superman /batman xmas signs are sweeeet

[Phantomcrow]

Saw a whole lot of the new Monster High dolls. The Haunted line, Gloom and Bloom, and Freaky Field Trip. I may get the River Stix girl and the Ghost Pirate but in no hurry.













Also saw a hand full of new Lego sets.
