Target on the other hand has been a total shit show. I don't know why they can't figure out a way to do online ordering for them, in store is horrible.

Lucky you, they destroyed my account after the site migration, for some reason also blocked my residential addresses and when you try to contact their shitty customer service, no one knows how to fix it or who can do it. It is as if their whole system lives in limbo.

I do love the new bandana, but I can’t buy these again. Already own SDCC and Gamestop sets and 4 of Raphael!
Probably good they are rereleasing them though, but I don’t know why people still can’t get these. There must have been at least a couple preorders through Gamestop, then they actually had them in stock for quite a while. Plus Think Geek sold them. They are even available in other countries now. Anyone who misses them this time just isn’t trying.
Hoping to see some new characters in these new sets, maybe in this wave?!

All I want is Casey and I'm good.

Hopefully we get a few new accessories and not just these alternate bandanas. For example, I'd like to see them downscale those 1/4 scale baby turtles they did and include those with a TCRI cannister.

I'd go for that. In fact, give me anything in samurai gear and I'm sold.

Speaking for myself, I had to ask a friend in the US to help get them. I have never seen them in the wild here in Québec. EBGames (that's our Gamestop) had them in pre-order but they sold out so fast I have to wonder if they ordered one of each instead of full cases.

So yeah, these pieces of plastic art are still very difficult to get. NECA's distribution is terrible unfortunately, just like Hasbro's. I'm really glad there are fellow collectors around the globe to help out because some of my most prized figures - these Turtles included - I could not have gotten otherwise.
