Lol. I'd already forgotten about these things. Sideshow has had them up for a while now. With HT AoU Hulk shipping soon and Hulkbuster sometime after that, I'll have all the mean green power I need.

I actually just picked up the First Gokin Krang. They just announced a Shredder. Seems a bit stylized, maybe too much. We'll see.

I am so excited for this! I hate that Raph comes last so it will be a looong time before he's released but when he arrives, oh it will be awesome. Can't wait!!!

I hope they make a Casey Jones. I would buy that in a heartbeat.

Leo delayed until Sept-Oct. There's only a couple of QC issues that need to be resolved.

I can't wait for these. I'm doubling up on each turtle: one for moc, one for display.

Btw, anyone that wants to sell their exclusive Turtles to me, feel free to pm. I'll pay immediately.

Just a quick update, my Leonardo arrived in the mail yesterday. The figure looks nice and displays really well. The articulation is pretty similar to NECA's Mirage TMNT figures but there are a few differences such as rocker ankles. I have him posed in a wide stance right now and he seems pretty stable. The swords also feel very sturdy so hopefully they won't warp over time.

I did have a couple of QC issues such as stuck joints and the swords not wanting to go into the scabbards. Fortunately, a hair dryer took care of these problems although the scabbards are still a little snug for my taste. I haven't seen any paint wearing off of the blades but I doubt I'll using them very much. While I was trying to change out one of the hands, the bicep actually popped off of the peg on the shoulder. I was able to plug the bicep back on but I thought I had broke it there for a moment.

Nice to hear actual news about this... It's been ages!

Still sad I can't afford these, but even if I COULD afford high priced Turtles it wouldn't be these ones.

I really need to win that lotto.

Honestly if I hadn't preordered Leonardo through Mondo, I would have canceled my preorder and saved my money for the NECA 1/4 scale turtles. I was originally planning on turning around and selling Leo on eBay to get my money back, but my curiosity got the better of me so I opened him. Leo isn't a bad figure by any means and I'll display him in my collection, but I don't think he's worth $150 and certainly won't be getting the other three turtles.
