New Official TMNT Metal Head and Raphael vs Casey Jones 2-Pack Images

[manic mailman]

i cant wait to buy that casey jones set on ebay for $135

[Joe Moore]

I still haven't seen Bebop and Rocksteady once. My closest Target had basically stopped stocking toys for now. If I never find that set, then I'll probably just sell off my other Target 2-packs.

[urrutiap]

I still have the old Metalhead figure where it has a nunchuck hand weapon thing thats still better than a stupid vacuum cleander attachment.

Seriously?? a vacuum cleaner for a hand/weapon?

[Boy Blunder]

Well, someone either A) never watched the cartoon, or B) has no sense of fun and whimsey

[Comedian]

Nope. Sorry. Not playing the game neca. Go direct, or online only. I’m sticking with super7 where I don’t have to waste my time.....and now health trying to find the one set a store may get. Every other toy company is doing fan channel or direct preorders/ subscriptions or Kickstarter. Get with it neca.

Edit.
I still have not found the rocksteady and bebop set at target and my Walmart has closed their electronics section. I am close to just selling my first neca cartoon figures as well.

[dukefett]

Metalhead looks great. Target does some other toys for preorder, why the hell can't they figure it out for their NECA stuff? I get they're stocked themselves or whatever, but figure it out man. Especially since it's pandemic time, nobody should be doing toy runs. Just ship it.

[OriginalFire]

They should just do what Super7 does and just order online and make to order. Everybody, gets their figures and as many copies as they want

Why set the bar so low, lol, why not aim for 300, It's true. It is kinda fun to go out and buy stuff at retail sometimes but this TMNT stuff is just a mess and if NECA does what Super7 does with online stuff then they won't have to bother with the Playmates stuff. Now people are so frustrated they just wanna sell their stuff off. Jay C said in one of his recent videos that more Rocksteady and Bepop figures are coming and COVID 19 is holding them up. I understand the frustration, who wants to make tons of trips to the store for nothing, and everything ends up on E-Bay forbjacked up prices. How can a toyline survive. We will see if it will.

It feels weird to see those comments after years of NECA TMNT figures being such a pain in the ass to get for us not located in the US.
All the figures are literally available everywhere online here... Just secured these two.
Not trying to pour salt in the wounds of course, I know the pain. Good luck hunting.

Where r u from

[RicksNerdLife]

Y'all...come on now.

Always so eager to whine, and always gotta find something to complain about, and never willing to put in just the miniscule amount of work.

These are literally available to preorder right now on Robot Kingdom. For retail. You might have to pay a little more for shipping, and you might have to wait a little, but you're still guaranteed to get them and not pay eBay prices.

[captainN]

I love the look of Metal Head. I want just him.

I’m in the United States. No online for us. I’m past the point in my life of running to stores like this is the 90’s, it’s not. Neca better pay attention, because those complaining are hardcore neca collectors like myself. The world just changed, and real fast. Super7 is giving me what I want. Mcfarlane toys is giving me what I want. Hasbro is giving me what I want. Neca is showing me what I want and telling me to go find it....somewhere....maybe eBay. When ordering from Europe is easier than finding it at target....then someone failed. And it ain’t me.

I don’t care how cool the toy is, if I have to stress over getting it, then it’s not fun. If it’s not fun, it’s not a toy...you see where I’m going.

I am totally down with waiting for neca to re-evaluate their models and catch up to the rest of us in 2020. In the mean time, my money goes elsewhere.

Shame Randy from Neca believes its all in the hunt and takes any frustrated collectors who can't find these damn things anywhere is considered complaining. Also whoever chose Walmart as the home for the movie figures that's almost as bad as Gamestop. Walmart has a history of not having exclusive figures in stock half the time. just ask Marvel Legends collectors.

So true... feels really bad actually, I want everyone to have it as easy as us.

These figures, and all of the other Turtles stuff for that matter, are being carried by most online retailers around here. If it carries normal NECA-stuff it also carries their Turtles figures.

That's the way it should be around the whole world - stupid licensing crap.

For a figure that’s twice the size, three times the accessories and blends with masters of the universe classics, toxic crusaders classics, and thundercats classics. $45, free shipping from bbts compared to the $26-32 a figure from neca plus running from store to store, calling stores dealing with eBay scalpers fighting the online disaster that is their convention exclusives? Yeah, dude. I’m good with super7.

Like I said already. It’s not the money. It’s access. I don’t care that neca is $15 cheaper( they should be, they are half the size).I have no access to neca turtles anymore.

I’m not alone, but go ahead and talk down to the customers keeping neca going. That helps.

[JerpJerp]

I stayed cool for a long time now..always keeping faith in Neca..the second I saw these pictures I thought “no way will I find them” that’s when I knew how much collecting these will always suck. I realize now how horrible collecting this line is....

I still haven’t found bebop and rock in LA. Neca keeps promising over and over it will be there so I keep calling and going to target over and over like an ASSHOLE. I SERIOUSLY FEEL LIKE THE BIGGEST TOOL. Not cool.

All they are doing is selling the majority of product to scalpers, pissing people off, and they don’t make a dime off the secondary market. It’s so stupid!
Instead of having money to keep buying the toys, normal people will spend all there money on a few of the eBay figures, then they have NO MORE MONEY TO KEEP COLLECTING THE FIGURES! The cheap toys are costing more than they should because of this horrible target system.

This line is no fun anymore.

Cheers to Super7!!!

Of course I’m going to try to keep collecting for awhile...the toys will always be tarnished with the memories of frustration. If I can only buy on eBay I won’t have the money to collect many of them. But I have to try for a few right? It’s cartoon turtles....ugh.

What the fuck target? The system is so flawed. Scalpers are going to target and getting hooked up by their friends that work there. They buy all the merch to sell on eBay. People aren’t going to the store to get one, and the browse and buy other products like YOU THINK. They spend all their money investing in the figures, make all the money target and neca should get, it goes in their bank account and it’s all a big loss for everyone except the scalpers and their target buddies.

True fans are screwed.

Ugh. See? Another 30 mins wasted writing this because of this shit....

I sold mine. The only way to buy these things is on Ebay, so I'm out.

Already sold out on that site.

I've never heard of Robotkingdom...I looked it up and someone said in a forum it is a China based company.

I tried clicking the 'about us' section on their site and it kept taking me back to the home page. Not a single piece of information about the location, or, proper contact information.

Every other link worked on the site...shady.

WHY WOULD THEY BE THE ONLY ONE WITH A PRE-ORDER???? HMMMMMMM....

[Zeorn]

If you're an American and buy them from some foreign site you're paying for them to ship it to to that country and then back to the U.S. They'll be at least 3 times the price to start compared to if you could find them in a store.

I say that but I've been ridiculously lucky and gotten all of them I've wanted. Found the whole second wave easily and then bought Shredder & Krang pack on Target's site. In fact there were 4 Bebop and Rocksteady packs when I got mine.

Got all the movie ones off Gamestop's site.

I get that some of you get frustrated, but damn! You guys haven’t even given the NECA Walmart partnership a chance. People saying Super7 is a better deal doesn’t make any sense. They cost twice the price! Not to mention that It’ll probably be 2022 before you have a full set of Super7 turtles. People don’t want to pay scalpers, but you’ll pay a company the same price for 1 figure?
I agree about Target, and the stock situation is a crap shoot. However, they had improvements lined up and then Covid-19 hit. Even now I have seen people find B&R.
Anytime you get irritated about NECA TMNT, flashback to 2015 and before when we had next to nothing! Playmates crap and overpriced “collector” figures. I love TMNT, but (truthfully) I gave up on collecting any TMNT figures, then NECA came along. They originally made Mirage, but years later we have 1990, toon, arcade, turtles in time, and soon Secret of the Ooze. Nobody else has even come close to doing that!
Fact is, the license restrictions suck for TMNT. You have to understand that..once you do, you won’t be complaining so much. You’ll just be thankful they were made at all.

Maybe because we saw the possibilities of a NECA/Wal-Mart partnership back when they had boxed Robocop and Endoskeletons for sale... Oh, sorry, I mean when they were SUPPOSED to have them for sale, and none of the 10 stores I checked had ANY. Wal-Mart has a horrible track record here, so forgive us for being skeptical!
