MONDO - 1/6 Comic Style TMNT Figures

[chaosMonkeyPoo]

At this point I'm starting to wonder if the DreamX guys release all 4 Turtles before Mondo does.
They haven't even come up for pre-order yet but the time between when Casey & Shredder were first shown and released was a pretty short window.

 

[Shawpaw]

NECA and DE will have their entire line out before Mondo. Maybe we get a surprise by Leo getting shipped in two weeks but I'm confident we are looking at Q1 in January 2017.

Just got an email for Raphael, pushed back to jan-feb. I may cancel these and wait for the dreamex turtles to release. Although I like the original turtles the most, the dreamex look really really good. I would rather see them all with red bandanna but they look like they are much better quality than the mondo.

 

[Tmnt1212]

And here comes the emails for the rest. I have a feeling jan-feb is just another bump. I doubt we will see anything until Q2 2017.

Creeping ever closer to December...

Yup

Huh, no email from mondo for me yet.

 

[Aliaz]

Maybe those emails are from Sideshow?

 

[Sweet Rabbit]

I haven't received anything from Mondo

 

[Tmnt1212]

The emails were from sideshow

 

[Zodach]

I did get an e-mail from Sideshow saying that even the Mousers were pushed back to January or February. I thought Brock mentioned that these were close to being done a month or two ago. Anyways, after checking out the Technodrome forums it looks like AFI posted a response from Brock on November 13 about the status of Leonardo:

So I reached out to Brock at Mondo to see when we could expect our favorite Turtle Team leader. The answer came back:

“At this point, it’s in the hands of the sea (and ship, and ports, and customs). Leo was scheduled to come in this month, but we might be off by a week or two because of the those elements. It’s the holiday season, and the ports are full of boats! Good news is though- he’s on his way! Everybody has been so cool and patient, and we’re aiming to make it a shell of a holiday!”

 

[Aliaz]

Well Brock has stated that Leo is on the boat about a week ago. I don't know how much more he can say at this point. Atleast we know he had been produced, packaged and he is on his way to Mondo.

SS delay emails are to be expected if Mondo have not begun shipping this yet. They have to wait until they arrive at Mondo HQ and then ship them to SS after all.

 

[Shawpaw]

With all of the holiday orders coming into port, I'm not so sure we get these guys by the holidays. I could be wrong, but Mondo would have to work extra hard to distribute these out and also ship the orders in a timely fashion (given the cost of shipping was insanely high).

 

[Tmnt1212]

How much was shipping? SSC doesn't have a shipping estimate yet. Hopefully not too bad since I'm ordering within the US.

 

[Aliaz]

Shipping to Sweden was a punch in the face... no wait, I mean about $55/turtle.

Oh...same thing.

Yuck, bro. that's absurd. They charged me $17.68 to ship 250 miles....

 

[Scareb]

I just want my turtles in my life.

I wish we had a turtle emoji on this website! That would at least be something lol

Seriously though, it's been since mid 2015 since we've ordered these.

I think mine was $20 something

 

[Shawpaw]

Ridiculous. Hopefully Brock makes good on changing the shipping costs at some point

 

[Aliaz]

Atleast their new shipping charges are more humane.
