TMNT (teenage mutant ninja turtles)

[KingGrayskull]

Guys, I am desperately looking fir a set. Anybody able and willing to help a fellow Freak from Europe? Its really a pain to get these here.

Its really a pain to get these here.

ebay?
resellers add only $100-300 to original price

i managed to purchase one for $320 including shipping, just hope the seller doesn't refuse to ship and refund.

I'm really debating getting a set sent from eBay, is it really worth the money it'll cost to get it here?

anyway i check ebay on Ninja Turtles SDCC, lots of Game version coming from Hong Kong & China, knowing they are only Exclusives in US, those are probably fakes.

but seeing there isn't really any other way to get it, many folks probably bought it.

just wondering hows the quality. i know the comic TMNT were pretty difficult to spot, you need to know in details to be able to spot them. The Mattel Classics were easy to spot though.

From what I heard the fakes of the arcade set are nearly identical to the official arcade sets.

But are they really fakes as they could just be excess stock or rejects. The figures are made in China and some of the NECA figures that make it to retail look like fakes due to the bad quality control. I think the best way to get this new set is to wait for the inevitable cheap ones from China rather than pay the ridiculous current ebay prices.

I can tell you for a fact that those aren't fakes.
COnsidered that my China set got shipped out around the same time as SDCC. It means it's too short of a time to counterfeit the figures and print the packaging.
So it's most likely leaked factory stock that NECA kept a closed eye.

Some sets were floating around for pre-order during last year's SDCC so those will be really close in terms of quality with the Con release.
Anything after that I'm not too sure about the quality.
I didn't care much but was happy with the overall quality with my Chinese version. The packaging looks good.

No. We will see lots of tmnt products in the next years, this is only the begining. Everybody will have what they want. If you really want this set, just wait 4 months and the price will be 250$ shipped to you.

Mine set is coming today!

Update: got my set in!

My set is still sitting in California. Got a shipping notice on the 11th, and it hasn't moved since then. Getting pretty impatient...

 

[franpincho]

Mine is set to be delivered tomorrow, but won’t be able to pick it up until Friday.

I think they just printed the shipping labels, but nothing has been dropped off at UPS....so its all hype

 

[Jedha Patrol]

I have an extra set of the SDCC Turtles coming my way if anyone is interested..CONUS only please

 

[youngbloodsc]

I mean, why send out shipping notices if you aren't planning to actually ship it until the next week?

Mine actually changed cities, it is moving!

 

[Raven6009]

My Turtles departed CA early Friday morning, but the other items I ordered at the same time shipped out Saturday morning.

How much did you have to pay? Intrigued as I have a set on the way to a box forwarder so no idea how much I will need to pay in shipping yet

 

[Rtec1]

Worked out at £300 with customs, wouldn't have paid that much but I sold off a couple of Hot Toys recently and used that so not really costing me!
