The New Ninja Turtles are HERE!

As information begins to flow out of that mecca that is San Diago for the 2012 Comic Con other things are beginning to flow onto store shelves.

We first Heard Rumblings of a new Ninja Turtle line last year at comic con at a secret presentation where no pictures were allowed to be taken.  Then we got to see them at Toy Fair this year.  Actually they were probably the most talked about property at that show!

They are supposed to hit in August but Some Toys R Us stores are already putting them out. . . the store in Chattanooga is one of those stores, so I jumped out and picked a few out last night.  I have to say this is the first time since I was a kid that I just want to rip into this thing.  It is fantastic and I feel much worth the wait.  I have not been a huge fan for a while but this might make me come back to the fold.  these toys are fantastic and I think Playmates may have just came back into the toy fold with this line.

For now I only share this one pic with you but I will have more info on these figures in the upcoming days!

  1. Awesome! I can't wait to get these as well as the TMNT Classic action figures. It's a good summer to be a Turtle fan!

    1. Yes it is! They really are fantasitc. They look incredible. I havn't had a chance to rip them open yet, because I want to do a video. But from what I have been reading they are a very sturdy figure!

  2. Ugh! None of the stupid ToysRUs stores in my area have these yet. I've been stalking them by phone. I'm super jealous!

    1. Yes a friend near me told me that his TRU got them in so I decided to go to the nearest one near me and see if they had them in. I was shocked that they did and the Chattanooga store is usually the last to get anything! But I have heard they are really rolling out in the next few days and over the weekend so maybe the ones near you will get them soon!

  3. Lucky dog! Yeah, my trus are super slow too in pa. I saw them on preorder on the webite, that turtle van looks amazing. Crossing my fingers for a foot cruiser. You think for this retailer to have so many exclusives (star wars, minimates) they'd keep more stuff stocked.

  4. Am heading over to TRU and see if they got any in and figure out if i can budget in one or two of these this week or not. My plan is to get all 4 Turtles at some point.

    1. To be at TRU they have a decent price point at 8.99 that makes me think they will have an even better price at stores like Target and wal-mart when they start showing up!
