I can assure you it's not I. I haven't found them yet.
Though I found out this morning that they're being stocked with preschool toys, and not the action figures.
The more and more I'm seeing, the more impressed I am with this line. Not only do the four turtles have their own colors, they're all individual molds, with different heights and proportions.
Don is tall and lanky, Mikie is the shortest (Which really makes him feel like he's the "youngest", and not the least mature like past incarnations), Leo is the most balances, and Raph is slightly bulkier.

I'm surprised Donatello has a closed mouth. Perhaps he's hiding his gap tooth.  |

Wave two, which has Metalhead (YAY!), Fishface, and Dogpound have apparently been found in Washington state. So let the eternal wait for the tickledown to start!

I remember Mummy Raph being pretty cool. I have Dracula Don somewhere.

I may get a set of these down the line if Playmates ever fix the lazy eye on Donatello.
Then again Classics Mikey on his own would suffice enough for me.

Snakeweek came out looking neat.
While I'm not a fan of action gimmicks, I like their sense of humor in the sculpting choices, which was largely missing in the previous 2000 TMNT line.

I think stateside, TMNT is going to be *the* toyline to beat this holiday season.
I went out late last week to TRU, Target, and Walmart and all stores had their TMNT sections full. Full of fresh new wave two figures, full of vehicles, and even that massive playset I want so badly.
I went to TRU and Walmart yesterday (No need to go to Target), and both stores were completely wiped out. At TRU, the only reason it didn't look like the display was pulled is because there was one shellraiser that had been opened, and two roleplay weapons sets. Everything else... gone. Walmart was almost the same way.
Talked to a friend across the state from me, and he said it's a virtually identical scene at his TRU.
I think here, TMNT is going to be hard to find for a while.

The new series TMNT figures are now appearing in shops. They do look rather good and well articulated. The Classics ones look especially excellent and comparable to MOTU Classics at a very reasonable £14.99. I also noted that for both series there seem to be plenty of each of the four turtles on the shelves.
I'm not usually that interested in TMNT, but they're doing something right if they grab my attention like that.

Saw the TMNT display in the entertainer today. Surprised to see the Classics out here. Shame lazy eye on Donatello hasn't been fixed. May get FX Shredder next as he seems to be a bit meatier as Shredder than the standard figure. Will most likely remove the voice function somehow  |

That line-up has me all excited. I believe I have the Kraang Hover Drone in Lego form. |

Ratking is a complete surprise, as is the Mouser 7-pack.
And I *love* the name Newtralizer.
The two ninja twopacks intrigue me to see what they are. (probably them as juveniles)

I reckon I am probably doomed to get one of the Classics figures come payday. But which one? I've never bought a Turtle toy. I was happy enough with the cartoon and UK comic back in the day, but those Classics figures look gorgeous and amazing for £15.
Does anyone know where I can find the new cartoon? I haven't watched a Turtles show since the original but it's getting universally positive praise.

Michaelangelo looks the best out of the classics. Donatello is a good pick as he is the most collectable out of the set. Earlier versions and the US release had a paint problem with one of his eyes that made him look giddy. The eye has now been fixed.
No TMNT eps on youtube or streaming I'm afraid. I can sort out a USB with episodes on if you'd like.

Can you play MP4 files? Some of the 11 eps I have are in that format. I can change them to AVI however.
