Today was a wild goose chase looking for the NECA Ninja Turtles Musical Mutagen Tour set. I went to 4 Targets to find nothing then they went on "sale" on Target.com at "4 pm". I refreshed the page starting at 3 and still couldn't get one. But they're on e-bay for $300-$500. Screw that. Next week is when the Musical ones hit, this weeks roll outs Turtle wise were Casey Jones and Foot Soldier cartoon 2 packs, and Metalhead. I can tell you just going off the tracking on the shipment to the stores i checked, the shipments arent showing up until Monday at the latest, However, this one is not apart of the regular Tuesday service order's we can schedule it whenever this week. So just be on the look out starting on Tuesday. I can also say that sadly Target Corporate does not allow us to stick NECA at the Electronics service desk anymore. I used to like cross promote and put some at the NECA section, then have like 3 or 4 units at the Electronics desk for people who want them and would go and ask for them, sadly thats not allowed anymore. Thanks for the tip. This morning was like Black Friday when me and 6 other grown ass men ran to the back of Target as soon as they opened looking for Ninja Turtle toys.

Yeah dude, it's why I gave up on NECA. I love the figures I've managed to get, but it's more hassle to get them than it is fun to collect. Are you not in America because Big Bad Toy store ships them no problem. Also, I'm so glad I'm not into TMNT, Predator, or Alien because Neca would make me broke. I get the non-difficult stuff on BBTS. Unfortunately, I'm mostly interested in TMNT. It's more trouble than it's worth when Super 7 also has a collector line.

So what are some of you guy's favorite places online to toy shop? Since I can't take my usual road trips to go hunt I'm needing to get my fix online. I found this place called Megalopolis that I like decent enough for new toys. Any others for new or vintage you folk use?

Big Bad Toy Store is my favorite, because they allow you to bulk ship your items once they all arrive in stock, rather than individual shipping. I think I've got 5 or 6 things fully paid for right now, and once the Mafex Batman I ordered comes in it'll all ship at once. Really convenient (and fun to get a huge box of toys twice a year).

I've also used Sure Thing Toys, good for import stuff. A lot of people don't want to use Amazon, but it's easy to cancel preorders if I change my mind so I use it as a backup.

I discovered them when they did their Star Trek Starship Collection, which takes me back to my love of Star Trek (and Star Wars) Micro Machines. I never buy anything off the site, I just love looking at their selection.

ok, so a heads up for those hunting the musical turtles target sdcc, all of my Targets arent getting the shipment in until Tuesday before 8pm, so most likely wont be put out on the floor until Wednesday at sometime. Now, one store isnt getting it in until Wednesday by 8pm. So be patient with us vendors working NECA, we are trying to get it out on the shelves for you all. There is also a shot we may be required to spider wrap security device it too so hopefully the other reps know how to do it without damaging the box. Good luck to you all!

Why do a quarter of the G.I. Joe Classifieds have to be exclusive to like three different stores? Most of the Classified line have come out great but the act of actually buying the f***ers has been next to impossible.

I was able to grab the TMNT Musical Mutagen Tour 4-pack. Honestly was thinking about flipping it if I found it, but once I had it in my hands, I had to keep it.

Just bought the New Day figures that having matching attire. Been wanting to add to my collection and wanted to add a tag team or group that I love. The New Day figures fit the criteria of a) I love those guys and b) I could afford them.

Extremely awesome haul here. I'll loved to get my hands on a John Wick. Some people have their gripes about the mezco version, but I'd be satisfited with that. Why do a quarter of the G.I. Joe Classifieds have to be exclusive to like three different stores? Most of the Classified line have come out great but the act of actually buying the f***ers has been next to impossible. And yes, the pain is real. I'm gonna just have to order a Case of Wave 1 and the same for 2 to save me the trouble since I actually want to be a complete with this series as much as I can.

Got my “Little Bit of the Bubbly” and Edgeheads Ringside Exclusives the other day. The Bubbly looks good next to the Slim Jim SDCC Exclusive! Also bought The Fiend (way too expensive, Ringside) and the Bray Wyatt funhouse Exclusive. — My “Little Bit of the Bubbly” figure set came yesterday. I couldn’t bring myself to open the bottle to take the stuff out. Might have to grab another one and display it both open and closed. I need to stop watching what Cardona and Myers do... I can’t bring myself to open any of the exclusives. If I really want to and have the extra funds, I’ll buy two. Goes for pretty much any elite figure I actually want to take out as well. One for play, one for display. Especially first-timers in the line.

The Facebook group has me so itchy to buy! Ugh. I need more money!
