Sold on every one of those Triceratons.
Huh, Bebop and Rocksteady fell into my BBTS PoL despite the Stateside-sales issue; but I cancelled them as I can't keep up with the line as much I'd like to. Somebody snap them up!

Hope this doesn't become a thing.
LT Cave wouldn't normally have these up yet anyways, but I notice all their pre-orders are listed as Sold Out now. I'm not entirely sure if they were before today or not, but it's really gonna suck if the sources for these all get cut off.
Where was another good place to get these at? Splinter sold out on LTCave and I was lazy and didn't order. Cause I kinda thought he'd get in stock before selling out...
Also I guess I'll have to get triceratons now? Yeesh.
Splinter seems to be available to pre-order on Chosen Prime:

Price is higher than other places though.
Well shit!
I’m buying these to go with my Creative Beast dinosaurs, so I can’t see how I could possibly pass on the Triceratrons!
not my favorite take on Casey, bit it’s still Casey I ain’t not buying a 1:18 Casey!
Obligatory "Hey, Fwoosh is back!" comment.
New figures popped up while I was on vacation. The Triceratons look pretty cool, but I don't need them. Casey, on the other hand, is the first figure in this line where I really don't like the approach so that's another easy pass. I want to keep this display neat and tidy anyway and am just waiting on April and Krang.
Another Fwoosh is back comment!
I got April during the blackout and she is fantastic. Maybe not as exciting as Shredder or one of the mutants, but she moves really well, the sculpt is nice, and the paint too. Maybe less wash on her boots might have actually looked sharp, but but really nothing to complain about. I know the competition is light, but she just may be the best April figure that's ever been done. Too bad it's in a scale a lot of people don't collect.
I ended up canceling all of my pre-orders from China that were all paid for because of this tariff garbage.
Maybe I'll still grab a few of them eventually.
I got my JoyToy April (skipped Splinter) back when the boards were out, just got Krang and Slash (skipped Tokka), and my Casey and Triceratrons have a ship notice so I should be getting them by the end of the month.
The newly announced Ground Chuck, Dirtbag, and Rahzah wave looks great but I’ll be skipping them. I’m not a 1/18 scale collector and I already have NECA versions of all these characters I don’t need to double down on everything.
I wish my brain wasn’t so ‘87 Turtle lore pilled, Ground Chuck alone would make for a stunning “cyborg bounty hunter minotaur” character… but you can’t get him without his buddy Dirtbag! They’re buddies!!!!
but the inclusion of Ground Chuck and Dirtbag if nothing else means this line has the potential to go crazy like NECA in terms of character selection, even if it’s limited to just ‘87 cartoon choices (although I’d love to see a swerve in a future wave and see Hun, Snakeweed, Repomantis, something not originating in the ‘87 cartoon/toy line they put their spin on)… I’m not sure how many I’d buy, but I’m definitely in for at least Leatherhead when they get to him!

I want Fugitoid and the 'bag of organs' guy whose name I forget atm.
