I can check mine when I get home if I remember.
(Already texted Misfit this on the day, lol) Found Ram Man & Beast Man on a peg, and was bummed, but then looked down, and found Raph face down on the shelf under the peg behind the Mutations! Mikey (& Casey) are in my PoL, so I've got all four boys! Still need Shredder (don't remember if I preordered him on BBTS, but he's presold out - I had POd Raph, so I cancelled that once I found him) & Krang, and then I'll be ready for new waves.
I've been casually picking up a figure here and there on trips to the store. I picked up Mikey today at Target and now I need a Raphael. I haven't seen his wave anywhere except for a lone Beast Man.
Two-Bopsteady is part of the Target Summer Geek Out. Just a preorder, if you're interested:
It hasn’t been officially confirmed, but Toy Habits have reported there’s going to be a Wave 5 and they are usually pretty accurate with their information, I’m still surprised we haven’t seen any version of the Foot in this line. Personally, I would much rather have the Foot on the Ninjor/Slamurai body, but I suspect it will be the Horde Trooper if we get one, what would be your preference?
Saw Splinter in Target today. $24.99. Register locked for 7/21. He has the torso for Metal-Boto. He looks beefy. Art on package has him transferring powers to Leo and He-Man.
Ticked me off they had six on pegs and register locked. That and Micro Galaxy Squadron Ghost taken from me as if I were a misbehaving child. I told the manager they should pull their stuff and not treat customers like that.
Target sucks!
Thwipp!

I saw a bunch of Marvel Legends today that were register locked too. Didn't see Splinter, but he's one I NEED to get.
lol! I felt so embarrassed last time I was register-locked on a toy. The girl working self-checkout was all but a teenager and I'm in my late-30s being like, "aww I wanted my TOY!" (I lean into the embarrassment as a cope).
Finally received my final Turtle and now the opening begins. But I wanted to open bright-green Samurai Skeletor first and wow, he's fantastic. I don't have a lot of MOTU figures but this Skeletor is far-and-away my favorite. Love his removable cape that would look good on just about anyone. He's already my favorite figure and that's before taking into account he comes with an ooze canister! 10/10. My only nitpick is that the chain on the weapon has a lot of plastic flash and feels very brittle. If mine breaks, I have a collection of metal and lego chains to replace it so no big deal.
@valo487 a wave 5 for this line? Interesting. I thought it would be done after 4, as all the major players will have figures. I wonder if Donatello will get a 2nd figure. He's the only turtle so far who can't be stripped down (at least head-wise) to be somewhat normal, as his helmet is part of his head mold.
Opened Mikey, and he's so much fun. His wig is just hilariously awesome. Still have to open Skeletor, Teela, and Moss Man. And Prime day made me crack and finally order Shredder, Beast Man, and Ram Man. Now if I could only find Merman.
I believe the rumored lineup for Wave 5 was Donatello, Raphael, Mekaneck and Rattlor. No further details were given beyond that Donatello and Raphael would be different from their first release, I don’t know if it will be a stealth version to match Leonardo or something entirely different. They just announced Funko products for the Turtles of Grayskull so they seem content to keep the license going.
Overall I'm digging all the turtles. They each have their issues IMO, but they're all neat. Good and bad of each:
Don: Great paint, expression and armor, bad ugly orange weapon (purple weapon or silver would be way better), would like a removable helmet option
Leo: Love the faux-fur armor, hate the sword that he can't hold when in two pieces
Raph: Almost perfect, his overall look is very slick, but would prefer a second sai just for posing options
Mikey: Lots of personality and dig the nunchuks (they fit so well between his fingers and under his armpits), not sure if I like the bright Nickelodeon Green on him over the toy color dark blue-green, wish he had a shell torso option.
In an ideal world, you'd be able to strip all these guys to look like standard MOTU turtles. Maybe we'll get there before the line ends, I'd consider buying more of these turtles, they're fun. They absolutely look like Battletoads. Skeletor is still the best in the line imo. Krang is pre-ordered and on the way soon; hopefully I can get Leatherhead. I've bought all the Target exclusives so far but I'm not really digging any of them (Splinter looks great). Have we seen any pictures of a completed Metalhead yet?
Oh man, Slash might be my favorite so far (I only have him, Leo, Donnie, Raph, and Mouse-Jaw, though, so...lol).
Splinter absolutely looks amazing and is my most anticipated. I hope he's easier than Krang, because I still don't know how to get him for MSRP.
After not seeing a single MOTU figure in a store across MA, NH, and ME and having my preorder kicked out another month by Walmart, I caved and bought Krang off a third party seller for 40 bucks. I can't see myself being willing to do the same for any of the other Walmart exclusives, but I had to have this Krang because I think he looks great. And the figure is pretty damn cool. I wish his eyes were sculpted a little lower on his head and it would have been cool if he got extra long arms since his arms look a little goofy once the Krang compartment has been installed, but it's fine. Great design. Good accessories, and the little, itty, bitty, Krang is actually pretty cute.
Splinter has been spotted at Target already, but he's register-locked until the 21st. Might be worth a trip to Target this Sunday if most stores are just waiting to put him out.
Those who can’t find Kraang, are you US based? Because we’re swimming in Kraang in VA, I didn’t realize anyone was having trouble acquiring him.
