I'm balking hard at the $50 price tag on Chote, especially knowing that prices are only going up from here.  I entirely dropped Marvel Legends when it hit $25 MSRP, and I'm edging slowly to only-on-clearance territory for some of the more secondary characters with NECA stuff now too.  Collecting is rapidly losing its fun content.

I still dont have the Mirage Raphael I preordered last August. What is up with this figure?

Anyone know what time the Haul-a-thon stuff goes up tomorrow, 04-11th?  I haven't participated in the Haul-a-thon in a while; was it 6am PST / 9am EST, I forget?

I don't know if you snagged them, but the 4 brothers in "Untouchables" style gear were the only turtle items yesterday that NECA was advertising online.

Holy cow, this knocked my socks off when I saw it!  Wormy Shredder!  Looks super cool.

@detrimental-fig I preordered these. This will have to be my Mirage Shredder, since the non battle damaged one was not available in a color to match the rest of my foot soldiers. Whatever happened to the Foot Elite Assassin they showed back at comic con? Figures that would have been released before this…

@supreme_d 
He is actually part of the Haulathon this year!

@detrimental-fig I totally forgot about that announcement. It looks like the same body, so I might skip the assassin since it might look weird to have him standing next to shredder in a relatively small foot soldier collection.

Just picked up my first couple of figures in this line, the Return to New York Leo and what I thought was Raphael, but I got a Mike body with Raph's accessories in Mike's box? I heard there was some sort of factory mixup, wondering if anyone has run into the same thing. I want to track down Donatello and, well I guess Raphael's body and Mike's accessories, wondering if anyone has run into this before and could verify if I order Raph I'd get Mike's accessories or vice versa. I bough tthem in person and just saw grumpy red mask and sais, clearly Raph, but when I got home I saw the box was labeled for Mike and the body matches up with NECA's own marketing for Mike too. 

I guess this is what I get for being old school and preferring them all in red masks. 

@docsilence i got Mikey and Don loose from ebay before the individual figures were released. When I got Raph finally, it was a distinct body and head from Mikey. I wouldn’t trust you’ll get stuff for Mikey by ordering Raph.

Should note that the heads for Mikey and Raph were switched in promo photos and the boxed set, from what recall. 

@supreme_d Thanks. I ended up finding a Mike on eBay that has actual photos of the figure in hand - I have no ide which is supposed to be which, but I was able to make sure I've got the two distinct heads/bodies (the line work on the front of their shells is pretty easy to tell apart) so I'll have both figures. Hoping the belts somehow indicate which one is which.

Worms of Madness Shredder looks great! I may just have to pick up the single RTNY Leo to pose with the Saki figure!

Haulathon was pretty good this year for me. April, Old Man Raph & Foot Assassin. I do wish they'd just do a single drop though as shipping is killer (I know you can normally just wait on the Mirage figures but I needed too Shredder was well).

This line is rapidly filling out my want list. Standard Karai is my main want now, Complete Carnage, Radical and Nobody would fill out my main Mirage display. Since we're getting stuff like Super Turtle and Old Man Raph, I'd love the Samurai-esque Leo from the frontispiece of Tales #2 and Old Man Don from Plastron Cafe. I know opinions on later volumes are mixed but a set of Image and Vol. 4 turtles would be must buys for me as well.
