@yojoebro82 I was able to find a Tatsu in store by clicking "Check Nearby Stores" after selecting the Store Pick Up option? I had to drive over an hour to get him but he was there and waiting
The online listing does it frequently where it appears to be in stock on the app, but won't let you check out. That's why at any given time if you open it up it will say "In over 200 people's carts." I have been checking off and on throughout the day since the listing went live hoping to catch it in stock at a nearby store. No luck yet. I am assuming I'll have the best luck late at night after close and in the morning before opening. That's how I got the Casey/Raph set years ago, only then you couldn't order for pickup so I had to wait outside the door for the store to open.
Found two in the wild for me and a buddy. According to all the reports of local sightings I'm seeing online, two is all that stores are getting at this time. I got lucky because my area Walmarts are terrible. Tatsu was the last movie figure I needed....good find.
Managed to snag Tatsu today. Was legitimately not excepting to find him, I was at Walmart for a different reason and decided to check. Found a single one on the peg.
Glad to put that saga to rest swiftly. I don't have time for toy hunting right now.
Walmart's website is a lying whore. I found Tatsu, and picked one up for a friend to save him the search. But the site continued to say "not available at this store" at every location. I only checked the store I did in the city because at like, 5:40am when I was checking the listing it blipped as in stock. And then back to "not available" after I tried placing an order.
Ai-ai-ai.
A fellow collector helped me out with Tatsu. He's pretty great. I was skeptical about the soft goods, but they work just fine. There's some temptation to try and remove it all to see if there's any parts reuse underneath. Or if you can make a bare-chested Tatsu. The optional, yelling, head is terrible though and I don't think I really need any of these accessories. I can't believe he doesn't come with the one weapon he did use in the movie, a knife, but at least Shredder did. Still, I kind of like the fan even if I think it's not a good fit for his character (which is probably why they didn't use it in the movie). The Oni mask is awesome too, but I don't know what to do with it. Is that just a nod to his appearance in the 2012 cartoon? It's really well sculpted and painted so I think I might try to tack it to the wall of the detolf where my movie figures dwell because it would be a shame to stash it away with extra hands and such.
Finally after 2 home deliveries were delayed and 3 Store Pickup orders were cancelled, finally got a store pickup order to go successfully and got Tatsu. I’m happy I’m done with this hunt for Tatsu.
In Walmart. Holding Surtur Lego set and said why not. Checked the DVD area. The same two packs of Secret of Ooze Foot soldiers…Deadpool stuff…anime things-Tatsu! Holy crap! Okay check the box. It’s not open. Open up the sweet sweet cover. He’s got a good paint job and all the accessories-Freaking Tatsu! That is awesome! Love the accessories! The soft goods! My Foot Clan is complete!
Found in Walmart in Keller TX. Only one there.
Sweet!
Thwipp!
Tatsu looks orderable on the site, but once you go to your cart, it says "out of stock/unavailable." *sigh* Fing incompetent, Walmart.
For those with the Soto Foot Soldier 2 pack, other than a bit of shading is there any differences from the 1st movie Foot solider 2 pack? Any new or different accessories?
I really hate when the Turtles are depicted wearing shoes. Specifically these live action costumes (like the music Turtles). It makes their feet look TINY and throws off all their proportions. I don't care for the head sculpts either (not NECA's interpretation, which is accurate, I don't like the source).
Nice. I clicked the link and it said sold out, but all I had to do was refresh to be able to order. $15 shipping certainly sucks so after tax this set is a tick under $175 for me. NECA is lucky I am a Christmas afficionado and that I like stupid variants.
I followed ToyShiz’s link were he said it was Pre-order, but when I clicked through it was In Stock and arriving in a week.
Did Walmart and NECA change how they handle orders? Because between these and Tatsu Walmart exclusives have been almost as painless as Target, it’s CRAZY!
watch I just jinxed it and Jumpsuit April or Foot Disguise Casey will be a nightmare, but these Tatsu and the X-Mas Turtles: so easy!
Tatsu was easy??? I have never seen it in stock, online nor in person.
