    I'm definitely interested in Metalhead if you decide to sell your extra! BTW, @chrisr291 started a sheet here for folks to help each other out.

    Awesome idea! With a wife, 13 year old daughter, and 10 year old son, my toy hunting days are very few and far between. I just do not have time to do that anymore. I like to pre-order my stuff and be done with it.

    Hello,
    Sorry to interrupt a conversation but I have a question to tmnt fig collectors.

    I am looking for the 4 turtles in a 3'25 quarters(9-10cm)
    It doesn't have to be action figure. It can be cake tofle.
    I tried looking on internet but it was difficult.

    Thanks for the help

    The original TMNT figures are only about 4" tall. You can order a set of reissues at Gamestop.

    Edit: They seem to be sold out online. Sorry.

    Thanks for the reply.
    I thought about that unfortunately 4 inch is too big for my shelf/collection. Even old marvel universe 3.75 fig is too big
    I cant go more than 10 cm.

    But I really appreciate the fact feedback

    No problem. There are these guys, but I think they are pricey for what they are.
    You can get them individually for 17.99 each at BBTS.

    There's tiny tmnt figures on ebay i think they're from the TMNT movie that's possibly your best bet, i think there are some other ones but I've never paid attention just stuff I've seen while scrolling and searching

    Maybe the ReAction versions?
    Product Search Page

    If you're looking for smaller figures and aren't married to the 3 3/4" size, Mega Construx turtles (if you can find them) are awesome and only like 1 1/2" in size.

    Maybe these guys will work? Says they are 3 incheshttps://www.bigbadtoystore.com/Product/VariationDetails/39473

    I dont know anything about them as far as articulation or if they have regular color variants but they meet the size requirement you have i think.

    Found my Casey Jones tonight in St. Louis. Actually a whole bunch of us found them in multiple locations. No Metalhead sightings yet.

    Shit...they’re larger than I expected. I assumed they’d be somewhere between toon and movie sized. And despite the weird factor, I wouldn’t be surprised if they sell out in an instant as well. I have to admit that I do harbor an uncomfortable attraction to them (I dig weird stuff) but I don’t think I’m going to go after them. I have got to start conserving space around here...lol...

    This is the problem right here, check out the comment after Neca explained how SDCC will be released tomorrow

    So anyone that wants to blame Neca, or even Hasbro or any other company for the .5 sec sell outs, well there's a guy right there confirming and explaining how his bot works, one more example

    i'm so use to that with sneaker collecting that you tell i'm unphased by their comments, see what we started doing in sneakers was what we call "brinking" making a limited popular shoe unpopular and forcing sellers to sell at a loss essentially causing someone to buy a bunch of bricks is always the goal, but there are still impatient people in the hobby of collecting and as long as people are willing to pay scalper prices, scalpers gonna scalp in every which way possible. People were on there saying bots can't swipe, smmfh, people have no idea just how sophisticated bots have become, swipe, captcha, 1per house hold, none of that works to stop them. 10-20 local friends and family members with separate addresses gets them past the 1per household, and like he said throwing the vendor a few extra bucks gets them to hold them for you instore if you have an untrust worthy vendor, like this ish is really sad, it hurts the hobby, it hurts the fandom, and the avg frustrated person has no idea why they can't buy so they blame everybody but the real culprits.....scalpers(for taking advantage) and ourselves(for buying from the scalpers)

    That $36 wasn't bad but got dog that's an outlier, prob someone helping a friend maybe, but the rest, Metalhead is $30 he's avg over 2x his retail price being sold by people that are just willing to pay scalper prices, and they're killing it with adding casey foot to the sale smmfh

    All too true! The past few weeks have been a shitstorm of this stuff. Like, REALLY bad. I wonder how many more times we go through this before people finally get fed up enough to stop feeding the scalpers...
