Well, I've had no luck in finding any Usagi in stores aside from the Walmart exclusive glittery armor with horse one.

Ebay has tons of them, I got the samurai Usagi (horseless) for $13 but the average is around 18 bux. Around $18-25 for the non samurai versions.

Big public thank you to Maka for doing a little trade with me! He sent me the elusive Target Usagi action figure!!! It arrived today and I'm very grateful for him taking time to get it, package it and ship it out! It also contained a nice little surprise. Thanks for being such an awesome guy Maka! :D
Between Maka, Kyle and Stan the last month has been one blessing after another and it is very humbling to have such thoughtful people take time to help me out.
Thanks guys!!!

Thank you to Trevis and Spam. I got the samurai usagi from Trevis today with a nice note. I appreciate that note! Monday, I got the samurai usagi with the horse from Spam. Spam also included a cool wooden usagi chop that he made.

Nice work, right? Thanks Spam!

Thanks to everyone, I've gotten the usagi action figures. Although Cheryl gave me the talk, "I'm concerned at your growing dolls collection." :lol: I took Usagi to work (I have taken him out of the packaging and tossed the packaging, sorry collectors). And I put it on my side desk with a post-it that says, "Life's short . . . play!" :)

Peace, maka

Wow, the giant Usagi chop is...... COOL!!


Maka, you need to explain to Cheryl, it's not a doll, it's an "action figure"! :lol:

I received Usagi and horse from a friend on another forum... (diecast car forum). It's nice when collectors reach out and help fellow collectors. :)

The 10" Usagi is showing up in WalMarts. Got mine yesterday. I was gonna go for the smaller figure (which I didn't see) but once I saw this guy up close (and with a price tag of less than $13) I snatched him up.

Usagi's design for the show was neat, but interestingly it seems these toys are simply based on the comic Usagi.

Okay...

... so I found another standard release Usagi figure at retail on the weekend. And I'm thinking "Great! Now I have one to open and one to keep on card." Only, when I compared the two, the latest one I picked up has the same, dark "eyebrow" over the right eye that the SDCC release had!

Has anyone else found this? Was it changed mid-production? Why? Which one is more rare (if either)?

And the most important question: which one should I open, and which should I keep on card?!

Any help would be appreciated.

I've never seen one in the wild. I always look when I go to Target.

I got lucky and went to Wal Mart when they were stocking the shelves. I saw a TMNT box and asked if they could open it for me.

Just to let you guys know..the Target exclusive Usagi is now showing up at Big Lots.

It is the regular blue Usagi. Like the 10" Walmart exclusive, but regular size.
There is a photo of it on page 6 of this thread.

As far as I know Walmart has the 10" blue version and regular armored version Usagi,
and Target sells the regular size blue version.

I'm pretty certain the 6" blue Usagi is just the regular version, not a Target exclusive.

Thank you guys for clearing that up.
It was mentioned here on this thread (page 5 and page 7 up above) on Trevis Woods posts...

"I can't find the first figure released, the Target version Usagi action figure, anywhere."
and also
"Big public thank you to Maka for doing a little trade with me! He sent me the elusive Target Usagi action figure!!!"

So thats why I thought it was only sold at Target lol.
Plus also others I know that do have the blue regular figure, had only found theirs at Target.

I go to Walmart very often and never ever saw the blue regular figure ever lol!
There are three walmarts I go too and never saw it.
I do constantly find the armored Usagi, war horse Usagi, and the 10" blue version at walmart.

My apologies on calling the blue regular as a Target exclusive.
I thought it really was only sold at Target all this time lol.
