Usagi TMNT figure in Stores?

Post by maichan »

Have any of you guys or gals been finding the new TALES OF THE TMNT figures in stores yet?

I think Jabba359 mentioned them appearing at Target, but I haven't seen any of the new TALES OF THE TMNT figures yet, at any Target or Toys R Us that I frequent (mostly west Orange County, CA).

Without giving away your secret shopping spots :roll: , tell us if you've found Usagi (or any of the new TALES OF THE TMNT figures) and where (store and city, state).

Grusagi got a few of the regular Usagi figures from Target a few weeks back. This last week, he found a bunch of the samurai armor Usagi figures as well as the samurai Usagi with horse figures at various Walmarts in the San Fernando valley. No luck at my local Burbank Target or Walmart.

I have seen them all at both Target and Walmart in the Chicago / Northwest Indiana area. Walmart just started to stock them within the past few days.

And here I am, sitting in the Chicago airport after spending the past couple days working in South Bend. Didn't even think to look at the Walmart by my hotel. Oh well.

WalMart has three exclusives--the Usagi with battle mask, Usagi with horse, and a large size (12", I think) Usagi.

Target and other stores will carry the regular figure.

In addition, there is the San Diego Comic-con exclusive and the Sakai Signature Exclusive. The Sakai exclusive will come in a different box with a different accessory and will be available in October or November.

I've seen many TMNT figures with the Usagi cardback, but only Raphael and Mikey. The Raphael and Mikey w/horse are everywhere. I have yet to see an Usagi of any kind. I just look when I'm in a store. Not making any special trips.

Raph, Mike, Leo and regular Usagi were part of the first wave. Armor Usagi and Donatello were part of the second wave.

Thank you again Sensei for this information.

Where will this Sakai Exclusive figure be available from? Directly from you?

Given the name (like the upcoming specific Usagi/TMNT crossover that will be available through the online store) I was thinking that, but was going to ask as well :)

"It's wabbit season, and I'm hunting wabbits, so be vewy, vewy quiet!"

Here's what I found at the one Walmart I visited... only turtles! no Usagi! The hunt continues! 8)
