Onyx_6 Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 I was very lucky to find a clear Leo at my TRU. I missed the first cases' one and my rain checks never came in. I never saw them at the other TRU stores I visit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterMiracle Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 Every local TRU that I've been to sold through twice so I'd say it was a huge hit. Usually there's one or two sets that linger from EVERY wave (Marvel, Marvel Movie, Walking Dead, Sony, Ghostbusters, etc.). I've never seen a set sell that quickly and consistently before. I was never able to find a Mutagen Leo on here but people on here hooked me up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youbastards Posted March 9, 2015 Author Share Posted March 9, 2015 Now that I think about it, I had less problems finding the K-Mart wave than I did finding the TRU wave. :\ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
delta chameleon Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 The TRU I frequently go to (Aurora, IL) sold out of these very quickly! I never did find a clear Leo. Not a single peg warming pack at all. I was lucky when I found a Kmart with them, or else I was going to be stuck ordering them online. Glad to see they did so well. I will have to be a bit more vigilant with wave 2! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zak Katz Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 I'm still surprised there was never a restock at my TRU, they sold out and then put other merchandise in its place. Every pack except the exclusive is still available online though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arnim zola Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 I also think that's ridiculous. I would keep buying foot soldiers on my way home from work, or sets of turtles for my nephew, but with shipping It's litterally costing me more the more I get online.

hellpop Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 Definitely sold well. I don't know if I saw them restocked, though. But if they were produced in the same amounts TRU sets usually are, these are an unequivocal hit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buttheadsmate Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 I was fairly sure that they sold well at the B&M TRUs but the glut that remains at TRU.com may, IMHO, thwart the chances of seeing the second wave at TRU.com BTW I'm still a tad hungry for KMart mutagens .....anybody willing to pursue a trade ? PMs please. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TENIME_art Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 I never saw them restocked. I lucked out finding a fresh case (and lucked out having money for a set). The next time I saw them (at a different store), they only had Raphs & Mikes. And I never saw them at third (or more) store, or ever again at the two previous.

TimeTraveler Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 Are there any differences in the turtle minimates when it comes to the 2 pack tru ones than the blind bag ones? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSTZach Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 (edited) No. Well, keychain attachments at TRU. Edited March 14, 2015 by DSTZach Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimeTraveler Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 Thanks! I tried searching through the 90 pages for the answer. I also checked out the database and didn't see any differences, but wanted to ask. The blind bags do come with new characters though?

DSTZach Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 In Series 1, the only exclusives were the mutagens, and Kmart got a Kraang instead of April. But in Series 2, Karai and Bradford are only in bags at your LCS, and Mutagen Don and Anton Zeck are only at TRU (not together). The other seven are shared.

TimeTraveler Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 Alright cool! Thanks again Zach. One last question on them lol hopefully.. Will series 2 all be blind bag or will there also be some 2-pack or 4-pack sets released? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSTZach Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 There will be two-packs at TRU, like last time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSTZach Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 Only four-pack planned is the first appearance set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterPL Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 Is TRU getting the 4-pack? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gmonkey2k Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 No,comic and specialty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterMiracle Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 (edited) No. Well, keychain attachments at TRU. The K-Mart blind bags also came with keychain attachments. It wasn't just the TRU ones. Are there any differences in the turtle minimates when it comes to the 2 pack tru ones than the blind bag ones? Actually, there is a difference between the blind bags and the TRU turtles. The blind bag versions seemed to have better paint jobs. Edited March 14, 2015 by MisterMiracle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onyx_6 Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 And (what) will K-mart have (in) Series 2? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buttheadsmate Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 And (what) will K-mart have (in) Series 2? I was thinking the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSTZach Posted March 15, 2015 Share Posted March 15, 2015 Not sure there will be a Series 2 at Kmart, but I will keep you posted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterMiracle Posted March 15, 2015 Share Posted March 15, 2015 Whaaaaat?! That's awful news! It was waaaaay easier to find TMNT Minimates at K-Mart then it was at Toys R Us or specialty shops. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
