Mysterious Stranger Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 The Casey Jones has a face underneath the mask. It's a slip cover. Is it a regular face? Because what I've seen shows its another dark mask like face. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zak Katz Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 He has an alternate head. The one under the sculpted mask is his actual face. u Zach's FB pic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mysterious Stranger Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 (edited) Oh sweet! I missed that photo somehow. Thanks! Now was that head ever shown previous to Zach's post? I don't recall seeing it in any of the promo pics or any time the figure was shown off. No big deal, just curious if it was a surprise or not.

AceSimba Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 kmart was one of the easiest places i've picked up minimates at, thats kinda a letdown, hope ill be able to find another place to get other turtle series down the road since the TRU here for whatever reason stopped getting any mates Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MisterMiracle Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 So far, I'm missing K-Mart as well. I found about 5 different strips from Series 1 at K-Mart but I've yet to see any of my local comic stores with TMNT Series 2 (and there's 5 comic stores here).

thenerdieststore Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 Ugh. Looks like this is going to be a ridiculous hunt besides ebay gouging. I hope my TRU gets them... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TENIME_art Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 I found an empty strip at K-Mart, then a few weeks later, 4 packs - 3 of which were Turtles (the 4th was a Foot Soldier, which I bought). The only reason I have a Kraang is because of an amazingly kind board member. I'm sorry it makes things more difficult for others not having them carry any more, but good riddance to at least K-Mart exclusives. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thenerdieststore Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 lol I feel your pain. The exclusives can be ridiculous to find unless you live in a major city. I lucked out that I am right next to New Orleans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hailtotheking Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 I picked up the case of series 2 my lcs ordered for me in IL, but I haven't seen the TRU sets yet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mysterious Stranger Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 Just got my case of Series 2 blind bags. #768 of 1200 for those keeping score. Can't open them until I get home though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mysterious Stranger Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 Are the figures in the same order in every case? If so, what spot is Karai in?My case:Bradford Raph x2 Splinter x2 Mikey x2 Donnie x2 Karai x2 Leo x2 Casey x2 Norman x3 I can confirm this case layout as mine was identical. I may have missed it in the control art but the unmasked Leo head under the pizza mask was a pleasant surprise. I've only opened up one of each and just checked for physical defects, but from what I've seen so far this is another solid series. The plethora of accessories with the Turtles makes buying them again (twice as I bought a case) a little easier. Still wish there was more of a difference in the Turtles themselves from the first series but I get why they were done this way. For someone who may have missed the first series these are a great way to get the Turtles in their current looks. Now... do I need more Normans or am I good with 3?

karamazov80 Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 I actually didn't feel compelled to get the series 1 Turtles, but will get these at some point for the white eyes. I'll have to get a series 1 Mikey for those awesome nunchuks, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mysterious Stranger Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 That's probably my biggest complaint about Series 2 Mikey. If we hadn't gotten the metal chain nunchuks with Series 1 Mikey it wouldn't be an issue. But we got spoiled by them and now that Series 2 doesn't have them they are missed.

karamazov80 Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 I'm assuming it was a tradeoff to get so many other accessories with each figure. Something had to give, and those series 1 'chuks couldn't have been the cheapest thing to produce. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterMiracle Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 (edited) I finally found a fresh case of Series 2. I was able to grab a Bradford, two Karais, and three Normans. I'm going to wait for the Toys R Us 2-packs for the rest. I can't justify spending $5.99 on a single figure when TRU has the 2-packs for $7.49. So far, I like what I see. The only negative is that my Bradford has some paint issues and of course he would be the hardest one to replace. I thought everyone preferred the new nunchuks over the older ones when we first saw pics??? Edited May 1, 2015 by MisterMiracle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

homestar17 Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 I like the fact that you can pose-manipulate the Series 2 'chuks (exactly like Zach's pic), but then I also have the ones from Series 1 as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mysterious Stranger Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 You can also pose the chain 'chuks with a little piece of twist-tie threaded through the links. I get the pros and cons of both 'chuks and I know everyone has their own preference. Like I said, if the Series 1 figure had the molded plastic chain I wouldn't have blinked. I didn't know that metal chain was a possibility for Minimates until I opened Mikey and that raised the bar for me. So when Series 2 Mikey had the sculpted plastic chain it stung a little. But only just a little. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shogi Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 Will the TRU series 2 figures be blind bagged, or sold in 2-packs? Pretty sure they're gonna be normal blister carded two packs like series 1 was Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
