Just FYI I did a live chat with a TRU.com rep yesterday afternoon. They are going to refund me for the 2 Mikey/Casey packs I got instead of Mutagen Donnie/Norman and let me keep the 2 Mikey packs. They couldn't send me the right ones because they are out of stock (no surprise) but at least they are refunding me for the wrong packs.

Just did a live chat and I was told that they can't replace the Donnie sets because they are "out of stock" and I have to ship my Mikey's back in order to get a refund on those. What a HUGE pain in the ass this turned out to be.

If they want to be suspicious, they should go apply to be loss prevention at Kmart.

Never feel badly when a company screws up. It's their job to correct errors.

Is there a variant on the Casey pack? The two I saw in store has extra gray paint apps on his right side of the masked face.

I also had a chat with an agent this morning. I should be getting a refund and I was told I can do what I want with the Mikey set

How come you guys get to keep your sets but I have to mail mine back in order to get a refund? Are they offering that or are you guys demanding it?

They told me I could keep the sets and they would give me the refund. I didn't ask for it nor expect it. I'll probably put these in the Toys For Tots barrel at the end of the year.

That's exactly the same idea that I had but then the TRU rep I chatted with was adamant that I had to return these in order to receive a refund. They said they cannot process it without them being returned to the warehouse. I even mentioned that other people were able to keep their sets and still get the refund and I was told that isn't possible.

Well you've gotta hand it to TRU.com...they're consistently inconsistent!

I didn't even ask to keep it, the rep said: "You can keep, donate or discard the wrong item."

The only thing I demanded was to also get my shipping refunded since I wouldn't have even ordered online if not for the Mutagen Donnie

I was a bit curt with the rep at the beginning due to the fact that I tried to cancel the order before it shipped and was told (by another rep) it was too late (they hadn't even made a shipping label a week since I had ordered) and that the item numbers were not incorrect as I stated.

I can say from my purchases, that the M.O.U.S.E.R.s, Snakeweed, Spyder Bytez, Leatherhead and Dogpound in the Playmates 5 inch line are nye perfect for Minimate scale.

I don't have a pic, but Leatherhead can even hold Donnie (or a Kraang bot) by the head.

I have been scooping these guys (Playmates) up at Kohl's Department stores when they send out $10 gift cards.

Got my Raph/Anton Zeck 2-pack from TRU.com without any issues. Now I just need to track down a couple of Mutagen Donnies for less than a kidney and I'll be good.

BTW preorders for Series 3 have opened up. BBTS has the blind bag case up for preorder with 1 per case "Vision Quest" Splinter (clear blue?) and Ivan Steranko (pre-mutant Rocksteady?)

When I asked Zach at SDCC about Series 3 Splinter being clear blue or not he wasn't sure.

I kind of hope they pull a TRU/Walgreens Electro with that Splinter and make the TRU one per case as well with one being transparent Blue and the other being GitD blue...

Does anyone know if these will be available in two packs too?

I'm assuming everyone except for Ivan Steranko & Vision Quest Splinter will be available later in the TRU 2-packs. It's probably similar to Series 2 where Bradford and Karai where the blind bag chase figures and not available in the 2-packs.
