the tiny head in the torso should look really cool, i’m excited to see him and rocksteady next to bebop and shredder from the other set

gonna be a solid run altogether

It’s going to be such a great set once completed! Hopefully it keeps going and we get into more secondary characters.

Usagi

I refuse to get Usagi Yojimbo without Gen, Kitsune, Tomoe-Ame, Lord Noriyuki, Mariko, and Jotaro. At the least.

If DST can give us a dead Optimus Prime minimate, surely they can provide us with the Mighty Mutanimals.

Sorry. This isn't about Minimates but you guys are the only ones I know who will appreciate this.

I was out walking this afternoon and I saw a guy who looked just like the Krang exosuit from the classic cartoon. LIke a live human version. I almost did a spit take. Kind of a pointy head with a buzz cut and squared off oversized glasses. It would be such a great Halloween costume for that guy.

I was all for the wrestler Turtles as a box set until NECA went ahead and did it.

Why can't you still do it? I've been dreaming of Archie Comics minimates since the retro figures resurfaced. 

[DSTZach]

I'll push for it! I think the TMNT sets are doing well.

Same here! 

[NerdyTrev]

Can someone please tell me how to upload pictures so I can post yay shots? 

I've tried all the old tricks and they're not working.

You need to have room in your attachments folder, there's a size limit. You can delete previous attachments to make room, those pictures just cease to exist on the forum. Attachments are on your profile page.

Or you can link to a pic hosted on your socials. 

I will see if we shot yay shots at the office -- I do not have a set yet, we actually sold out (!) in our main warehouse, and had to request the remainder of the 1,987 run from the factory.

If you are don't want to delete old stuff to make room, get a free account at a photo hosting site. Upload your photos there and then link to them. All my photos posted in the last couple of years are hosted on flickr.

yay shot

This is the best I could figure out, guys.

[minifigvig]

i am turtle-green with envy! hoping my set is in the mail soon, i’m really liking how shredder looks

[Navaan]

I cannot wait for this set... and it will suck buying three more Foot Soldiers, but ready to replace my April and Beebop and Foots... Feet? IDK.

[luke314pi]

We received the first half of our shipment last week, and we sent those in the order that people preordered them. Now we are waiting for the 2nd half to arrive, and it sounds like it won't be until next week. 

[NerdyTrev]

Bebop is the star of the set for me. I'm also really impressed with the Foot Soldier. I love the extended hand pieces and I wish he'd been given slipper feet for even more awkward proportions like in the cartoon. Can't wait to have a battalion of those guys!

[Strider]

My set arrived from Luke. I really like the look of it. I haven’t had a chance to take the minimates out so I cannot say much about them other than they look great. I have never been a packaging guy but between the VHS style, retro carded Joes and this I am starting to change. The overall presentation is top notch in my opinion. I ended up with two sets of the carded Joes and duplicates of some of the VHS sets to have displayed. I am very tempted to do the same with this.

[WookieFodder]

April is fantastic. thanks DST
