I wanted all the tmnt ones but at $40 each, I probably won't be able to afford them all.. factoring in shipping fees and amazon's import deposit, it's going to work out very expensive.. bummer.

Not everything is in everyone's price point, that's why Funko makes so many cool products. There is really something for everyone.

Also, Marvel and SW was already stated as going to happen right? Not an if? (I think Mike already cleared this up though :))

Yeah thats what I thought I read... the "if" post somewhere above mine threw me off. Probably saving my money for the Marvel pieces if they are characters I want. Obviously, Iron Man will be a must.

That was quick. Interesting that they are all the same price. Weren't the rarities supposed to be different? I would have thought the prices would correspond to that.

Not sure that any of those are limited editions. The translucent and metallic I was pretty sure were normal runs. Wasn't positive about the gold and silver, but wasn't able to follow up with Brian to ask. If BBT's prices are any indication, these should all be regulars--which is fine by me; will save me money. I was worried about those gold and silver turtles.

There is an option when you order from them. It says to "upgrade to collectors grade" add $2.00 and that is on all of them. Wonder what that means.

Gemini is going to get these, I'll wait an order from them.

That just assures the buyer that packaging will be in mint condition.

Standard grade has always been mint when I buy from them. And I have been buying from them for many years now. There is no need to upgrade.

Thinking they dont know the production numbers on these yet and put them all up for the same price. That might change and their prices might go up. But if you pre order now, they will honor their original pricing.

After years of buying many action figures from BBTS, I've had the same experience, Chris. You really don't need to spend the extra 2 bucks.

I wish I knew which ones were more limited. I'm really liking the Gold Glitter Batman now....like I really have any room to add more figures!! lol

I know. I wish I could have asked him about that.



I know from my merchandising days that "hand numbered" was a loose term. We once sold a 5000 run of basketballs that were "hand numbered" They were all indeed individually numbered, but it was a stamp ie 13 of 5000 printed on each ball. Its just a guess but theres my 2 cents. Thanks for the pictures Scotty.

I want these but I need more info before I shell out the money for them.

Is it $40 for each of them? Each variation? How many are made of each?

Batman is ordered, all of them look cool to me. Deadpool would be a no-brainer if they decide to do Marvel, and Iron Man or the Human Torch would be cool as well.

Press release says to look for it in July.

All the pre orders have been $35 regardless of edition run so I expect near the same.

The multi-metallic turtle are sold out to RETAILERS. That eBay listing is ridiculous. I don't think all retailers have sold out to the public. I've only seen a few places listing them.
