For anyone who missed my post about these in the news section, NECA has said these are starting to hit physical stores in limited capacity this week and should be available online and in more stores next week. Here are the place holder links for the figures on the target website

I might have some nitpicks with turtles but Bebop and Rocksteady are almost perfect figures.  

The exclusion of Rocksteady's helmet AND his combat knife is damn-near a criminal offense, as far as I'm concerned.  No, he didn't wear the helmet in most episodes, nor did he often pull the knife (if ever), but he DID wear the helmet in most of the first season, and the knife was ALWAYS on his back.  Both have been mainstays of every action figure of the character, ever.  The Playmates collector series figures had both, and while the knife didn't have a sheath (for some reason), they still included it, and they made the helmet a removable piece to boot!  The fact that these guys' accessories are all straight reused pieces just adds insult to injury.  I mean . . . I get it, so we're not gonna get a sewer cover shield or trash can lid shield or Bebop's drill-gun, those are all specific to the old figures.  But his helmet and knife, at LEAST, c'mon NECA!

. . . I'll still buy them, but that's a pretty solid ding.  They're charging $50+ per pack of these guys.  At least give us their iconic, relevant parts!

Links are above from Target. But the Rocksteady and Bebop set has been in stock 3 times already and sold out in mins, so unless you happen to be sitting online when Target puts them up assuming they do it for a 4th time the chances of snagging one aren't great.
