  1. Walmart Collector Con started yesterday, and with it came confusion, chaos and lots of pre-orders! The event, scheduled over 2 days, failed to make that clear as hundreds of collectors took to social media on day 1 to show their discontent that they missed out on a pre-order for a figure... that wasn't up for pre-order yet! Also, NECA held a livestream on Walmart, and teased a new line of houseware, including a revolving tray and chairs?! CONFUSING SCHEDULE? "Did I miss it? - Available on the 15th at 7am - So... I missed it?" (Actual conversation witnessed on Twitter) For their Collector Con, Walmart first gave us a sneak peek on March 7th, showing all the figures that would be available at the event, on March 14th and 15th (you could already click on the items that you would want to buy to see the time when they would be available, but that's not important). The event started on the 14th at 7am PST, and confusion ensued. "Did I already miss the NECA Casey Jones?" asked a collector. "Wait, are the WWE figures already sold out?!" asked another. "It shows that it's unavailable, this is BULL***T!" tweeted a third one. It turns out that, as the schedule had mentioned, only half of the selected items would be available on the 14th, while the others would be available on the 15th. Additionally, a few of the NECA figures were going to be only available at 12pm EST on the 14th, during the NECA livestream on that same website (which was advertised at the top, with a countdown, mind you) and it was enough to confuse the community. "Half on Day 1 at 7am PST, a few more NECA at 12pm PST during a livestream, and the second half on Day 2 at 7am PST? I don't get it." NECA LIVESTREAM TEASES! Speaking of the NECA livestream, Blaine and Mike from NECA showed us the figures available during the event (the same ones that had been revealed during the sneak peek the week before). Ghostface Inferno! D&D 50th anniversary Warduke! Last Ronin Casey Jones! But wait... there's more! Some eagle eyed collector managed to see items that were displayed in the background, as a tease... Wait... ENHANCE! After doing simple regular stands, it looks like NECA is teasing doing revolving trays (or 'Lazy susans')! This one looks pretty neat, in black, and will allow you to have a 360° look at your figures! If it looks like a sewer cover from TMNT, it will sell out immediately! Wait... what? ENHANCE! Oh my god, YES! NECA is finally stepping into the chair territory!! The chairs were teased during the stream, as we could see Mike spin left and right on his (both directions?!), while Blaine seemed to sit comfortably. Bar stools from NECA? Sign me in! Rumors say they'll be adjustable! Oh yeah, there was also a Ultimate Silence of the Lambs box in the background. UPDATE: After some thorough journalism, we have managed to get the scoop on the chairs, and here is your first look at them! Special thanks to Blaine (@blainerthings) and Mike (@pooz_art) for the exclusive look! What did you think of Walmart Collector Con? Let us know in the comments! More news at 11:00... Just imagine... TMNT themed bar stools (Cartoon, Movie, Mirage and Last Ronin)! *ToyFarce News is parody news for laughs and not meant to be taken seriously!
  2. "Do you have any idea how much the rent for a laboratory in New York costs? 300 bucks is NOTHING!" said a member of the scientific community from New York. Last tuesday, on "Turtle tuesday", NECA put their new sewer diorama up for pre-order: Donatello's laboratory. The price point ($299.99) led to a lot of complaints from the toy community (so basically, a regular day). One community that didn't have an issue with it is the scientific community, who has been victim of the high prices of rental of laboratories in New York City for years. ToyFarce investigated... "When a colleague told me that we could get a fully equipped lab for under $300, I thought he was going mad!" said Professor Stockman (no relation). "The price of a lab is New York is outrageous! It's at least 20 times that price, and you only rent it for a few days! If you can get a fully equipped laboratory for $299.99, go for it! That's a steal!" Another professor (Professor Perry, no relation either) told us that it was also a great experiment, showing to toy collectors how expensive laboratory space and equipment can cost. "It's a good laboratory, even! Sure, it could use a bit more laboratory glassware, as there are no beakers or flasks present on the pictures, but the space only should cost way more than that! I'm also 98% sure it doesn't really follow any laboratory safety regulations, but at that price, who cares?" "You see, one side has a lot of nice painted details on the lab equipment, while the other side doesn't. Isn't it fascinating?" Are you getting Donatello's lab? Let us know in the comments! More news at 11:00... Cowabunga, science dudes! *ToyFarce News is parody news for laughs and not meant to be taken seriously!
  3. It's Wednesday, and you know what that means: ToyFarce review! This week, we're having a look at more TMNT: The Last Ronin figures from NECA. Namely, the figures of Raphael, the Foot Clan's Karai, a Foot Bot and a Synja Patrol Bot. It had been a while since we've had figures from The Last Ronin (previous review here), and all of a sudden, when it rains, it pours! Raphael, Karai and the Foot Bot all came out last month, while the Synja Patrol Bot has been randomly available exclusively at Best Buy for some time, and is now available for pre-order everywhere else. In case you missed it, TMNT: The Last Ronin is an excellent TMNT comic book. Kevin Eastman and Peter Laird, the original creators of the TMNT, reunited to give us a great story in a future, battle-ravaged New York City, where the last remaining of the Ninja Turtles seeks justice for his family (Warning: there will be spoilers in this review). The box art is beautiful, and the figures come with a lot of accessories. It's one of my favorite lines to collect at the moment. First off, from the flashback scenes: Raphael is a deceptively awesome figure, a sleeper hit, if you will. He's a bit smaller and looks quite bulky, but that figure can MOVE! He's build like a fridge but can kick butts! He comes with an extra head (screaming), 3 extra pairs of hands, his sais, one arrow (aww...sad) and a katar/ throwing knife (aww...again). This is the version of Raphael from his final showdown in the comic book, and the paint and details on that figure are amazing. Straight out of the comic book pages. One of the best figures of the year (and it came out in January). Karai, one of the leaders of the Foot Clan, is the one who Raphael has his final showdown with, so it makes sense that she came out at the same time. She also comes with an extra screaming head, 5 extra hands, her katana with sheath, and a katar/throwing knife (which she uses on Raphael, so kinda weird that they both come with it, but I get some people might just get Raph). The figure has decent articulation and great head sculpts, but could probably move a bit more since she's a ninja. Now, back to the future (as in not from a flashback scene), the Foot Bot is a great figure, perfect for army building. He comes with 3 extra pairs of hands, a decapitated head, a smashed head, 2 katanas and 2 forearm attachments, to extend his arms. That figure looks great, with tons of details, just like in the comic book. The additional "battle damaged" heads are a great addition, you can have them lying on the floor next to your Last Ronin figure. Finally, the Synja Patrol Bot, also a sleeper hit! It looks great, with lots of lines to make it look like he came right out of the pages of the comic book. He comes with 2 heads, so you can have it as some sort of 'leader' or just 'troop', a damaged head with awesome details (the eye!), 2 extra pairs of hands, a katana with a sheath that can be attached on the bot's back, and a gun. Another great army builder figure, it does make sense to have 2 to have a leader and a troop. Caution: The figure comes with stickers which you can put on the figure to show its rank (depending on the head you use), and the stickers are taped at the bottom of the plastic insert. Be careful not to discard those! This figure looks great and has good articulation. NECA has already revealed the next figures in this line, which are Leonardo, Splinter and a bloody 'First to Fall' edition of Raphael (aaw... that's cruel). They are still available for pre-order on NECA's online store. We've also seen the other turtles at various conventions last year, so they should be available soon. More news at 11:00... "Foolish undisciplined brute!"
  4. It's Wednesday and you know what that means: ToyFarce review! This week, we're having a look at the Ultimate Feral Predator from the movie Prey by NECA! The movie Prey was a breath of fresh air for the Predator franchise, and this figure was highly anticipated. It took a while for it to be released since it was announced (+ a bit more wait for BigBadToyStore to get it), but it's finally here! The Feral Predator comes with a ton of accessories: removable bone mask, 2 extra mandible parts to change his head, 4 extra pairs of hands, multiple versions of his combistick (open, collapsed), multiple versions of his shield (open, opening and collapsed); wrist blades, his crossbolt gun and his 'backpack' (weapon storage thing?). The figures has incredible details in the paint and in the sculpt, and a few fun innovative features, like the backpack and weapons who have magnets to attach on his back. The figure can hold most of its weapons, in his hands and on his back, which is refreshing! More figures should be able to do that! As mentioned before, the movie was a breath of fresh air for the Predator movie franchise, and this figures does the exact same for the Predator line from NECA. It instantly became one of my favorite Predator figures. We can only hope NECA does Naru from the movie as well, to have some amazing showdowns on our shelves! More news at 11:00... "It know how to hunt... but I know how to survive."
  5. It's Wednesday, and you know what that means: ToyFarce review! This week, we're having a look at the Foot Training Keno and Foot Soldier two-pack from TMNT 2: Secret of the Ooze by NECA. After the SDCC Exclusive Keno set that came out last year, collectors kept saying not to buy it, because there would 'most certainly, 100% sure' be a normal release of it. Well, here it is! The scooter only turned into a thicc Foot Soldier... Foot Training Keno and Foot Soldier is fun two-pack, one of those that is not indispensable, yet you have to get it if you're a completist (like the upcoming Professor Perry two-pack... Can't wait!). The two-pack comes with the 2 figures, an extra head sculpt and an extra pair of hands for Keno, 2 extra pairs of hands for the Foot Soldier, the little bells from Keno's final test (had to google that one!), an ooze canister and a very nice punching bag accessory. The Keno in foot training gear figures is another really cool figure of Ernie Reyes Jr. The 2 heads that come with this one are different from the ones from the Scooter set, which means we now have 4 heads for Keno. Great details and paint. The punching bag is a nice accessory that can be used for tons of other toy photography. Mine has the 'Teezus' logo printed a bit off on it, but I will survive. The Foot Soldier is the THICC one from the beginning of the movie (if I remember correctly). It's nice to have a slightly different Foot Soldier, so they don't all look the same. This one is a bit taller and has a belly. I guess he didn't train as hard as the other ones... Maybe it's the computer guy, that sits behind a desk a lot? Same articulations as the ones from the previous movies. It's pretty simple, as long as NECA will release figures from the TMNT movies, I will buy them, deep cuts and all. More news at 11:00... Keno, wasn't it? You seem to be the only one worthy of a final test...
  6. It's Wednesday and you know what that means: ToyFarce review! This week, we're having a look at the 2 latest Universal Monsters Ultimate action figures from NECA, the Bride of Frankenstein and the Creature from the Black Lagoon. 2 more great offering for that line by NECA! The Bride of Frankenstein, as portrayed by Elsa Lanchester in 1935, is a fantastic figure. She comes with 3 different heads, a soft goods gown, an extra pair of hands, and bandages. If you have the Frankenstein monster and the accessory set, it is a no-brainer that you also need that one. You can display full of bandages, like before they reveal her look in the movie, with bandages all over. The 2 unmasked head sculpts look very good. The packaging art is, as always, beautiful with that line, using old posters from the film, with lots of colors. The Creature from the Black Lagoon, as portrayed by Ben Chapman and Ricou Browning, was one that I was really looking forward to. I've loved the design of that creature since I was a kid, and I nearly broke my own 'rule' of getting the black and white versions of those figures to get the colored one, as it looks so good in green too. 'Gill-man' comes with 3 interchangeable head sculpts and 3 extra pairs of hands (4 pairs in total). I'm a bit disappointed that he didn't come with more accessories, but at the same time, can't say what I would have added (a harpoon gun? a net?). The figure has a ton of details an looks amazing. More news at 11:00... "You... make... man? - No... woman!"
  7. It's Wednesday and you know what that means: ToyFarce review! This week, we're having a look at 2 more Ultimate action figures from the Gargoyles line by NECA, the Armored David Xanatos and Elisa Maza. "What? 2 humans in the Gargoyles line?! Yup!" Those 2 figures came out around September (2 more came out since, another review coming soon!). David Xanatos, in his Steel Clan Robot armor is a fun figure. If you have the Steel Clan Robot figure, it is pretty much the same figure, with the addition of the breathing apparatus around his neck, and the David Xanatos head. Oh, and that sweet shiny dark red color all over it, of course! Just like the Steel Clan robot, it is big and heavy, with a huge wing span. The Armored David Xanatos figure comes with an unmasked head sculpt with separate neck piece, 3 extra pairs of hands, 2 laser guns that can be attached on the forearm, and 3 fire effects to attach to his back and feet to make it look like he's flying. A great figure that would look great in front of an army of Steel Clan Robots (if you have the space. I don't!). Elisa Maza, another long-awaited, fan-favorite character from the show, is another great figure in the line. Elisa comes 3 interchangeable head sculpts and 2 different hairstyles (normal and hair blown by the wind), 2 extra pairs of hands, her cat Cagney, a flashlight, her police badge and the closed wings for Brooklyn (Yay! I love getting those closed wings for the Gargoyles that take a lot of space). Elisa does not come with a gun, but I used a gun from the first McFarlane Toys Munitions pack, and voilà! Elisa is complete (She even has a 'trigger finger' hand). The head with the hair blown by the wind is definitely my favorite, and it is nice to have Elisa displayed next to Goliath. I'm hoping for her Gargoyles version from that one episode... fingers crossed! The next 2 figures from the Gargoyles line are David Xanatos in a normal suit and the final member of the rookery three, Lexington. They both started to pop out in stores in some states a few weeks ago, and I am waiting for BigBadToyStore to get them. Both those figures can still be found on BigBadToyStore! More news at 11:00... "What could put claw marks in solid stone?!"
  8. It's October (aka Halloween month) *AND* we're getting a Friday the 13th during that month? You know what that means... Today's news will have to be related to our friend from Camp Crystal Lake, Jason Voorhees! We have been pretty spoiled when it comes to Jason action figures, but it seems that we're always missing that special one from everyone's favorite movie of the franchise... maybe not for long? Jason X, the 10th movie of the Friday the 13th franchise, is one of those cult classic, fan favorite movies, that clearly the favorite of the franchise for at least 8 people. It happens in the future, in space, Jason is somewhat resurrected and upgraded into a behemoth 'Uber Jason', and gets back to his old habits of killing everybody. ToyFarce managed to find leaked pics, after making them up: The Jason X Uber Jason Voorhees ultimate action figure should come with his signature upgrade machete, a red sleeping bag and a blue sleeping bag to recreate that iconic scene when Uber Jason is trapped in some sort of holodeck recreating Camp Crystal Lake, finds 2 campers that invite him to join them in their sleeping bags and... Recreate that iconic scene in your display! With New York Comic Con ongoing this weekend, NECA being present there *AND* today being Friday, the 13th, it seems like all the stars aligned and we are ready to get a reveal of the long awaited Jason X Uber Jason Voorhees ultimate action figure, RIGHT? They could even reveal it on 'X' (fka Twitter) for that special final touch! More news at 11:00... Ki...ki...ki...ma...ma...ma... IN SPAAAAACE! *ToyFarce News is parody news for laughs and not meant to be taken seriously!
  9. It's Wednesday, and you know what that means: ToyFarce review! This week, we're having a look at the TMNT: The Secret of the Ooze SDCC Exclusive Keno with Scooter set from NECA! Sure, SDCC was a while ago, and we're now closer to NYCC, but Keno had been sitting in my backlog and I totally forgot to take pictures... So a couple of months late, here is Keno with his scooter! The set comes in a gigantic pizza box, filled with a bunch of items that will probably end up in a drawer, à la Loot Crate: the Keno w/Scooter action figure set, a Roy's Greenwich Village keychain, a Roy's Greenwich Village t-shirt, a Roy's Greenwich Village magnet and an employee of the month card of Keno from March 1991. The set was $100 which is a bit much, even if it's fun when you open it the first time, before throwing most of the content in a drawer and forget about it forever (like a lot of Loot Crate items, basically). Keno comes with an extra head, 2 extra pairs of hands, a scooter (duh) along with the pizza box, the part to attach the pizza box to the scooter and a delivery bag, which even contains a mini cardboard pizza box. The only thing missing would have been tiny pizza slices, like the ones that came with the turtles, inside the box to complete it, but I'm nitpicking here. The Keno figure had been long-awaited, with actor Ernie Reyes Jr teasing it for some time and it's finally here! The likeness is pretty great on both head sculpts and it's a fun figure. He has the same outfit as in the first part of the movie, before infiltrating the Foot. The scooter is a pretty cool accessory to have too. This thing can be used in so many other toy photography! Deadpool riding a scooter, Batman riding a scooter... the possibilities are endless! NECA has since revealed another Keno figure, in Foot training gear, that will come in a two-pack with a Foot soldier. More news at 11:00... "Dream on, Dweeb!"
  10. It's Wednesday, and you know what that means: ToyFarce review! This week, we're having a look at the first two Universal Monsters Accessory sets from NECA, for Frankenstein and The Mummy. Continuing the NECA month, I had those accessory sets on my pile of unopened toys for a while, and it was time to set them free. They come with a cardboard background and end up being pretty great little dioramas. The Universal Monsters Frankenstein Accessory set comes with Dr. Frankenstein laboratory table, a laboratory cardboard background, a plastic towel to add to it, a piece of white cloth, an alternate bandaged head for the Frankenstein's monster and a flaming torch to scare it (Frankenstein's Monster figure not included). The box art on those accessory sets looks gorgeous, as usual with NECA. I had heard that the table cannot be undone once assembled, and that is very true, the pieces snap together and you'd need to break it in pieces if you want to store it back in the box. It's a pretty great looking table, though! The table and the laboratory background make for a decent diorama, and the extra accessories add nicely to your Frankenstein's Monster figure. The Mummy Accessory set is pretty great too, as it includes the long awaited sarcophagus, an Egyptian themed background, and a chest (The Mummy figure not included). When I got the Mummy figure, I kinda wished it came with a sarcophagus, since it had been teased on the pictures... Well, that's how you sell people an extra accessory set! The sarcophagus looks really great, with tons of details in the paint apps. The chest can open in order to store the smaller Egyptian chest that came with the Mummy figure (which hid a scroll). The Dracula Accessory set is already out (and on its way!), along with Carfax Abbey version of the Dracula figure (black and white). I'm looking forward to check those out too! More news at 11:00... It's alive... ALIIIIVE!
  11. It's Wednesday, and you know what that means: ToyFarce review! This week, we're having a look at the SDCC Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Samurai turtle 4-pack from NECA. Finally, the 4-pack we always dreamed of! The movie might have been terrible, but the toys are great! Ninja turtles dressed as Samurai, what more could you ask for? (apart from slightly better articulation...). The giant VHS box made its return for the third time, just like the first 2 SDCC movie 4-packs. It also comes with a big sleeve so you can see what's inside. The picture in the front is like the original VHS, but with figures. Shout out to YHS Podcast for getting their quote immortalized on the box! The Samurai turtles come packed with accessories: 4 extra head sculpts (one each, which work with previous figures too), a ton of extra hands, 4 wired soft goods robes, the turtles' weapons (katanas, sais, bo staff and nunchucks), 2 old swords, 4 masks, 3 scepters (ancient, damaged and homemade). The samurai helmets attach to the bandana knots in the back of their heads, which is great to have them stay put. The masks look great, as do the soft goods robes. The details on the figures are amazing. It's a fantastic set to display on your shelf. Comparison pics with the previous movie turtles. More news at 11:00... Cue *Tarzan Boy* from Baltimora... Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh!
  12. It's Wednesday and you know what that means: ToyFarce Review! This week, we're having a look at some Gargoyles ultimate action figures from NECA: Angela and the Steel Clan Robot. The Gargoyles line has to be one of my favorite lines these days, and those 2 new figures did not disappoint! They both come in pretty big boxes, since both figures have huge wings. The box art is amazing. Angela, who we met in the second season of the show, when Goliath, Elisa and Bronx arrived on Avalon, is the daughter of Goliath and Demona (even if, at first, Goliath kept insisting that the children are children of the whole clan and don't have parents). The figure comes with an extra face plate (angry), 2 extra pairs of hands, an egg and a baby version of herself (articulated too!). The figure is similar to the Demona figure (her mum!), in terms of articulation. She has great sculpt and paint. The usual main issue with those figures are the wings being way too wide, but I got a new shelf just for them to solve that. She has a bendy wire in her pony tail, but the wings are still a bit in the way, so she has to look a bit down so that the hair is on top of the winds (like Goliath), and cannot look up. The baby version is very cute, too, for a version of the character that appears for a few seconds during a flashback scene. The Steel Clan Robot is a BEAST. It's big and heavy, with a huge wing span as well (although the wings can be folded a bit to take less space). The Steel Clan Robot could be a great army builder, if you have the space. Having a line of those in the background would look pretty awesome. The Steel Clan Robot comes with 3 extra pairs of hands, 2 laser guns that can be attached on the forearm, and 3 fire effects to attach to his back and feet to make it look like he's flying. It's a beautiful figure, and I'm looking forward to the Xanatos version of it (red, armor version that is not a robot). If I had the space, I'd grab a couple more! Elisa Maza, Armored Xanatos and (regular) David Xanatos are starting to pop up in stores, so hopefully, a review of those should be there soon from yours truly. More news at 11:00... "We're not demons, we're gargoyles, and it's time you learned to respect that name!" - Angela
  13. It's Wednesday and you know what that means: ToyFarce review! This week, we're having a look at the Casey Jones as The Phantom figure from the Universal Monsters x TMNT from NECA. Another fantastic figure from that line, which will continue for a few more, as we learned at the NECA booth at San Diego Comic Con. Casey Jones wears a mask, the Phantom of the Opera wears a mask... another mash up that makes total sense! As usual, the packaging has an awesome illustration by Daniel Horne. I've seen someone online that put all the packaging art together and framed it, and it looked VERY cool. Maybe a print with all the art from the boxes could be a good idea, NECA? (*wink wink*). Casey Jones as the Phantom comes with 2 extra heads (broken mask and skull), 3 extra pairs of hands along another set wearing hockey gloves, a soft goods cloak, and 2 hockey sticks. The soft goods cloak has wires and can be posed nicely. The face with the broken mask has some gnarly details, with an open mouth missing teeth. It's definitely going to be the display one! The red hockey glove arm is a fun touch, this figure has an awesome design. A perfect fusion of the 2 characters. I wonder if Casey Jones can play the organ... The normal mask sculpt also kinda looks like the mask of Mick Thompson from SlipKnot, which is a good thing too! (NECA SlipKnot figures: CONFIRMED? By god, I would get them all in a heartbeat.) The next 2 in that line were revealed at San Diego Comic Con, and they are Leonardo as the Creature from the Black Lagoon, Raphael as the Wolfman. I cannot wait for not only the figures, but also the box art! More news at 11:00... Goongala-hahahaha! MWAHAHAHAHAA!
  14. Last week, tons of toy collectors discovered something that New Yorkers have been knowing all along: The New York City real estate prices are way too darn high! "The prices have been creeping up for a long time, and it has gotten out of hand!" said a long time NY resident. "Some of us can't even afford to rent a room in the sewers!". ToyFarce investigated. Last Thursday, NECA put their Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (Cartoon) Sewer Lair Living Room diorama up for pre-order on their website. The diorama itself seems to be massive, and according to the many fans that saw it in person at San Diego Comic Con last month, looks pretty amazing. The only issue collectors seem to have with it is the price: $299. The reason for it is unfortunately pretty simple: Living in New York City is really expensive. "The housing market in NYC is incredibly expensive at the moment, and selling a reproduction of the sewer lair, which is a real property, has to match that price." a NECA employee told ToyFarce. "If we priced it too low, it could have had a negative impact on the value of the real place. And that is the price just for one room! There's still the kitchen and Donatello's lab also coming later!" Are you going to pick up the NECA Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (Cartoon) Sewer Lair Living Room diorama? Or are you going to try to make your own/ 3D print one that will inevitably collapse under the weight of the street diorama the second you put it on top? Let us know in the comments! You can find all the infos about the NECA Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (Cartoon) Sewer Lair Living Room diorama here! More news at 11:00... How about that shelf real estate? I hear there's less and less space!
  15. "I'm happy they arrived so fast!", "Wow, these look so good!" - Those could have been the words from collectors popping up all over various NECA or TMNT facebook groups in the last few days. However, the unthinkable happened: Some orders were shipped in multiple packages (*audible gasp from the crowd*). Uncertainty! Panic! Betrayal! These are some of the emotions that took over collectors, as they posted their complaints all over social media. More than one package? Can you imagine?! "I was pretty stoked to get my package this early, since nobody posted pictures yet, so I could be one of the first to post pics and get all the likes!" said a collector from Connecticut. "But when I saw the size, I knew something was off. It couldn't possibly fit a pizza box!" After opening the package, the collector found out that something was indeed off: "Keno was missing from the package, so I did what any sane person would do - I went on social media and complained: Classic NECA BS! Of course they forgot something! I HAAAATE!". The post got a lot of comments and reactions, and soon, more would have the same issue. "I ordered 3 things and got only 2." said a collector from New York. "So I wrote a very angry post online, before even opening the figures I actually got. Later that day, I received the second package, but I decided to leave my post online, because a lot of people commented and reacted to it, it's kinda my best post now..." It was later revealed (and confirmed by NECA) that due to the size of the TMNT Secret of the Ooze Keno with scooter bundle, some orders were shipped in multiple packages, and we would just have to be patient. BONUS: A collector name Timothy M. (from the TMNT Party Wagon Facebook group) received his TMNT III 4-pack, which included 2 Capri Suns in the package! You hear that? Free juice! ToyFarce has since heard of many other collectors getting extra snacks in their packages, including one that got a full rotisserie chicken with it (picture included). ToyFarce is now crossing fingers for a full 7-course meal from NECA when the multiple packages of the 2-items SDCC order will arrive. More news at 11:00... 2 packages? The audacity! *ToyFarce News is parody news for laughs and not meant to be taken seriously!
