Right, that fig uses the new knees. But to my knowledge, Ultimate April has been released with the new knees too. I've seen some pics on ebay, and I believe I read they've been showing up at Walmarts too.
Someone please correct me if I'm wrong, though.
Walmart at 128th & L St. in Omaha, NE has the following NECA movie figures available:
Super Shredder, v.1 (movie poster box) - Qty 3
April O'Neil, v.1 knees - Qty 2
Casey and April Farm 2 pack - Qty 6
Thanks for the additional insights; it makes sense that I'll have another shot. That said, I was indeed trying to grab a spot as early as possible, as I accidentally missed a few preorders in 2020 and didn't want to repeat that mistake.
Appreciate that. I initially assumed they turned off pre-ordering sometime this morning, but then when I saw dukefett's post from this afternoon, it left me wondering if it became available again at some point throughout the day.
I don't know if it's the same for everyone, but my shipping cost was only $5. And it's not just $50 for the figure by itself. It's the figure and an assortment of other TMNT merch. Granted, it's unknown whether the other items will be hit or miss, but at least you're getting additional things.
Oh, I don't disagree with you. It's silly for them to charge separate shipping per fig when they'll all likely be put in the same box. But at least this is a resolution for those who know they're getting all four.
Fingers crossed that they do fix it for all the "singles" orders too.
It looks like GameStop added a bundle option to solve the combined shipping issue:
