NECA's Ultimate Sesame Street Action Figures

[The Count]

Well... By "Con Exclusives", the next major convention on the horizon could be San Diego Comic Con International in late July, but I don't know if that's the one NECA considers the specific con they're trying to hype. If that's the case, we would have had both Super Grover and Big Bird released by then, so maybe a repainted Bluebird of Happiness Big Bird variant as an exclusive? I'd rather it be a new character and letter/number to add, and I'd rather that be new additions shown/announced as coming in the future to keep growing the line especially since there's enough time between Big Bird and Oscar The Grouch for another release this year.

or maybe the first appearance of Orange Oscar???

Or maybe Grover and Mr. Johnson 2-Pack.


Although Original Orange-Furred Oscar could lend itself to being customized into Osvaldo, which might make said purchase worthwhile for me since I already have Palisades' version.

The con exclusives going on sale tomorrow are a TMNT 2012 black and white box set, and batman figure, and another figure if those kids un 80s Halloween costumes. Nothing Muppet or Sesame Street.

 

[The Count]

Thanks for the news MWoO, didn't really expect any exclusives, I'm hoping more in the way of new figure announcements in the future.

Looks like a pre-order drops tomorrow. Could be Super Grover if Target's exclusivity window has ended, but it seems early for that (at least compared to Count). Could be Oscar.

Still waiting for Super Grover to become available on BBTS. And since the TMNTxUsagi Yojimbo, Universal Monsters, and Art the Clown Bloody Splattered version figures are listed there as pre-orders, then it wouldn't be that much of a surprise to find Super Grover there tomorrow. Perhaps he'll be listed in this week's email with the New Arrivals/Pre-Orders. If it ends up as a pre-order for Oscar on the other hand, that wouldn't be too surprising either since Big Bird's been up for pre-order since January of this year and he won't arrive until June/July, so a similar wait for the main grouch would fall in line too.

Looks like the listing is for Super Grover. NECA just put it up on their site so I expect we will see him start popping up on other sites like Count before.

Just placed my pre-order for Super Grover through BBTS, it ended up costing the same amount in both price and shipping as the Ultimate Sesame Volume 3 Count von Count figure. It says that Super Grover is expected to ship in May, this'll give me the waiting experience needed for next month in placing the pre-order purchase for Big Bird.
