Dude, Wizkids needs to be more generous in these gravity feed sets. 1 Super Rare on average is too little when there is 5 of them, and 50/50 chance at Chase when there are 4. That's dumb distribution and only spells GREED on wizkids' part.

Or greed on the part of the buyer... in a gravity feed you shouldn't be getting any dups. So buy a feed, then buy or trade for the singles you need. You wouldn't be complaining if it were a flat rarity scheme... in fact you may be complaining more.

Let me get this straight, you came to chastise him for complaining about a slightly different issue than the one you're complaining about here?

Who would complain about flat rarity? Who on earth?!
Who would be mad about needing to buy about 1.5 CTDs, instead of like 8?
Would it be someone who wants a big box of doubles(more like septuples) that have no value eating up space in their house until they give up and throw them out while lamenting the the memory that he paid 3$ each for them?
Would it be that guy?

Correct me if I'm wrong but in normal booster sets, an SR 1:3 packs, so 1:15 figures.
At the same rate there should be 1.6 SRs in a 24 Count display. That would be acceptable right?
That doesn't seem to be how it is though, since that would mean that each Case should have an average of 3.2. So if they were anal about rarity scheme each case should have at least 3, and occasionally a surprise 4th.
Is anyone getting 3 SRs in a case? How common is it? The rule seems to be 2.

Yeah, I'm rather annoyed by the very hard to get SRs. Has it ever been 1/24 for SRs before? My experience with the first set as 2 in a CTD or 1 and a chase in a CTD. I know there were some with only 1, but that seemed to be more the exception. MK had at last 2 SRs per CTD. I've not gotten any of the Yugioh sets though.
I would love a flat rarity scheme on these things. Even if that meant smaller sets. Or better yet, instead of having 3 sets this close together, do a full 5 figure set. I'm sure it all makes sense to WK, mostly to their bottom line, but it seems to be a quick way to start to estranged the customer base
Commons: 12
All 10, plus an extra Casey and an extra Leonardo.
Uncommons: 7
One of each, except no Shredder. :-/
Rares: 4
Splinter (eh), Alopex (eh), Karai (yay), & Rat King (woo!)
Super-rares: 1
Renet Tilly ("Vanishpectre").
Chases: 0
That's okay by me; I'm not chasing these guys.
Honestly pretty happy with this out of a single GF? I think I can trade or buy singles from here (I'd like two more Squirrelanoids, for one thing). Of course, if my one SR hadn't been the most-desired of the set, I might be singing a different tune.
I understand the frustration at the coalition, but this isn't too far off what I recall from the Yu-Gi-Oh sets (especially series 2 & 3)... So my expectations for a GF-only release may have already been kinda low.
Got a case, left still needing Rat King, Leo, and Slash for rares, Raph and Tilly for SRs. I got Graviturtle.
All in all, not bad. I'm always sad to see figures become "hot" purely because of metawangs like Tilly has become, but she's probably the last figure I wanted so I'm fine with her being the last one I get.
The Foot Ninjas are sexy.
The Toon Turtles look like balls.
I'm excited for the IDW Turtles, though. Very excited.

overall really happy with my chase and SR pulls. kinda wish I didn't pull 2 of the same rare twice eh I guess it's good to have trade fodder. twas a good turtle day ^_^
I think SR/Chase needs to be removed. Just go C/UC/R. 24 packs, 10 Commons, 8 Uncommons, 6 Rares. Would be B-E-A-utiful.
If they went C/U/R with 1 chase per case, I think that would be an acceptable compromise. Makes it easier to get the pieces for play but still has a money piece in play for people to "chase."
And with only 4 chases, 1 per case isn't unreasonable.

Didn't get a Fugitoid and no Rat King. Was looking forward to those.
Played a 400 pt game
Bebop
Rocksteady
Shredder
Chien Khan
Irma 25pt
3 Ninjas
All figures played well. Love that this set has some range figures. The Ninjas are great to edge up with side step and stealth. The willpower is also very effective.
Shredder possible exploding is very scary. Had to keep my distance.
Irma is well worth 25pts just for the perplex.
