Not so much a "steal", but more a good bargain:
The pictured technodrome looks like its missing a few pieces but the actual technodrome shipped with all of them except for firing platform and Krang's escape hatch.

EDIT: Just noticed this thread doesn't require steals to be from ebay... So I'll mention finding 11" Krang's Android Body at a video store a few months ago for $5 with the radar antanna on top firmly attached... unfortunately missing the brain itself, but still a great deal (i think.)

Here's my recent "steal" that I'm quite happy with, although not a toy exactly:

It's hard to tell because of the unmatching background it's pictured with in the auction, but it's from the very first episode of the original cartoon.

I stopped watching the show by then. Alias really went down hill after season 3.

Sorry dude. *comfort*
I know how you feel. You search my name and you get a damn golf course in Texas...TEXAS!

You could always change your name or go by a stage name, but I wouldn't if I were you. Vaughn Michael sounds really cool.

Question. Why is Venus wearing shorts?

*Powder* · 06-21-2009, 09:00 PM

I snagged king lionheart, 88' soft head shredder, cheapskate, toon raph, slice and dice shredder, & dr. el elephant for 23 bucks.. all out of boxes but with about half of the accersories per character. I KNOW thats a decent find.

I happened to pick up this miniature for 25 cents at my local thrift store.

Thanks for telling me. I didn't realize there was a recent steals thread.

GameMachineJames · 11-13-2012, 02:06 PM

Classics Michelangelo for $5 shipped.

He was missing his Sewer Lid/Base though... But had both weapons.

Firstly, sorry if this is the wrong forum

I've been collecting Ninja Turtles for about a year now, I started with the 4 original turtles, got them complete, then bought the turtle van, and found a few others here and there.

Then last weekend I was on Kijiji and this guy had 81 figures and a ton of vehicles for $650, so I jumped on it. Every figure was complete except for like 3 accessories. I was in heaven! Even the vehicles were all mostly complete. The Foot Cruiser, technodrome, and turtlecycle were complete, they were the only ones I really cared about, as I pretty much just wanna collect the characters and vehicles from the first two seasons. Figured I could trade the rest for other vehicles I needed

The only pics I got so far were of the actual item listing, but check it out.

There was a ton more I got, that wasn't pictured, big bag of accessories, card backs, parts of vehicle packaging, paper work, unused sticker sheets.

whitefox360 · 05-12-2013, 12:03 PM

Congrats, dude. That is pretty awesome.

*DVD* · 05-12-2013, 12:21 PM

A lifetimes collection in one hit.
At $650, that's pretty cool.

astig · 05-12-2013, 01:44 PM

Congratulations! that is a pretty sweet haul!

Nameless · 05-12-2013, 02:14 PM

very nice. Nothing too rare, but defiantly the best way to start a collection is to get your hand on lot like this cause you sure pay a lot less then buying each figure complete individually. Heck a complete Technodrome normally sells for around 100$ that i see.
