My white whale is an original splash page from Mirage TMNT #7, either the splash where they encounter Splinter inside the TCRI building, or the splash where they end up (spoiler alert) in April's bathtub.

thanks! yeah i always get a chuckle when i think back on that.
i loved them too, until my sticker search breakdown.

you were able to get that original Mirage page?

No, I was just saying those pages are the top of my want list currently.

At one point I had an uncut set of those pie stickers...I forget where I got them from? Not the pies, that's for sure.

what piece of tmnt merchandise would I consider a white whale? As in the thing I must have even if it kills me? that would be super accurate TMNT movie figures. But Neca already gave us those in their 1/4 scale line along with the potential to see those in 7" scale this year so I guess that means the chase is over? I guess the Neca b/w comic book figures would be a distant second place contender, but since I have the full color turtles, April, mousers and the foot ninja, buying those turtles now would un-homogenize the rest of the group since they are the only figures in that collection that are in stark b/w...so its really no loss to me if I can't find those....even if they are rereleased

ah! i also have a few pages of Mirage i'd love to own,
but think i'd just be better off drawing my own versions of.

hope you can find them one day.

a year or more ago i found hologram versions of that very same sticker art for sale.
i decided to pass on it due to the realization of just how poorly they all were drawn.
