That's the greatest lmfao

Bc when you charge 7 grand for something that at most would be 20 bucks shipped, it just cuts too close to your profit margin.

Lame.

I got excited, too. There are a few main characters, but it would sell me if it also included the original 10.

One of the figures has just gone for £23 incomplete, another has gone for £200 carded. I have two of them in that lot and one of them is complete and a few people have messaged me about it. Other than that I really don't know, I've sold a lot of Biker Mice lately and they never normally go for much so when I put this one up for £10, I figured that's what I'd get. I'm not giving my hopes up though, things like this are usually too good to be true.

Isn't that about what the sketched #30 issues go for, if not more?

HotJuicyBurgers · 06-28-2012, 08:33 AM

But why does a sketched 30 go for 130? The issue itself can be had for 10 dollars still, and a peter laird headsketch isn't exactly worth 120 dollars.

*DonatelloFan* · 06-28-2012, 08:38 AM

That, I don't know. I do remember when #30 was released, you could buy them direct for $10 I think, or maybe $20, I forgot. And if you were one of the first to order, you would either get a sketch by Eric Talbot, Peter Laird, I think Dan Berger, or Jim Lawson. And a few, or maybe one, I'm not sure, got real lucky, and got an issue with a sketch from everyone.

I'm sure someone much more knowledgeable will elaborate.

*pannoni1* · 06-28-2012, 11:45 AM

A nearly complete OT collection of VHS tapes (46 in all), and is a great thing to own in terms of nostalgia and box art, particularly for the tougher volumes in the series (Punk Frogs, The Incredible Shrinking Turtles, The Four Musketurtles, Season 7 and 8 episodes). At a starting bid of just over $1.50 a tape, it's a reasonable buy. All that's missing is the Hi-C "Funny They Shrunk Michelangelo" and the TV Teddy variant of "Return of the Turtleoid". And this set originally retailed for a grand total of $687, but it can be yours on Turtle Steal of the Week for only $70 dollars!

employee award?

Looks like someone took a don, flushed it down the toilet, dragged it behind a car, then superglued it to a base.

LOL...that is fugly. You're right. It looks like something I would have made in middle school shop class.

Doomsword · 06-28-2012, 07:48 PM

Actually it looks just like a boxed 5th Anniversary Leo, but just in really bad shape.

That's exactly what it looks like - it has the Leo body and the Don head. How strange.

Doomsword · 06-28-2012, 08:47 PM

Yeah I'm not sure why they used a Don style head for the 5th Anniversary boxed Leo. I guess because he looks more menacing that way?

***First of Two Latin Kings*** · 06-28-2012, 08:54 PM

I've always wondered about that too.

This statue looks totally fake to me.
Like somebody just did made a custom toy with swaped heads and mounted it poorly on a wooden base.

Editing because I'm an idiot.
