I personaly have been trying to chase down the Shogun TMNT. I have a good number of them but I have some more to go. What figure / figures has everyone been personally chasing ?

I think you'll have quite a diffcult time hunting down Shonate*Did I spell that right?* I heard he's pretty rare >< I always wanted a MOC Leatherhead and I finially got one a few years back so I'm happy ^^

Oh that's awesome ^_^ Maybe you should check the Mirage auctions you might see it up there since I think he has everything. And I dont think hes auctioned that yet.

Edit: I got kinda bored o_O Umm here's a site with some if you dont have them already

Im not too worried right now, ive spent my money. Dont think i'll be adding anything for a little while. And expecially dont think I will be adding him. I havent seen it go for less then $150.00 MOC.

Yea, SHogun Triceraton is easily one of the rarest (if not the rarest) of the figs...so he'll always fetch a hefty price...

I've actually been wondering if a Gold Armor Donatello exists. Seems weird to have the other 3 Turtles with Gold armor variations but not Donatello. If he does exist I would like to get him. I would also like to have a loose Shogun Triceraton. I can't bring myself to open a carded one.

I saw a loose Shogun Triceraton with a couple weapons go for $27.00 in a small group lot. I didnt have money at the time or I would have tried to win it. I also tried to win it not to long ago. There was a group of 100, mostly the common figures you see. Some were broken and missing limbs but there he sat with all his chrome armor. I bid but the auction went to someone I believe lives in Japan for well over $200.00.

Hmmm...that does sound a bit strange...and now that you mention, I can't remember ever seeing one either...

I was trying to hunt down a Rat King and Ace Duck hat off both with pop-up display for the longest time to complete my pop-up collection, and finally a couple months ago I did. Right now I don't have extra money to buy figures, but I'd like to get Hot Spot, since he kinda goes with the Scratch. The Shogun set is a nice set and very rare, good luck on that. I have none myself. Also, the figures with gold coins in the package are extremely rare.

I'm pretty sure Gold don exists. I know I have gold raph and leo from when I was a kid, guess i got lucky with those. Then I got another gold and silver shogun leo moc for like $5 each on eBay a while ago.

I think the most sought after isn't shogun triceraton but Warrior Rahzar with fur. I have never EVER freaking seen that thing.

Does that figure even exist?...i mean, i've seen images of it numerouse times but its the same one and it's always him standing loose, with no weapons I think...i've never seen a carded version...I though it was just one of the figus that didnt make it to production....

I would say I'm chaisin' the 1988 collection. I have three figures from it so far. I would like to complete it though cuz the first figures that came out were really great and nicely sculpted.

I almost have a complete moc/mib 1988 release wave. I'm missing maybe shredder foot soldier and rocksteady or bebop. I don't really know what I'm missing I actually could have it all, it's all packed away in the basement. Have most of the vehicles too mib cept for the van. I think the official site's 1988 wave is off because the blimp and technodrome didn't come out till 89 or 90 from what I understand. (Which makes sense as starting off with a huge playset like the technodrome would have been a bad marketing decision if the entire line flopped, TMNT was pretty high risk at the time, that's why the up and comer playmates took it because this was their very first action figure line, before it was all girls dolls).

Of course I don't count packing variants, though someday maybe I will.

Can someone clear this up, which came first? The fan order form figures, the pop up display (i belive that was last), or just the regular figures without anything? Are all fan order figures soft heads? Are there regular non fan order figures with soft heads?

Someone please clear that up for me.

Yeah... There are a handful of Warrior Rahzar's with fur but they only produced a few of him for toy shows and due to either the lack of demand or the production costs for him, he never was massively produced. So finding one of the display ones would be the ultimate to add to an action figure collection...

And there is no carded version or accessories for him.

Well thats what I always thought...cuz I've just seen him standing there with no card/accessories...that would definately be a sweet find to get one
