Looks ugly, and I've never seen anything like it before.

Ohhhhhhh

They released a bunch of those back in the day. One for each Turtle and a fifth overall guide, I believe.

They're basically drawings of various martial arts positions with a few tips and what-not, aimmed mostly at kids.

I wouldn't recommend buying them, honestly.

I've heard about those, but I've never seen one with my own eyes. I still want all of them T_T

There's six of these total..with the sixth called "Turtles Teach karate". Eastman and Laird actually did the cover to the first issue, but the Solson guys inked it terribly much to Eastman and Laird's dissappointment. They couldn't even spell Raphael right. I think these guys and Mirage had a falling out.

Yeah I skipped these, I had the other manual they did already anyways. I find it funny though that these aren't featured on the official site at all. Their either embarrassed that they were printed are playing it off like they weren't because they weren't done under Mirage.

You want these I suggest getting them here

Their way cheap, also the grade doesn't mean squat cause I bought stuff from Very fine to near mint and all them were near mint.
