I'll be getting it, if I remember, I'll post the list, but no pics, 'cause I can't do that, I don't have a way. I always get the Toyfare, it's in my subscription box, at my local comicstore.

Can anyone tell me which issue it was they featured the TMNT reissues? With all the TMNT news they're starting to cover makes me want to start picking up the magazine again.

I forgot all about Sandstorm. I bet he was someone somewhere's favorite toy.

He was one of my favorite toys back in the day. He used to cruise around in the millenium falcon with Sgt. Slaughter, Walkabout, That pickle shaped guy, that badguy from Captain Power and fight planets of Wampas and Marshmellow Puft men.

Good times... Until Matt stole my King Lionheart. Son of a... I know you took it Matt. I know you did. Just give it back and all will be forgiven.

Just read the scans.

I like how they mention that not all the figures had their time to shine, and the examples they list are Dirtbag and Muckman, some of the only figures on the list to actually have a cartoon episode.

I'm pretty sure I have a Shogun Triceraton in the big tub of loose figures in my parents' garage. Is he really that rare? I haven't touched my figures since childhood. If he fetches high prices, maybe I could put him up on eBay.

he is one of the more rare (Definately in the top 10 if not top 5). Although, with the economy what it is...now would not be the time tosell him IMO.

I suppose I'll hold off on it either way. When things start to pick back up I'll have to start rummaging through my old toys.

is it just me or does almost every one of those extra mutants have a pant leg shorn off to reveal their furry extremity underneath?

yeah you could probably pull 50+ for a losse one. Hell, I just watched a loose scratch go over 100 bucks.
