Giant Donatello (1989) No belt, no staff

[***First of Two Latin Kings***]

I saw one on e-bay with a staff and needed just the staff to complete the one I already had. If anyone is interested in buying the one with no belt or staff off of me, I will sell it SUPER cheap. PM me with offers.

[***First of Two Latin Kings***]

This figure has a belt now (I made it myself). If anyone wants to take a chance on it, PM me. If not I will post pictures if it hasn't sold when I finally purchase a digital camera.

[***First of Two Latin Kings***]

I've decided to go into business making belts for giant TMNT figures (the 1989 ones). I'll post pictures when I can to either custom toys/collectibles or fan art discussion. There will also be a thread here for those of you who want to order from me.

[***First of Two Latin Kings***]

I will have Raph and Leo from this set available soon.

[Whitewolf89]

I'M interested! Will PM you soon, once I check my finances. What sort of payment-options do you accept? I'm clueless about how to use PayPal, but I can do a money order-type thing, if you'll accept that. Just let me know, k?

I prefer PayPal but can do a money order if necessary. Def get a hold of me in PM. My dad told me that Leo and Raph arrived in the mail today and I've already made belts for them which will be added when I get home. Let me know what you are looking to buy and what your price range is. I'd like to get $20 shipped for each one.

Well, if you'd prefer PayPal, I can try to figure it out. I just suggested the money order thing 'cause that what's easiest for ME, sending money-wise. No biggie either way; I'm flexible.

And I will.

And that's good news about the figs of Leo and Raph. Sounds like they'll look cool!

Again, I will. As to the price-range $20.00 each sounds reasonable to me. Soon as I get the money (and PayPal figured out (shouldn't be THAT hard, should it? (And WHY my sis had to let her account with 'em go, is beyond me. SHE could've helped me with that! Oh, well........)), I'll send it our way.

Hmmmm, WAIT a sec! I'm not sure that I even HAVE a PayPal account! Have to check that out..........

PM ya soon, bro!

[***First of Two Latin Kings***]

The belts are all finished and I'm hoping to post pictures tomorrow. At this point these are for sale and if they don't sell via these forums Raph will probably go on e-bay and I will probably just keep the other two. Looking forward to posting pictures of my work.

Tomorrow is now today:

[***First of Two Latin Kings***]

I am hoping to score more of these soon even though there has been no interest whatsoever thus far.

I am currently working on two more Michaelangelo belts and another Raphael variant...

Hey, I said that I was interested, bro! I just don't have the MONEY for them yet, and it's kinda HARD to send you somethin' that I don't cuurrently HAVE!

Be PATIENT with me for a bit longer, okay? Social Security never gets in a hurry to send you back-pay money that they owe you, but it SHOULDN'T be TOO much longer before I get that sandblasted check from 'em.

PLUS which, I'm still working on the PayPal thing.

I am currently working on two more Michaelangelo belts and another Raphael variant...
Cool! Can't wait to see them, and the pic that you posted above REALLY looks great! To the point that I really, really, REALLY WANT these now! Will you take $25.00 a piece for them, plauys shipping (however much that THAT might be)? I'll PM you soon. Promise.

[***First of Two Latin Kings***]

I will take $25 a piece for them INCLUDING shipping. ;)

And don't get upset that I am offering these to others as well! There will be plenty to go around, I promise. I just ordered more giants, they should be in the mail soon.

Edit: Donatello has sold but I have another one coming in the mail, can sell it with the original belt OR a homemade one if that is one of the ones you are interested in, WhiteWolf. Let me know.

[Whitewolf89]

I will take $25 a piece for them INCLUDING shipping. ;)
Okay, THAT's doable. As soon as I get the money, I'll get it to you. Maybe not all at once, but I DO want ALL of them. INCLUDING Mikey, IF there's one out there.


And don't get upset that I am offering these to others as well! There will be plenty to go around, I promise. I just ordered more giants, they should be in the mail soon.
Oh! Okay, I didn't know that. I guess I just assumed (never, EVER assume anything) that ONE of each was all lthat you had. My bad.:toops:

*sighs* And sorry if I came across as sounding upset or "mad" in my last post, bro, but my youngest nephew (who's 9) has been suffering from a major, MAJOR case of "Bratitis" lately, and he's about to drive ME (to say NOTHING of his poor dad, my bro, Bobby!) up the proverbial WALL! To the point that I've been SERIOUSLY tempted to STRANGLE the little brat! So IF I took my tension and ill-temper out on you (OR anyone ELSE around here), I sincerely, profusely apologize

Edit: Donatello has sold but I have another one coming in the mail, can sell it with the original belt OR a homemade one if that is one of the ones you are interested in, WhiteWolf. Let me know.
That's cool, and either would be fine (I'd love to have BOTH versions, but if I can only have ONE, I'd like the one that YOU made, bro)

And I know that they don't (probably) come with their individual weapons, but Donnie's would be easy to make myself, once I get him. Just a dowel, the right diameter (sp?), cut to the right length, and wrapped with like white cloth athletic tape would probably work, and I think that I can manage THAT myself.

Still workin' on the "figurin' out the PayPal" thing, but I'll PM you soon, either way.

What are you making the belts out of? It looks like colored electrical tape to me....

Nope, construction paper, coated with this:

You sayin' they look bad or something, MS?

Whitewolf-- if there is something SPECIFIC you want-- let me know (only one strap, no straps, a color other than black, colored letters, etc) and I will try to make it happen for you. DON'T send me any money until I have these in my hands and have finished belts for them and they are ready to ship. I will most likely be keeping the original belts from the three I bought off of e-bay recently unless I resell them on e-bay (although I've already sold one with a homemade belt on there and will probably sell another before the day is done).

I'm saying it looks like colored electrical tape, that is why I asked what you use.

You really got to stop reading more into things then you do, you will give yourself a heart attack.

Okay.

Hmmm, lemmee see now: I think just a plain brown belt, with ONE shoulder strap (for his bo), and the initial colored the color it is on the show will be fine with me.

As for sending you the money BEFORE you get the figs, don't worry; I won't. It's easier that way on both of us. (PLUS which, I STILL don't have that sandblasted CHECK back yet, or PayPal figured out! (I'll get it figured out of it KILLS me, though!:tlol::twink: )) My late dad worked for the U.S. Postal Service and he told me TO never PAY for something like that before the seller took delivery first. And as you can guess, I ALWAYS listened to my dad.:twink:

Anyway, talk at ya soon, bro!

[***First of Two Latin Kings***]

Okay.

Well...you're either asking a lot or I'm confused by what you are asking! The original belts didn't have holders for the weapons, I SUPPOSE I could make some. Problem is that I don't have a complete set of these myself to use as templates. I had Don and Mike with weapons, but they've since sold. So when you say " a strap for his bo," I'm not quite sure what you mean. I CAN make you brown belts for all four turtles with initials the colors of their masks, that's no problem. I can also only do one strap for Leo (and Don) if you wish-- but you need to tell me WHICH SHOULDER you want the strap to go over. So be very specific about what you want. I can't promise you weapon holders but that's an interesting idea that I may have to consider at some point.

*palms face in aggrevated disgust at herself* :tmad::tgrumble:Wolfie, you idiot! Couldn't make it clearer for him, could you?! Dim-brained Mouse that you are.........:trolleye::toops:

*sighs* I think I must have confused you, bro, but then again, I was in a bit of a hurry (my library comp-use time was running out on me) when I typed all that.

Anyway, I just want the belt with the ONE shoulder strap, and I can figure out how to fix his boin it (them) myself ONCE I get him. As for the complete sets of weapons for the other guys (provided I can find some/rig some up), I can do the SAME with once I get them, too. So don't worry about the weapons, okay? I'LL handle THAT from MY end, once I get the figs.

As to the guys' belts, now that I've thought about it, can you do plain brown WAIST-belts for all of them, with SILVER-colored buckles and initials in their individual colors? Or would that be TOO much? Whatever's easiest on YOU, and for YOu to, is fine with me, bro. I'm NOT that hard to please. Heh, My FAMILY could tell you THAT!!!:twink:

As to the shoulder-belts for Leo and Donnie, I think one for each one, but with LEO's over his RIGHT shoulder, and DONNIE'S over his LEFT one. How's that?

*sighs again* Again, sorry I was so confusing earlier, bro, but, like I said, I was in a bit of a hurry, PLUS which, I was developing something of a headache, too. (I think I'm coming DOWN with something, PLUS which it's the time of year that starts driving my poor sinuses REALLY crazy! (Gads, I hate Fall sometimes.....!)) So I kinda goofed up. I'll try to be clearer, promise.

Til NEXT time........!!!

[***First of Two Latin Kings***]

Okay. That's much better. The silver belt buckles might be a bit much. Maybe you could draw and scan what exactly you're looking for? It might not help though, silver belt buckles might prove too much trouble... :tlol:

I'mma get started on these real soon, I'll send pics when I can (I have another lot of turtles coming in the mail soon). Any idea how soon you'll have that SS check?

[Whitewolf89]

Cool.

And you know, where the buckles being SILVER are concerned, you're right. That WOULD be a bit harder on you, so Just make the buckle in Donnie's color, and the OTHER guys' buckle in THEIR colors. Woukld THAT be easier for you? If it would be, just go that way/

Orrrr, just make them the same color as the belts themselves, like they are on the figs in your picture of them. Just whichever is easiest on YOU, bro, is fine with me. I'm not hard to please, as I said earlier.

I'mma get started on these real soon, I'll send pics when I can (I have another lot of turtles coming in the mail soon). Any idea how soon you'll have that SS check?
Again, cool, to both of those. Looking forward to seeing the pics.:twink:

As to when I'll get the check, I'm not sure. They told us that if could be as little as 30 days (and it's BEEN almost that already), OR, if Social Security wanted to be contrary, it could be as much as 60 days. But given that THEY were the ones who goofed UP when they held the money OUT of my check in the FIRST place, you'd think that they'd give it BACK to me as soon as POSSIBLE, but that's the GOVERNMENT for you. If they get your money, and they weren't SUPPOSED to, they NEVER get in a hurry to send it BACK you.:tmad::tgrumble::tmad::tgrumble:

But it SHOULD be soon. I'll PM you and let you know when I DO get it. Promise.

STILL workin' on figurin' out how PayPal works, so bear with me, okay?

[***First of Two Latin Kings***]

Okay. I'm going to have Don, Leo, and Raph soon to make belts for like you wanted, Mike I will buy on e-bay when I can afford him. Mike will PROBABLY be the only one with an accessory/weapon unless you want to pay more. The weapons aren't impossible to find but they make things a bit more costly.

Cool.

Really? Hmmm, well, a weapon for Donnie, I'm too not worried about, 'cause, like I mentioned earlier, I can PROBABLY make a bo-staff for HIM myself, once I get him.

As for Leo and Raph's weapons, I'd LOVE to HAVE them (not necesary; I REALLY just want to get the figs in my hot l'il paws for now, and I'd worry about theirt weapons later), but just HOW much MORE are we TALKING here? I wouldn't mind PAYING a bit MORE to get THEIR weapons, too, but THESE aren't the ONLY things that I want to get with the money from that SS reimbursement check. (I want to get our TV programming back, as we have NO TV at ALL at home right now! NONE!!!:tcry: (had a SEVERE falling our with Dish Network, so we dumped them when my contract with them ran out recently), for one, plus a few OTHER thing) So I MIGHT have to forego THEIR weapons til later, IF you could get them, and sell them to me separately.

Just let me know about this, okay? I figured it out, and I THINK it's a bit OVER 30 days since I talked to that SS gal about my reimbursement check, so I SHOULD be getting it VERY soon. (Be just MY luck, though, that they'll take 60 days to send it to me! Yeah, MY luck runs about the same and Raph and his bro's does.)

[***First of Two Latin Kings***]

Well the weapons aren't going to run you TOO much more. I've already got one of Raph's sai on order. I'll order Leo's sword and Mike's 'chuks when I have the money to do so.

As far as silver buckles go, my silver paint isn't working AT ALL so that's not happening. Did you say you wanted COLORED letters? That would actually be better for me if that's the case. I'm going to get started on these ASAP. I have to buy three more figures just to complete Raph, Leo, and Mike so that they'll have weapons--but I can resell the figures and make some of the money back on that end. I'm thinking I can do a complete set WITH weapons (except Don's) for $130 shipped.

Okay, that sounds fine. Gives me more time to get the money all together.

Really? Well, THAT doesn't surprise me much. You would not BELIEVE the grief that my markers give me at times when I'm trying to color one of my pics, so you have my complete and total sympathy on THAT issue, bro.

And that's what I said earlier, CJJ; just do what's easiest on YOU. The ONLY reaon that I mentioned the SILVER buckles is because that's what the guys in the OT have, but it's no big thing to me if the figs DON'T have silver buckle. Just what;s easiest for YOU to do; I can't stress THAT enough, as YOU'RE then one making the belts and buckles, not me.:twink:

And that's good to know. Like I said, it will give me MORE time to get the money together, because, believe it or not, I STILL haven't gotten that danged CHECK yet (but you know our dear government when THEY owe YOU money; they DON'T get in ANY hurry whatsoever to get it BACK to you!). (AND get stinkin' PayPal figure out (STILL haven't gotten that DONE yet, silly, lazy me)

And my mom talked to my sis Terry yesterday, and SHE said that it HAD been 30 days already, but I don't know if the Social Security office meant 30 (or maybe 60) business days, or just 30-to-60 days PERIOD (the 60 days being the LONGEST time that the SS klady said that it would take them to get it to us (mainly me)). I'M think that she meant 30 BUSINESS days, but who knows. Still, I'll get the money TO you just as soon as things come together, bro. Promise.:twink:

[***First of Two Latin Kings***]

Go ahead and PM me. I have several ideas that might solve ALL of our problems.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v187/acgvettech/SANY0064.jpg

I would HIGHLY recommend that you change your mind about the straps. I'm happy to do them but I think the belts would look better WITHOUT them. You're paying, it's up to you. If I get done with this project and you DON'T pay within a reasonable amount of time (which I'm going to give you) these will hit e-bay.

I HAVE decided to do weapons holders for these belts and I'm already thinking about how I'm going to go about it. I don't anticipate it being all that difficult except maybe in the case of Leo, as the scabbards will have to be good and strong to be able to hold his katanas.

Please remember that Raph was the ONLY turtle from this series to come with TWO accessories. I've already hunted down (and purchased) one of Raphael's sai, and I have my eye on another one. I know of two loose Leonardo Giants out there that have katanas, so those shouldn't be a problem either-- the same with Mike's 'chuks. Don's action figure never had a holder for more than one bo, and he usually only carried ONE in the cartoon-- so I'll probably keep him that way. Raph's belt is the only one that has given me any problems thus far, I can't seem to get the letter right. I'm going to keep at it though, as I'm closer to completing him than any of the others.

Rocksteady now gone.

Holsters would be rad. I'd like to see how that turns out.

Okay. What do you want my to PUT in my PM? My mailing address, or what? I need to know that, okay?

THESE look cool! I kinda like the way you did Leo's gear better, though. At least where he and Donnie's are concerned, anyway.

I would HIGHLY recommend that you change your mind about the straps. I'm happy to do them but I think the belts would look better WITHOUT them. You're paying, it's up to you. If I get done with this project and you DON'T pay within a reasonable amount of time (which I'm going to give you) these will hit e-bay.
Come to think of it, you're right. And while I may be the one PAYING for these, YOU'RE the one who's doing all the hard work on these, so, like I've said, just do whatever's easiest on YOU, and THAT will be MORE than fine with ME, my dear friend.

Btw, what's a reasonable amount of time to you? Sad to say, I HAVEN'T gotten that sandblasted CHECK from SS yet (which, in a way, is fine with ME, because the MORE months that they DON'T put that $100.00 that they deducted off my monthly check in the FIRST place, the BIGGER that that refund check will be! Which is just FINE with me. The MORE money, the better! *rubs hands greedily*

I HAVE decided to do weapons holders for these belts and I'm already thinking about how I'm going to go about it. I don't anticipate it being all that difficult except maybe in the case of Leo, as the scabbards will have to be good and strong to be able to hold his katanas.
Cool. That would be great!

And yeah, probably so. Scabbards WOULD probably be the very devil TO make (or figure out HOW to, anyway!), which is why I was glad that the figs of 2K3 Leo already HAD them included!

Really? Wow. Never KNEW that. But I guess I never really paid THAT much attention to them, either. (Then again, I never, EVER, FOUND/SAW these at my local Walmart, so I guess that that's understandable.)

And that's all good. Can't wait to get the money so you can send these to me, and I can finally GET them!

And bro, I am so, SO sorry for NOT replying to this post sooner, but RL's been being really, REALLY means and nasty to me and mine lately. To the point that MOST of my online time hads been spent looking up stuff online for my mom, bro, Bobby, and sis, Penny (who hasn't been in the shape of mind to do anything since her mother-in-law, Betty, has been suffering with cancer, and we just LOST her to in on November 1st. Consequently, she (my sis) and her hubby, Kenny, aren't doing all that well emotionally since then, and the rest of us have been occupied trying to be there for them...ME, included. Which, as I said, is WHY I had replied to you lately. Life's been nuts, as I said. Hopefully, things will calm down a bit now, though, so I can concentrate on stuff here.

Gonna bump this back up for the time being...

Ooooooo, I will be SO sandblasted GLAD when those Social Security nitwits get off their butts and send me that check!!!

Meantime, short of you accepting a money order for these, I have DEFINITELY got to get off MY tush and get PayPal figured out! (OR get an account with 'em IF I DON'T ALREADY have one!!!)

Thankies for being so PATIENT with me on this, bro. I appreciate it. More than you know.

[***First of Two Latin Kings***]

Someone wants to buy the ones with the colored belts...but don't worry. There will be more of these...

See my private message. If he doesn't come through, their yours.

Really? That's cool, all the way around.:tgrin:

See my private message. If he doesn't come through, their yours.
Okay. I just got it, so I'm off to check it out.

And I ain't selfish. If the other guy DOES come through, that's cool. I'm the patient type...ESPECIALLY when it come to TMNT stuff that I want.:twink:

At this point all I have sold are the standard "black belts." The one with the sheaths/scabbards isn't doing ANYTHING on e-bay, nor did the three with colored belts so I still HAVE those four.

:tconfuse:Oh, really? Huh. Wonder why.:tconfuse: They all look MAGE-cool to me.

Hmmmm, maybe it's because TMNT collectors (like the ones that bought your black-belt ones in e-bay) prefer NON-customized stuff TO the ones you customized (like the Leo on with the sheaths/scabbards (which I happen to think are WAY past cool, btw)), because the NON-customzed ones are more like they are out of the box.

Just a bit of a thought on my part there.

And btw, I got a PayPal account the other day, and I think that all I have to do now is confirm my e-mail addy as authentic, and THEN figure out how to add money to it. They accept Money Pak things from WalMart, as far as ADDING funds goes, so THAT's probably the way that I'll do it, once I DO get that friggin', sandblasted check.

Be patient with em on that, okay, bro? I can't send the money to you if I don't have it, and so waiting on SS to get THEIR butts in gear and SEND it to me is as much murder on ME as it is on YOU.:twink:

[***First of Two Latin Kings***]

Do you have an update for me, WhiteWolf?

[***First of Two Latin Kings***]

WhiteWolf?

[Whitewolf89]

Do you have an update for me, WhiteWolf?
Same old, same, old. Still haven't gotten the check, bro, sorry.

We went and checked on the progress of things the other day, though, and they're still working on it, so it SHOULD be coming any time now, hopefully. The lady that we talked said that IF we didn't get it by the first of next week, to call here and we'd get ahold of the Social Security office and see what the problem was.

And I'm SO sorry that I didn't get back to you when you posted this, bro, but I was SICK aand flat on my back all last week, and most of THIS week. Strep throat, I think. Got it from my youngest nephew, Noah. Drat him.

Anyway, I'll try to keep you posted on stuff. Sorry about last week.

Bumping this back up, I may do more of these in the near future. Or you can just order the belts the way TheHeroTurtle has done.
