**WILL pay $500.00 for a NM/Mint set**
Looking for the original release of the four guys sealed. The original release is the four guys in a clear plastic baggie that is stapled to a Dark Horse card. Please see pic below. Please notice the "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles #142" sticker. I am looking for a set in similar condition as the one pictured. I would like a set that still has the sticker present. Pm or post if you have em if you have em in said condition. Thanks!

I did but I havent bitten the bullet yet because Im waiting for some last minute money to come in. In the mean time its always good to keep your options open. I am a stickler for condition and I just want to be sure Im getting the most for my money as its going to be a good amount.

I was digging through some boxes and found the set you are looking for. Not in as nice is shape as your picture but still sealed and has the sticker. If interested, PM me.

Not exactly what I was looking for condition wise but thanx for the offer!
Update: I would be willing to purchase a set in NM/Mint shape for $500.00
This will be the last price bump as $500 is pretty insane for lead figures!

Thanks dude! However those are not the original baggie release and therefore not what I am looking for. The link is to a carded version which is actually the second release.

Looks like this is what you have been looking for. Good Luck.
Edit: I forgot you wanted Mint, or NM, either way I posted this so in case you missed it you can check it out and bid if you wanted it.

It is. Just seen that this morning. Thanks much :tgrin: I wonder if the large creases could be pressed out like they do with comic books.........hmmmmm
Side note- God I love this forum.....everyone is always looking to help each other out. We take care of our own :)

Yeah, I have seen your post since I started posting here, so instantly you were the first thing that came to mind. IDK if they can be pressed out but maybe you should pull the trigger on it just in case a nm/mint one never comes up for sale. You could always sell this one later and "upgrade"
Good luck!

Yea, I really don't think so since that's cardboard and not paper (like in comics). Those creases are probably there to stay. But I know you've been itching for one for a long time now...

Danny is right. Those wouldn't iron out because of the layering technique they use for card stock. When there is a crease, the top paper layer separates from the inner card core, which can't be repaired through pressing.

Thanks bro, I already tracked em down. Maybe someone else who sees this needs them?
^ Thanks much man!
I am actually in the process of working out a deal with the first person that contacted me. As others know I am on a first come bases as I am not trying to having a bidding war. I deal fair and to the point. No other offers will be took as of now but I do appreacte them greatly. If I have yet to respond to you I will get back to you if this deal does not work out perfect. I foresee it going well though and all being perfect.
