Different person. This is worthy of it's own thread. Hopefully with better final results.

Agreed!.....I'll be keeping an eye on it

Well, I am not falling for this AGAIN. And good luck in selling this with those international shipping costs.

I like the cover art.

I can vouch for Chris as a legit guy with a truly astounding collection. He's the admin of a number of TMNT prototype collector groups on Facebook, and has connections with the communities. He's already contributed some of his images to another book that came out earlier this year (https://www.bigbadtoystore.com/Product/VariationDetails/98930), and I have already pre-ordered my Rad Plastic copy!

Looks cool! Needs a new logo desperately, though!

Yeah, I can vouch, too. Chris is a member here, too, but in many other outside groups is a trusted & invaluable source of vintage Playmates info, materials, images, & much more.

Does he need Nickelodeon/Viacom approval, though?

It's not officially licensed and doesn't use the corporate names in the title. Chris will be using scans and photographs from items in his personal collection to talk about prototypes and the general history of the toyline, so that makes it comparable to a number of other books already released. So far as I know, it won't be sold through major bookstores, and will have a limited print-run, first come, first serve.

That's good. Too bad it would cost $135+, so I am out for this one

The design looks fantastic!

I get the photos, but would the design art not be under copyright?

I'm trying to find a way to get the international shipping costs down. Unfortunately I don't control the postal service. I'm charging exactly the shipping price I will be charged.

Most of the photos in the book are my own photos. This will very much fall under fair use for educational and historical purposes.
