Scotty tuffguy1979 Collection
 

Let me start off with saying hi to all, I have been collecting the original teenage mutant ninja turtles series since 1993 or 1994, I'm a very serious collector and played with turtles as a kid and guess I could never get away from it, I collect tmnt from 88-97, I also collect Master of the Universe, I currently have a very large collection and try to get as much of it graded as I can, I will be slowly posting pics of my colletion over time, I have lots of graded and ungraded figures and takes alot of time to pull figures out an take pics, let me say I'm always looking to buy tmnt moc any size or amount , so take a look and hope you enjoy, Scott

Cowabunga !

Cool!!!! Keep posting !!! :D :tgrin::tgrin: :tcool:

I will try to work on something tonight again

nice collection of figs!

That's just my pop ups but thanks so much

Nice, but no collection is complete without Krang, April, and a Foot Soldier. I just like to keep thinking to myself, "Why can't I go back in time just to snag some figures on the clearance rack or on eBay in the late '90s/early '00s when the MOC figures were cheaper?"

I eventually hope to post my collection soon as I basically started from scratch just several months ago and now have quite an expanding collection. I still don't have any MOC figures as I want to get the figures for cheap and focus more money on some rarer comics/figures and other items I collect.

This is just my pop up figures and your def right but they didn't produce popup display krang April and foot soldier but in future pics I will def include them thanks for looking and great to chat with everyone

Here's a pics of some of my u85 grade tmnt I have a few more but these are some of the 85's I haveAttachment 2025

Man I don't even want to know how much you've spent on grading.

LOL, I feel the same, but hopefully in the long run it will be worth it

nice figures ,i am also a tmnt motu collector , but i dont really have the $ for carded stuff , i just have a few , cant wait to see more !, what is the cost to get a figure graded? post some motu pics too.i am crazy about motu and tmnt i cant pick between the 2 so i try to collect both ,you can check out my collection thread but if you only like carded figures mine will look like a flea market to you,are you collecting motuc?

lol i told you all you would s*&t brix if you saw his collection, and he hasn't even scratched the surface. Remember a few months back when them unopened cases were sold on ebay? Well this is the guy who got them and sent them to be graded, this guy is one bad ass collector!

I collect all MISB, so the next pics are graded with and 85 or misb, as we all know how hard it is to find MISB turtle items, Lots are sold sealed but I have bought so many that had been opened but enjoy and Thanks againAttachment 2029[ATTACH]Attachment 2031[/ATTACH]

And any collection is great no matter what the size or kind just as long as you are happy with it, I also have a very large MOTU collection, I do collect MOTUC, but the last 2 months I didn't buy any, I try to focus and if I'm a few different toy lines you miss stuff so my major focus is tmnt and motu, but one of these days I might get some pics of my collection of motu

You again, lol, great talking with you hope you enjoy the pics, it takes alot of work to pull stuff, but hope your enjoy them and thank you

I love the collection and it looks great.

no prob just wish those were pics of my stuff lol

Do you try to collect figures etc. that are in a certain grade range? If so which one?

Of course I like 85 and above, but turtles are very hard to get high grades, it seems like most turtles are 70-80 especailly in the 92 and up, and if the item is rare, the condition doesnt matter, its just the fact that you have it, but I like 85's, I chase all 85's in MOTU Figures too,

They didn't make turtles in 85?!?!?!

85 is a grade not a year.
100 would be perfectly mint condition. 85 is like a B for mint-ness...

oh ok. and i wonder if that unopened case are going to be graded as 100 since they never was handled?

Wow, I'm sure I knew that LOL, Thats funny

Thank You LOL

And no the turtles graded from 70 to 90's, not the year, the grade, LOL, they grade in 5's, turtles are packed poorly in cases, usually have bubble damage, and turtle cards are always creased, from light vien creases to major ones, its very hard to find good high grade turles, right now an AFA 90 is the highest grades I have, Now in MOTU I do have one AFA95, still high grades are very difficult to locate,

WOW the collection of Pop-UP look incredible all together like that! I can't wait to see more of your collection

Thank You, I will try to add more things tomorrow but only missing one popup,

I know what you mean first hand. I got my hands on a sealed case of 25th anniversary figures. The sealed case itself was perfect condition no damage whatsoever. The figures in side were far from perfect.

I do however have a case fresh Fan Club Flyer Soft Head Michaelangelo. The card is unpunched with not a crease, dent, ding, paint chip, or imperfection in sight. Ditto with the bubble. I have exteme OCD and can pick apart perfection and the only thing I can find on my figure is extremely minute bubble rub/scuffs. Bubble rub was present on all of the figures that were very first released. In the first few shipments the figures were not packed with tissue paper that separates the bubbles like in later shipments.

Even so the seller how has handled thousands of TMNT figures said that he has never seen a figure in such amazing condition and knows he will never see one again.

I would get that sucker graded but it came from a sealed case straight to my hands. I wouldnt want anyone else handling it. So it will forever remain in my zolo case ungraded.

That's awesome about the mike w fan club, they are out there an awesome to find I have a fan club raph graded 90 they look so nice when they are so near to perfect, but awesome find on the mike

Thanks dude! Its one of the corner stones to my collection.

PS your collection kicks a$$

Thank You that means a lot

Here's a set of 94 storage shell w card and 95 storage shell I didn't get them graded but hoping as soon as the new year starts
