How many tmnt-related items do you buy a month.
 

I was just wondering how many tmnt items does one buy a month ?
Is that mostly ebay related or do you guys try to avoid ebay and go with trift stores, flea markets ,etc..
I for a start prob buy atleast 3 items a month..
(sorry if this is a repo)
Cowabunga!

Right now, it's pretty much just the comics I buy every month. But, once the new show airs, and there's more things available in stores, that number will be increasing. (Especially the figures based on the old toon!)

Just comics for now.

I buy DVDs of the cartoons whenever they come back. I'll buy some of the new toys when the Nick show starts.

right now just the comics, probably going to just keep it that way as well seeing that i really dont have the room for the new toys.

At the moment the only Ninja Turtle stuff I buy are the IDW comics, but as soon as Nickelodeon starts releasing DVDs of the new show I'll be getting them too. I'm kind of up in the air about the action figures though.

is this a competition?

Yes, Mr. Turtle. It's a very serious competition we take very seriously.

Yea, it's basically a pissing contest! :trolleye:

the furthest win or the longest lasting win?

I don't buy anything. However, after a long hiatus from the site, I have made a few ebay purchases lately.

I was buying comics off eBay fairly often last year when I was trying to complete my Archie Adventures run, as well as a number of those random 18-20 ninja turtle comic packs off of mycomicshop.

Right now though I pick up the comics every month and the Ultimate Collections when they're released. The figures don't interest me much but I'll buy any of the dvd's.

It really depends...when the 4 kids toon was airing I used to buy lot's of stuff, at some point I had enough and stopped.lately I'm starting to buy the comics again and some eBay stuff,but we'll see how things are when the new toon and movie come out...

Last year I was spending about 150 dollars a week on tmnt stuff. I've since cut back to about 40 even then I split it up with my kool aid collection now.

Okay, clearly you don't understand sarcasm.

^ where u get that frm?

What the f*ck is a kool aid collection.

ATM I only get the books/collections that IDW is putting out. But once the action figures start coming out I'll be getting those as well.

I've also pre-ordered the kiddy books that'll be out beginning of August thru Barnes and Noble.

I collect rare/ no longer produced flavors of Kool aid.

I have an old Berry Blue Kool Aid container that I used to keep pencils in. Is that worth anything? I didn't know people collected Kool Aid.

I dint know about these is there anything up about them on the web?

Is it the big 2 quart one or small glass?

There are months that I spend way to much , depends whats on ebay and local flea markets..
Since I collect everything tmnt related its hard to take a break , after Comic con London next week i'm really gonna take a break and fix my 'turtleroom' so I can display everything.
Cowabunga!

Since almost all of my purchases since last July have been on eBay and since I was just rediscovering TMNT then, this is my purchase log, month-by-month, since then:

Keep in mind some of this gets reselled (rarer figures within stuff I already have).

July: 2 (I considered Padded Nunchucks as TMNT-related).
August: 5 (I consider a yearbook containing a TMNT voice actor to count).
September: 14
October: 18 (A magazine containing Irma's voice actor on the cover counts).
November: 29
December: 5
January: 20
February: (A pre-TMNT era Playmates catalog counts) 19
March: 11
April: 7
May: 4

I've dwindled a bit since I want to organize/focus more on some other things, but I've done quite a bit of TMNT shopping over the past 10 months or so!

I'm back in Japan again. Been here since late March. So aside from the ultimate collection of the Mirage series, it's very limited for me.

I'm trying my best not to import stuff. lol

Since I buy to resell, I buy a TON of lots off of ebay-- but I purposefully set high prices on items that I don't mind having around. I buy everything IDW puts out that is TMNT related except the high dollar stuff. I bet I make around 20 TMNT related purchases a month. That will probably subside now that I'm going to have to resell the merchandise I have before I can buy more because I just lost my job :tconfuse:

I get the IDW comics and one or two Mitage comics every month. If I find a NECA turtle I pik it up too. So it just varies. I use eBay a lot plus amazon and a place called yardsellr for the IDW comics.

I probably get about 1-2 TMNT comics a month and thats it...
