My mom almost wiped out my whole collection. I wanted to take a Katana and slice her head off, but now I am rebuilding it. All I had left after she was done was my road ready splinter, undercover don, backflippin Leo, and cartwheelin don.

I feel for you. I went ballistic on my mom because she hid my Raphael plushie doll. Then she played keep away with my new comic. If she ever threw away any of my Turtle stuff, there would be no doubt I would kill her. Or at least severely hurt her.

I did find my Giant Raph just last week, nothing else though. What I want is the window cling plushies so I can show off my love for the turtles while cruising in my pickup.

I think there's some rule in the Parenting Handbook that says they have to throw out something of yours that is either personally important, or turns out to be worth lots of money. :grin:

True, but is it really safe to do so when you know for a fact that your daughter has a severe Raph-like temper, a loose grip on sanity, and has already put a hole in the wall?

Heh heh! I'm glad my parents didn't throw out any of my old TMNT stuff. My most prized possession is my Pizza Shooter. Now playing with that was fun! *Laughs histerically, as he remembers launching a few pizzas at his unsuspecting cousins* :lol:

Nope. Personally I don't believe its right to throw anyone's stuff out. But then, I have major privacy issues and hate having my things handled by others.

I was never into collecting as a kid, so I didn't have much stuff to throw away. But NOW, no one touches my stuff.

My mom now knows I am a collector of whatever I want. She calls me a childish fool for loving the turtles for my age. I'm just 16 and have loved them since I was 5. I love having ebay helping me get the tmnt goods.

Hey, I'm 23 and I love the Turtles! Don't let anyone tell you you can't have fun just because you're over 10 years old!

Yes, remember, the original comics were for teens and adults.

And besides, lots of adults do "kid stuff"! Model railroads, remote controlled stuff, baseball cards, beanie babies, etc, etc, etc...

Fortunately my parents never got rid of my stuff, but I have reached the point where I have been getting rid of some things on my own. *Mutters to self* Stupid little apartment...

I fully agree with you. I don't care what anybody says about me lovin the turtles, I'm a turtleholic, always have been, always will be.

Turtleholic? There's one for the "What are TMNT fans called?" thread.

I might not have all my stuff, but I got the TMNT in my heart.

Hmmm...Turtleholics...

"Hello. My name is Skeletoncrew and I...*sob*...am...*sniff*...a...turtleholic!"

*pats Skeletoncrew's shoulder* There's nothing wrong with that. Now being a Turtle-hentai...

Whoo hoo! Turtle Hentai!!!

*plop* *splash*

Don't mind the noises, that was just my mind falling into the gutter.
