The Primary Directory
This is a link to my primary collection directory. Sifting through this thing will technically show you more of my collection...but not all of it is sorted very nicely. Check it out at your own risk!

wow man, awesome collection. I love that you have replaced dishes and kitchen utensils with turtles :)

What happens if you set fire to the Technodrome being as its so close to the stove top?

...then....I suppose...the house would burn down? What a strange question lol. At any rate, I haven't used that stove in years. There isn't even gas running to it at the moment.

I've been in my current apartment since February and I've never even used the stove or oven :lol: Of course, my reason is because I can't cook worth squat.

holy shiznits! that is crazy. wow... just... wow.

Photowave Tew! Some Close-ups!

ooooooo... I was waiting for closeups! Awesome collection! Do you get your figures loose or do you keep the cards or what?

Red Party Cups! YAY!

I'm not picky about carded or loose. I've taken a number of my figs out of their package, especially when I have part of a subset partially out of the package already. I'll take them out of the package to display the whole group together.

it wouldnt hurt you to clean your collection once in a while. :D you should be particularly concerned about the dust on any of your items with cloth like the undercover turtles. I don't know, maybe it's a girl thing, but Im just picky about dust. :lol:

Most of them are clean. I clean stuff when I move it. The shelves themselves are what seldom get cleaned. So worst cast scenario, they have dusty feet. But yes...you are picky.

Besides...you try finding the motivation to keep over a thousand pieces clean. The kitchen is just a portion of the collection lol :-P

ohhh myy good¡¡¡ jj whaat did ur girlfriends tells u bout all those toys dude?

My girlfriend supports me in everything i do. As any significant other should...I frankly find it appalling how many people here are in relationships in which their ninja turtle passion (or any other passion for that matter) is a source of tension in their relationship... Honestly... if I was with someone who felt that negatively about such a big part of me...I wouldn't be with them for very long.

Something to consider gang.

This is very true dude!! My girl friend doesn't have to LOVE turtles but she is the kind of person who would NEVER suggest I not do something if she knows it is important to me. That is the most important thing, accepting each other the way we are! Mind you we do live in a VERY small place so I try to keep the displayed collection at a respectable minimum. BUT you bet it would all be out if I had a little more room. I don't think I could display it all even if I lived here alone hahaha.

Well said.. Some people collect shoes and clothes... Some people collect Turtles!!

I am waiting for the picture, Archon, of the closet with Turtles spilling out of it?!!!

jeje i mean mi gril dosent love turtles but she does give me 15 turtles and the vintage sewer 4 christmas ..she thinks is a waist of money but she loves that I am a big boy and she supports me two becuse she knows turtles are important to me...I mean i dont have ur collection or tatos but trust me she have never seen soo muchh turtles on her life till she meet me jeje


ps please some one answer my questions on comic section

The hand paint jobs are top notch, and there is flash plastic from the mold holes all over them.
