A New law threatens our toys!!
 
A New law threatens our toys!!

I was recently informed about a new Toy Law that may or affect the TMNT Community... More information can be found here:

It suggests that all the old toys in thrift stores and EVEN EBAY will be thrown into the dump!! Unless they pass inspections????!!! I guess you can "fight back" By mailing them!!

Well maybe this will drive prices up!

You're just now learning about this? There is a lopol. Label it collectibles. That's all there is to it. Also, BBTS has been putting that huge "Adult Collectors Warning" on all their pages. This is one of the reasons why.

I still don't know what this means for 2nd hand stores like Goodwill, but I've heard it's been amended to not be retroactive. However, I haven't paid much attention since learning the lopol for comic shops and eBay.

Of course, I can always be wrong...

EDIT: Ooooo...Snopes! I haven't been on there forever.
