holy bananas!!! that is a lot of awesome stuff :)

Cool, thanks to Kevin for sharing and supporting the Hero Initiative.. Best of luck to him and the auction!!

Some cool items in there. Hopefully it will sell for a lot since it's Eastman's personal collection. I hope in a few years he finally auctions off more early TMNT Mirage art that he's been holding on to. He needs to give me a few years though to replenish my savings as I"ve been buying a lot of early art lately.

I'm surprised Stephan isn't buying all of it :tlol:

Is he trying to sell it as a collection, or is he going to break it up? That Bisley-esque Michelangelo statue is BAD ASS.

Well if you look at the ebay auction I linked in the first post you'll see that it's all one auction. All the contents of his art studio goes to the high bidder.


I won't lie and say that my collection isn't benefiting now that I'm working for Kevin full time, but if I took everything, there wouldn't be anything to sell! hehe.

I can't win em' all. That would be super boring.

Wow wonder how high this bad boy will hit, $10K? $15K? More?

Trying not to get my hopes up, but remaining hopeful!

Do you have a link to the thread where your connecting cover sketches from Kevin are? I haven't been able to find it.

Empty cans of red bull. ALLRIGHT haha

What I really want to know is what are the tmnt items we dont know exists?

Yeah I'm curious about that as well, hopefully its a Technodrome member who wins and we'll get to find out and see some great photos!

I gotta say while this is very, very cool, I really wish there was some way to know exactly what is in the auction. I know it's "EVERYTHING" but similiar to those warehouse boxes he listed on the bay, I think people might be a bit hesitant to spend serious cash without knowing exactly what they're buying. That said, the price right now is pretty strong so maybe I'm just a weirdo as plenty of people seem to have no issue!

I always love how Kevin auctions off those "Everything you see here!" lots. There really is no tellin' what all is included. I wonder how many legit bids he gets for those auctions.

But can anyone really put a price on "creativity?" :tcool:

is there any way of asking Kevin a question without having to go through a middleman?

Facebook i think, he's got an account there :)

I think that's kind of the fun of it. There are crates in that room that Kevin hasn't even gone through. And at the same time, we've planted some things in there to make for certain that the winner won't be disappointed. There's a ton of original art in that room (not necessarily from the Turtles). Lot's of Bisley, and I even spotted a Corben original sketch the other day.

$8,200 and counting!


Sorta? You can get him via facebook, but don't expect a response until at least after the gallery show is over. The show staff (including Kevin) are all really busy. The only reason I'm so active online right now is that internet coverage is part of my job description. If there is something specific you'd like me to ask him, I will most likely be seeing him today.

I can't imagine how much fun you are having during this show.

It's crazy fun and rewarding, but also completely exhausting. Apart from my social media and collection curator duties -- I'm responsible for everything involving the physical gallery and all items therein. Which means a lot of 12 hour days. But completely worth it every time I see a fan meeting Kevin for the first time or buying a new copy of a comic they had when they were 6.

12,600- not bad for some red bull cans ;) j/k someone got some very cool stuff!

not bad winning bid. i thought it would've topped the $15K mark.
