Hey guys, what's up?
 

I'm 29 years old and have been a TMNT fan since I received the original sewer playset for my 5th birthday.

I sold my original figures off sometime before college but have regretted it ever since.

A couple months ago I was diagnosed with mono and was bed ridden for a few weeks. This afforded me lots of time to read trough the original Eastman/Laird comic run and surf ebay for vintage figure auctions. I've purchased all the figures I had as a kid plus ones I always wanted but was never able to find. My collection is well over 40 figures now:teek:. Just shows you that awesome things can come out of having unpleasant viruses.

I've also been picking up a few of the new Nick cartoon figures here and there.

I plan on growing my collection and was looking for a place to talk about awesome finds with other fans, so I thought I'd sign up for this site.

Look forward to talking with you guys.

Later.

-Matt

Welcome aboard.

Welcome to the Technodrome forums! I hope you'll enjoy meeting and talking with fellow TMNT fans here! It sounds like you've got a good collection of TMNT items! I also hope you'll get better soon.

Hey!

Feel like I'm in the same boat as you; 29 now, became a fan at about 5 years old (Never had that awesome sewer playset though, only the Party Wagon. Do you still have that playset?)

Welcome aboard!

Welcome to the Drome, Matt. You'll love it here.

Hi Matt! Welcome to the Technodrome Forums!

Glad to hear you were able to purchase all the figures you had as a kid! :) I'm sure the users here can help you in your search. Best wishes in your search! :)

Welcome to the Drome! I hope that your health issue turns around and you keep collecting TMNT.:D

hello & welcome to the drome. Sorry to hear you've been sick but sounds like you've been spending that time well!!

Welcome to the drome DjJumboSlice!

Hey, my name is Matthias and I'm 29 years old, too. Welcome and greetings from Germany !! :D

I do not, unfortunately. I currently don't have that much space to properly display playsets, so I'm just going to focus on the figures for now. But if I see a decent deal on a Technodrome, I might change my mind...

Hi DjJumboSlice! I'm still working on re-collecting my old figures as well.

Nice. All have mine have been from ebay, except for a black Super Shredder I found on amazon.

Welcome aboard! I'm sure you'll love it here!

Hello there and welcome! Sometimes good things can come out of supposed bad ones :)
