Long Time Turtle Fan, New to the Site
 
Within this last year I have rediscovered my love for the TMNT universe. No doubt that the new nick show and the buying of the tmnt complete collection has played their parts in this. I have bought many of the figures of the recent collection. Now I am proud once again to say, " I love being a turtle!"

I am a 28 year toy collector with a fascination for action figures. I have bought many action figures in my years as a collector, but many who have seen me think that I am either slightly younger than 20 or within my early 20's. A collector thought I was younger and not very knowledgable of the hobby and tried to rip me off.

When I was 5 my mom told me I was born in a Sewer. Well, at least that was what I thought. I was like wow, now I can go hang with the turtles. Then I was told it was Seward, Nebraska a small town outside of Lincoln. I don't live there anymore, but I know I was born there. I also lived in a town called Manhattan, that is cool.

Nowadays I am single and collecting toys. Right now TMNT is my go to source for my addiction at the moment. I have bought many of the early 90's figures over the past several months, starting with a set of the four turtles on there original cards for a total of $80. I have realized that these characters and their universe are my favorites over many toys I have collected for years. The Pizza Thrower being one of those favorites.

So now I hope to have some fun on a website about the turtles and their homies.:twink:

Hey don't worry about that! :P When the rest of your peers are looking middle aged (40s and 50s), you still will be looking young and good 8) (appearing in your 30s, despite being in your 40s and 50s)! :lol: If you live a clean lifestyle, you'll definitely reap the benefits as you get older and still look young!

LOL, a sewer... funny stuff. :lol: A "town" called Manhattan, pfft. :P That must be the biggest "town" you've ever seen I'm sure, being from Nebraska. ;)
