What TMNT items do you collect?

Leonardo19 · 11-29-2005, 12:38 PM

Just curious as to what TMNT items everyone is collecting. I currently collect any TMNT DVDs, comics, various old and new toys, statues, and I have made tons of custom miniatures for gaming.

Right now i'm just collecting DVD's and coimcs. I'm sorta short on cash now, but when i get enough, i'm gonna start with the toy lines.

lilonardo · 11-29-2005, 02:14 PM

Videogames and episodes of the cartoon on DVD/VHS
I do plan to collect the figures again as well!

aramconbrat · 11-29-2005, 03:00 PM

First and foremost, the figures (old and new)
Then playsets, vehicles, accessories, etc.
Then everything else... Vintage before new..

I have the stuffed animals, books, comics, toothbrushes, stickers, cake decorations, candles, candy, keychains, games, boardgames, puzzles, lunchboxes, etc...

But I collect the figures mainly. I put a lot of money into getting the figures, and any money left over goes towards any other ninja turtle stuff I come across!

i mostly work on collecting OT VHS/DVD and vintage comics.
I have slowed on the collecting of toys for now because i did so vigorously as a child, and now i have about 300 or 400 toys. I will probably start up collecting more vintage toys not the new ones tho

At this point Im buying almost anything I can find except figure variants cause a lot of them aren't worth it specially the ones that have that crumple in defeat feature

Lady Venus · 11-29-2005, 04:59 PM

I have an old ep and a game.

*Weapon X* · 11-29-2005, 05:11 PM

-Old Figures/Vehicles.
-Old Toon DVDs.
-Mirage Vol. 1 Comics.
-Misc. TMNT merchandise.

That's about it.

Photos of my "collection" can be found in the collection photos thread.

I only have a few DVDs, and I only have those because they came with figures. I have roughly 75% of the stuff that Playmates has put out since the "Renaissance". I have a lot of toys from the old show and several shoe boxes filled with comics. My most recent aquirings were Karai and Giant Fightin' Gear Raphael. Both very, very, very tight toys.

I'm like the Metaphysical poet John Donne. At times I feel like I'm too worldly/materialistic in the way I collect all this turtle stuff, and other times I can't help myself. I'm wanting to get more fightin' gear turtles just because I like the new packaging. I only have one Elite Guard right now but am hoping to buy at least one more when I have more money/see one at the store. I have two Dark Assassins, two Triceraton Warriors, and two mini Foot Soldiers (all opened). I'm starting to take interest in "army building" and I actually really like turtle variants. I'll probably be picking up a lot of 'extra' stuff when I have more money, and some of those items may very well appear in a buying/selling/trading thread sometime in early 2006. One of my greatest dreams recently came true: the store across from where I work is now carrying more TMNT stuff, and at relatively reasonable prices.

Yeah, I'm a loser. But I'm a very happy loser.

original film props and production materials.

*zkarlette* · 11-29-2005, 07:02 PM

I have few of the New toon DVD's cause I have the rest of the Eps on the DVR......,waiting for the miracle of getting them as a DVD set but I guess that will not happen any time soon

I totally love those d-osborn!!!

FireFly · 11-29-2005, 10:14 PM

fig's, dvds and video games

**Jester** · 11-29-2005, 11:27 PM

Figures and DVD's...I also have some TMNT Mighty Beans...

TheGreenMagic · 11-29-2005, 11:34 PM

Figures and DVDs... though I don't know if I can be qualified when I only grab a very select few of them.

*Buslady* · 11-29-2005, 11:37 PM

Anything I see that has any likeness, image or whatever...of Raphael.
I am a little behind..I still gotta get the beanie and gloves at Target.

I have a small wish list too:
from Movie 1: raph's coat, hat & sai

TheShowstoppa · 11-30-2005, 12:42 AM

Lemme see... I have all the new toys in boxes and loose. I own all but 3 Vol. 1comics. I have every current Tales and Vol. 4 comic, I have shirts, jackets, beenies, and I have all the DVDs. I have an old school pillow case and blanket, two new fleece blankets. Leo pillow, big pillow, monster trucks, Star Trek Turtles. Basically, if it's TMNT and I can find it, I get it... especially if its rare!

NinjaTurtlesFan · 11-30-2005, 10:24 AM

I collect stuff from the movies. Mostly The first two. But yesterday I received collectors card from the third movie and I hope to receive end of the week a magazine of the third movie.

Stuff I have from the movies are magazine's, storybooks, collector cards, comics, VHS and DVD.

MyNameSlash · 11-30-2005, 01:38 PM

Tapes, DVDs, MOC/MIB action figures (old and new), comics (old and new), clothing, and everything else really.

Blondus · 12-01-2005, 01:42 AM

Nothing at the moment. I am in the middle between two jobs, and i actually had to borrow money from a friend of mine to survive this month.

Ah! Wait! I record every episode of the new toon on old videotapes. And then there's all the stuff from my childhood and the old toon. Fig's, videos, cartoonsl, all that stuff.

I totally am going to buy one of those beanie caps also. I saw one the other day, and regretted not buying it when I was there!

Mostly, I just buy the toys. and the classic DVDs.
