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.
