TMNT Collector weapons.

[Lord Nightwalker]

Browsing through swords and Knives on ebay, I came across Leo's swords. Rpah's Sai, and Don's bo. I ordered three of the swords, One for my son for Christmas, two for myself..Because Leo has two and I'm planning to make a wood burned relief sword wall hanger for them. they aren't to bad, however they have no edge, And they didn't come with the mask like it was supposed to. The sai look cool, but I have yet to orderthem. The bow screws apart into three sections and I personaly don't like that. These were meant as collectible decorations, I know. I mean, come on, they don't compare at all to my Cold Steel sets. But I thought those of you who collect knives and weapons, and or/ practice Martial arts like myself, would want to know about these. They can be found all over ebay. Enjoy!
My only wish is that WSC had made them. most of their Replica swords are nice quality, functional swords. They can be found at Museum Replicas ltd.

yeah i saw the sai but i got two pair of my own cheapos...i dont need another set that's not even a decent size! they're like really short. mine are 18" and 21"

I bought Leo's swords a few months ago myself. I thought I was just getting one sword, which was fine, but in fact I got two for the price of one. Both came in a box with the mask. I think they're really cool, and it saved me from having actual replicas made when I had the funds for it someday. They're really beautiful on a collector's level.

Can some linkage be provided for these items?

I can't find Mikey's nunchuckus, however. Maybe they're rare?

Yep, I know. Hence the lack of official marketing. But like bootleg toys, some of them just catch your eye. And they'll do until Official replicas get made. lol. And we all know how likely that is! *smiles*
As a swords/weapons/TMNT enthusiast, I couldn't resist. lol.
I had to have one. I had to pick them up individualy, they were not offered as a set when I came across them lol. Figures. But they were cheap, looked decent and will go great with the wood burned hanger plaque I made.
I have about three dozen Good quality swords, a few actual Movie replicas, not the knock offs, and a couple pair of sai. Both sai are 21 inches, one set is round they other octagonal, the octagonal are blacked. I used to have a set made by Chameleon sai, but they were stollen along with my first escrima. Never did get those back. I have a pretty good variety of swords, knives, axes, ect. I love them. Even made a few of my own. And that is work. *smiles* I usualy pick blades up from Cold Steel, Museum Replicas ltd, their sister company Atlanta Cutlery, Win Lum Kung Fu's catalog of weapons and training supplies..(They carry antique swords too!) and back in the day Items from Asian world of martial arts and I still grab the occasional piece from Century martial arts. And I also will buy knives from our local Rural King store.
Knife making supplies I picked up from Texas knife supply, and cetaur forge. I haven't fabricated a blade in about three years now. It's an interesting challenge, artisticly speaking.

the bo is pretty cheesy like that but it makes for easier shipping. its not for real use anyways

In that auction they use Leonardo's original action figure bio from 1988. I thought that was sort of obscure/random.

Does it matter? Even if they aren't official, they're still cool. And more than likely, an official production of them is not going to happen. So this is the best we've got for people who'd like to have a replica weapon of their favorite turtle.

Thanks Mystic!

As for the nunchaku... meh... I've got a pair that look like Mikey's anyway, down to the orange grip tape - that I bought in 2002!

I'd be very wary, however, of purchasing a sword from someone who misspells "tsuba".

Crap. There goes my idea of chopping bamboo with Leo's swords

I hope with Neca doing what they are doing, that we can see better weapons made soon, IE Don's bo. But those eye masks are such... inferior crap.

It's my only complaint about the weapon sets. But it's minor.
