I don't think anyone who doesn't work on the show can confirm that at this point. It's possible, though.

What would be a good price for a Mikey Playmate statue? For how much do they usually sell?

I may want to bid on one, and was just wondering, what's the approximate price range.

Where can I purchase clamshell cases in bulk at wholesale price? I would like to buy about 150 of them at around $2 a piece. Any ideas?

They were selling for a mere 40 bucks two years back when a website had backstock and tried to push them for Black Friday. $100 or under and you're good as gold. They're the most common statue of the four.

Thanks a lot, bro!

I was at Target recently and found a Dougpound figure with an almost all Orange paint job on the upper half of his body.

Is this common with the new figures to see paint errors? Or was this a mistake that I should have picked up?

Another user mentioned seeing a Dogpund with an all white face so it made me wonder.

A bit off-topic question so forgive me but I wonder if any of you collect Monster In My Pocket? And if so, then can someone tell me, is this figure really soooo rare and expensive? (not my auction fo course):

The 2nd is an original release...the 1st is a rereleases from 1998 (I have the all 4 turtles on that card back)

[turtles_kolektor]

Also I would recommend you not to buy anything from this seller, in case you are considering. He is a legend here on drome. Plus welcome on board

[Freebo]

Ok, thanks! Now I think that is very dificult to know what is an original release figure and a re-release figure... I pretend buy only original figures but...maybe a lot of buyers can cheat to me because i dont know a lot of things about the figures yet.

[JOEMOE]

I see a lot of pricey art for sale lately, IDW related, that was purchased in a retail setting with in the past couple years.

I see some comic books get listed as 1 of 10 special covers for $500-1000, but then they keep coming out.

Is it reasonable for a buyer to get retail price back for these items, or does value go down or up? Or is the market so fickle that they are just sorta worth what someone will pay once they are purchased retail?

I understand the 1 of 10 IDW comics fly off the shelf as soon as they are for sale, but then when i see them listed on ebay they seem to collect dust.

[BlisterStockboy]

Today at the flea market, I came across 6 Raphael's who had the original toy's body, but with a slightly larger head, with pupils, and a more exaggerated mouth. Can anyone tell me a little bit about this? I'm new to collecting TMNT.

[Shogun26]

Ok, I know there were 11 pizza's that originally came with the pizza thrower. Could someone tell me the breakdown of cheese pizzas vs cherry pizzas?
thanks in advance.

Do you guys think Playmates is ever going to rerelease the Turtle Blimp?

Are you talking about the original OT figures, the 2K3 figures, or something else, like the 2K7 movie figures?

Don't get your hopes up.

Nope. I sure wish they would, though. The van & blimp were two of my most wanted items as a kid that I never got. Thanks to the 25th ann releases I was able to nab a van, though.

Yeah totally man, I did have the van. But I was so young and I screwed up the decals a little bit and broke the swing out chair. Im getting the van again this week at TRU! Im pumped, Im going to deck it out lol. I always envied my cousin who had the blimp. At that time I never even knew they sold that, and now that Im older and have a job I can afford it. I would buy it in a second. I told myself I wouldn't get vehicles since I've been regaining all of the figures, however my friend gave me his Foot Cruiser in great condition last year, and now Playmates is releasing the Van again. I'll make an exception for the Van, Blimp, and maybe the Foot Ski in my collection with my friend's Foot Cruiser that he gave me.

[Powder]

I'll definitely make that same exception, should the opportunity arise. Unlike most things that require shelf space & whatnot, I'd find a way to hang it from the ceiling with turtles on it.
