My Small TMNT Collection

Wolfdawg · 09-23-2013, 12:41 PM

Hey guys, this is my first post (woo hoo!). I figured I'd share my small collection with everyone. I collect Power Ranger/Sentai, Transformers, Pokemon, and (most importantly) TMNT stuff. I try to keep my collection small and focused because I used to have WAY too much Power Ranger and Transformer things.

Been a turtle fan since I was a kid back in the 80's, but as I got older, I never thought to collect them because they just never seemed "display-able" to me. However, I've managed to get a small group of figures that (to me) look pretty cool in a display cabinet.

Here's the rest of my collection so far.

Holy sh*t dude, my art is framed on your wall?!

I was gonna compliment your collection anyway, considering it's beautifully displayed, but I'm clearly biased now.

If you're talking about the TMNT picture I have framed, then yea man, it's really bad ass. You're a great artist too, because I looked EVERYWHERE for a Ninja Turtle picture thought I thought looked simultaneously awesome and classy, and that was the only thing I could find that fit those requirements.

Righteous collection my friend

Less is more! Great collection and display, seems like we have similar tastes.

Wolfdawg · 09-24-2013, 09:43 AM

Thanks for the compliments guys. I was thinking about getting a Mona Lisa toy to go at the top of the Detolf with Venus so that there would be another female character to keep her company. I was also thinking about getting the 4 turtle figures from the 2007 movie, but I have no idea where I'd put them, nor do I have any idea of their overall quality. There don't seem to be too many TMNT resources out there...

nice collection. just enough classic pieces and not too cluttered

I have em and I at first was reluctant to get them, but I like them. I also have splinter from that line

Are those the Ikea cases? I've been eyeing those to display my collection.

Yea, they're the Detolfs. I love those things. I used to use 4 black book shelves, but I quickly threw them out when my Detolfs arrived.

Good to know. I may just get Leonardo or Raphael, then. I don't have enough room for all 4. I'd love to just get Mikey, but those googly eyes of his really put me off. How are they at posing?

Yeah, the Raphael silhouette one, 'dassa me. Thanks for the kind words! I suppose the bulk of the credit should go to Frank Miller though, considering it was a tribute to a Batman piece he did.

Awesome collection!

joetheripper · 09-24-2013, 10:07 PM

er meh gerd! i love your pokemon stuff! **** was my life back in the day

Nameless · 09-24-2013, 10:12 PM

decent collection. pretty sure my glass display case is the same type as your display cases haha. i really like how you have everything showcased.

darthwahl56 · 10-03-2013, 04:24 AM

Eventually, this is what I will need to do. Display the best of the best of my collection in my own place. Right now though I am relagated to a basement, plastic tubs of my stuff, and a storage unit holding most of my collection of stuff.

*Whatswiththeheadbands?* · 10-04-2013, 02:53 PM

Nice collection.

As a Legend of Zelda fan, i approve

of the Hylian Shield and Master sword on the wall.
