Truly great work man!!

I appreciate the kind words, guys!

There were several custom sets that sold for $400-600 when the figures first came out, and I may be a bit late to that party, but in all honestly, I love these custom so much and priced them at a price that I wouldn't have a problem letting go of them, as I've had people inquire about whether they were for sale or not.

I get that some people think it's crazy to spend so much on custom turtles, but considering that I've sold several G.I. Joe customs for over $100 each and one for over $200 just goes to show that there's a lid for every pot. There are those that can afford to pay for the time and work put into a custom. Consider that I broke down every figure into all of it's parts, hand washed each individual piece, sanded all of the joints, primed each piece, painted multiple coats for a base coat, dry-brushed for several hours, applied washes, did touch-ups, and sealed each figure. The hours add up. If you realized that selling these at $500 would be me making less than minimum wage should help put it into perspective a little bit. Of course, what one considers "worth it" is subjective, and hopefully, someone will find not just my hard work, but the quality of my work worth it.
