Hi, does anybody know if it's possible to still find any of the gum stickers from the 90s?

nuno · 09-19-2014, 08:53 AM

I'd like to ask something about the latest NECA turtles (the comic book looking ones).

Were they ever released with the bandana colors from the cartoon?

I never read the comics so I have no attachment to the red bandanas, though I like those designs. I think those even appeared on the back of the vintage packages.

*Powder* · 09-19-2014, 03:39 PM

Latest? They only made one line of figures & they're from like 2008 or 9. At any rate, no, they were never officially released as the rainbow brigade. However, if that color scheme tickles your fancy, there are high quality bootlegs of the NECA turtle toys with the cartoon masks, easily found on ebay. & yeah, the designs on early Playmates material is definitely inspired by the original Mirage style. Looks awesome.

Probably. She's in stock on TRU.com.

smitbro2 · 10-13-2014, 01:22 PM

Are they gonna ship bebop/rocksteady/cartoon turtle classics again? The 6" figures? I see preorders on bigbadtoystore but they're sold out. Says q4 2014. I'd love to get the remaining turtles I need and bebop/rocksteady without having to worry about getting a bootleg.

*turtlefanforever* · 10-13-2014, 05:09 PM

any news on the classic or "retro" monopoly release yet? was supposedly in September but didn't happen.

*The Fifth Turtle* · 10-13-2014, 09:35 PM

When's the Mondo First Turtle coming out??

Hakase · 10-15-2014, 11:19 PM

This maybe a stupid question, but whatever. Is a 1988 Turtle figure still considered a soft head, if it's made of rubber, but it's very hard to squish?

Yes, it would still be thought of as a soft head because the visible line on the plastic heads isn't there.

I have two Donatellos. Both don't have a visible lines. One does squish if press really really hard and the other one doesn't at all. Is this common with Donnies or nah ?

This may be the wrong place for this, but it's a toy question so thought I'd start here.

I'm currently rebuilding my OT collection from childhood and at the moment I'm trying to find the sewer lair and technodrome playsets.

I've done some research, but what do you think is a fair price for these (complete and in good condition)?

Also any good/bad experiences you've had with ebay sellers, or red flags I should look out for ( warning signs that I'm getting ripped off) would be highly appreciated.

Thanks!

So my wife picked up two Neca figs from 2008 in the cylinder style packaging. They also come in clam shell packages too.

My question is whats the difference besides the different packaging and which ones are harder to obtain...and why why why??

Thanks.

Thanks.

The originals from the spring of 2008 are the hardest to find. There were more accessories to the first offerings over the ones in the cylinder style packaging. That's one of the reasons why they are going for a lot on the black market. You got two figures, the turtles as they originally were and the turtles in present form. The comic book versions of the Turtles are worth more than the colored half shell heroes. I do not remember NECA rereleasing the comic book turtles in the cylinder style packaging. So, those are far more valuable than anything that came after them.

You're welcome.

Is this an official Mondo print? Or did the seller drop Mondo's name to gain views for the auction?

*Powder* · 10-31-2014, 11:09 PM

The latter, it seems. http://indierevolver.com/category/art/
