Reluctantly selling part of my collection

I recently resigned my position because the company was violating federal laws. Asked me to forge documents so it looked proper on paper, to which I refused. They gave me a settlement as to not press charges and sign a confidential agreement. It was all rather sketchy.

Long story short....I am selling about anything I have. The only items I would not want to part with are my "one of's" (Scratch, Shogun Triceraton and Shoate).

I do have a partial hot spot, as well as numerous other "in demand" figures.

Some notable items would be a complete, never played with, mint Toon Set (all toon figures. Adult owned. Brand new off card). See movie stars for reference of toon conditions.

The only market I *know* is figures. The rest of this stuff I have seen only once or twice, but mostly once. Please send OFFERS on the items. I do not know how to price them.

The clothing in particular I really wanted my children to wear so I am posting them, but not sure if I can let them go. They can be bought, but I cannot price them.

I am sorry you're in the position you are in, that really sucks.
Not saying to turn narc, but cover your ass man.
If they are violating federal laws , depending on what it is, they are probably going to get caught sooner or later. And your settlement and confidentiality agreement sounds a bit more like a bribe and a payout that is only punctuated by your signature (which again depending on the crime) could count as conspiracy which could be used against you. There are protections in the form of whistle blower laws. Best of luck.

Yeah taking a bribe will still bring you down when they get caught. Probably wasnt the best idea.

This is not all. Just a fraction of my basement.

Don the Dracula is a UK release with Knight Mike portrayed on the back. He was never released and just featured a prototype headshot.

I don't suppose there's a snowballs chance in hell you'd be willing to scan some of those children's clothing items to archive their art, is there?

Always man. I would never deprive the TMNT community. I am, however, unfamiliar with how I would do this?

If you can tell me how to do this I will gladly assist.

Just using a scanner? I feel like the quality loss would be huge.

Will also trade items for diapers/baby food/wipes or other necessities for mommy and baby. If you get a good deal on diapers than you could trade me them for toys. Just a completely random option!

Baby is size 1 approaching size 2. Right now we are paying $0.19 per diaper, which adds up at how much she soils them! Here is my April and my turtle girl.

Awesome! Yeah man, just a scanner. If you scan into microsoft paint or something at 300 DPI it should look fairly nice! If you can't get the hang of that, just take clear, well-lit photos of the images dead center, & I can clean them up in photoshop. It'd be most appreciated! We can then redistribute these images to the turtle community. PS- your baby girl is adorable.

Thanks, she is darling.

I will take them to my folks house tomorrow and attempt to scan them. I am not sure how nice the scanner is, but it should be good. I know he has a Brother MFC 9840.

Color/Mono Color
Resolution Optical (Max.) 1200 x 2400 dpi (from Glass)
Interpolated (Max.) 19,200 x 19,200 dpi
Duplex Scan Yes *4
Grayscale Levels 256

If you have any tips on scanning these properly let me know. Should it be stretched with cardboard inside? Should I lay the lid down or up? Should I provide light from the outside or just allow the scanner to work?

I will scan at the highest settings it allows.

Ah, that's great. If you scan them at the fullest resolution the files would likely be way too large to upload/email/etc, plus they'd probably worse off as it would pick up all the little fibers & whatnot. I'd suggest 300-500, somewhere around there. You will probably be able to just lay them flat onto the surface & scan them as is with the lid down. I don't think cardboard would be necessary, but if they put up a fight, that'd be a good resource to make use of. Anything too big to fit you could just properly photograph, I suppose. Thanks, man!

Hey everyone. Would love to start shipping items this week. I have several parties interested in the toons and movie stars - I would really appreciate people sending me some offer prices.

The loose figures and accessories are available as a single lot, or in smaller lots.
