eastlos217 · 03-03-2015, 01:47 AM

Hey guys, im looking for some 89-93 prototypes, if anyone has any, please let me know . thank you =)

I may be wrong, but I don't think there are any around. The only person I know having some prototypes of one of the first figures is Peter Laird. He posted a couple photos on his blog years ago.

yea, but I know some of them leaked out. or taken was a better word to use. I was just wondering if anyone here had any. the sculpting studio has most of them, they display them at SDCC every year.

I've seen a handful of different collectors who have some, so while there may not be many, there's definitely a bunch out there. I don't think one will be easy to get a hold of, so good luck!

really? which ones have you seen? and yea I know, they are so hard to come by

Well, at the very least, I know one fella who owns Scratch, Casey Jones, & Pizzaface. Others, I can't recall who owns 'em, but I think I've seen the never-released Wizard Splinter in someone's collection, as well as some random turtle variants. Not sure what else, I see so much turtle stuff on a daily basis it can be hard to remember.

I would be interested in the turtle variants and the splinter spellcaster =) hope you remember who had them

*Powder* · 03-04-2015, 10:48 PM

There's no chance that I will, sorry. But I think someone had made a thread in the toy section who owned them (or similar items) so perhaps you could use the forum's search function to track down threads about these kinda pieces. Maybe it'd yield good results.

I owned the Spellcaster Splinter for a short time many years ago. Not sure who owns it now.

That's a bit... excessive. A very early prototype of the first wave TMNT sold for a little over $2K just a few years ago.
