Good luck with this one, it's gonna be tough to get him at this point and not end up paying that 250.00 for him on ebay.

You seem very knowlegable with turtles do you know why he is so much more expensive then the other 3 who seem to sell for about $85 each.

I agree with Vaughn. The thing about the collectors market is that, as long as there is someone out there willing to pay 250.00, then you will never get one if you are not willing to pay that price. People will always sell to the person that is willing to pay the most (and you cant really blame them). So really, for figures that are that rare, you either got to bite the bullet and pay the high price, or wait until everyone who is willing to pay the high price has already got one.

Yeah I know quite a bit, but I think it mostly has to do with the fact that I was an older collector at the time the figures came out than most of the people around here.
The other person who knows the most about stuff like this is TMNTGal but she's not on very often.
My belief as to why Undercover Leonardo is harder to get than the other 3 is because Raph, Mike, & don came out in the collector card period and saw a release in many stores at the time like k-mart, toys r us, kbtoys, hills, & wal-mart.
With Undercover Leonardo he came about a little bit later with a collector card and coin and I only ever saw him released at kb toy stores.
Most people don't realize he has a collector card because it's placed behind the figure.

EDIT: Wow also I've never seen a undercover leonardo with the card right up front with the coin.
Man I wish I could have got my hands on that so I could have photographed it and archived it.

Looks like he is missing quite a bit of his red lacquer, but it could just be the photo. At any rate, you were just fortunate enough to find someone who had no idea what the hell they were doing
