Hey, spare some sympathy for those of us who are waiting even longer for ours to arrive due to international shipping! Can't wait to get my hands on this thing...

That is awesome, he should love it!

My missus told me last night that she's ordered me a copy!!! Problem is it won't get delivered till Monday and i'm goin home on Sunday

[TheBlueTurtle1]

So um...

Spoiler:

This is the first I've seen about a potential 2K3 Slash outside of Mutant Hun. Was this one of the "TMNT Ultimate" pitches or what?

EDIT: Looking it over again, it looks like maybe that was an early plot and design for Hun and Turtles Forever? The third panel clearly shows the new, upgraded Foot Soldiers

Just ordered it from Amazon. Should be here Monday.

I just got mine from Amazon today (in great condition too). WOW...what an amazing book. Well worth the price...everyone needs this!! I can't wait to sit down and read it...and it should take a while too. I plan on getting the reproduction of #1 signed by E&L as well

I have to wait for mine. I ordered from Chapters.ca in Canada only because they offered a double the membership discount for a 3 day bit last week. Since Chapters.ca and Amazon.ca always compete withe the same price for books this made it a no brainer to order. I ordered 6 books and they were all stated as "in stock". Yet guess which book I won't be getting with the other 5 already shipped? Yep the TMNT Visual History. Apparently not til start of August for that one which is weird when its already out or "in stock".

I got mine yesterday. finally came from Barnes and Noble, this really is an awesome book! Im gonna try to find a decent frame to put the poster in

[pennydreadful]

I'm supposed to have mine by the end of the week; I will be checking the mailbox impatiently every day!

I ordered mine yesterday (June 28th) through Amazon and the expected delivery date is between July 3rd-July 9th. I chose the 5-8 day free shipping option because I had an order over $35. I'll mostly likely get it sooner than later. I ordered two NECA April O'Neil figures from Amazon recently and chose the same option and they were delivered in just a few days. I can't wait to get this book. It's going to be a huge part of my childhood in a single book haha.

I have my copy!!! WOOHOO!
It really is an amazing book. Iv'e had to stop myself from reading it in one go lol. Was late for work this morning cus i couldn't stop
The copy of #1 is a really cool extra too. Especialy if like me, you've never read it before

[Andrew Farago]

I'm printing this up as a bookplate very soon, and will announce it here once I know how much they'll cost me and when I'll be making them available for purchase:

[TheBlueTurtle1]

[MiBs]

Just got my copy today. What an amazing book!

Spoiler:

Better late than never - to pick up on my question from 5 or 6 pages back(!)
Where does the picture below from near the start of the book originate from? I know I've seen it before but can't work out where!

That's from the Archies Series comics, When the Turtles participated in an intergalactic wrestling competition.

So has that painting actually appeared in the Archie comics then? Or the collected books? When/what issue was it first printed? It doesn't look like an Archie cover (I certainly don't recall any wrap-around covers)
