Leonardo Movie 1 costume restoration. LOOK - Page 2

TheShowstoppa · 03-23-2008, 02:57 AM

I'm sure I heard one (a Mikey circa movie 3) was donated to the Smithsonean along with a first printing of E&L TMNT. That was the most complete one I had seen prior to this one.

I think that looks amazing! I want to know who owns it to see if they'd be willing to part with it, because I think I'd sell my car, all my stuff, and my soul to get that costume.

I saw a segment on VH1 superfans about a TMNT fan who has a Leo head. Not sure which movie, or if it's a replica. Saw it like a year ago, so I can't remember details. Pretty interesting tho. That chick was a hardcore TMNT fan.

That would be IveyAngelo who owns Movie III Mikey and Leo's head. She is very well known on every TMNT board

yeah she has leo and mike and tons of other stuff. DO NOT BELIEVE THAT VH1 "Totally Obsessed" show; they purposely made her look like a wacko. She's not that bad. Obsessed yes, not wacko. Look up Fanatical on you tube, it features her and yours truely.

While I've not seen that show at all, I've known her for years (as I'm sure most of ye veterans are), and I can truly deny that she is wacko.

Comic and movie head in the museum? That's new to me.

Ya, I tend to take all of that with a grain of salt. I wasn't really paying attention to what they were saying about her, I was more in awe of that kind of dedication to TMNT.

Besides, shows like that are into sensationalism. They purposely make people seem as crazy as possible in order to get the viewers' attention. They could probably do a whole hour on all the crazy hobbies I have. lol.

And every fandom needs it's extremely dedicated fan.
And every character needs their extremely dedicated worshiper

Trust me I'm extremely dedicated it's been a huge part o almost every aspect of my life, everyone that knows me knows I love the TMNT just about as much as I love the Muppets.
You don't have to be crazy, beg people for things, or write an fics where you'r having sex with cartoon characters to be an extremely dedicated fan

Quite frankly I'm sick and tired of Turtle fans getting a bad wrap because everyone thinks we're crazy losers with no life.
I think the coolest thing about this site alone is that so many of us come from so many differnt walks of life.

OHHHHHHHHH I sooooooo agree with this.
TMNT is so universal we have such a fantastic variety of folks of all walks of life, it brings us all together to share one common interest.

Indeed, that's why I get aggravated when people bash the turtles no matter what universe it is.
We are all here for the TMNT and that's all that should matter not which one we thinks the best or which one we hate.
And hating on each other for enjoying one universe over the other has seriously become a huge pet peeve of mine.
I mean seriously how many times do we need the same people to say something sucks over and over again one maybe 2 times ok more than that seriously we get it shut up already.

Just wanted to bump this thread for people who didn't get to see this suite the first time I posted it. Here is a large closeup pic showing some more detail of the restoration that I found as well.

Very awesome, though the blue does look faded. Would be nice if they can restore that. Just add some dye.

TurtleGuy · 06-07-2009, 05:27 PM

That looks awesome. Man it would be cool to own a movie prop.

*Powder* · 06-07-2009, 06:12 PM

Im surprised none of you had seen this before! :p nonetheless, amazing is an understatement. Being that leo is my favorite, for me it'd get no better then that!

HissCommander · 06-07-2009, 08:21 PM

I would love to have me that TMNT suit! What an amazing piece of TMNT history that is!
