If he could 3 out of five right, he should be able to get ALL of them right. Not to mention the picture that goes with the auction has 2 info cards from the figures...

Well, as someone teased me about being a horse nut... why do they want to be a turtle testicle?

*shuts up before she jepardizes her mod position*

But anyway.. does it bug anyone else when Leo is called "Leon"and Mikey is called "Mick" too...?

Krangfan · 03-14-2003, 07:13 PM

I've never heard Leo called Leon and Mikey called Mick, just Raph called Ralph.

**HorseTechie** · 03-14-2003, 07:31 PM

A news reporter in Image called Leo that. It drove him nuts too!

But then I knew a Archie TMNT fan who insisted on called Leo "Leon". That has to be the worse.

I heard leo called leon before, once or twice, but never mikey called mick

what amazes me is that half of the people on ebay are selling the TMNT with their cards, and the cards say their freakin' names right on them!!!!

Just for the record:
We're fussing over some improper name-usage of TMNT characters because of why again?

Sure, it's a silly bit with the auctioners getting the name wrong even with the info. card. But hey, everyone makes mistakes right? Just try not to be so harsh guys. (Besides, even some cartoons get their characters' names wrong on the show...case in point: Transformers: Armada...we won't even get into that).

Sorry if I offend anyone in advance.

Krangfan · 03-14-2003, 10:05 PM

ugh, the Transformers Armada name mistakes *shutters* but I don't think we're really fussing, more like just thinking it's funny what people call some of the figures.

*Eye of Sarnath* · 03-14-2003, 10:08 PM

We're fussing about because we have a lot of free time on our hands, and nothing better to do. We could be arguing about stranger things...

Got you loud and clear Sarnath

But still, "thinking it's funny" about the auctioners is like some superbrainers thinking "it's funny" how less-educated people don't know things like....quantum physics.

Kinda wrong , but again, it's my personal opinion.

*Eye of Sarnath* · 03-14-2003, 11:03 PM

Well... they DO own the TMNT stuff, you think they'd know. I mean, if you don't like the TMNT, you don't own any TMNT products. If you do, then you have enough action figures to start your own toy store. So, if you like the TMNT, then you should know better than to call them 'Ralph' or whatever.

Yeah... I should prolly be sleeping... resting up for the awesomeness that will be tomorrow's TMNT episode.

Ooh, SC, I heard a perfect theme song for you on the radio. "Her favorite color is Chrome!"

*Skeletoncrew* · 03-15-2003, 12:52 AM

I must admit to a certain fondness for Billy Joel's "The Stranger" and the line about how we all wear masks "Some are satin some are steel some are silk and some are leather".

Oh, and back to the topic at hand, sometimes you can get the best deals on poorly listed auctions. I got a mint carded NM Splinter for $1.00 because it was just listed as "Master Splinter" and apparently no one bothered to look into it. Of course, it takes time to go through all those auction listings.

Anyone really care about this?
