Are the two original artist pretty cool with signing items and toys? I've seen them a lot of eBay, "signed merchandise".

Do you mean Eastman and Laird? If so, yeah they're awesome! I don't know about catching them out in public. But if they're at a convention or something they're great for signing and sketching stuff.

Thats pretty awesome, just heard about outer artists being assholish to their fan base. Its great to hear these guys are down to earth.

It's crazy watching the bidding wars on eBay here lately.

I've watched a NIB Blimp sell for $600, NIB Technodrome sell for over $600, NIB Sewer sell for $300. There's a Scratch going for $600 and has a day left.

Aside from the items being overpriced, what are you unsure of?

I haven't seen any turtle wagon remake in person, but the grafics on the outside (check the rest of the pics) don't look right to me.

The Krang doesn't have the 25th anniversary logo like the turtles I've got...

The Party Wagon & 1988 figures have both been remade twice in the last few years. These are not 25th anniversary versions, they're "Classic Collection" edition, which are for the 30th anniversary. Totally legit items found exclusively at TRU.

Oh, thanks for enlightening!
I thought the 25th anniversary was the only remake done.
My lack of knowledge then

Have you guys seen this one? Pretty good price considering what's there. The Sewer Sports balls look to be in good condition. If I wasn't focusing on other areas I would pick it up. Hope one of you do.

On ebay, where do these people get their prices from, referring to the "graded" items.

Also very tired of seeing every item listed as rare, its beyond annoying.

some of them area actually graded by professionals but most our just the sellers opinion of the grade based on no fact or evidence to support it. i don't pay attention to seller "grades".

and i laughed at the RARE comment haha so true...

For comics there's a website called GPAnalysis which keeps track of the fair market value of graded comics (ie. selling prices on various auction sites.)
For non-graded, it's best to disregard the seller's grade and just make your own judgment based on the pictures. Usually, for comics at least, I won't bid if I can't see the back cover, or if the pictures are cropped or crappy.

I don't know if there's a similar website for graded figures' selling prices.

Sounds like the seller follows footballorangeguy. There are no rubber storage shell figures.

LOL, was just ready to post almost the same thing.
On a side note I went and looked at the description, longest seller description/bio I have ever read on ebay.
