I actually had commissioned him to draw me an usagi vs shredder with Leo as well. It was actually the first time he ever drew Shredder and he actually used the super shredder as reference and looks amazing. It’s one of my most prized possessions.

Pic? Sounds bad ass

Yeah. I’d kill for an entire line with Gen, Jei, and more. Neca wouldn’t do it but someone like Super 7 might.

Who knows, we may get another cartoon outside of the one already announced on Netflix that’s more “classic” usagi.

Here you go. I just told him " I want Usagi to go up against shredder" and he sketched out the rest, sent me prelims to see if I approved (Like I am going to art direct Stan HA).

It is up on my wall with the rest of my original TMNT art from Eastman (Raph sketch and the original cover), Laird Head sketch), and some original art pages of the IDW comic by Dan Duncan.

Stan Sakai’s Shredder reminds me a lot of Super Shredder. Neat photo, King Khan.

If you can explain to me how to put those pics up here I will share the work he has done for me as well. The Gen he done for me is absolutely amazing.

Happy to help!

I think 2 is all they got at that location. And I dont think they got any Krangs but I did find one at the New Berlin location.

Its crazy how fast these things disappear. I must have got that at the perfect timing. All 7 of the remaining Baxter Stockman The Fly and Splinter 2 packs were gone today just two days later.

Someone on FB posted my target location had the Baxter and krang Christmas Eve at 930 am. By 1130 am, they were all gone. The picture shows five of each. It's no wonder I can't find these locally.

it's not scalpers that are buying them all, it's this CHC group....no one is listening

A large number of collectors vs limited supply is definitely part of the problem.

seriously....whats the difference between a "group" of collectors clearing out shelves and a scalper....

Many times not much. That said, if it is scalpers they will keep clearing out every time a restock comes. Once collectors have what they want they usually leave the rest for the next person. So if it is scalpers collectors that can't get there first will never see it. If it is fellow collectors there is a chance with multiple restocks you will be able to get one. That said I wish they would just start doing preorders for all of the TMNT.

like I said, I know a certain "group" that literally drives around on a daily basis and clears out the shelves for other collectors....I dunno, something about that just doesn't sit right with me. I'm not a scalper, nor do I choose to be a part of this "group", so i guess I'm just SOL when I look for these figures

Because collector's don't tend to endlessly buy up supply. Collectors don't buy up supply endlessly even if they buy multiples or even buy multiples across a few occasions for whatever reason. But they don't arbitrarily buy out supply. Meaning that even if other collectors had to wait, it's likely the wait would be short and even more likely that you'll get what you came for off the store shelves for the appropriate price.

Scalpers buy up supply immediately as inventory because current ownership of an item doesn't satiate their need to purchase. Therefore real collectors have to wait longer with risk of never getting an item because scalpers hoard them in quantity. There is additional risk that a real collectors also now has to find a market of exaggerated pricing for an item while the item otherwise should have had a shelf life.

Seriously, you needed someone to explain this to you?
