Wel if i could, i would gladlu pay 150$ for the Leonardo cold cast statue. But they wont ship international

~~PWDESAI~~ · 11-10-2002, 02:37 PM

sorry karp i woulda picked another up for ya, but it's too late now... if i see an extra and i have the money i'll sell it to ya, btw try ebay or mycomicshop.com or even milehighcomics.com they could possibly be selling it when it comes out

**Karpo_007** · 11-10-2002, 02:46 PM

When is that?

*Chris* · 11-10-2002, 02:53 PM

I think the Leo statue is due out some time this month Karpo, but that may have changed. At latest it will be out before X-Mas. I think you can get it internationally but not directly from the suppliers. My local comic store have said they'll try and get it from some people they know in America (but the price will be a bit higher).

**Karpo_007** · 11-10-2002, 02:56 PM

I hope that someone is willing to ship international.

~~PWDESAI~~ · 11-10-2002, 10:26 PM

i will keep a look out for you karpo, i can understand why you would want this so much, i know i do

next time, maybe if you send me the money in advance i could ask my comic shop store to order it, then i could send it to you. That's if you want any other turtles, and if no one else will sell em to you. I hate sending stuff when i don't need too, but i've known you for a long time karpo, and wouldn't mind doing so...

**Karpo_007** · 11-11-2002, 06:51 AM

Well Im really hoping to find a store that would send it. Afterall if it gets broken on the way i could get a new one.

~~PWDESAI~~ · 11-11-2002, 10:09 AM

well if you want insurance, then the post office has to buy you a new one.

**Karpo_007** · 11-11-2002, 01:21 PM

I think that some shop is willing to ship here. I will ask around when the time comes.

~~PWDESAI~~ · 11-11-2002, 02:15 PM

that's good

They're not a wholesaler, they sell to action figure collectors. They specialize in mint conidition figures and packaging.

Personally I could do with buying a case of the figures. I want two of each of them. One to play with, one to keep. I don't want more than one of the vehicles and stuff though.

After what I've heard about toys not exactly increasing in worth over the years, I'm not so sure I want to waste my money on a second one to take out of the package...of course, I'm only saying that because I don't have a job yet

~~PWDESAI~~ · 11-13-2002, 02:05 PM

what're you talking about, toys are extremely expensive over time. Look at the transformers, star wars, he-man, and gijoe. Look at mego or other old action dolls. It really depends on how popular the toy line or toy is...

TMNT should have a price increase after teh new show. I say wait 6 more years and they will get expensive.

MzTheInsomniac · 11-13-2002, 02:14 PM

yea right now the value is only 15 dollars but in a few years im sure they will be worht around 50 dollars, ok maybe not that much but we will see the worth increase

*Skeletoncrew* · 11-13-2002, 02:22 PM

I want the ones in the package for myself, not as some sort of "investment". I just have a thing for "unspoiled" stuff.

**azure turtle** · 11-13-2002, 07:21 PM

I love opening up action figs and putting them on display with their weapons/accessories. Though I do have a few I haven't opened, like my 1988 Donatello.

*Skeletoncrew* · 11-13-2002, 07:36 PM

I've got a couple Aprils, a movie star Splinter, and a Venus in their packages. Non-TMNT-wise I have a couple LOTR, all of the Army of Darkness 6" figs, an Italian Lisa Simpson, a Star Wars fig, and a Skeleton Warrior. Some I just haven't opened because I'm sort on display space and haven't gotten around to it.

**azure turtle** · 11-13-2002, 07:39 PM

Say, speaking of LOTR... I managed to get a Ring Wraith action figure on sale at a KB Toystore. It was only six dollars.

He stands on my shelf, holding a gigantic sword and gesturing with his other hand. He looks totally creepy, as if he walked right off the movie screen. I like him.

*Skeletoncrew* · 11-13-2002, 07:48 PM

Cool! Ringwraiths rock! I've got the one on the horse...its incredible! KB Toys also rules...I love their sales!
