BOOTLEG TMNT!!!

**GK Punk** · 03-17-2003, 03:39 AM

This may have been posted before, but I figured Id share it with you:

http://www.bootlegactionfigures.com/tmntindex.htm

(I actually won a contest at that site many years ago lol)

*Nickokapo* · 03-17-2003, 03:55 AM

Yah i saw that site before..heh, love the site, specially the karate splinter page

that figure owns.
Also there were so many toys there that i recognized from my collection

but not tmnt ones.
Well i guess when something gets really popular it gets bootlegged, over here i see it all the time, there's a lot of pokemon/dragonball z bootlegs, tmnt being another phenomem (sp?! >=P) i bet it got all kinds of bootleg merchandize too

There was another thread about this, here:

I forgot to mention the 3 tmnt figs i have are bootlegs, they're pretty much like the original ones except the paint job isnt that good and there is no copyright text in the foot of the figures.

I looked through my boxes today and found most of my Bootleg stuff.

Oh my good god you have a lot! I have two of the karate turtles, but both of them are splinter. :/

Stefano · 04-12-2003, 10:25 AM

so are these a copy of the turtles or a weird thing

**azure turtle** · 04-14-2003, 12:34 AM

Wow... You've got an impressive collection, TMNTGal! I didn't know so many bootleg figs existed.

*Nickokapo* · 04-14-2003, 09:26 AM

Ah, i assumed they did, and probably there's many more..
Believe me, when something gets overly popular there's a frickin' flood of bootleg stuff over here, it's happend with dragonball and pokemon.
Too bad i was too young to care all that much about collecting that stuff when the tmnt craze happend, but i do remember having a top with one of the tmnt's face in it (yes, a frickin' top!!) it had lights and stuff...i wish i still had it

but i think it broke.

TMNTGal · 04-14-2003, 05:05 PM

Yep, there are tons more Bootlegs out there. Even Knock off Frog figures made to resemble the TMNT. Those were really weird looking things.

*Brodie* · 04-14-2003, 10:05 PM

Hey, TMNTGal, could you do a close up pic of the knock offs in the box, and one in the bag?

mikemgmve · 05-10-2003, 01:58 PM

TMNTGal - WOW! the ones on the right, the 4 loose, in the white, red and black jackets, I USED TO HAVE those. I forgot all about them actually. I don't remember where or how I got them, but I DO remember playing with them, and owning them.

For some reason I think they were on a birthday cake or something when I was little....
