Blast From the Past (and Future!)

**Kali** · 06-15-2002, 03:05 PM

Below is a link to Peter Laird's latest "Blast From the Past". (Fans of CowBoys of Moo Mesa should really check it out.) But this one isn't just from the past, but the future as well!

He's giving us a sneak peak as to what the Leonardo statue (you know, those cold cast ones for $99 everyone's talking about) will look like. Too sweet!

Oh wow! The Leonardo statue is gonna look awesome! Now I've got to rethink buying those things...
*sigh*
And hey, I thought I'd never see one of the turtles hanging out with one of the CowBoys of Moo Mesa.

**Kali** · 06-15-2002, 10:41 PM

I know. Somewhere... *searches for link* Ah ha!

Laird says they're gonna be like a foot tall. Well worth the $99.

Loolaa · 06-16-2002, 01:20 AM

... That is *so* cool. I must have it. I must have them all!

*starts to look for somewhere to display statues*

SeaThreePeeO · 06-16-2002, 12:47 PM

I personally think the paint brush just adds that finishing touch

Am I reading right? A foot tall?

Curse shipping, tax and excise!

**Kali** · 06-16-2002, 02:07 PM

"Each Turtle will stand about a foot high, I believe (though I could be off on that measurement)" - Laird.

Sounds like they're going to be rather tall at least. *squeal* I want one! I don't care what my roommates say.

oh man oh man oh man! i so cant wait!i am still fuzzy on how to purchase them tho, like they will be sold out in no time prolly, and i dun really wanna goto san diego to get them

06-22-2002, 06:18 PM

Well if anyone online actually buys onnna them, we gotta get pics

**HorseTechie** · 06-24-2002, 06:01 PM

*still wonders if some scalpers will sell em for less on eBay*

**azure turtle** · 06-24-2002, 11:58 PM

They might end up selling it for much more!

Okay, I'm suddenly rethinking my position on buying these statues.

**azure turtle** · 07-11-2002, 07:53 PM

I saw those earlier!! Wow, the statue looks awesome with the paint and the actual katana! Argh...now I really want one, too.

**Nturtle** · 07-11-2002, 08:04 PM

hmm if I sold enough ventiator lint I could maybe rack up .75¢ but that still is a little low

miss mab · 07-12-2002, 01:21 PM

Bah. There goes food for a month. TMNT figure here I come! :D

Where will they be selling these? Perhaps I can pester people into ordering reserve. X3

Must...have...Michaelangelo...even if it means....selling plasma.... @_@

**Kali** · 07-12-2002, 01:41 PM

Well, I know they're selling Leo (or at least having orders filled) at SanD. I'm not sure exactly how one would get the others when they come out.

**azure turtle** · 07-12-2002, 06:18 PM

Dan mentioned at the official site that they're trying to figure out a way for people to order via the website. I remember him mentioning this because he said that not everyone will be able to attend San D. I hope they find a way for us to purchase them...
*sigh*

*Nickokapo* · 07-18-2002, 09:03 PM

ohhh don with moo montana

that's awesome, i really like cowboys of moo mesa..

*R-iZZy* · 07-18-2002, 10:11 PM

how many figures will there be for each turtle?

*Nickokapo* · 07-18-2002, 10:14 PM

i don't know...i thought there would be one figure for each turtle.

**azure turtle** · 07-18-2002, 11:25 PM

I believe you're right, Nicko. The last turtle figure should be made available in 2003, I think. Wouldn't 2004 mark the twentieth anniversary of the turtles? I can't remember if they were created in '84 or 83.
